| Besides a big, "Gee, thanks!" from Chris and crew, are there any incentives for referrals? |

Personally, I enjoy the fact that Linode has no referrals system in place. As soon as something gets a referral system, I can no longer trust word-of-mouth advertising for whatever's being advertised. As a result, I avoid any places that have a referral system, if I know about it.
In Linode's case, a referral system isn't necessary, I believe. The service is so good that word-of-mouth advertising probably brings in more sales than a referral system would, and in addition, for people like me the addition of a referral system would lower my opinion of the companies using them - and assuming enough people like me, that could cause another noticeable drop in sales for Linode.
So I really hope the answer to this one is no specific rewards - except what we all get, as Deckert pointed out. Linode do enough for us already. |

There certainly wouldn't be much benefit to linode having a referral system.
I recommend them whenever someone talks about dedicated/virtual hosting :)

One could use these boards to say, "razza referred me and boy I'm glad he did!"
To me, that would be enough. |
