If you are coming to Austin for SXSW 2010, I’m looking to interview real people and companies who are changing and reinventing their businesses using hosting.
I’ll be there March 12 – 16.
Managed. Dedicated. Cloud. Hybrid. And all points between, reach out to me: alan at dedicatedhosting dot com and I’ll reach out to you to schedule our meeting.
Be sure to follow on Twitter.
Yesterday, there was a big announcement by The National Science Foundation and Microsoft Corporation where they agreed to offer American scientific researchers free access to the company’s new cloud computing service.
No, I am not proposing you offer free space on your servers to the National Science Foundation.
Rather, this an opportunity for you to do good in your community with the hosted or managed server or cloud service you are using. Call social server meets social good.
Leading hosting companies comprised of Rackspace, Peer1, GoGrid, The Planet and ServInt, have joined forces to show their support for the crisis in Haiti with the creation of HostingForHaiti.com
- If you have not given yet, give here via the American Red Cross.
- Donate a small bit of real estate on your blog or web site with a link to Hosting for Haiti so others can find you and join in with their financial support.
- Use the hashtag – #hostingforhaiti and tweet this cause up on twitter
Happy 2010!
With a new year before you, it means new opportunities and ways to re-think how you do business going forward.
If you are using dedciated hosting services and have a story you want to share, or are in the process of transitioning to dedicated hosting, I’d love to hear your story and have you be a part of the conversation. We’re looking for more stories to tell and share with our readers and you could make headlines with your story.
Please submit your story here.
