That's a pretty big "if" in 2011. If you're not stuck on a cheap 2008-style shared host or on some University-owned machine or somewhere else you don't control the environment and aren't allowed to run servers: agreed, CGI is the default position for the old world. However, I assumed everyone on earth new about that since Matt's Script Archive was invented. Perhaps that was a false assumption. However, you can find cloud hosting where you get root on your own virtual machine in the $100-250/year range nowadays (free for a year from Amazon), so I'd recommend moving that direction if you haven't already. Old style shared hosting is going to start disappearing from the interwebs in the next few years. If you want to be really hip, you can try out cloud deployment to Stackato or another "platform as a service" system: * http://rjbs.manxome.org/rubric/entry/1909 * http://onionstand.blogspot.com/2011/04/catalyst-in-cloud.html I've not tried one of these myself, but I'm starting to hear good things. -- Andrew Sterling Hanenkamp [email protected] 785.370.4454
