Microsoft Hosting Summit - See all our Event Photos
I've been including bits and pieces here in the blog, where appropriate, but I thought it would be worth reiterating, after the fact, that along with the written coverage from the event - and some excellent upcoming video coverage - we took a lot of pictures.
The whole purpose of that, of course, was so that our readers could check them out online. And I'd like to make sure you can do that.
There is now quite a long list of pictures in the Microsoft Hosting Summit 2008 photo set on the WHIR's Flickr page, including coverage of the general event atmosphere, exhibits, in-session shots and images from the networking events at Lucky Strike Lanes on Tuesday and The Parlor on Wednesday.
I'll include a few more pictures in this post, but you can go here to view the whole set.

In recent months we've been giving added attention to the kind of practical and applicable advice aimed at smaller hosts and resellers. This issue carries on with that point of view, asking, in our cover story, "what am I worth?" It's a complicated question without a clear-cut answer.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered.
