Free HomePage/Email/Shell account for Forum Users?

Does anyone want a free homepage/website and email address? 20Mb DiskSpace with PHP and MySQL support.

It would proberly be in the format of: http://users.this_site_does_not_exist/~username/ and username@users.this_site_does_not_exist

If there is a lot of interest, i will get something setup...

EDIT:
I may also give telnet access as well if people want a shell.

I was going to ask if this would be a possibility eventually.

I would love a shell acct., email addy and website action. I'm assuming that the email, webspace and space w/ the shell acct. would all basically be a home directory and the space is shared between the services?

Oh...and just yell if you need/want any help setting it up/administering it.

To answer questions so far:

We're using telnet to make logging less of a hassle (in case anyone feels like attacking a major Bank from my box etc)

There will be no Affiliates/forced advertising etc, i suppose it would be nice if you put a "hosted free by this_site_does_not_exist" link/image, but its your call.

Yep, each user's website will run out of a dir in each users home directory.

Sarumont: Check your PM's

I know that I havent been around a lot lately, and really didnt post much when I was here. But, would it be possible for me to get in on this?

Oh, and it looks like I might be back in on the Linux world. My instructor is hooking me up with Mandrake 9.1
