That was great!
Yeah, neotown.com rolled over and kicked up its little legs (what a surprise).
I've thought about FortuneCity but for some inexplicable reason, I don't like
the feel of that place. I've been lazy about updating my new site at
radiotitan.8m.com a FreeServers site. Only the main page is active (just
so I'd have something) though I'm not sure I'm going to stay there. I'd rather
not have ads on my pages (of course). The good side of this is that FreeServers
doesn't care if you use your pages to make money!
Brickenrocker lives, but it is kinda scattered amongst a few ZIP discs. Take a
lesson from me: backup everything in an orderly fashion to make restoring a
page or a site much easier. I still have everything but I have to hunt for it.
The laziness factor has had an overriding input, and I apologize to Sproaticus,
especially since I told him awhile back that I'd post one of his cool musical
MOCs at Brickenrocker :) (I haven't forgotten!)
Meanwhile, I've had two offers of where I could keep my site, both of which
came from lego maniacs. Y'all are truly kind! I might go with baylug.org and
sort of "earn my keep" cuz I'm signed up to do their space section.
