There are times when we all need to come together and do whatever we can to help people that are under distress. Just recently we saw how an entire country got affected, in the most horrible way, by an earthquake. Thankfully people all over the world have raised millions of dollars that, of course, can’t make up for all the human losses but it can still improve the quality of life for the people in Haiti. With a death toll at about 200,000 and with yet another 1.5 million people homeless they really need all the help they can get. It makes me happy to see that some web host’s have decided to help out as well. Hostgator has donated $100,000, GoDaddy $500,000 and SingleHop has contributed with $10,000. I hope to see more web hosting providers making contributions to help out the one’s affected in Haiti.
