Regcast training : Hyper-V 3.0, VM high availability and disaster recovery

This site is tasteless, pointless, daft, offensive - and worth checking out. IBetYouWill.com is basically an online version of those daft cable TV shows where cocky presenters get men and women in the street to do stupid, ridiculous or distasteful things for cool hard cash.

It could easily have been another tedious, poorly put together site but with a well-developed sense of how to sell itself, but Ibetyouwill.com is actually really well presented and causes you to reflect on just how far we have got in such a short time with Internet technology.

That doesn't mean that you're gonna like the content, which often consists of people doing odd things while dressed only in a Ibetyouwill thong. Eating dog shit for $400 is a little repulsive. A lawyer selling the suit off his back is funny. People having cheese spray emptied in their bra/pants is peculiar. And while we hate a lot of the total nonsense that passes for entertainment, there is something strangely satisfying about this site.

Check it out, have a laugh. If you have a DSL or T1 link, you'll laugh harder. ®
