How much would you pay for free hosting?

Humorous, there's an eBay auction running for a "free" invite to the free blog hosting over at Wordpress.com. That site provides free hosting for the excellent blog software you can find at Wordpress.org. The Wordpress blogging software is free, but users must pay for someone else to host their blog. Unless they get a free invite from Wordpress.com. In this case it's someone who has received an invite selling theirs to the highest bidder! So far it's at $35. I thought it interesting that most of the bidders had never made an eBay purchase before.

Funny stuff. Wikipedia has a nice entry about Wordpress.
