Free webhosting for facebook apps.

-----------------------------------

Hello, 

Just wanted to let my fellow web programmers know that facebook, dell, and joyent are giving away free webhosting, with few strings attached.

They give you root access to a server with 10gb storage. (its technically a virtual server, however you have complete control)
You get your own IP address, its a pretty sweet deal.

Your limited to 1 year for free, then its 45/mo.

All you need to register is a facebook API key.

http://www.joyent.com/developers/facebook/

You are required to have an active application (people must be using it during a rolling 60day period), but your allowed to use the server for any other projects you may wish to use it for as well.
