Bluehost Will Remove All Joomla 1.5 Users
This week several of our members received an email from Bluehost.
Bluehost are telling all of their customer on Joomla 1.5 that they'll be suspended if they don't upgrade.
All in all, it was a messy and confusing email. They seem to confuse Joomla 1.5 and 2.5 and they also seemed to say that they'd forcibly migrate users.
First we'll show the email, then we'll post our recommended solutions.

We're Hiring a Video Editor
We're looking to hire a video editor.
As our company grows, we have an increasing number of videos that need to be edited, ready for our members to watch.
If you're a talented editor and live in North, Central or South America, we'd love to hear from you.
You do not need highly advanced video editing skills for this role. We're not looking for splashy effects and Hollywood-style visuals. We don't have our teachers act in scenes with acrobatic kung-fu fights or cars blowing up.
