Dreamhost.com
From atop the Utah One building, downtown Salt Lake City
Dreamhost is my current web host. I love dreamhost. Almost a year ago I moved sloanie.com to dreamhost because
a) I couldn't set up Movable Type on my other host, Yahoo Geocities web hosting, which was
b) Over-priced and under-powered feature-wise (unless you want silly cookie cutter templates, not this web designer, uh-uh.) I don't remember how much it was, something like $20 a month for only 50 MB of storage! Such a rip...
So I stumble across dreamhost.com and they seem like a pretty cool host, and seem to offer good value on their service, not to mention being capable of running MT. I sign up for $9.95 a month for 200 MB of storage space. TONS better than I was getting at Yahoo. (a bit tricky to switch hosts but worth it).
Sometime late in 2003 they upgraded my plan for free to include 500 MB of web space rather than 200. More than double! Without costing a cent more!
Then today I find I've been upgraded again--- I now have 800 MB of storage space (4 times what I started with!) and they've also upgraded me from 5 subdomains to 15, and from 25 GB of bandwidth to 40 GB (Eat your heart out Joel :P), etc. -- and I still don't pay any more than I originally signed up for.
So I just had to say I love my web host and give them a plug. Thank you, that is all.
I hate you.
I love the picture.
sweet deal. why'd you take the pic on an angle? it was cool cause when i opened the page in a smaller window, i could only see the clouds and it looked level, but when i scrolled down, it took me by surprise that the horizon was diagonal. nice effect
Whoah. Now that I look at it at work thats a huge pic. Oh well ;)
It was actually only slightly on an angle. We weren't aloud outside on that floor of the building, but since the AC wasn't working the security card opened the door for a moment-- so I just stuck my camera out the door and took a few shots.
I thought I'd experiment and crop it so it was at even more of an angle... makes the shote more interesting, doesn't it?
Joel, how much bandwidth do you get / are you using right now?
