so I JUST PAID 700 Euro for tickets to LA !!
I know its a lot, but i have a budget of 2500 Euro, i already bought the domain name website. but without the hosting. so I’m going to LA to meet with a web design company.

I need a social network where people can be members and sign up, plus it needs a video format like youtube my own video format with the logo on it and sound file like the one of sound cloud.

Please tell me what i can hear, I’m afraid to hear big prices. because I’m still a student and i only have 2500 Euro which is 3345 $

Im doing all of this and I’m going for it completely, its like my life hangs out of it and its my dream to make this website. Its a big social network which is going to be a really new hit. And i believe in it.

So, how much would they ask for money, Plus the website is connected to a Dutch domain service, without hosting,
Are the people in LA helpful ?, Maybe i can move it to godaddy.com or any other server.
Should i switch it first to a hosting package or should i wait and see what they will say ?

Im going alone to LA, And I’m staying in my friends garage,
so I’m doing all of this just to reach my goal. So if you won’t motivate me and bring me down please don’t say anything.

Thank You

It’s great to have goals, but if they are unattainable you’ll create your own disappointment. Trying to set up the sort of project you have in mind is probably going to need a budget of hundreds of thousands, and with no guarantee of success.

Be very clear what you are trying to achieve and then see if anyone else is already doing it…I think Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube might have got there first!

Elastic computing is a tool to scale your computer power up and down as needed. It’s related to time-share, but instead of one large mainframe to rent server time on, you’re given a large cloud of servers to rent or share. You can script the start and closing of additional nodes, to match your use of the cloud to demand for the services those nodes offer.

The important distinction between elastic compute clouds and normal hosting is provisioning. Imagine you run a website that publishes football scores, and you’re very popular. To make a profit you need to keep the website responsive under heavy load. We’re talking Superbowl heavy load. Constant refreshes and sustained traffic for hours. In order to meet that goal, you could buy a massive server farm that can handle Superbowl traffic, and let them sit mostly idle during the off-season. Or you could buy server time from an elastic compute cloud to make up the difference. Normal hosting services may choose to simply fail during high load, with catastrophic effects on your Superbowl revenue. They may even kick you off for too much CPU use or network traffic.

Economically, cloud computing allows for full employment of servers. Rather than have everyone buy lots of beefy hardware in case of Slashdot, the hardware that would serve Slashdotters can migrate to the sites that need it (and pay for it). Combined with economies of scale, we can expect that large compute farms may become cheaper than hosted or colocated solutions. If APIs are created to migrate servers between clouds, additional competitive forces may help drive prices towards marginal costs; hence the chasm between Amazon and the Cloud Computing Bill of Rights. Some are proposing a cloud marketplace, where cloud computing is bought and sold by principles of supply and demand. This would encourage people to shift compute power to off peak hours, as we see with cell phone plans and industrial use of electricity.

The reasons to stay away from cloud computing are twofold: price, and privacy. None of the above guarantees cloud computing will be cheaper than your current solution. You may be fine with failure during Superbowl events. Or it may be cheaper for you to build and buy your own servers and datacenter. Alternatively, you may have data you would prefer not reside in the hands of anonymous cloud vendors whose security and technology may leak information about your service or your customers. The last part means you may in fact be legally impaired from implementing cloud computing, as the cloud vendor has access to your disk and RAM.

For example, Boldhosts http://www.boldhosts.com/ has both cloud and normal hosting. They are using cloudlinux operating system which makes them to provide dedicated environment within shared environment to clients. Such operating system enables your sites to run faster and if any of your fellow client in shared environment is consuming resources it would make their site slow not yours. With the operating system cloudlinux they are using litespeed web server which enables your website to run 900 times faster, so you can say that their hosting is one of the fastest in this world. They accept 10 payment gateways that include Liberty Reserve, Pecunix, WebMoney, AlertPay, Money Bookers, Perfect Money, Western Union etc

I stared at the rippling sky blue water. The surface danced with the iridescence of diamonds, plucking at the edges of my reflection with a fragile touch as the current pulled the babbling water downstream. Faded images of soft sea grass wiped away the imperfections from my wavering image. Perfection stared back at me. I picked up a sand polished stone from the river bank and turned it over in my palm. The surface was a flawless canvas. I closed my hand around the stone and tried to picture defacing it. Cracks coiled outwards like a spider web. The glowing honey-amber color began to fade and dark scars were scratched into its tormented face. Yet, as quick as the imperfections appeared, they receded into their host.
I opened my hand. The stone remained as the stone began. Perfect. Not even my mind could break the hold it had on my life. With a half hearted throw I tossed the stone into the river. It broke through the surface with ease, shattering my perfect face into puzzle pieces. Moments later the picture was once again mocking me. No gash across my face. No blood. No scars. No trace.
I was tired of looking perfection in the eyes. Yet I could never look away. Everywhere I turned I saw it; dazzling, beautiful, mesmerizing perfection. The sky was so blue; too blue. It was like someone had pulled a paint brush across a page to create a coating of unblemished color. The clouds were crafted of woven silk and dipped in creamy ivory. Each blade of grass shimmered with a glow that could only be described as unbelievable. The air I breathed managed to acquire perfection; the ideal balance of oxygen and nitrogen that allowed life to be lived to its fullest. Even my own reflection was bound by its harsh laws. I was a prisoner.

That’s FANTASTIC.

Wonderful imagery, description, variance of sentence structure, and flow. I love the second paragraph. Continue writing! Good luck.

It seems to be connected to the "broadcom netlink gigabit ethernet" thing, Found this in the event log around the time of the error.

I think it may be a virus because I get redirected to weird web pages sometimes or they just open in a new tab, i tried the panda cloud antivirus but i dont think it worked

hm

My web app is ran with the top dedicated-server plan from my host. I received a message from the host saying that I had ran out of bandwidth, but would temporarily continue to host anyway, but I would need to find a new server solution soon. The site is generating good revenue and is my living, but I don’t know where to go from here. I wouldn’t have a clue on buying my own hardware and rigging it up and whatnot. I’ve heard of cloud networks, but don’t really know anything about them. Is that where to go from here, or what other options are available? Thank you very much in advance.

Thank you in advance.

I assume you mean that you are using your contracted volume each month.

You don’t need your own hardware. You need a new host/ISP or negotiate a new plan with your existing supplier.

If your existing host also wrote/designed your site, then you need to refer to your contract as to who owns the name, content etc.

To use a new supplier, give them access to you web pages and tell them your usage rates. They should be able to tell you what is involved in migrating.

This computer will house all backups of my documents and pictures, and my website is a forum based site, and more then likely run a game server on it as well down the road.

So please be as detailed as you can, I am computer literate, however more details makes it easier for me to follow.

Also, using a linksys router, not sure what i have to do with that…..

Thanks in advance!!!!

Download apache tomcat.

Unzip it.

Run the apache-tomcat/bin/startup.exe

Now go to http://localhost:8080

You are running your own server! Now you have to program html files for it.

To get it on the web, you sadly need to call your ISP and have them open port 80. It will cost you some money since they think you are running a business. Or you can get hosting from bluehost or godaddy (although godaddy is hard to use and doesn’t host files, it just reserves your domain).
