It’s easy to remember to complain when something is terrible, but it’s much harder to remember to praise when something is great.

I absolutely love my web host. Dreamhost.com makes it so easy. I am pretty good with computers and figuring things out, but even with the help of my good friend Harper I can’t always understand everything I need to know to run my websites. Dreamhost spells it all out, and has a great sense of humor about what they do. Also, they do a really good job of playing to all levels of knowledge. It’s clear that they really know what they are talking about, AND they have that rare and valuable understanding that not everyone else knows what they are talking about. I truly have no complaints so far with Dreamhost.

Partly I’m writing about Dreamhost because they are great, and if you are thinking about changing hosts, or starting a web presence, I can’t recommend them highly enough. The other reason I’m writing is that if you click this banner, which names me as the referrer, I get paid. Everybody wins.

I would recommend Dreamhost to anyone who asked, even without the referral program, it’s just that this program is what got me going to actually write about it. So if you need hosting, click the banner and sign up. You won’t regret it.

In a mad blitz, my friend Matiss and I played 50 rounds of WeeWar tonight. It was amazing. One of the great things about WeeWar is that it is turn-based. That way you can play with a bunch of people, and they can just take their turn when they are able to, rather than everyone having to be online at the same time. So that means that normally people only play a few rounds a day… not fifty. Needless to say, I’m a little cooked right now, but this definitely scratched the WeeWar itch that was plaguing me.

We’re playing a particularly ridiculous game at the moment where we have limited the units to Guys for me and Tanks for Matiss. I cleverly called it “Guys vs. Tanks”.  You can see the game here.
