thank you again Linode
It seems like just yesterday I was thanking Linode, my VPS host, for the free bump in disk space. I just noticed they also provided a 28% increase in RAM for free as well. My first year of hosting with them has been an absolute pleasure.
Thank you Chris! 
thank you Linode!
I just noticed that Linode (my VPS host) was kind enough to give me 33% more disk space for free. I’ve been with them just shy of a year and extremely happy. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a VPS host.
Thank you Chris!
is spendy a word?
It occurred to me that I hadn’t updated in search of in a while. There are a several new queries to puzzle over.
Linode
A few weeks ago I moved spendy.org and the other domains I host over to a Linode virtual dedicated server. Linode uses user-mode Linux so I am free to run my choice of distribution with guaranteed bandwidth, CPU, and memory. Since I can’t really justify the expense of collocating a server for the few odds and ends I have on the Internet, a VDS is the next best thing. The initial account setup was painless and $20/month is a bargain compared to most shared hosting accounts.
Storage space is at a premium; however, I find most of my stuff fits nicely in 4GB. A bit of reverse proxy magic with Apache allows me to serve up my photos from my home server. This provides a more elegant solution to Verizon’s lame port 80 blocking on their FiOS network.
So far I’m a very happy customer
