ShoutOutLounge might be moving

Dear Shouters,

2 years has come to pass. I remembered we were at Foodloft 2 years ago meeting Shouters up for the very first time. Good times, I remembered plonking down a large sum of cash to purchase a 2 year hosting plan with Exabytes a day before that gathering. Elise and me figured “Hey, never try, never know”.

Now look at how far we have come. http://shoutoutlounge.com/Panel/ShoutOut/Album.aspx. Contained within that link are every single ShoutOut Family Photo we have ever taken. If you are into collecting things as a hobby, this Collection of Memories here will make you proud. I am sure I am.

 

So as mentioned previously, 2 years has passed. Which means dreaded renewal is also just around the corner.

Hence, the hunt begins. As you are well aware, despite all its greatness, ShoutOutLounge.com has one major problem. It cannot stand on its own 2 feet, financial-wise. It is a non-profit community based chatting service that is built by the community for the community and we need someplace to call a home. We have sent 2 proposals to both Exabytes and Shinjiru regarding sponsored hosting and we are now waiting for a favourable answer. Their answers would determine where ShoutOutLounge.com will be moving to next.

Also depending on their answers, we might be required to display advertisements of their website prominently throughout ShoutOutLounge.com modules.

Deadline? 18th of June. That’s the date the hosting plan is expiring. 17 days remaining. All the best to us all!!
