Have you ever had one of those holidays where you get so many gifts that you realize that you’re going to have to clean up your room (or apartment, or house, etc.) in order to make room for the new things? Well, this year, I don’t exactly have a need to do quite so much cleaning up around my room, so instead, I’ll be dirtying my hands up with some PreviewCast.com cleanup after the holidays.

Okay, that was kind of a weird segway. Nevertheless, PreviewCast.com will be going down on Thursday, December 27th, starting at Noon EST (9 AM PST) for some site upgrades and reorganization. The site will still have the same theme and same artwork when it comes back online, but WordPress will be fully updated, features will be added, things will be cleaned up. Depending on how long it takes to get things done, the site will be done for at least a few hours and hopefully not longer than the whole day.

When the site maintenance is finished, PreviewCast #046 will be up and waiting for you. That’s right, we have scheduled an episode for tomorrow morning at 11 AM EST. Larry has said that he is 90% sure that he’ll be there, and we’ll be talking about the holiday, recapping the year 2007 in tech news, and looking ahead to the year 2008–this means New Years Resolutions and Macworld Predictions. Assuming nothing goes wrong (knock on wood), we’ll have a fresh PreviewCast episode waiting for you on Thursday as soon as the site comes back online.

So again, just to recap, expect PreviewCast to be down for maintenance Thursday 12/27 at 12 PM EST, and it will stay down for a few hours. As usual, I will be keeping updates on the maintenance on my Twitter so that you can follow the progress.
