DOO-dee-DOO-dee-DOO-dee-DOO-dee-DOO-dee-DOO-dee-DOO-dee...
"It's still on Channel Four! It's STILL ON CHANNEL FOUR!!!!"
I got an
aside-link from one of my
blog-buddies. This makes me giddy to no end.
(In case you're wondering what an "aside-link" is, you just saw two of them.)
I've been having trouble FTPing to my webspace (which I'm keeping the
Spudnuts mp3s on)--my webspace is with
Charter Communications, who I have my cable modem service with--so basically, I'm paying for it.
I emailed tech support about it, and I got this back:
You are allowed 10 MB of webspace on our servers, it looks as if you are exceeding this.
Thanks
Ten?
Ten?!?
This didn't sound right to me (and I spent most of last night looking for an indication as to how much space I had--and couldn't find it).
To put this in perspective, Geocities gives away fifteen meg for
free.
So, I send another email to the same Charter Rep, asking if there's any way to get any more space, and I get this back:
No, unfortunately we only offer the 10Mb of webspace.
Thank you
Uh...huh?
You'd think they'd want to sell me some more web space, but no, it's "you'l take your ten meg and
like it."
The fuck?
As I've said, Charter is like the University Of Wisconsin-Madison, in that every dealing with either of them guarantees a splitting headache.
Basically, the only reason anyone deals with Charter in the first place, is that we don't have a fraggin' choice.
Anyway, now I'm gonna shop around for webspace.
