Yeah I know, I am suppose to be on vacation this week from posting anything. This is just a small update though. Thanks to Steve Rubel I know have an account at Yahoo! 360. I’ve been playing with it the last few hours, and I have to say it is pretty neat. Sure, there are a few things that could be improved but overall it is a very nice package. Expect to hear more from me about it next week. Till then, go check out my Yahoo! 360 profile and let me know what you think!
I have been busy with a lot of different things the past few months, and I think I am in need of a break from things. So I have decide that I am going on a “blogging vacation” this week.
Hopefully by the end of it I’ll be refreshed and ready to jump back into my proverbial writing pants. Also, if you are wondering there is an episode of The Web Hosting Show up and running. However there will be no show for April 4th. The Web Hosting Show will be back in production on April 11th. Mitchelaneous however will be back in production on April 4th. If you have any article ideas, folks to interview, show ideas or anything that would fit on either of my two Web sites, this would be the perfect time to contact me and let me know. Also if anybody has been wanting to send me fan mail this would be the time to do it as well. Figure I’ll get at least one…maybe! See you all in about a week!
A lot of the questions Web hosts get are all the same, today I will tackle some of the most common problems and get them answered once and for all. Web hosting for video games? I go one on one with the folks from Enfinity Hosting and talk about Web hosting, dedicated game servers and so much more. There is going to be an open bar and gambling at HostingCon2005. Now where did I put my invitation? Buckle your seat belt and grab your granny, The Web Hosting Show is on the air.

A few days ago I received the first edition of Ping! Zine with one of my articles inside. For those of you who might not know, Ping! Zine is a free Web hosting magazine that covers just about everything the Web hosting world has to offer from top to bottom. This was Volume 3, Issue 1 and has been one of the better issues I have read so far. Why? Well yeah maybe it is because I am in it.
Through pages 36 to 37 I describe some of the Web hosting differences that are out there today. Just think of it as a trip back to Web hosting school. I am extremely happy with the way it all turned out and I can’t wait till the next issue of Ping! Zine comes out because I’ll be in that one as well.
Wrote Web hosting articles? Check.
Wrote Web hosting book? Check.
Host Web hosting radio show? Check.
Get Web hosting articles in print? Now I can say I have done that as well. What else is left for a Web hosting innovator to do? Honestly though I have to once again thank Lockergnome for some of my recent success. Who would have guessed I would have come so far in such a small amount of time? Not me, that is for sure.
Now I am not usually a big fan of things where you have to put some money down monthly or yearly to get a service returned to you. You know like the movies you can watch Online or the music you can “pay for”. Well I think my problem was there was just nothing out there that I thought was worth paying for. That all changed a few days ago when I signed up for WWE’s new Match Jukebox service.
After paying my yearly fee of $39.95 I can now access any of the matches they have uploaded now from ECW, WCW, NWA, WWF and more anytime I want to. With currently more than 150 matches in its library, and 325 matches scheduled by year’s end, WWE Match Jukebox is the one and only place to watch wrestling matches Online. New matches are added every month, so if I get bored with what is up now all I have to do is wait a few more weeks to get some more wrestling action.
Right now they have sections dedicated to: Hot August Matches, Smackdown, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Most Requested, John Cena, Wrestlemania, Hollywood Hogan, Sting, Royal Rumble, Specialty Matches, Intercontinental, Heavyweight, WWE Championship, WCW, ECW and March. Each section has around 15 or more matches for you to choose from. Want to see Trish Stratus take on Stacy Keibler in a Bra and Panties match? Go right ahead! Want to see The Undertaker make his Wrestlemania debut against Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka? It is all up to you.
So what is the quality like? Almost perfect. Well, I have an advantage because of my Samsung SyncMaster 910T 19″ LCD monitor. Just about anything looks good on this bad boy! Regardless though, I can toss up a few matches, bring them up to full screen then sit back a few feet away and watch some of my favorite old WWE matches.
It is honestly harder to find time to work now when I know I could be watching wrestling instead. So would I recommend the WWE Match Jukebox to other pro wrestling fans out there? Whole heartedly.
My good friend and fellow Web hosting writer, Johnder Perez wrote up a feature article up at The Hosting Chronicle about myself and The Web Hosting Show. It is one of the best written articles I have seen yet about myself or The Web Hosting Show. Make sure you go check it out and let him know what you think.
Anybody in the Web hosting industry will realize how big the Web hosting business is, especially when a weekly show is dedicated to it. Delivered as a podcast, the Web Hosting Show is quickly gaining momentum as the next source for Web hosting news and information. What exactly is a podcast? Think of a radio show. But instead of listening to it on your radio, you hear it while you’re on the internet.
What exactly makes this show unique to the world of Web hosting? Amidst all of the hosting communities, magazines, Web sites and directories feeding hoards of information to the Web hosting community, the Web Hosting Show is a unique blend of Web hosting news and information delivered in a fun and entertaining manner. Try listening in on one of the shows and you’ll hear a jovial voice with a southern Texas accent. Then perhaps you might be wondering: who is the voice behind the Web Hosting Show?
