The Comic Book Bin's Move Is Complete!

Since last Friday, September 3rd, The Comic Book Bin was moving to a new more powerful and faster server. We thought we could wrap up everything during the long Labour Day weekend. We couldn't. There were things to tests and settings to set.

But now all has been verified and all works, including all our apps! We're happy to be at this new host on our one server where we can grow at ease without encumbering other neighbours.

The growing pains we went through is normal for growing Web sites, and part of business. We knew that day would come and we're glad it came now. It's a good sign when you're kicked out of your dad's basement!

We could't publish articles during that time. It would have made our transition harder. So this relapse of a few days is the first time in several, several years that The Bin has not published something every day.

If you're just discovering us, you'll find over 14,000 articles for you to read in several format. We offer them as is on the site, in print-friendly format, and now through several smartphone apps. For those smartphone users we don't support yet, there is a mobile version of the site too. Everything is updated at the same time.

We have strong search engines allowing you to discover one of those articles we wrote years ago.

If you're a regular of the Bin, welcome back and hopefully, you continue to visit often. Regulars may notice the lack of error messages and a faster delivery of pages that were cause by us reaching the capacity of previous host. As I'm still working on our mobile apps, it wasn't easy to plan for this move and I admit, dear Android fans, that I had to take a break from the Android app development to figure out the move to the new site. The good news is that when you guys can finally download the final first release of this app, it won't crash on you because the site can't deliver contents to your phone!

There should be a lot of articles published in the next few days to make up for all the loss time. So do come back often or you'll miss some great stuff from the writers of the Bin.

cheers
