New Web Hosting ServicePOSTED APR 9, 2026

After twenty-five years on OLM, the hosting service I used to founded this website in 2001, egrabow.com has moved on to a new host. You shouldn't notice any difference beside faster preformance and fewer hiccups with "https" connections. There's nothing like a security certificate expiring, over and over again, and seeing every browser in the world start flashing DANGER DANGER THIS SITE IS DANGEROUS when the connection is fine but one date in one field is no longer current. Chill out, Chrome/ Firefox/ Edge/ etc. You'll give someone a stroke.

As noted in my last post, a couple of things broke on the way over. I'll fix them when I have the time. Otherwise, visitors to this website should notice no difference at all.

This is a bit sentimental, as OLM is the company I gave my grandparents Christmas money to when I first launched this site 25 years ago. I stopped using them as a name registrar (all dot-coms need to stay registered) back in 2020, but until this week they were still hosting the files on their servers. Now, a company called InMotion hosts them.

Farewell OLM, and thanks!
