    Saw a link in the Webmaster forum, and then again at the top of the page. Digiweb are offering one free domain & hosting for a year:

    http://digiweb.ie/studentoffer/

    It's only .com/.net/.org (and .info, I think) and no .ie, but it's still something. Might save people money when they're running for election :)

    The Good:

    - It's Free!
    - 2 Gigs webspace
    - 15 Gigs transfer
    - PHP, MySQL, the usual.. - don't know how many SQL DBs you get. Most likely 1
    - .com /.net /.org domain free for 1 year (i think you can change nameservers though).


    The Bad:

    - Only lasts a year, but should be enough time to establish a good site if you have the time.
    - You can only host 1 domain. blah.
    - No commercial stuff. (don't know about ads?)
    - Probably crappy overloaded servers
    - They can cancel everything with 3 months notice...
    - All your terms are belong to Digiweb
