First
things first, I need to give a shout out to the boys and girls at XOOM. They everso
graciously host my wonderful in a most unobtrusive manner. No huge banner on my
page, no pop up window taking you away from my page, just a small,
well placed link back to there sight. Thank you XOOM. my only fear is that it
won't last. 
It is with that in mind that I turned to Bigfoot. Bigfoot offers URL redirecting.
So no matter how many times I change ISP's or web hosts you can always get to
my website using the same URL: www.bigfoot.com/~acklen ! Yet for as wise as I
may be now, I did not always know these things. It took a lot of searching on
the web to find the perfect [free] web host. But after a long and ardjuous search
I believe that I have found, in the combination of Bigfoot and XOOM, the perfect
web host.
Geocities
was my first attempt at a free web host. But I kept noticing these nasty pop up
windows would appear every time I tried to connect to my site. How very disheartening
it was. 
This
is not what I wanted for my potential surfers and fellow netizens. It was for
damn sure not what I wanted for myself. All the pop up windows floating around
on the net prompted me to find a way to turn them off. That option came in the
form of a new web browser. You see Netscape and MSIE are tied to the all mighty
buck and would never piss off all their advertiser by allowing you to turn off
banners and pop up windows. They not only had pop ups that also wanted to put
a huge banner on my page!! And Tripod
and NetTaxi were
no better. Where's the love?
