Free Web-Space!

Not sure where to post this, but I thought here would be as good a place as any (and sorry if this is terribly long-winded).

What with all the 503 errors recently and Spud and Jb's explanation, I set about uploading all my old entries to my web-site, but unfortunately I only have 200mb free space, and the total tracks I had on there took it to 221mb, so obviously I needed more space, I then stumbled across a site called 'eSnips' (link below) and to be honest it gives you 1gb of free space which you can link to from you own web-site, so therefore 'hey presto!'

So if anybody's in need of some extra space to work as an adendum to their original site's or just looking for somewhere to place their music, art, whatever then it seems pretty good, it's 1gb and it's free!

(if you'd like to check it out then try clicking on the link below to my site and then by clicking on any of my songfight entries you'll get a good idea of how it's structured and if it'd be any use to you... and no! this isn't a shameless ad! :) )

Okay hope this is useful to somebody, all the best, Nigel (spOOn).

I set up a page:

http://www.esnips.com/web/kingarthur/

...and I'll test fly by putting up some of the songfight stuff I recorded in the past but never submitted.

Since this is "esnips beta," my guess is that at some point they'll want to start charging for it, and also, since you use an email address as your login, I suppose my spamflow will increase for a while... but, y'know, a gig of free space holds a lot of files, so we'll see how it goes...

Edit: note that the upload page does NOT work with netscape; the "upload" button and some other stuff that does appear in MSIE does not appear in netscape (7.2).
