I did the same about a year ago and overall I'm quite pleased. After a year they're bugging me to renew whois-cloaking thing on namecheap, but orders of magnitude less irritating than godaddy in all sorts of ways.

Bah, learn to read or at least to skim with some accuracy. It's tongue in cheek, and the point of the article (as stated early on) is that when changing tools there are always advantages and disadvantages. The author then goes on to demonst

Seems fairly uncontroversial to me, but I'm not in the target demographic yet. Can anyone enlighten me as to why reading Kipling to a child might be considered "recklessness" these days?

There's no root access and might not suit you, but the answer to "what hosting do [I] use for personal projects?" is Google App Engine. It's really very convenient and easy for small things. (e.g. http://h4ck3r.net/ , http://skulpt.org/ )

The new tab page is not the home page. In Chrome you have to explicitly turn on the "Home page" button, and it has a separate URL. So, you basically never see your home page in Chrome, just the new tab page, which you can only customize via

Looks like a lot of the Yaletown loft offices in Vancouver. I prefer some walls and more monitors, myself. But, I get the impression the advertising-y, designer-y type folks are happier with that style of setup.
