in So You Want to Host My Servers? 8 Requirements for a Data Center on Technosailor
Great post - and some key considerations here.
I'm a big fan of redundancy and having remote access into the KVM along with remote reboot capabilities. Makes things a hell of alot easier in the long run to be able to take care of those things..
I've been with the same hosting company for 3 years now and can't complain. I had done the colocation thing for 3 years when we were based out in Boston and enjoyed that as well. At least there in a worst case scenerio, I could drive up to Boston and reboot the damn things myself!

My point here is that there's no need to be an ass about things. Some of the comments I've seen are flat out of line.
People are going to be critical - and that's fine, everyone is entitled to their opinion.
But keep in mind what these folks have gone through and respond accordingly.

I highly recommend two places:
Buena Vista - the birthplace of Irish Coffee. Mmmm. Down by fisherman's wharf.
Scoma's - one of the best seafood places on the West Coast. Right at Fisherman's wharf. Reservations recommended.
Can't wait to see the coverage!

Mike, thanks for the props - wasn't expecting that, but thanks again :) I do hope Round IV goes well.
Craig, sorry that you feel things have gone downhill and that you've unsubscribed, I hope to win you back in the near future.
Aaron, well written post and good assessment. I do think there's a direct correlation between the number of posts (and timing of the posts) vs our traffic since February. We were on an upward trend in Feb/March when we had multiple bloggers on the site - since it was just me after early April and I post longer, but less pieces, our traffic has dropped.
There are several other factors at play but not any that I'm willing to discuss publicly - I do, however, have confidence that we're on the right track and have several new things we should be veiling in the next few weeks.
Progress is good. ;)
In any event, thanks again for the well written critcisms ;)

We all have different passions - I think the move that we made was the best for all of us.
I look forward to working with you on the server move when the time comes.
