Now, I'm sure most of you out there are using Apache or IIS. Maybe if you're really deep into hosting your own server you might be into something like Lighttpd. But if you haven't heard of NGINX then you need to read up on it. I swear this light yet powerful webserver app is probably the best I've ever seen.

If you're interested in checking it out:

Keep in mind though, it runs best on unix/linux based OS.

Hm, interesting. I've actually become more interested in Yaws as far as web servers go, since it's written in Erlang, and Erlang is uniquely suited to handling a high number of concurrent connections.

Personally, I usually use Lighttpd, but the web server I rent uses Apache.
