Hi All,
I got this email last week and Josh, the real HPR admin, is starting a
new hosting business and as such he will be bringing HPR hosting along
with him.
I recorded an interview with him yesterday to get more details and it
turns out he has been footing the bill for HPR Hosting for a while now.
So apologies for the interview turning into an advertisement but we owe
this guy. Their main selling point is honest hosting and their site is
http://AnHonestHost.com. We have a discount code of "HPR15" on shared
hosting. Spread the word and the code, the fact you get a daily episode
is testament to their work.
We will of course be including a thank you to our An Honest Host, but
I'd like to put it at the front rather than the end. Think the Linux
Outlaws intro. This would be added automatically during conversion so
Josh can can keep the news fresh and you don't need to add it. Something
like:
<quote>
HPR is proudly sponsored by AnHonestHost.com. Use the discount code
HPR15 for 15% off all shared hosting at AnHonestHost.com
</quote>
As we will be adding this anyway it will also allow us to add
text-to-speech blurb between the sponsor mention and the intro, so
people can decide if they wish to listen to it or not. This was
discussed a long time ago and it descended into a debate on how much
people hate text to speech. Something like:
<quote>
It is Monday July the 14th and this is HPR episode 1551 entitled
"Bitcoin Mining". It is hosted by Scyner and is 8 minutes long. The
Summary: "This is a short summary of what steps I took to get a set and
forget bitcoin mining station going"
</quote>
Da da. Da. Da, da da da daaaa etc.
Therefore the outro also needs to be rerecorded. I want to make sure the
text we include is correct from the start. Currently it is (without the
advertisement)

Hey Ken,
Just a heads up, I have talked with David and I am getting ready to move
the binrev family of sites off of LP and to my company that I am
starting (AnHonestHost.com). LP is having some serious issues and I
fear that they wont be around for much longer (at least in it's current
form). I know HPR has a pretty big following and I would appreciate any
positive words that can be said about my company I am starting.
Right now all of Binrev's costs are coming out of my pocket because the
company isn't making enough yet to be self sustaining. This is not a
plea for money from you or anyone with HPR, BinRev or any of the other
sites, but a request that people promote us. The biggest huddle I am
facing is getting our name out there. I know the folks that are active
on the mailing list and provide shows are an opinionated bunch, and
honestly I would love to hear from them. I would love to know what they
think of our ideas, our plans and our pricing.
