sarah made a handout!

sarah didn't have expression engine on the list, so i googled it. www.pmachine.com keith at scrine has just switched to this package and has started designing for some (me, for instance). he might be a good resource for questions about this package (check out scrine.com)

ecto, qumana, etc.

don't spend more than $10 a year for a domain name

domain registry of america is a scam, don't pay any attention to their letters. use autorenew on your service, instead. consider not paying for more than a year in advance because prices keep going down.

don't pay more than $5-$10 a month for hosting. if somebody recommends a host to you, check them out on webhostingtalk.com

for personal, nonprofit and artistic stuff: laughingsquid.com

another thing: don't go with anybody who isn't recommended to you.
