Well here's something for ya.

And it has VC to boot! --- :^) I post it here because for me, a free
service actually works.

I paid good money for my Vanagon .mac site. I can't completely upload
my web site to it anymore. My understanding if I PAY to upgrade my Mac
publishing software, it will work. Which sucks. I shouldn't have to do
that to be able to simply upload.

My FREE googlpages, is awesome. True it's limited, and sometimes
clunky to use, but for the purposes of getting Vanagon pics/text/small
videos up, it's really useful. I have tons of LQ images up and text,
and have only used about 11% of my 100 MB.

Not taking issue here, but sometimes free is ok. Plus, IMHO, I think
it's spam and subsequent spam filters, that are slowing up emails.

True though. Complaining about it here doesn't help.

Just my uneducated .02!

Neil.
