So I've been writing my blog for about 3 1/2 years now. I've made smaller and little changes over time but it has been mostly the same since it's inception excluding web design. However, one of the items that I've constantly battled with is storage. I chose not to host my blog on blogger.com when I first started it, as I wanted more control as well as more storage (I don't recall what their limit was when I first started but it wasn't much). This was fine for a while when one day I could not longer post to my blog. After a little investigation, I found out it was because the FTP site for my account was full. At the time I contacted Comcast about increasing the storage (I was even willing to pay!) but that was not an option. Lucky for me, with your Comcast account, you get several "free" e-mail accounts that all have their own FTP storage. So I was able to setup a dummy account and upload content to it's storage area. Well, in the last 2-3 months, it happened again so I had to create another dummy account and change my settings to start uploading content to it. However, with my own account, two dummy accounts, and 3 accounts for my family, I only had one account left to use. I was beginning to think that I was going to need to purchase another (cheap) box just to host my blog. However, just today, I got an e-mail from Comcast saying that they have upgraded the personal storage for all accounts: Comcast is upgrading the Personal Web Pages product to include up to 40 times more online storage than before! As part of the product upgrade, your online storage will automatically increase from 25 MB up to 1,000 MB per Comcast.net e-mail address - that's a full gigabyte - at no additional cost. And if you have opened secondary Comcast.net e-mail addresses for your account you will get 1 GB of online storage for each of them. Just last night when I did my post, I had a video that I wanted to upload but as it was 16MB, I didn't want to chew up over half of the personal storage on the latest account I created so I just skipped it. Now, I should be able to move everything back to a single location and update my blog. Then I will be able to kill the dummy accounts I created until I eat up more than 1 GB for my blog. |
