Surpass Hosting caught my eye this week thanks to a tweet from @LissaKay. Claiming some 30,000 customers, Surpass ran a 3-day promotion offering one year of hosting for only $1.00! My frugal mouse-clicking fingers couldn’t resist.

Yesterday, I worked diligently to move CaseyPeters.com to its new home in hopes of providing better uptime and performance to my vast audience of two readers that I entertain on a weekly basis. With my new Power plan I’ll get to enjoy 500GB of storage, unmetered bandwidth and a 99.9% uptime guarantee. w00t!

…the market is built to run ideas into the ground, before introducing fresh, commercially viable ideas. This is frustrating.

They’re like those people at networking functions who smile too much, hand out hundreds of business cards and sprint away if they think you might not buy their stuff.

If my parents had only known how I’d turn out they would have made my middle name “Frugal”. Let’s just say I didn’t join the text message revolution until a few months ago.

But when my Motorola MotoQ crapped out on me I saw a window of opportunity to upgrade both my phone and my plan. So now, I’m sporting a BlackBerry Curve with an unlimited text plan, putting those $0.20/text charges to bed forever. Dang, I’m so rogue.

The Curve comes with a leather pouch that makes slipping the phone into your pocket fairly easy. It’s removing the phone from the pouch over and over that gets old.

Looking for a better protection setup, I turned to a brand I had used before, Seidio. My MotoQ was once wrapped in their black Innocase Surface case which I loved - until a couple of clips broke that held the two sides together and rendered it useless. Nonetheless, the surface the product name eludes to is spectacular. It provides just the right amount of grip.

As pictured above, I outfitted my Curve 8330 with the Innocase Hybrid case. As the name suggests, Seidio combines a “Crystal” front plate with a black Innocase Surface back-plate.

I chose the hybrid model to retain a visible front while receiving the grip that I mentioned earlier from the back. This case has an excellent snug fit which protects all areas while only increasing the size of phone by a minuscule amount.

I received the case as a Christmas gift, but the $29.95 price tag is well worth it if you’re looking for a durable product that will protect your cellphone investment.
