			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Originally, we were using <a href="http://www.westhost.com">WestHost</a> as our hosting provider for <a title="EduTechnica.com" href="http://www.edutechnica.com">EduTechnica</a>. They were a great host and I would recommend them to anyone (and I have), but recently we learned that they are not supporting the type of Tomcat server we had any more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright" style="border: 0px initial initial;" title="rackspace_logo" src="http://www.gorbsky.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/rackspace_logo.png" alt="rackspace_logo" width="158" height="60" />Seeing as how we run a Java-based application, we need the Tomcat support. So, our site is now hosted by <a href="http://www.rackspace.com">Rackspace</a> using their Cloud Servers. It&#8217;s similar to the type of account we had before with WestHost, but we now have much more flexibility in the server configuration and can quickly scale as necessary.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: 0px initial initial;" title="apps_logo" src="http://www.gorbsky.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/apps_logo.gif" alt="apps_logo" width="161" height="40" />In addition to now being hosted in the cloud, we migrated our email over to Google&#8217;s <a href="http://www.google.com/apps">&#8220;Apps for Your Domain</a>&#8221; which basically allows us to use GMail, Google Docs, GCal, etc within our domain. I personally love this since the POP3 support on my Droid seems to be spotty at best but it interfaces seamlessly with GMail accounts. So now we have awesome web-based email,  integration with my phone, private chat options, and Postini spam filter. I&#8217;ll also be moving all of my other domains to Google Apps in the coming weeks.</p>
<p>So now that the hosting has been reestablished, the databases have been migrated, and <a href="http://www.socialengine.net" target="_blank">SocialEngine </a>has been set up again, it&#8217;s time to get into the <a title="pCharts" href="http://pchart.sourceforge.net/">pCharts</a> and tie it all together. Expect closed beta testing to commence soon.</p>
