I’ve just moved my Habari powered blog away from NearlyFreeSpeech.net to SliceHost, if everything works as planned you shouldn’t have noticed anything at all.

The reasons for my move

• One login to rule them all, NFS lets you host as many domains as you want - but you get a separate user for each and every one of them
• Be my own dictator, SH is a VPS host - ie. they let you build your own server from scratch. Demands more of you, but gives unlimited (depending on resource usage that is) freedom in return.
• Reverse Squid proxy, Squid is a cache demon to lower the load of the servers and to serve pages faster. But with rapid updates/editing it didn’t server the latest revision of the page.

Why I didn’t move

• NFS is as cheap as it gets, you literary pay pocket lint to host with them - pay for what you use.
• World class support and responsiveness - if you want some obscure Perl module installed, all you have to ask and you’ll receive (unless it breaks the system).
