HN discussionI host my own blog ( http://junglecoder.com ) on a VPS at the moment. But I went rather overboard with it, as I built my own CMS-lite in go. I was in college, wanted to learn how the web worked at a decently low level (lower than wordpress or rails). What I've discovered is that having a VPS opens up a world of opportunities for network related things. I've used that site to host Ludum Dare entries, ClickOnce .NET a…
