Haha. Quite funny. But it isnt quite like that: it is like wishing
that a kit-car manufacturers, or some enthusiasts
placed their experiences of where to get the right oil in a public
place to encourage others to have a go and not buy a normal one from
the shop (ie SQLserver)! Hehe.

I believe a few steps are necessary and Im not sure of the order or
exactly how to go about them:

A) Create the DB schema on a (shared host) MySQL db... Does anybody
have the SQL already made?

B) Set up the asp project to have a reference to the correct provider
ie do something in web.config relating to <providers> and <connection
string>...

C) Change the ASP.NET Web Site Administration Tool to 'know' that
we're now using a remote provider...

D) Any other mystical steps involving importing namespaces etc...

Any takers?
