Free Web Hosts

So, now that Geocities is gone, anyone know what the current "cool" free webhosts are?  Are tripod and angelfire taking up the slack?  webs.com?  Bravepages?  If you were going to make a new site with no budget and very little coding experience, where would you put it?

Also, if you wanted an experience akin to the old MSN groups, where would you look these days?

I'm stalking some lesser-known sites/forums in the otherkin community at the moment, and actually having pretty good luck with it.  Rollyo is a great search service for combing through various free site providers.  Only catch is you have to know which free site providers to tell it to look through.

Of course, if y'all wanted to just straight up point me to otherkin sites I haven't found yet, that'd be cool too. ;-)

Oh, one last thing -- anyone know of a good working directory project?  DMOZ and Yahoo Directory both seem fairly dead.  I know most aren't likely to have much on otherkin, but sometimes they're useful for other stuff... like figuring out the current popular free webhosts without having to post to LJ about it. ;-)
