the daily snivel

It's pretty amazing how much bandwidth this site uses up (an average of 10 megabytes of traffic downloading pages and images every day), and even more amazing how stingy the good folks at directnic.com (my domain name registrar) are in furnishing bandwidth to their hosted websites. You get 2 gigabytes of transfer bandwidth, or a year, whichever comes first. I tend to need to buy more bandwith 2-3 times a year, and having just received a notice yesterday that I'm once more running out of bandwidth for my popular little website, I'm getting a little tired of it.

So, two things will be happening.

First, and most disturbingly, I'm going to run out of bandwidth soon. The site will still be here, but it reverts to "banner mode," which means you'll be seeing banner ads at the top (and bottom) of the page. I assure you this is temporary.

Secondly, I'm going to be moving the site to a new host, like godaddy.com, which provides a lot more banbdwidth and a LOT more storage space for my buck. The address won't change, but there might be a few technical difficulties until the hosting transfer is complete, so bear with me. This will happen in the next couple of weeks once I have some money on my overtaxed credit card.

Meanwhile, please be patient. I'm getting ready for a move and must buy a car and much of my time and money is currently tied up.
