A new lease on life

I’m very pleased to announce that I’ve made the switch from shared hosting to my own virtual private server running Ubuntu Linux, courtesy of the folks at Slicehost. Dreamhost has been good to me, but I’ve reached the point where I want complete control over my production machine, not to mention better performance. I’m now serving benlog using a simple Lighttpd + Mongrel server combination I put together last night, and the difference is night and day.
