dreaming out loud…

So it looks like my web hosting gave out on me. If you don’t know the story behind it here it is. Back in 2004 when Gmail was in beta, I received an invite ’cause I was using blogger at the time. For the next couple of months gmail invites were hot stuff. I sold one for $78 and another for free webhosting. I’ve been using the hosting ever since. Up until this week where all of a sudden my site was gone and I couldn’t log in. I guess whoever was hosting it got tired of it or something and deleted my account. Oh well.

Interestingly, last week I thought it would be a good idea to back up all the stuff I had there. So I haven’t really lost anything, just whatever was updated from May 26 till June 5. So until further notice this will be my new site. I’ll try and get all my old stuff up and running this weekend. Enjoy.

  1. That’s a sad story. Nice work backing it up though. That’s something that I should probably do. You know, since I update my website so frequently.

  2. Ha, I got free web hosting by trading gmail invites on gmailswap myself…

    The best thing I got though was 5 years of subscriptions to a bunch of magazines, that guy really came through for me. He worked at a publishing house of some sort. I still get them to this day.
