Blogging on the Grid
March 1, 2007
The only thing holding me back from upgrading to MediaTemple's grid service (from the deprecated shared-server) was that the price would have quadrupled for roughly the same hosting service. I finally emailed one of their support people who informed me that I could upgrade to a (gs) lite account, keeping my current price and still getting on to the grid service. Since you can't just buy into a (gs) lite account as a new user, it's not advertised anywhere (even to current customers) until you're in the process of upgrading.
Anyway, it seems as though everything went well although there was one mistake with some paths in Movable Type that weren't converted properly and dynamic page building was disabled for a couple hours. I get about 3 visitors a day here since I've let this blog languish so I'm really not worried.
See you in another 4 months!
