As I mentioned in my previous post, I decided to leave the headaches of my dedicated server behind me, and give their Cloud Sites option a shot instead.

The Bucket List – Cars Edition
When I was a kid, I had a poster in my room similar to the one above, only with exotic cars of the 80s. (Think Countach, SL500, Porsche 911, etc) It’s a great poster, and it’s amazing how many people I run into who had the same poster when they were growing up. Parents loved [...]
