Server Fund Drive - Imagineering INTERCOT!

[John]

Hey John, just curious how the install of the new server is going? I know a while ago you had said maybe in June, I know it could be later if things don't go right.

Also just wondering if you run Intercot out of your home or do you have an office somewhere?

The server is here and sitting in my home office. Looking at July now honestly. Though the good news is that we use the exact same server where I work during the day (yes, ICOT is my OTHER job) and things went pretty darn well recently when I brought that one online. It's super fast and the one ICOT has is even better with more memory. So, look for good things soon.

As far as where the site is run - it's in a datacenter near where my house is. The business of the site is run however all over the globe - wherever our moderators are and staff are located. For me - anywhere that has an internet connection.

There is no INTERCOT office per say other than my home office. We're not quite that big... YET!

When you go offline for the switch, will there be advance warning?

Doubt it. This is a "when I have time to do it" sort of thing - and that doesn't lend itself well to advance notice. The site shouldn't be offline long.

Wait isn't the Intercot office the white room with pads on the walls they send me everyday and I have to dress in that funny white coat that ties in the back
