   You could re-create your page on a *free* site at:   
      
   http://sites.google.com/   
      
      
   If you want to use things like PHP and MySQL, you can get web   
   space *fairly* cheaply hosted on a Linux box at:   
      
   http://www.omnis.com/   
      
      
   They have fairly liberal policies on bandwidth per month, web site   
   disk usage, and such.
