site stuff; sony

Globat is offering free web hosting again. Actually, it's $7.95/month, but there is a rebate coupon for one free year. Basic account is 10GB space with 300GB bandwidth/month. PHP, Perl, cgi-bin, ssi, and all that good stuff. If you do order and account with them, it would be cool if you'd enter eternalvox.net as the referral ^^*

Tominationmedia.net is having server problems. I thought maybe they finally realized I was serving files (even though they're not really illegal) before I contacted support and they said they were having a problem with the server. Now that I think about it, it's possible that they had sent me an e-mail about planned upgrades or something. *shurg* Hey, as long as my account isn't being suspended, it's all good.

Edit: It's back now. Yay!

Sony stops making anti-piracy CDs - Sony has said it will suspend the production of music CDs with anti-piracy technology which can leave computers vulnerable to viruses. The move came after security firms said hackers were exploiting the software to hide their creations.

Stupid Sony. :-P

Okay. Off to rake leaves now. Joy of joys.

*groans* If I had a paypal account or credit card, I'd so jump on this. Because you have to pay for it first to get the rebate, eh? *cries* Ah well, guess I'll have to suck it up and just pay for hosting some day. :P

lol Thanks! It's the only icon I've ever made that I was really proud of. :P

You're welcome to it if you like. :) Totally shareware. ;)

Hee! Thanks, totally gonna snatch it.

Awww. Yeah, you have to pay before hand and then you fill out a rebate. Which you get back... a long while later. lol

Well, I missed out in any case. I even went so far as to try and get a hold of people I know with credit cards, but they must have seen me coming a mile away becuase no one was answering their phones. lol

Well, Globat always has some kind of crazy special and the free year might be around for awhile yet. LOL Last timeit was on for 3 or 4 months.

I hope so. At least long enough for me to set up a paypal account. :)

Oh well, I could totally not pass that up (since my webspace is like 250 MB and I already have to many vids to upload them all) so thank you for the tip.

I did put you in as referral so i hope that actually gets you something *g*

*oh so much webspace all the things I can put up now....* :)

Yay! You'll like them. Their service is really good and I've very rarely had downtime and even then it didn't last longer than an hour :)

I think I get a free year after three referrals. Heh.
