SpaceRich Networks – My Review
SpaceRich Networks have been around since late 2005. They are a provider of shared hosting, reseller hosting, VPS, dedicated servers and domain registration services.
This blog is currently hosted on one of their unmetered German VPS packages. The package includes 25GB RAID protected disk space, 10Mbps unmetered bandwidth along with 256MB RAM – 384MB Burst RAM.
I signed up with SpaceRich after seeing them mentioned on the popular VPS discussion blog, LowEndBox. After reading through some reviews from other clients regarding slow speeds on the German nodes – I was debating between the US and DE service. After a long hard think of about an hour after reading other reviews on the internet I decided to go with the German VPS.
After payment via PayPal (2CheckOut) I received confirmation of payment instantly via email. Within about a minute I had my VPS details email to me and was logged into SolusVM.
First thing I wanted to do was test the network speed. I logged into the server via SSH and download a 100MB file from a CDN. I was expecting speeds of 10Mbps only to find I was able to download at an amazing 10.5MB/s on this test file. I was told by support that the bandwidth on my VPS was burstable to 100Mbps if no other users was using any bandwidth – I was chuffed!
I updated the Debian system an upgraded all required installations only taking a couple of minutes. I installed the LowEndBox script which installs all the required servers to run a WordPress blog. I was amazed that the script was able to get my website running on only 30MB of RAM whilst idle and around 48MB of RAM under a little load. The usage doesn’t really rise much under heavier load. Anyone wanting to use this script can find it here.
I’ve only experienced down time once since I’ve purchasex my VPS (just over a week ago) due to a DDoS attack. SpaceRich mitigated it within 15 minutes and all was working fine after.
Support is generally speedy. Responses are made to my tickets between 30 and 60 minutes and have satisfying answers.

The All New Google Buzz

The search giant google has finally released competition to try and take over the social networking scene with google BUZZ! It is only available to gmail (google mail) users only! It has very many similarity to its rival service Twitter with the ability to “follow” people and to post updates on what you are doing.
You can also link your Flickr, Twitter and Picasa accounts so your updates your google buzz account! Google buzz certainly does have a buzz about it. Although google buzz is in its testing period it has been released to all gmail users. Could it take over twitter or even facebook? I personally do not think so but i am sure google will give it ago.
You can also use google buzz on your mobile! It has already entered into the mobile market. But has google finally figured out social media? So everyone is asking the question? Why has google buzz embraced so many users? Maybe its down to the fact that it was released to its 120 million google mail users. Google has already starting taking a chunk of users from its popular rival services.
Google buzz is an amazing service from google and if you haven’t tried it yet, what are you waiting for?
