I know a number of folks here have personal web pages detailing projects
and interests. I'm interested in doing the same, covering my issues and
experiences in moving my shop down under, my hobby projects, and my
photography.

I would want 500MB+ storage for images, a blogging application, and FTP
w/password access. Those features alone will probably ensure I get a lot
more bells and whistles, but those are the basics.
Looking for low cost. GoDaddy seems pretty cheap, but a couple friends
warn while setting up is fast and easy, customizing a web page isn't
exactly intuitive. 1&1 has a lot of features, but is kinda pricey for
just a personal page.

A Small Orange. A bit 'geekier' than some hosts, but includes cPanel for us
mortals. $5 per month will get you 750 MB of storage and 15 GB monthly
bandwidth. Virtually every thing else is truly unlimited. Few exceptions are
things most folks are unlikely to encounter. 1,000 emails per hour for example.
You will never hit that but a mailing list with 100 members and 10 posts per
one hour will hit...

Have been with them for years and have never had a problem not of my own
doing:-O
