Run your own servers, control your own infrastructure. There are ways to do 
it. Next on my "ToTest" list is this, for instance:

The question is not price; the question is whether you are aware that you're

Get more people off of Google/Yahoo/etc. There's also The Federation:

You can even set up more pods/servers.
