Site News – Big Changes Coming Soon

If everything goes according to plan, there will be big changes coming to this site by the end of this month.

After being the only owner since the early days of the interwebs – 1996 if memory serves – I am selling the broadsword.com domain to a new business startup. It wasn’t an easy decision, and there will be a lot of work involved, but they made me an offer I couldn’t refuse.

After many years of enduring endless and irritating “I want the broadsword.com domain but I can’t pay much.” emails (and a few serious buyers) this new offer just came about in the last week or so. So there will be something of a scramble as I rush to get everything moved to its new home, updated and working properly again. Don’t be surprised to see major disruptions in site functionality, “work in progress” notices, and other mayhem over the next couple of weeks.

I hope to have this blog URL redirected for a short period of time, but that may not happen. When the big change hits, you’ll need to update your bookmarks to this blog, as well as update your RSS/email subscriptions. After the recent changes to those (after Feedburner finally croaked) I know that subscribers have already gone through a similar change very recently, and for that I apologize! Hopefully this will be the first and last time the site moves. I hope you’ll stick with me and that the move will eventually result in a better experience too.

I’ll post more details, like the new site URLs, when they are available.

Please stay tuned.
