Strongspace

I finally (after months of waiting) received my Strongspace coupon tonight.  About a year ago, I signed up for TextDrive’s “VC III” plan, which was/is a lifetime hosting account, as long as the company is around.  Back in early Feb., I signed up for their “Mixed Grill“, which adds Strongspace and Joyent to your lifetime [...]

Interesting web-host

Although I am a loyal “VC” customer at TextDrive, I have another reseller hosting account to hosts sites for family, friends, and a few clients. I always have a watchful eye for the next big host (never to trump TextDrive of course). I came acroos Mosso, a pretty innovative host offering large resources [...]

Tasks

There’s nothing better than a good task management software package.  Software that can actually keep your life organized is worth the trouble to learn to use, and as with any “management” type software, you have to actually change how you do things in order to fully utilize the software’s features.
I’ve tried several times to use [...]

TextDrive Love

I am finally utilizing my TXD account.  I’ve had a lifetime account for awhile now but only used it as a backup/hobby space.  After many months of figuring out how Webmin works and playing with linux, I decided to move my domain over here.
I noticed load times are a fraction slower than my old host, [...]

TextDrive’s “Mixed Grill”

Wow! These guys never cease to amaze me. TextDrive, now owned by Joyent, has once again offered a new lifetime hosting plan. This time, they have included the use of Strongspace (online secure file sharing/storage) and Joyent email services. I purchased a VCIII lifetime hosting account sometime ago and just upgraded [...]

TextDrive lifetime hosting…round 4

Yes, for a very limited time (as in…maybe just until this weekend is over), TextDrive is offering their lifetime hosting accounts for $399. Expensive? Yes. Worth it? Very much so. You can only sign up via their link on the forums (here).
I highly recommend you get one of these accounts, [...]

TextDrive Sold

This scares me. They say everything will stay the same but rarely does this happen. I have a lifetime hosting account over there and I hope it stays the same, but only time will tell. TextDrive is a fun place to play with a website and linux, mainly because they have a [...]

ClarkConnect

You can do some cool stuff at home with a comptuer and free Linux software.  ClarkConnect is an all-in-one package that allows you to run your email, web, and MySQL database applications all in one place.  I’ve dabled some into this, but never really done anything with it.  Reeves has though and I wanted to [...]

WordPress.com Open

It seems Matt and the guys have decided to remove the “invites” over at WordPress.com for a little bit. If you ever wanted your own blog, WordPress is the defacto standard in blogging tools.
The cool thing is, should you want your own blog but cannot afford (or don’t want to mess with) hosting, WordPress.com [...]

New domain, new site, new WordPress

Wow. Lot’s of moving around lately. It’s taken a few hours to get my DB moved over (thanks MySQL overhead) and upgraded to use the new version of WordPress.
Yes, this site is now running WordPress 2.0 (beta). Hands-down the best blogging tool anywhere on earth. I’ve got to workout a few [...]

FastMail

Earlier I told you about FuseMail. Well, after really using the hell out of them for a good few days, I can honestly say…they suck balls. Their interface is slow and clunky, and their IMAP servers (where are they hosted?!) are gawd-awful.
In my never ending search for a good email solution, I came [...]
