“Holy shit, a talking muffin!”
Posted by Daljit of NORN on June 1st, 2006 filed in Diagnostic Reports, FunSome time ago, I heard about the Dreamhost Blog through one of Dreamhost’s newsletters. For those of you that don’t know, Dreamhost is the company that provides my hosting. In my many years of running a piddly site with an all time high monthly hit count of ~117, I have not seen a host that gives so much for so little of your money. Their tech support is great, as are their hosting plans.
You may be wondering why I’m telling you this? Does a Dreamost rep have a gun to my server, demanding that I extoll their virtues? Have they offered me money/disk space/pr0n to bribe me into recruiting for them? NO! Although they do have some sort of referal program, I have no idea how it works because I never bothered to find out. So why am I telling you this?
Well, I was cleaning out my Firefox Bookmarks today, and I came across a bookmark for the Dreamhost Blog, as linked above. I could remember nothing of the site, so I went there to see if it was worth keeping in my bookmarks. Let me tell you, that shit is hilarious. It’s a blog about webhosting, mostly. It’s not too exciting on that score, because I mean, it’s webhosting. If you’re a geek, however, you may find it interesting. (I suppose it’s a testament to my true geekiness that I found it pretty interesting. Also, you can shut the fuck up now.) If that were all the site was, I wouldn’t mention it here, on my Dreamhost hosted site that hasn’t ever won the Dreamhost Site of the Month (not that I’ve ever bothered to submit it), but there’s a little more than just blogging about webhosting on the Dreamhost Blog. Oh yes. There’s posts about kickball.
I submit, for the approval of The Midnight Society, one webhost’s tale of the greatest kickball game ever played. I laughed, I laughed… and I laughed some more! I laughed until I stopped! The writing style seems like it’s the same guy who puts out the monthly newsletters, which are also works of comedic delight. If I wasn’t so lazy, I’d look up the authors of both and tell you for sure, but… I’m lazy. I’m lucky to have even written this post.
