22gigs free hosting raises the question:

Will you still love me tomorrow?

Another free hosting pack just up, complete with lip smacking quotas. 22gigs disk space; 1000MB Bandwidth – and there’s an ftp access – all for nothing.

So…its not bad is it? What do you want for your money nothing?hébergement gratuit

It takes 3 minutes to sign up, one minute later you’ve an empty folder on-line with a temporary ftp address until there’s something in it, then a permanent one is assigned. Use a subdomain name.22gigs.com or direct your own domain name. Upgrade/pay for more space, mo everythin’.

Which I can only imagine is what they are hoping some folk will do. But that’s part of the problem as I see it, in fact it’s catch 22. The more you make the ground floor offer attractive, hoping to stand out from the other freebie offers out there: the freetard crowd you’ve attracted will be less prone to move up.

Then it all goes pear shaped. Just as it did for My5gb.com who kicked-off in May and nose-dived in June. Now all they’re hosting is a redirect to a search engine.

So whether it be for testing or tasting or sandboxing – keep copies!
