Do You Have The Best Web Host?

I’m glad I have.  And not only that, my web host (GoDaddy) ranked 8th out of ten best web hosts in 2008.  This is a gratifying truth as I’ve had this web host for three years now.  When hubby and I moved from my old web host, it was merely for the reasons of costs and service.  It was the cheapest host we could find in the web and we couldn’t even remember now how we landed on it’s website.  But I’ve found out from web hosting geeks that it’s not the cheapest at all. It came out as the most expensive based on top ten list.  The option to move to another host is in my thought but the fact that I’m not having any problem with my host is something I feel comfortable with.  Moreso, I should find out more from web hosting geeks the features and reviews of other web hosting provider.

While I was thinking about moving to another web host, I remember I have one registered domain name that hubby haven’t assigned a web host yet.  Now that I’ve discovered the different web host around through web hosting geeks, I thought of trying the service of Green Web Hosting.  And don’t you even think green as something illicit because green is all about environmental affairs, too.  I had no idea what web hosting has got to do with the environment until I’ve read that this sort of web hosts use alternative energy and RECs to power their datacenters.  Sounds interesting!

Check how good your web host is on web hosting geeks. You may be surprised when you read the user reviews. But no growling because you can compare it with other web hosting and it’s yours to decide.

I Am A Cute Blogger

cutes-blog-award

Is it obvious? :-) Well, according to Eds who tagged me with this Cute Blogger Award. This is my first tag for this year, thanks to her.

The rules:
1.  Each blogger must post these rules.
2.  Each blogger starts with ten random facts/habits about themselves.
3.  Bloggers that are tagged need to write ten facts about themselves. Pass on this tag to ten bloggers.

Ten random facts about me. Let’s see if these could justify me being a cute blogger.  Or I might need help for my acute lost of words to describe myself. 

1.  I wash my face with my right hand only.

2.  I can go out to work without combing my hair.

3.  I despise olives. I can’t stand the taste being too sour and too salty.

4.  I like reminiscing funny moments that sometimes I found myself laughing for nothing. This is kind of embarrassing when I’m on the bus.

5.  I can be thrifty, I can be extravagant. My mood for shopping just strikes me once in a while.

6.  My friends can trust me with their money. I was the money-keeper even when I was in high school. And years ago here, I kept my friends money for a monthly savings.

7.  I’m hopeless at drawing.  Long ago, I drew a tree for my then 2yo-nephew and when it was half-way to be done, he shouted, “that’s a hand!”.

8.  I’m a desperate guitarist and keyboard player.  I’ve tried to master a piece on both instruments but the chords and notes just don’t get in my mind.

9.  I don’t have a passion for cooking but I can whip a buffet if I want to.

10.  I keep quiet when I’m angry.  Talking just makes me even more angry.

I’m passing this tag to Maiah, Amor, Catherine, Sweetiepie, Joy, Myrtle, Jerico, Jessie, You and You.

About To Be Disposed Of

There’s one precious possession that sooner or later I’ll be disposing of.  Not that I’m getting tired of it.  In fact, it’s my favorite red little thing that goes lightly in my hands and in my handbag.  Hubby bought this three years ago when it was the latest in the market.  Oh, how I fancied the color so much it would make me feel so girly.  It has been serving me in my photography attemp for three years now.  But the reason why I’m going to stop using my Konica Minolta Dimage X1 is that the battery life is becoming short.  If I am not mistaken, this is the last compact camera that KM had produced.  It didn’t obtain a remarkable review however, except the then modern and appealing design, the 2,5 LCD-screen, high pic resolution and the picture stabilisator.

I’ve noticed that the battery life has disappointed me in several occasions when it showed the red battery sign on the screen after using it for less than an hour. It usually sits on the dock station (charger) so it’s impossible I could use it without being fully charged. To buy a new compact digicam has been in my plan but I’m skeptical. I couldn’t be so sure as to quality, battery life, functions and other useful features. Think about how many names of digicams coming out every now and then. Each of them couldn’t have all the features I need. Because of the diminishing quality of my digicam, I’m forced to bring hubby’s Canon PS G7, which is a bit bigger and thicker than any compact digicam. I’d love to know which compact digicam that has better tech details is in the market or coming out soon.
