Web Hosting Talk Insider – Pets and Policies
Pets and Policies Last week’s WHT Insider focused a bit on SOPA and PIPA as consumers and the web hosting community came together to get those bills off the table. I mentioned OPEN as a bill we could possibly support. And we’ll try to keep you updated on these items as things develop. Don’t forget [...]
Web Hosting Talk Insider – SOPA & PIPA – The challenge remains
SOPA & PIPA – The challenge remains As many of you are aware, SOPA and PIPA are tabled (for now). The web hosting industry enjoyed a stay when these two bills were put off for consideration. But the fight isn’t over. They’ll likely be back. And when they do come back, we’ll look at them [...]
Web Hosting Talk Insider – Christmas is gone but the show goes on
Christmas is gone but the show goes on Christmas! It’s one of those holidays I can’t wait to get here. Anticipation can build for months. But I’m pretty happy when it’s over. Now it’s year’s end and time to reflect on how this year went and plan on making 2012 even better than the rest!……….(Read [...]
Web Hosting Talk Insider – Giving WHT Thanks
Giving WHT Thanks Greetings from the north side of 50! That’s right – Today is my 60th happy birthday. And I’m excited! Like many of you reading, I didn’t think it’d be like that. I always figured that 60 was a pretty big number and life would have to slow down to accommodate it. But [...]
Web Hosting Talk Insider – The newsletter about newsletters edition
The newsletter about newsletters edition The past couple of years writing the WHT Insider has been both fun and challenging for me. I enjoy sharing snippets of my life and noting how it all relates to web hosting, pointing out some hot thread topics within the community, and spotlighting a WHT member. We’ve received a [...]
Web Hosting Talk Insider – Back to getting things done
Back to getting things done Remember about 3 months back when I talked about giving back? In When it’s time to give back, I mentioned that I still had some things that needed doing before the snow flies. Last weekend was about the last weekend to get them things done. So I rented a bobcat [...]
Web Hosting Talk Insider – Domain names and ideas
I’m not sure what happened with my domain jar. But I’ve come to the realization I have too many domain names. I can’t think of a reason I’d ever use them all. But I can’t think of a reason to sell them either.
Web Hosting Talk Insider – Slowing Down
Slowing Down Greetings from beautiful Macinac Island. Yes – I’m on vacation. My wife and I came up here for the proverbial get-away. It’s a quiet place (since there are no automobiles on the island) and a relaxed pace. This is outside the busy tourist season. So it’s even more relaxed. A little cool. But [...]
Web Hosting Talk Insider – Smarter than your average phone
“It’s newsletter day!” When I hear that, I know my day’s going to be pretty full. I enjoy writing. It may not look like it if you read my terse WHT posts, this newsletter, or anything else I’ve written.
Web Hosting Talk Insider – Fire Your Customer!
I don’t have a problem admitting that I’m tired. Like Uncle Carl used to say, “Saturday I woke up (I usually get out of bed between 5am and 6am) and it was still quite warm outside – 80F. I got up yesterday and it was rather cool – 44F. It’s like going from the peak of summer to the middle of fall in a heartbeat. The weather decides to remind us who’s in charge every once in a while.
Web Hosting Talk Insider – When it’s time to give back
I don’t have a problem admitting that I’m tired. Like Uncle Carl used to say, “I feel like a beat up old person”. The ole homestead has been whoopin’ on me of late. I told you about hooking up the generator to the household electric. But that’s just the tip of it.
Web Hosting Talk Insider – See you at HostingCon!
Things are tough all over. Uncertainty surrounding the U.S. economy has everyone a little uneasy. Consumers are trying to stretch their spending power and providers are trying to maintain a balance between staying afloat and earning rewards. One thing that always seems worth the expense is networking…..
Web Hosting Talk Insider – Electric Solutions
I don’t mind admitting, I’m a little beat up today. I spent the weekend forming and pouring concrete. What started out as pouring a small slab for a building to house my generator in, turned into adding 12 feet of sidewalk as well.
