Moving to a new server - Done!

Over the weekend I finally moved the site to a new server. Hopefully while all the action was going on you saw nothing.

Why did I need a new server?

As much as I like mediatemple, they decided to discontinue one of the products I was using (Django Grid Container), so I took the plunge and got my own server... Well a VPS (Virtual Private Server) anyway, but it's still mine!

They key reason I had to change so quickly was because my main sites, and a few up coming ones, use Django.

As a bonus, that means I can be much more targeted in my web development and taylor the server to each project individually. Since it's no longer running as a shared server, the speeds should be faster too.
