This night, the fluffies site will be offline for one-two hours. (If everything goes ok) I will try to plan the downtime when there aren't many visitors online so I hope not many people will experience any downtime?

Also, as you have noticed it isn't possible to edit your diary/ homepage at this time. This is because we're in the process of migrating the website.

Hey there! An update: The website has been migrated to the new server. Only, it takes up to 72 hours (usually shorter) for all the dns servers in the world to propagate. Sad
When I type www.fluffies.org, it goes very well. My dns server has been updated. Smile
For those people for who the site appears slow: This should not last more than 60 hours from now!

The reason why it could be slow is that the structure on the old server points to the database on the new server.
If you open a page in your browser, it'll go to the structure of the old server, to the database on the new server, back to the structure on the old server, and to your computer.
If your dns server has been propagated, you'll skip the old server. Smile

I hope this does make sense to you?

Wha ha ha! I think it sounds funny! I always think of a computer geek and then I picture a man, slender with glasses. Smile

Come on! Get that short hair and glasses! (Just kidding, don't go cutting your hair like I did!)

I noticed you know quite a bit (a lot) about computers! Smile

You know I did that once... cut my hair off that is.. when I was really really young... it went from like almost waist length to like a really really short bob style of haircut.. it was drastic!! than I decided that that bob wasn't for me.. so I cut it to a guy's length.. you know really short!!

Now I probably wouldn't do it unless I am doing for a good cause.. like fundraiser or something.. My hair grow quite quickly anyway, so it would be ok.. not sure how Hubby's would feel aobut it though. hehe

Computers yes.. well when you're married to a computer geek you tend to learn from that.. I do love computer though. Very Happy

Oh my! That short! WOW! I never had it THAT short, well, only when I was a baby: I was bald! Laughing

I think your hubby wouldn't be pleased? Most men like long hair. (They don't have to shampoo it, brush it etc LOL!)

You're married to a computer geek?! Smile Is it his job?
