Migrating from Google Sites — Part 2

Initially I was planning on this being a multi-part bitch session.  How I don’t like things A,B, and C in WordPress, how this and how that would be better the following way, and so forth.

But then I realized that I am tired of hearing myself complain.  So here is the summary of my experience:

I think that it is just about magical that:

• some one like me can have a private server connected to the world wide network called the Internet …
• hosting a site that for all intents and purposes looks and acts fairly polished and professional …
• that is accessible by just about everyone in the world …
• and is only limited by my own creativity

And all that, for less than a dollar a day.  I know that you don’t believe me, so I will prove it using MATH and FACTS.

• Virtual Private Server for hosting this whole thing — $199.95/year
• .com domain name — $12/year
• My time — $worthless

So $199.95 + $12 per year.  $211.95/365 = $0.58 per day.

58 cents per day to have your own spouting-off platform.  We’re truly living in the future.
