+After many years of (good) service, I'm in the process of moving from [Dreamhost web hosting](http://www.dreamhost.com) to a Virtual Private Server (VPS) service hosted [by the folks at Linode](http://www.linode.com). It's definitely more pricey but I like the control and freedom that I have at my disposal. Thanks to a [number of guides](http://library.linode.com) and [some help](https://twitter.com/jol1hahn), I was able to set up lighttpd and php-fpm to serve web pages, and Postfix+dovecot+amavisd-new for email.

+I haven't moved off a few services yet (including my primary mail), but I'm rather satisfied at the moment.

+Let me know if you encounter any issues with this blog, although it should have moved painlessly (hopefully!).
