Confetti website

Okay. So for a Confetti website, we need to pay for two things.
1. The domain name / the website address itself (so either weareconfetti.com or con-fetti.com, etc.)
2. The server to host our website

The domain name is cheap - $10 a year.
The server is more expensive. It is $3.65 a month for 3 years, which doesn't sound like a lot, but that adds up to $131.40. We were talking about having this website up for as many years as possible, so we need to talk about how much each person is willing to put in, and how many years that will allow for us to keep the website up. To have the website up for three years would be $161.40 and if that's divided by 16 (how many people are in Confetti?) people, it would be ~$10 per person.

I'm getting both of these - server and domain name, from godaddy.com (suggested by my computer-internet savvy brother).

The web hosting provides email addresses if people are interested in having their own confetti email accounts... and it looks like we can put a blog up on the website, which I guess would eradicate this one, and that might be cool so we only have one web address to tell people.
