So, after pretty much a year of watching bluehost.com services improve to the point of being pretty stable, I’ve now started using this site for project development and testing things out, as well as for production services. Unlike phpwebhosting.com, bluehost.com allows a number of domains to be hosted from the one account which makes it cheaper and easier to maintain a few websites.
I am using Moodle, WordPress, Gallery2 and Mediawiki as my tools of choice for LMS, Blog, Images and Wiki, but I haven’t yet selected my favorite CMS or ecommerce / payment gateway solution. The actual antiborg domain isn’t really used for anything other than as a testbed, so this blog will be less-than-interesting and not often updated or maintained.
And the idea of resistance not being futile arises from the idea that you either put everything into a locked proprietary system (defeating the purpose of the web), or you use totally open free tools (such as Flickr, Blogger, YouTube etc) to host your content. I want something inbetween that is configured to suit the way I work rather than something that is too generic. I also don’t want Google or Microsoft to end up owning all my content. Google may well be a friendly caring sharing company now, but it may not remain that way, but it will still have all my content and all my data.
