10-Oct-2007 - Seeking for some free web hosting and/or file hosting services,
found a lot of low quality services with shitty slogans and ugly ads.
---
Found good imo file hosting service, http://4shared.com - the only
disatvantage is that the links arent working directly and require small
subset of JavaScript to be supported by the browser, but it will gonna
work with all modern Amiga web browsers, so no fear.
---
Found also web hosting service, this is http://cyberspace.org, i think
this is it, no bloody ads or other crap, im limited however with the
disk space to 1 megabyte, but it will suffice :) Two images, the front
one and the logo are hosted by http://mooload.com, free file hosting
service with that difference to http://4shared that there is no
need for an account and they promise to not delete my files.

Used http://dyndns.com to add hostname http://willthissurvive.ath.cx
