Any of you people know where I might find a Free webhosting service that would give me a url with a .org or .net or something.

I don't think any free hosts give you a domain name... you have to pay at least $10, up to $30 for one.

blogger.com can give you a blogspot(with thier banner) for free. Often your own ISP gives its clients some free hosting too. (Telus gives us 50 mb to post what we want, or backup stuff.)

My friend recommended me to use this site if you are looking for a free host http://www.freewebspace.net

If you just want a nice short address people can type in, the nice people of Tokelau will give you a free .tk forwarding address. But you have to get the actual webspace somewhere else.

It's < a href="http://yoursite.com">http://yoursite.com</a >.

Make sure there is no spaces between the < and a and a and >.

Thanks, I didn't realize you needed the quotes, they're optional in standard HTML.

Well at least in the sense that "it works with most web browsers" I couldn't swear that it's officially correct. With quotes is prefered I think.
