Website hosting directory

If you look for a webhosting, look no further! Recently I discovered website hosting rating site, which has a comprehensive overview of webhosting sites. And it is more than just a rating site. You can find there reviews, rating, comparisons among different services. And actually this site really can come in handy. How many times my friends are asking me, where they can get good hosting. I remember that year ago I spend hours of googling to get a good price performance Windows hosting service. Now with this site, you really have everything on the same place.

Some may find useful directory of Hosting Awards 2008, but I found a diamond in CMS web hosts listing. Since Joomla is getting more and more popular even among less technical webmasters, here you can found best Joomla host in 2009. Of course other hostings listings including phpBB, Wordpress, PHPWiki and many others are available.

Finally you shouldn't miss articles section, which explains almost everything about hosting: from installation guides to articles such as The importance of Domain names, which gives a valuable information to everyone who is a content provider.

First post this year - it's a shame

Maybe one would think, that I disappear or something. Well, I am here and surprisingly well, but the time is still major constrain. After finding out in 2008 that HYIP is no go, I rediscover two possible way of relatively but stable income source on the Internet. It would be sport betting, namely horse betting and forex trading. In the time when everyone is talking about economic recession, those two ways are most promising.

As far considers forex trading I would say, that you stay out of anything what is called managed, signal or automatic. At least for me it doesn't work, and it didn't... and prolly it never won't. I plan to get back into manual trading, but it takes time to catch the skills back. I am so rusty, you can't believe that.

For betting - things are slightly different. Some may recall I was writing about this in Free Forex and betting signal over Twitter . This signal over Twitter actually is still available, but I made complete reconstruction of my reverse engineering application, so now, when I have time, around 1pm GMT+1 post a horse bet prediction - when available. As always I am full of plans, but not all are feasible. My idea is to apply the same mechanism on UK soccer league. What will come out of this, I will keep you posted.

But generally, since lack of time, I am much more active on Twitter, so follow me on http://twitter.com/Th0rest

My blog is under comments spam attack

Recently I noticed, that leaving my blog comments open without my authorization is not so good idea. I want it to have open to anyone to comments, but it seems that my blog has been posted on some list how to build up PR on Google. Stupid comments not connected with post topic and links to bizarre homepages and blogs.

Therefore I am forced to turn direct commenting off. Unfortunately that will means I will have to authorize every meaningful comment and that those comments won't be available immediately. I am sorry for this inconvenience, but I have to remain this blog's integrity.

Insuranc - get answers on insurance

One thing I love about the Internet is, that you can get fast answer on virtually every topic. So if you want to get more information on insurance, you should visit and bookmark Insuranc. Not only that they provide rapid and knowledgeable advice, at Insurance they deal with real life situations. Even tough the website is rather forum oriented is just what one who need to get certain information on insurance want to get. Simple and fast page with an easy interface to enter questions and get aswers - online.

As I mentioned, the site is new and there is nothing much online yet, but whose, who had answers got the answers. Site is structured by categories, one such example is Flood insurance .Two other categories on site are Homeowner's Insurance and Questions About Insuranc. One would think, that there is a typo in the name, but it is not. As mentioned on website, they removed letter "e" to make getting insurance easier.

Digital photos viewing

Nowadays most of us have a digital camera and in comparison to an old cameras we have several advantages. I personally found the two most most outstanding advantages in capacity and quality.

Quality is nice thing, it means that digital pictures are in better quality than those made with an old camera. And second - capacity means that we can take enormous number of digital pictures. Well, that can be also third advantage which just came up to my mind: you can watch or print digital pictures instantly.

So we have nice (big) and quality pictures ready to be viewed. I rarely use photo printer option, since it is kind of time consuming and you've noticed through my blog posts, that time really counts. So when I am showing my pictures to others, I usually use cable and connect digital camera to the LCD TV. For quick browsing through pictures I prefer to use laptop; it is just faster and more handy, but both options I use frequently.

Viewing digital pictures with those two approaches I really can get best out of the quality part of advantage: a really high definition pictures.

Twittad - another Twitter monetizing service

In extreme situations like this is (speaking about global economic crisis) the one should start looking for an alternative ways how to get money. It is much appreciated if it is not directly connected with direct investing, but rather being paid for doing other things.
There is no doubt that microblogging was buzz this year. Is there any heavy Internet user, who didn't hear about Twitter? I guess not. And there are more possibilities how to get paid from microblogging activities. As f we talk about Twitter, I did published one opportunity in Get paid for Twitting post - but so far I made small income from that service.

From money earning perspective I see even better opportunity in Twittad. At Twittad they've added different concept comparing to what we saw so far. You do sell your background. Twittad is a place, when demand and supply meet. Twitters on one side and advertisers on other. And you, as a Twitters you can set your condition, for how much money and time you offer your background to advertiser. Interesting concept. Not only for publishers, but also for advertisers as you can put your background ad for less than $1 per month.

Get paid for Twitting

After bad experience with classical blog advertising with Ad sense when I Find out why Ad Sense is scam, I am now testing other ways to get paid for posting. Magpie is an ad network for Twitter. Their customers sign up and create campaigns which consist of magpie-tweets (i.e. ads). Twitterers allow Magpie to post magpie-tweets among their tweets and get paid for it.

As long Twitter crew allow such rather unplanned advertising - obviously they were not able to put their world wide short message system on market - everything is fine, and you will be able to get some money out of your twitting. More on Magpie you can find on my feed.

Another service which gives you an opportunity to earn money with Twitter is Twittad. With slightly different concept from Magpie it offer Twitters and advertisers an option to negotiate the price for advertising. And this time you are not paid for messages posted through Twitter as it is the case on Magpie, but for the background of your profile. Nice, and best of all - you can combine both services Magpie and Twittad.

As soon as I get some real money from those two new and very promising services, I'll let you know.
