First of all, on a personal note, thanks for all your wonderful comments to me. There are way too many to try to respond to individually, so here's a group hug.

You may or may not have noticed that the site crashed this morning. It happened early in the morning while I was still in bed, so I assume that this is when all you lovely people on the U.S. east coast are up with your coffee, checking in first thing before starting the day. It's the same time of day that the site crashed less than a month ago. I've come to the conclusion that the site is starting to experience some growing pains that should be addressed sooner rather than later. Hey, there are over 162,000 entries on Prosebox now... not too shabby!

I am scheduling maintenance for 10PM MST (12AM EST) tonight. At this time I will attempt to move the database to its own machine (or VM if you want to get technical). I'm fairly confident that this will happen quickly and successfully, but the site will be down for at least a few minutes so that this can happen. So be sure and save anything before this time.

And for those of you coming from a previous website that many of us knew and loved, NO IT WILL NOT TAKE A WEEK.

:)
