yeah, but you don't have to provide a credit card # when you sign up. and that legalese is no different than any other webspace contract.

lol.
for the last time. It's free.
trust me. I don't pay for anything!

So you will charge $30 an hour for your work, but you won't pay someone $10 a month for decent hosting?
If the service is good and nothing goes wrong, would you still move if they asked for money? If so, where would you move to? Another host that will charge you money? Or another free host?
Is it worth the hassle?
Just curious...

Not that I am not all over this... I am signing up right now.
But if their service is good, and they start to ask for money, then I will consider given I don't have the time to waste on looking for hosting every week.
=)
Free is good!!!

fresh..
If my webpage had ANY intended purpose... then yes, I wouldn't mind paying.
You're making me feel like I'm ripping them off. Shit... everyone knows webpages don't even last for 3 years.
They just disappear! :)

Gorbie,
Sorry, didn't mean to make you feel that way. My comment was more in the sense that people were quick to point out the "charge" factor in this.
They took a look at the legal information before noticing that they weren't even asking for CC information. Not to mention that others had already mentioned it was free and that it was working good.
Just don't understand the attitude here at times. Fonts are stollen, progs are stollen, web hosting is nagged at if it is free and not as good as what they are paying for, but then we all complain when someone posts about free work.
knawmean?
No biggie, I'm a customer... good for posting client projects for testing.
word!

in 3 years the chances of earning thousands of new clients when the accounts end are much bigger than with other kind of special offers or discounts, so I guess it's a very good strategy... having knownk that its a big and stable corporate behind
