I’m trying out Spottt which describes itself as;
a free way to trade links with other like minded sites.
Spottt’s categories are somewhat generic, ‘business’, ‘fashion’, ‘pets’ etc., the closest thing to web development was ‘tech’ so I chose that category. However 50% of the ads for ‘like minded’ sites involve pictures of women in various forms [...]

My habit of using Network Solutions to check the availability of domain names then jumping over to GoDaddy to buy them will have to stop.

Chow has also assembled his income-earning techniques into a 59-page web book downloadable at johnchow.com. Make Money Online is free, but it still makes money [...]

My favorite show lately is The [...]

Read the “The 4-Hour Workweek” on the plane to and from Paris, the chapters on productivity alone are worth the cover price. The wife and I ate at restaurants for each meal yet still both lost weight, something is seriously wrong with food in the US and A.
Paris was great but the highlight of the [...]
