So Here’s What Happened

At its core, a website such as this (a blog) is generated from three sets of files — a database that holds all the content, some template files that manage the layout, and some code files that fill the layout with the content when a reader clicks on the site. I guess somewhere in those files for NewMexiKen there was a bug, because late Wednesday I used up more than my allotted share of the server (for the third time) and the company that hosts the site shut me down. (It surely wasn’t due to too much traffic.)

For the past two days then I have been scrambling to find a suitable landing place and then getting the unresponsive former provider to redirect the URL newmexiken.com to the new server. They made the switch overnight last night (early Saturday morning).

And so I am back, but in a limited way — I don’t have to worry about any bugs, but I can’t do much with the look and I can’t restore the archives.

So I’ll just blog here while I figure out what I want to do.

  1. I never realize until you don’t post for a day or two… but NewMexiKen is probably one of my most-read blogs.

    And the only non-politically oriented blog I read, to be honest.
