I've had a domain for two years that I never could figure out how to use. Well, I knew what my options were: I could set up my own server on my network - which is technically against most service providers regulations, or I could pay a third party to host my website. At the time I thought it was an awesome idea to try to host it myself, the problem was I could never wrap my head around using servers correctly in a Linux environment - or any other environment, for that matter. So, after two years, I have finally caved in. I have acquired a webhost for my domain.
I'd been thinking alot recently about working with a website which wasn't limited by advertisements, bandwith, space, or any of the other vicissitudes "free providers" are characterized with. I wanted a place where I could consolidate things I was doing, and facilitate conversation and interaction between people. I wanted a place where I could write some code that ran on a webserver. I wanted a place to grow; in skill and maybe even marketability.
That place is ReadySetConnect. The same host used by the tech celebrities of the Broken (Kevin Rose, Dan Huard, Ramzi). The fact that they were using the same host isn't the reason why I ultimately chose ReadySetConnect, I was looking for an affordable and reputable provider. ReadySetConnect fit the bill. It's about as expensive as World of Warcraft, and much much much much more rewarding.
So, if you read this and you'd like to be involved in the project just let me know because I'll be happy to work with you - most likely. Until this weekend don't expect any further information regarding the website, as it's not exactly an easy task creating one (that's worth a damn).
