After more than a year I use SingCat to host my lovely KutuLoncat.com domain, I decide to move it to another Webhosting Provider. Fyuuhhhh……. experience is the best teacher, I totally agree about that.

There is some points that make me consider to choose one hosting provider than the others i.e :

  • They have to provide me as cheap as possible for at least 200MB disk-space. I can tolerate maximum 300k rupiahs a year. More than that ? Sorry, I have to find another one. It will be nice if they can free me the domain renewable fee, and of course without any setup fee.
  • Their server should have average uptime at least 99,9%. It is critical since we need our website to be accessible anytime.
  • Daily backup ! Yappp, this is important. They have to remotely backing-up all of their server’s content every single day.
  • They should have a good and responsive 24/7 Customer Care team via web or phone. You can imagine if you have a complaint but your provider never response within a day maybe ? Just say good bye to any provider like that.
  • They have to provide me with some good features and management tools, eg: current release of cPanel, parked-domain, FTP access, unlimited sub-domain, MX Record modification, and also completed Apache module (like mod_rewrite etc).
  • I don’t care about how many email account they can provide me since I always use Google Apps to host my email with my own domain. More space and more reliable :-)

Yappp….. my previous hosting provider didn’t show their good performance in front of my eyes, so I have to find another one.

Gileeee……….. amazing banged !
Barusan gue baca blog nya Nugroho, dia nyeritain kalo dia dapet link dari temennya. Pas baca artikel nya sih gue agak-agak gak mudeng juga, apaan tuh 3D Sounds Clip. Ternyata itu tohhhh…….. keren abizzzz Nug !

Jadi ternyata ada teknologi pengolahan suara digital semacam itu yaaa. Dengan hanya menggunakan Ear-Phone atau Head-Phone, kita dibawa ke dalam suasana 3D. Loe tau kan yang namanya Teater IMAX di Taman Mini, atau bioskop 3D yang ada di Gelanggang Samudera Ancol ? Kalo loe nonton di situ kan loe seolah-olah ikut di dalam setting film itu. Kalo ada pohon tumbang, atau percikan aer, atau lemparan batu sekalipun, loe dengan refleks nya akan menghindar. Yaaa karena memang itulah teknologi 3D di film.

Tapi pernah gak ngebayangin kalo teknologi semacam itu bisa dinikmati lewat suara aja ? Awalnya gue emang gak percaya, tapi begitu nge-dengerin sendiri, gue baru percaya. Mantabbbhhhhh.

Jadi setting nya tuh di sebuah Barber Shop. Tukang cukur nya jalan ke kanan ke kiri, kita bisa tau perpindahan dia. Udah gitu, pas dia make’in kantong plastik ke kepala kita, jelas banged kerasa seolah-olah emang plastik itu beneran nempel di kepala kita. Apalagi pas tukang cukur nya udah mulai nyukur, kerasa banged tuh alat cukur nya bergerak dan pindah dari kanan ke kiri, ke atas kepala. Seru dehhh pokoknya.

Supaya hasilnya makin mantab, ngedengerinnya harus pake Ear-Phone atau Head-Phone. Dan jangan sampe kebalik make nya, biasa nya di Ear-Phone atau Head-Phone itu ada tulisan mana yang harus dipake di kuping kanan dan mana yang buat kuping kiri. Kalo kebalik, gak seru jadinya.

Sekarang coba dengerin dehhhh

Gimana ? Keren kan….. ? Gue kaget pas tiba-tiba di bagian akhir, tukang cukur nya nge-bisikan sesuatu. Btw, ada yang tau gak apa sih yang dibisikin ama tukang cukur nya ?
