Hello everyone! I hope you all had a very happy holiday and I would like to welcome you back to TechnicalCafe.com!

As you may already know, TechnicalCafe.com has recently been moved from WordPress.com’s hosting service to GoDaddy’s hosting service. The reason for this is because a self-hosted WordPress blog provides more options than are available on the free WordPress.com hosting service.

While WordPress.com provided a great hosting service with many fantastic features, users are not able to upload or use their own custom themes, plug-ins, or widgets. Now that TechnicalCafe.com is being hosted on it’s own webspace, we can choose what we would like to add or remove. Also, we are now able to place and run scripts and such on the website, which may come in handy, should we want to use a web statistics or analytics service.

Due to switching hosting providers, you may have noticed that some features may be missing or different, so please feel free to leave a comment below or use the Contact page let me know what you think and if you would like to see something new or different!

Also, if you would like to view the WordPress.com hosted version of TechnicalCafe.com, you can do so by going to technicalcafe1.wordpress.com. However, new posts and updates that are posted here may not be added as frequently to this version of the website.

I have prepaid for GoDaddy’s WordPress Economy hosting plan for one year, which includes 10 GB of disk space and unlimited bandwidth, so we should have plenty of time and space to test this service out and continue to improve TechnicalCafe.

As for posting recently, I apologize for not having a new post up for the last week or two, but I would like to have at least a couple of new posts out a week and perhaps a video every now and then.

I would like to thank everyone for visiting TechnicalCafe.com and for helping to make it a resource for a variety of different technology topics. If you have any questions, comments, suggestions, or perhaps a technical support question, please feel free to use the Contact page to send me an e-mail!

Also, you can follow TechnicalCafe on Twitter (@TechnicalCafe) for links to the latest posts, as well as for website updates and information and, if you’d like, you can follow me on Twitter (@Jamiemcg) for the latest updates on what I am up to, as well.

Thank you,

Jamie McGibbon
