Carnival of Personal Finance and My New Home
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed.
I sent my article Micro Lending and the Decline of Poverty in to this week’s Carnival of Personal Finance. The carnival is being hosted at Everybody Loves Your Money and I love the metaphor of the used car salesman presenting this week’s carnival.

Can you hear that joyous sound? That’s my relief, since I spent the weekend moving Art of Money to a new hosting company, and upgrading to the latest version of WordPress. My apologies if you dropped by in the middle and received a bunch of errors as your reward.
The site loads noticeably faster and I have an insane amount of bandwidth so I can go wild with the videos. Dreamhost has another little feature that I like…you can force everyone to use the same version of your url. If you type in artofmoney.org, it will automatically slam your browser over to www.artofmoney.org.

Chris added these pithy words on Nov 20 06 at 8:27 pmCongrats - does seem to load pretty fast. I’ve been looking at ISPs as well. Do you know anything about NearlyFreeSpeech at https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/ They have an interesting pricing model.
Cheers, Chris
Jon added these pithy words on Nov 20 06 at 9:53 pmHi Chris,
NearlyFreeSpeech looks interesting, especially for just starting out…low commitment level. Personally though I would pay a bit more to get “real” email and the latest PHP etc. Also, with Dreamhost it is esentially an unlimited reseller account for $7.95 a month, so I can partition off a section of space and give it to a friend or sell it at a discount. When you have as many sites on the go as I do, it is probably cheaper. But like I said if I was just starting, I’d probably give it a try on NFS.
