The move will start on Tuesday 08/14/2012 at 8pm PST and will finish the same day at 10pm PST. The API will be shutdown during the move, so new short URLs can be created during the 2-hour move (UPDATE: it lasted 22 minutes only).
The short URLs will still redirect users throughout the move. We will loose a bout a day of statistics about traffic.
We will update this post when the move starts, and when it is done.
