I guess you could call this my third vision of the Hosting Hoopla layout. I got some complaints about the Web site being too narrow, so I added an extra column to space things out a ‘bit. I also made things a little better looking as well. To my eye, I think you’ll find it even more visually appealing.
I also rigged up the old Hosting Hoopla RSS feed to point to a category on my Mitchelaneous blog, so now I have a place for Hosting Hoopla system updates. Another feature many asked for was an “about” Web page which is now featured via the main Web site as well. So subscribe for updates, visit the Web site and keep up to date with the latest and greatest in the Web hosting industry.

I found this Web site in my inbox this morning. Think somebody is trying to tell me something?
Welcome to CSSFILL.COM where you will find a selection of completely free CSS / XHTML based layouts and templates designed by Michael Strand, it is recomended that you read the important info section before using the CSSFILL templates.
I do have to say, they have some very awesome looking layouts there and the price tag is right!

Let us just call this my comic series that never happened. I drew this a few years ago after leaving my last Web hosting customer service job. I always meant to do more, but other things kind of got in the way. Feel free to click the image, see a little closer view of it and let me know what you think. Did I miss my calling?

What if I told you that you could keep up with what is going on in the entire Web hosting industry by visiting one single Web site? You would think I was a little crazy, right? Well that dream has been turned into a reality with Hosting Hoopla; and on today’s show I’m going to tell you all about it and where I want it to go. The Web Hosting Show, podcast 62 is now on the air.

I updated Hosting Hoopla a ‘bit today. I added a new forums section for syndicating some of the latest threads at the various Web hosting forums out there. I wanted to add more, but it seems a lot of Web hosting forums don’t spit out an RSS feed. Others do, but I doubt they even know they are.
I had to remove The WHIR for right now from the Web hosting industry section because their feed is broken. I sent them a note about it, but have yet to hear back. I also added a link to W3Reports for the outside hosting industry news section.
As always, feel free to drop me an E-mail and let me know what you think or leave a comment on the new additions!

I like the ability of letting folks bookmarks what I have written on any of the big social bookmarking or social news Web sites out there. I just don’t know if I like the idea of having thirty or more links on one page pointing to all of them. I have found a solution though.
Socializer is a free automatic social bookmarking submitter. All you need to do is place a little code in your Web page template and you can turn those thirty links into one. You can see it in action if you view any of my articles on Mitchelaneous or The Web Hosting Show and click the “share this” link.
For other Blogware users, here is the code you will need to get this to work for you:
