Technical Thingies
Posted by Sam at 9:20 AM

Ok... I'm back. Did you even notice that I was gone?

Anyway, I just made the move from iPowerWeb to Lunarpages. Why? Well, duh! Check out the slick front page at Lunarpages:


Compare it to the drab iPowerWeb home page, and I think my reasoning will become obvious:


I don't know about you guys, but I choose my web hosting company solely on the coolness of their home page. I mean, that's what's important, right? Who cares about all of those lame stats and numbers. 12% Uptime this, 7000 FTP accounts that... lame! Just give me a cool flash demo on a high tech home page, and I'm sold! Hook, line, and sinker.

The real reason for the switch was because iPowerWeb was sticking to their offer that I signed on with from two years ago... even though their current hosting package is twice as good for the same price. That, and I wanted to take advantage of Lunarpages' add-on domain hosting thingy (along with a few other technical thingies). We'll see how it goes. It's the same price for more thingies... so what have I got to lose?

Sam,
I noticed you were gone during the boring stretch at the Library...but I started reading up on Flash animation. Still somewhat intimidated however.

Dude.

Why didn't you consult me first?

I could have hosted you FREE and handled all that shit for you.

We use Lunarpages over at www.mutantfrog.com and it works out just fine. Good luck to you!

Sam Who!?
Sam is an amazing and humble guy. Once, he rushed into a burning building, up six flights of stairs to save a kitten from certain death. He speaks eight languages, has mastered three varieties of martial arts, is a wine expert, and is a pulitzer prize winning author. Sam is an international heart-throb who prefers a quiet evening at home knitting afghans for the homeless, to the go-go, glitz and glamor of the party scene. I think the day he won the silver medal for ballroom dancing at the 98 olympics was the happiest of his life. Pretty impressive for a guy who never finished the 8th grade. - Carrie, 04
