Here's a useful and exciting thing to discover on my return from TechEd:  EasyStreeet is offering Free .NET Hosting for Developers.   It's Six Months Free with the .NET Framework 1.1, with ASP.NET, all the BCL (of course), and support for Web Services.

I've been looking around at inexpensive but powerful ASP.NET Hosting to get some of my other small projects off the ground (in addition to www.diabeticbooks.com and www.pioneercourthousesquare.com among others) and this looks like a deal that's too sweet to pass up...might be a nice way to start testing out some blogging and RSS aggregation thoughts, as well as some No-Touch-Deploy WinForms.

All you have to do is email them to get setup:

To submit your request: email your name, company name, email and phone number to NETPlayground@easystreet.com.
