Apart from the 1MG of SQL space I have 400 MB of regular web space to work
with. Trust me, web space ain't an issue. :-)

I'm currently using Micro$chmuck FrontPage and Macromedia Fireworks to
maintain sanctuaryweb.org (my own home page) and ume.sanctuaryweb.org (a site
in development for our local Marriage Encounter community) and have a couple
of additional virtual hosts set up for 'experimenting'. I'm also dabbling
with mobile web (WML/iMode/cHTML) and am thinking about doing something with
an XML engine that will render the information according to the type of
browser that's viewing the page without having to manually create separate
sites (one in HTML and one in WML/cHTML). I'm also starting to do some stuff
in DocBook that I'm trying to render server-side for internal use.
