I had a dial up ISP up until June and because as I added pages to my site, it got larger and larger, the ISP wanted $10 per month per 10MB to keep it on their site anymore. Since I refuse to put ads and popup crap on my site and the info there was all free for the taking by any visitor, I couldn't see spending over $60 per month for a site with them.
I went back to Starband satellite modem service and they only give 10MB for a site also, and wanted to charge a bundle for that extra as well, so instead
I've been revamping my site little by little, making it more efficient than I had before (that site was my first attempt at a site and learned alot on the fly), and have been shopping around for a better deal. Wayne has graciously offered his server as a home for me, and once I'm ready to upload it and I know how much room on his server I will eat up, I'll let him make the decision if I've got more than he anticipated and give me a thumbs down or "let's roll".
I'll be emailing you and a bunch of other people with the new location sometime in the next couple of weeks, I hope. If starband will let me be my own server without giving me crap about it, I could set that up easily here with a couple of huge extra harddrives I have. I'm negotiating that possible option now, too.
As for my Favorites, they are all organized by alpha letter and then subfoldered for groups.....pretty organized actually and I use the LINKS toolbar heavily for frequent sites like all the CNET forums.
Quite a few of the old Favorites are links to webgraphics, tips, how-tos, backgrounds, buttons, scripts, etc. that I saved during my web-building and a number of them can be dumped now.
Weeding them all out with the deadlink program has helped me know that I don't have to waste my time checking on some of them just to make sure a site still has what I want. I also just discovered that somewhere along the line ten of my alpha folders got duplicated into another Favorites folder so I was able to delete all of those duplicates and cut it back down again by another 300-400 links. Down to around 1000 now. LOL
