New main server

We've just changed the main web server. The new one has 8 times more cores ("processors") and 8 times more memory. This new server is at http://www.rimuhosting.com's datacenter in Dallas which allows flexible solutions for future growth. We wanted to do this upgrade before proper advertisements take place.

The DNS timeout was set to 1 hour a while back so hopefully there will be at most 1 hour of downtime for you.

Sorry for any convenience this have caused, and please report any issues this new server might have.

Best regards,
Marcus

I just saw an news release about a trade show show in as Vegas in April. P5 is one of the booths and they at talking about Pond5=version 2 so it must be close ;). I was hoping with the downtime last night we would wake up to a grand announcement, I think we're pretty close now ;)

That's exciting stuff...congrats to all of the Pond5 folks. I have been kicking around the idea of going to NAB this year...maybe I'll see you there.

P.S. It's nice you are so close to Blackmagic Designs...should bring some good traffic your way.
