.Mac bi-monthly bandwidth limit reached
February 15th, 2008Just a heads up, folks trying to download the 2.5.4 beta or 2.5.3 version of Journler today will notice that I’ve reached my .Mac bandwidth. I host on the Journler download at .Mac with a 300GB data transfer partitioned into bi-monthly segments. That allocates 150GB data transfer to my account every two weeks. I reached that number this morning and the limit won’t be reset till sometime tomorrow.
I’m working on a solution to this right now. I’ll be hosting the beta download in a temporary location until I am able to set up a second storage space with a significantly larger data transfer limit. We’re talking terabytes here! Call it a business investment.
On a related note: for the folks wondering why I’ve decided to start charging for Journler who may be upset at the decision, this is an excellent example. As strange as it is, I have business expenses, and I need a way to pay for them when Journler and programming more generally are what I do.

Because of the development mode of the site i can’t find your email contact. I have a temporary (or even permanent) hosting solution for you, free of charge.
You can host the downloads on my mediatemple server, no strings attached. Just saying thanks to you, the way i can. I have a 1TB transfer limit, and hardly using 1 or 2 gigs.
Please contact me if you’re intersted..
