Hey guys, completely voluntary but I thought I'd ask because I'm curious
For personal use, how many of you use something like linode or slicehost
or an individual provider?
If you do use a provider which one is it?
For me, I do use one and I use slicehost.

I currently use slicehost. I've been thinking of switching to linode
because you get more bang for your buck, but my laziness will probably
make me not switch.

I use westhost, now purchased by UK2.net. It's a VPS, with something
less that full root access, running something like RHEL4 + vserver
(container-based virt), but it's cheap enough for what I do with it.

Nope. I run my stuff out of my basement. :)

slicehost provides me a dedicated virtual guest. Not much ram but I use
it to host my wife's website, zodbot (go zodbot go!) and a screen + irssi
session where all my irc stuff happens.

For those who are out of touch with this whole "new Internet thing"
what do you use these sites for?
Personal email server, website, offsite backup for my laptop, irssi so I
can permanently lurk on irc, etc.

1. a machine in my house would draw a lot more power than the portion of a
machine I get with slicehost
2. keeping that running all the time so my email works would take a lot
more effort than I currently put out with the slicehost
3. I have a remote site I'm reasonably confident will be up and
functional, useful for traceroutes, etc.
4. Offsite backups have saved my ass before, learn them, live them, love
them :)

For me, I do use one and I use slicehost.
Used to host mine at home on a desktop, but upload speed was very
limited, luckily I work at an ISP.
I'm running a vnc server on it with a lot of terminals open to other
servers and I'm connecting to it from home, kinda like a jump server
(ssh tunnel + vncserver on localhost ftw). Mail, DNS, couple of
websites, torrent tracker, some cacti.
Sidenote: I'm managing 1-2 dedicated servers at rackspace, and I'm
pretty satisfied with them.
