I want to start a fan website. Nothing to buy or sell, just post pics, thougths, etc. Like a fan club if you will.

Does anyone have any ideas where to look for hosting? Are there sites that are free? If not which ones are easy to use and deal with?

Why not just start a blog? It's free.

Sounds like you want to do a "blog". Most blogs are hosted free. There is usually a "create your own blog" tab in the upper right.

I kept a journal (okay...a diary) for 3 of the 4 years I was in the Navy. It's somehow therapeutic to put my thoughts down in writing. I've been keeping a blog for the past four years...the link is below.

That isn't exactly the motivation I had in mind.

Woke up. Read manet's blog. Resolved to spend more time on the internet. Surfed over to my favorite site. Spent a few hours at McSkillet Burrito Blog (http://mcskilletburrito.blogspot.com/). Turned on the blender. Fell asleep. Dreamed of Ionesco.

I hope that while sleeping you don't turn into a rhinoceros...

Or maybe if you're lucky, you will. You skin seems awfully thin and unsubstantial, compared to ours.

yup! hey, we're all just having fun. . .and blogs are fun, too

some of us are just too shy to post ours

there's a concept: the shy blogger

mr.president: it really is an easy way to have website without having a website - way easier to update, more immediate and casual. hope you do it, have a good time!
