I tried using My Opera to store my files before I bought my own host.

The thing that pushed me away was mostly the lack of FTP and PHP support.

Disk is getting so cheap... I remember when you used to get 5MB free. That was only about 12 years ago or something.

Remember when Gmail's 1 gig of storage was an April Fool's joke?

Greg Smithgregsmithsays Friday, August 14, 2009 2:35:51 AM

or when it was practically impossible to download 1MB

Gyrobo Friday, August 14, 2009 2:43:57 AM

Youtube was impossible then.

I still have a cache of MIDIs on my drive somewhere. vanBasco's is still the best player around.

- Youtube was 'black & white'
and it was literally YOU and the TUBE

I actually have a CD of old commercials from the 60s that I got before Youtube. They're probably all up there by now.

You collect commercials from the '60s? Seems like kind of an odd hobby for someone as young as you...
They are interesting to look at. I think one quality of commercials from that far back was that there wasn't a whole lot of enforcement as to the validity of certain claims being made...

- unlike today

I only bought the CD because it was supposed to have a shot of the Flintstones smoking cigarettes.

It promised more than it delivered.

Joseph D. Lienjdlien Friday, August 14, 2009 7:09:34 PM

The Flintstones from the Stoner Age?

Gyrobo Friday, August 14, 2009 8:08:54 PM
