DreamHost, I love you—10:16 PM
I don't need new blogs to read. I have plenty. We all do. There are now at least nine blogs on the Internet for every man, woman, and child alive on the planet.
But the DreamHost Blog is fun enough (and sporadic enough) to earn a spot in my regular rotation. You have to love people who love what they do, do it well, and do it confidently enough to be playful and open about it rather than sounding stuffy and corporate just because their competitors do. Their spanking-new blog is an extension of their giddy monthly newsletter in that regard – breezy, fearlessly informative, and fun to read.
That's why I don't mind paying 2000% markup – it's still among the best prices available, and along with the fun and casual culture you get excellent service, super-smooth account management tools, handfuls of add-ons... and more! Between myself and various friends/co-workers/freelance clients, I've sampled a lot of the web hosting companies out there, and DreamHost is by far the best I've encountered. Switch to DreamHost. Tell 'em I sent you.

Also, I can't stop laughing at this frame from My New Filing Technique Is Unstoppable, excerpted on the DreamHost blog in their entry of the same name:
You have to love the fearlessness of posting that on your corporate blog for all to see.
