I broke down and bought a new computer. After having my last PC for a good four or five years, I figured it wouldn’t hurt to lay down some cash on a new one.
Since I do all my work remote, it is something that I need to have to make an income - so why not spend a little extra? That was my internal argument before hitting the buy button for this beauty.
I ended up going with the HP Pavilion Elite and I am pretty darn happy. Of course, I had better be because the final price was a little over $2,000. Read the rest of this entry »

I often get asked, “How exactly can I get a job at a web hosting company?”. Well, I promise you don’t have to be a total web hosting junkie - but it helps. One common misconception is that you need to know all the ins and outs of a server. Sure, that might help as well but there are plenty of web hosting jobs that keep you far far away from the technical stuff.
Cut to the Chase, How Can I Quit My Job and Start in Web Hosting?
So how does one get a job in the web hosting game? That is the topic I covered on this week’s Web Hosting Show guide podcast. From begining to end I spend the entire show covering the following topics:
- Am I an Employee or a Contracted Worker?
- Experience Workers Make the Best Workers!
- Show Me Some of That Web Hosting Money!
- What Type of Web Hosting Jobs Are There?
- Where Can I Find Available Hosting Jobs?
Plus a heck of a lot more. If your looking to switch jobs, this episode was done just for you. Interested? Don’t wait - learn how you can get your first hosting gig courtesy of the Web Hosting Show podcast.

I have sometimes been known to be the guy that folks come to for advice on making a name for yourself Online.
Now I know my popularity is nothing more than a blip on the World Wide Web’s radar, and there are those out there that might be better, faster, and stronger than me. I can tell you though that it never hurts to try something new.
When it comes to getting your Web site to become the next big thing or even just to have a small audience, you have to try a few things out before you figure out what sticks. Here are my personal tips that I have gone through and hopefully you can learn from. [Read the Rest of my Post at Lunartics!]

Now I know you are not suppose to think out loud Online because somebody might come by and snatch up your idea before you get around to doing it. I am going to do a little thinking anyways. If anybody has any feedback or additional thoughts, you can always leave a comment to let me know.
I am considering re-launching Hosting Hoopla as a big resource list for the Web hosting industry. Something like my resources page for the Web Hosting Show, but bigger and better. The whole content aggregation idea was a bust and never went anywhere. I don’t think the world of Web hosting was ready for something like that.
Of course I would have to come up with a unique way of getting things posted to the Web site. Just an idea for now, but I would love to hear if anybody thinks I should run with the idea or are we tired of that idea?

As I move MitchKeeler.com to a new hosting account, my E-mail might be down for a little while. If you really need to get a hold of me for something though - please use mitch@lockergnome.com for the time being. Thanks!
Alright, I think I got mitch@mitchkeeler.com back up and running now.

Well, I guess it is about time I said something public about this. After my offer to the world for my “professional services” more than a few folks came out and offered me a job. I have to thank everybody who did so, and I wish I could work for you all. After much debate though, I decided to go with Lunarpages.com. Starting tomorrow, I am going to be working on their forums and doing pre-sales chat for them. I know, it isn’t the biggest job in the world, but I didn’t want too much work. I just wanted a 9 to 5 type job to where I could keep doing my writing, and get some extra cash on the side.
It has been two years since I last worked in this type of job, but I think as soon as I get used to it again, all should be well. Customer support is like riding a bicycle, right?
