actually true, but i'm not very sexy.

great forum, been helpful to me, and thought it was time to join.

recently i've been playing around a lot with VPS/Nginx multi-site hosting setups on a budget, and wrote a series, Setup a VPS (4 Newbies) - The VPS Bible, up on my blog.

.. i'm hoping to find some ideas about other web servers around here, for instance people using Cherokee, and maybe uncover a few benchmarks.

Welcome to the site - you'll get a load of experience and ideas on this site .. unfortunately none will come from me though!

If I were you I'd look at changing your location, I'm not 100% sure if you can advertise your domain there :)

A couple points of interest are the forum guidelines (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/rules.php) and this answer guide (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=871925).
