No Nukes, The Satanic Pikachu

Arrrrrr! Here be me fearful visage, mateys!

Okay, so it's not so fearful, and I'm four feet tall, and I my ship is about the size of a tugboat, but I'm still a PIKACHU, dammit, and I can still THUNDER SHOCK you and stuff! Grrrr! I'm scary!

Anyway, Funmark shut off my website recently (rotten bastards) and I'm hunting for another 30MB+ server that's NOT free. I've learned my lesson after witnessing the NBCi and Topcities fiascoes. While I'm searching for my Dream Server (which will hopefully not require me to MOVE to the server box's location and wait on it hand and foot) I'm writing up reviews and opinon columns. Don't worry, I have plenty of time to post between then and now.

Well, have you tried xoom.com? They're pretty good. I think that's the address.

Xoom's been dead for a couple of years.  It became NBCi.com, then NBC pulled the plug -- a year ago? 18 months?

Good free hosting's hard to find (and good free hosting without annoying ads? even harder).  Two of the last places to get it are networld.com and redrival.com.  Other than that, hell, just spring for a $15 domain name and $5-10/month cheap hosting.

Check out everyones internet. http://ev1.net

I used them until I got DSL.  Their like 10 bucks a month for dial up, and I think you still get 300 meg of web space for a "personal" page.

And you could check out http://rackshack.net They have "virtual servers" for 10 bucks a month as well...

Good luck.

This is the route to go IMO.  My host only charges $35 a year for $50 MB server space and 2 Gig transfer.  It has all the trimmings and has been very reliable.

Here's the URL:
