We have made the transition to a larger server with the help of the team at Verio and our managed hosting partners at Northstar Hosting and Internet. We're hopeful now that the improvements eliminate the problems. Thanks to all for your patience and respect the last few days.

We have indeed noticed the lag time and sometime difficulty in getting onto the N90.bloggercomm.com server the past two days. After consultation with our hosting partners at Northstar and Verio we've opted to increase the server capacity four fold.
I guess this is the price of success as the traffic has been incoming like no one ever forsaw or expected. We call that a good problem to have.
So sometime today, or over the weekend we will move the data to the new server and things should be back to normal. Once we're sure everything is up and running we'll begin the process of providing more access to the site to all of the Bloggers in the Nokia Blogger Relations Communications program.
If you already have a TypeKey the ability to comment will be easy, and we'll identify you on the server side as a trusted commenter. That means your comments will go up without moderation. Next we will attack how each blogger in the program can actually post onto this site, which may mean some minor reconfiguring on the back end of Moveable Type, but that will be next week's challenge.
Thanks for your support and ongoing participation.
Regards,
The BloggerComm Team
