I feel like an expectant Father

I haven’t made a post in a couple of days and I am dying to make one. I found this opportunity to do so as I need to update everyone on a URL change.

I decided to move my Blog to its own domain so it could run smoother and maintenance would be simpler. As it is I have two websites and an Arcade on my current host and the resources are getting a tad skimpy.

As some of you may know, you order a domain name, then you get the service you want and then the waiting game commences. Your domain name stored by Domain Name Servers (DNS) which have to propagate all over the world. When someone types in your URL it finds your domain easily. This as they say can take 24 to 72 hours.

So I have been working around the house, chomping at the bit waiting to access my new digs and get the blog transferred. I have seen it happen before in about 2-3 hours but that was long ago in a galaxy far away. So I go wash dishes, then check the DNS servers. I go weed eat the yard, then check the DNS servers. I watch TV, then check the DNS servers. I’m beginning to think that a watched domain never registers, just like a watched pot never boils as they say.

I’m sure it will kick in here soon. I have had it take 24 hours and I think I am nearing the 24 hour mark before long. I’ll make it or I’ll just have to take some medication and start learning to knit.

Anyway if any of you stop by here and my redirect doesn’t work properly when I get things transferred, The new URL will be http://www.rons-country.com or just rons-country.com  Anyone coming there from the Forum will get the proper URL by clicking on the Blog link there then you can save it or edit your current bookmark.

Here’s hoping for DNS propagation by tomorrow!

Comments welcome.
