Living Free on the Internet

So, I had a server with Linode. It was nice for what it did. Served a blog, some websites, and my email.

But the expense was getting a bit annoying...but I wanted to keep everything (like my email). So, what to do?

Simple, three steps:

1) Find a free primary/secondary DNS service.

2) Use Google Apps for the e-mail.

3) Use Blogger for the blog.

Sure, I lose some of my custom look...but it's free. The other biggie is GMail's better spam handling. I was using dspam, but that was getting clunky. Labels on the email also rock...better than procmail rules in setup.

Oh, and since I use Android phones, everything just ties together fairly well.

Here we go...

...again! I have decided to move from my own server to Blogger to cut costs. I've learned a lot on how to live "free" on the Internet, and still keep a web presence. Need to write all that up for everyone to see.
Until then...
