Hosting: where to go, where to go


Monday, August 18, 2008

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

So after about 2 months on slicehost, I have yet to finish setting up my server. It seems to be the busy season and I’ve only been able to finish my local servers.

So to recap I know have a media temple box and a slicehost box. Now to further complicate the situation after much debate / research I’m looking at linode: linode.com.title="http://www.linode.com.www.linode.com. />
Why linode?

  1. They use Intel processors
  2. More ram, space, bandwidth
  3. better control panel
  4. better vps management

That said slicehost has been great for information. I’m not a fan of their forums but they do have great tutorials.

Why slicehost?

  1. They seem slightly more stable
  2. Made by developers for developers
  3. First impressions

…. so that said, sorry for the lack of new tutorials, code, broken templates, etc

And now to see about canceling one of these damn server

    Hey Tom Thanks,

    I ended up leaving due the lack of a centos 64 image. Would love to take another look once linode has one
