Emptybottle.org: Keep The Bird Burning

Jonathon is organizing a campaign to help Shelley - who's got her back to the wall financially at the moment - keep weblogging. To lose her voice would diminish us all... if you offered to kick some money into a 'save the wonderchicken' fund, which I didn't end up needing, you might consider dropping it into a 'save the Burningbird' fund instead. It would be a Good Thing To Do.

i'm curious as to what sort of bandwidth both you and your friend at burningbird are using each month (not many personal weblogs use more than a single gig per month) and why you don't use a webhosting company that offers unlimited bandwidth as i do...? is it just a matter of not having found a company that does offer unlimited or are you guys just seriously, tapped out broke at the moment...? webhosting doesn't have to be very expensive so it always confounds me when i see people worrying about "going dark"...

i meant to also say that if you're only using 2-3 gigs per month i could easily handle hosting either of you if you run into trouble again in the future. the main reason why i hold on to my domain these days (having lost all interest in hobby webdesign) is to continue the free hosting i've always offered.
