There are also free PAAS solutions like http://cloudfoundry.com/ https://openshift.redhat.com/app/ http://jelastic.com/ I should have mentioned that with these services you don't necessarily have Tomcat hosting your application. Rather you just deploy your application to an anonymous servlet container which is managed for you. Dan

I'd recommend scrounging up an old computer, configuring it as a server, and do your own hosting. Mine is a P-III 1GHz with 256MB RAM, and it runs Debian Linux and Tomcat just fine for my personal website and photo hosting webapp. It's good experience and a point on your resume during your job hunt as well.
