Hello Everyone,

I've been paying for a linode 360 for more months than I care to remember and done very little with it. :oops: And the more I think about it, the more I realize I'm not keen to delve into the server end as I am the web end anyway. So I'm wondering if someone here would like to connect via PayPal and do the setup and periodic admin functions for me.

Originally, I bought the Linode so I could have my own sandbox on the web and while that desire hasn't waned, it seems like I've got no time for learning the intricacies of server admin.

Here's the deal: I'm in education where I'm primarily interested in having my own Moodle http://moodle.org/ tied in with Mahara http://mahara.org/ and an Elgg http://elgg.org/ too.
Would it be possible to host all three on one Linode 360 running debian?

I just found Squarespace http://www.squarespace.com/ hosting this weekend and thought it would make an ideal stable frontend blog where I could link to my Linode. Would this be a good idea :?:

It should be possible, just don't expect it to be really fast and with many users it would probably start to crawl. Look into a 540/720 plan at least, more so if you are expecting alot visitors daily.

Unless you really need a dynamic blog, look at nanoc. It generates static html files and it can be used as blog. This is more for a place that isn't going to have comments and saying that it's for education, I assume that you don't really plan on it.
