Irritating pattern: 1. A free(mium) hosted service becomes popular 2. It inevitably goes down one day 3. I hear about it from every blog, tweet, and news site.

I have always hosted my own email and webserver so when it goes down, instead of blogging about it and complaining, I just fix it.

I run my own power station if it ever goes down, instead of complaining I just replace the spent fuel rods.

Wow, thats pretty lame, I use biofuel for everything, I stick plants in one side and my computer comes on. I have to find new suns periodically...
