Transfer to the new server was successful
I’m happy to announce that the transfer to the new server was successful. We tried to keep the downtime to a minimum by reducing the TTL of the Nameserver to a bare minimum.

Ghacks is moving servers
Ghacks is running on the same dedicated server for almost two years and I decided that it is time for a change and rent a faster rootserver and move all the domains and files from the old to the new server.

Upgrading to WordPress 2.3
I finally made the switch to Wordpress 2.3 after pondering for a little while if I should upgrade this early or wait until I was sure that everything would be still working after the switch. The major problem that I saw was the new tagging system that was build into Wordpress 2.3 which was incompatible with the tagging system of the prior versions and especially with the plugin that I have been using for over a year: Simple Tagging.

Ghacks Two Year Anniversary
What began as a blog to promote a software that a friend of mine has written turned to be into something bigger – much bigger. I never thought about the possibility to make a living from blogging in the beginning but I can tell you that much: it is possible to do that.

Group Project: The Ultimate Tech Blog Listing
How many good tech blogs are out there ? What would you guess ? I’m always astonished to discover a new blog that I never heard before only to realize that I must have living behind the moon to not know it. This happens quite frequently and I add new blogs daily to my ever expanding list of feeds in Netvibes.
