CONSOLIDATION OF POWER

Bookmark this: www.briankeene.com

From now on, that's your one, single stop. The blog entries are moving there. The new message board is there (and you really should sign up, because it's just like the old board). Everything is moving there.

If you're reading this on Hail Saten, this is the last post. See you at BrianKeene.com.

If you're reading this on MySpace, this is the last Blog entry of its kind. From now on, the MySpace Blog will include the occasional book announcement, but that will be about it.  Although I'll still be maintaining a presence on MySpace, I won't be checking in nearly as much. If you want to contact me, please do it via the new message board at BrianKeene.com.

Now, perhaps you just typed in www.briankeene.com and you don't see a message board or Blog posts or anything like that. Instead, all you see is the old website. Don't worry. All is well. Here is Doctor Michael Oliveri to explain why that is happening:

"It all has to do with when your DNS server sees the changes. DNS is like a phone book for the Internet. Every ISP maintains their own phonebook for their hosts. The top-level stuff now knows that the authoritative phone book for briankeene.com is our new host. However, your ISP phonebook may not yet be aware of that because it's cached briankeene.com's address as our old webhost's. When it dumps that cache sometime within the next 48 hours (quite possibly sooner -- this is the max most hosts use), it will ask the top-level guys who is in charge of briankeene.com, learn it is now our new host, and ask the new host's phonebook what briankeene.com's address is. If that doesn't work, or you are impatient, empty your cache and then do the following:  Click Start, and then click Run. Type cmd and hit enter. Type ipconfig/flushdns and hit enter. Type exit and hit enter. Then visit www.briankeene.com and see if you get the new site. "

Thank you, Mike.

So, we'll see all of you at the new digs, right? If not, you'll miss the Big Surprise Announcement, which is coming soon...
