I’ve decided to get an account with Amazon S3 – Simple Storage Service. It seems like it could be fairly handy if I wanted to host anything remotely large or requested frequently. Hmm… I plan to doing some stuff about the Touhou game, Immaterial and Missing Power, maybe I’ll try it out with that. Theoretically, I could also use it to store backups of my photos and such, at 0.15 cents per month per GB of storage, it’s not bad.

Google and Good Search
A while back a project called GoodSearch was brought to my attention where every search you made donated about one cent to the charity of your choosing. This search happens to be based on Yahoo search so there’s not much incentive to return IMHO. So I set up a little thing that let’s me search both simultaneously. Basically I store both in a frame and then hand off the query string from my app to both. It has it’s drawbacks of course, like individual results are opened in the same frame for instance. No matter, it killed some time. It’s stored at https://rrbits.com/gs/
