Here Comes Spykee
Let us introduce you to Spykee. We’ve gave him to the South Yorkshire Repeater Group to see what they make of him.
He’s a little robot with a web cam and VoIP phone and you can control him via the internet from anywhere in the world. He’s great fun!
Currently he is still on test but is expected to make an apperance soon on the SYRG website where for a small contribution to the group – you can have a go with him.
“This is a perfect chance for us to show that we provide internet solutions not just world class hosting”, said a spokesman for Host Yorkshire Internet. ” the robot is in capable hands and South Yorkshire Repeater Group will make very good use of it.”

Welcome to our Ezine
Welcome to our new look web site and to the very first post on our E-Zine.
What is an eZine?? An eZine is a short abbreviation for an online electronic magazine.
Our eZine at Host Yorkshire is for you to read at your leisure. It’s also here to help you pickup a few pointers and tips on your travels through the internet. Over the coming months I’ll be bringing in experts and articles on a variety of internet related subjects for you to enjoy and read through at your own pace.
If you are feeling somewhat adventurous – you can have a go yourself at some of the projects we have lined up.
Host Yorkshire is still a family run business. It has an extended family too. Our clients.
Just after 3 years the Host Yorkshire website was due another big update. We’ve listened to your comments and suggestions about Host Yorkshire in the meantime. I’m confident that we’ve fulfilled the majority of your requests and hope that this website is a reflection of this and icing on the cake. I do hope that you will read the eZine and continue to send us your comments.
All that remains now is to declare this new eZine officially open and to wish you all the best.
Enjoy
Andrew Spaxman : CEO
