Oddly enough, I just noticed the same thing, and was getting ready to post.

Edit: Just called their office. Apparently, they're in the process of changing servers. No time frame on when the work will be done or when the site will be back up.

Ah, gotcha. It is just an odd time to do it, as this is usually when they update the site for the new days news. Normally those things happen at odd hours.

It looks like the new website is up--looks good! It definitely performs better than the old one.

It looks like the old link using www.michigancityin.com isn't valid anymore.

If someone at The N-D had 1/2 a brain they would of designed a web page to let users know about the new domain name. That same page would then redirect the user to the new site after so many seconds...



It's pretty easy to write such a page...



On a side note, people still read The N-D? I mainly use WIMS and CBTL for local news...

Both domain names are owned by the Herald Pallidium, someone at the paper simply needs to access their godaddy.com account and redirect it.
