The result of war in Iraq

October 3, 2005

I came across this site, containing pictures of the result of war in Iraq. They are pretty graphic, so…visit the site at your own risk.

Some people just don’t understand that peace cannot be gained by violence. So, is it much peaceful there in Iraq after the war? To me, it seems like there are more and more suicide bombings.

Why can’t they take Mahatma Gandhi as an example?

100 best products of 2005

October 2, 2005

PCWorld has the list. Go take a look.

Hmm..how many things on the list have you got? It’s strange though..to include Google as a product (and it’s not on the top spot, don’t worry). I see it more like a service instead of product.

Go update your shopping list now. :)

How To Increase your upload/download/ratio in torrent trackers

I’m sure most of you are bittorrent users. Or maybe, I’m over generalising. Anyway, for bit torrent users, sometimes, you might come across BT sites that require you to sign up on their website, and maintain a good upload/download ratio in order to download stuff from them. However, here’s a trick to bypass that….by making your upload/download ratio very high so that you can easily download anything you want.

Check out the guide here: Link

Try at your own risk. :)

Reducing spam by icon generator?

October 1, 2005

These are the two websites for generating email icons. So instead of publishing superman@hotmail.com or superman@gmail.com, your email address will be displayed on an image (so it’s not clickable and spam robots won’t be able to get your email address).

Here you go:
http://services.nexodyne.com/email/index.php (for Hotmail, Yahoo, GMail, and many more)
http://gizmo967.mgs3.org/Gmail/ (for GMail only)

Well, some people might say that these websites will sell your email to unknown 3rd party….to be honest, I’m not sure (even if they have a privacy policy, but who knows right?). If that’s the case, I guess the safest way to protect your email is to just type it as superman[AT]godzilla[DOT]com if you’re going to publish it on the internet. :P

How to get a free IPod Nano [Part 1]

September 19, 2005

Actually, got to know this from LcF’s Ideal Gadget. I’m a bit skeptical about this, thinking that this might be another scam. But after I did some research on the net, I’ve decided to give it a go. I’ll write the step by step guide here, until the day the IPod Nano arrives to my home *fingers crossed*. So today will be the part 1 of the story.


Summary:

- Sign up under my referral ID here: http://ipodnanos.freepay.com/?r=22387146
- Complete one of the offers (My suggestion: [UK offers] ScreenSelect.co.uk, a DVD rental company, take about a week to receive the credit, cancel before the 21 days free trial ends to avoid charges. [US offers] Almost the same for E-Fax, sign up for the 31 days free trial).
- Get 5 friends to do the same thing. ( I will help you by posting your referral link here, just drop a comment if you’ve signed up under me and I’ll post your link once you’ve completed 1 offer).
- Wait for your free IPod Nano!


Risk involved:

I might have to pay £9.99 if the offer is completed in more than 21 days.. But I’m willing to take this risk.


Things to know before you sign-up:

· You must be 18 years of age or older.
· You must provide a valid email and living address.
· Most of the offers require a valid credit card/bank account.
· You must live in the UK, US and Canada only.
· Only ONE account per household.
· Remember to sign up for the offer with the same email address that you use to register with my link to avoid any problems.
· Make sure your browser cookies are working properly.


Full Story:

Q: So how do I get my free IPod Nano?
A: Be careful as there many sites out there which are merely scammers. I’m trying this one by FreePay.com (formerly known as Gratis Networks). It has good reviews from forums and even from Wired News saying that they really do give out free stuffs like IPods, PSPs, and etc. Basically, the steps are:

1. Sign up on their site.
2. Complete an offer from their sponsors (might need to pay a small amount, or free if you’re smart)
3. Refer 5 friends and make them complete 1 offer each as well.
4. After that, the IPod will be all set to be despatched to your house!

So, how does it really work? (quoted from Wired News)

Here’s how it works: FreeiPods.com promises an iPod or a $250 gift certificate to anyone who signs up for various online promotions and persuades five other people to participate.

Subscribers are given a choice of 10 different offers, including a 45-day trial of AOL and a two-week trial of Ancestry.com’s genealogy service. Typically, the offers are free and easily canceled.

Once the trials are over — for both the main subscriber and the referrals — the free iPod is dispatched.

So their main target is for people to sign up under the sponsors. But that doesn’t mean you have to pay a whole lot of money, if you know which offer is worth going for. And that’s what I’m aiming too.

I signed up for ScreenSelect, a DVD rental company. It’s giving out 5 DVD rentals for their free trials. Monthly payment is £9.99, but you don’t have to pay for it if you cancel before the end of trial period (21 days). You can cancel the account anytime you want. You have to submit your card details to them for verification purposes though (Solo, Switch, Visa, Mastercard accepted) but you’ll not be charged. I signed up with them using my debit card.

Now all I have to do is to wait for 5 people to sign up under me. I need some help here, but I will help you in return if you do sign up under me. Once you’ve signed up and given the green light approval from Freepay.com, I’ll post your referral link here to help you get your IPod Nano too. :)

Things I Find

August 14, 2005

I recently came across this special blog; the writer writes about the things he found. It’s pretty cool, but most of the things he found were grocery lists.

I like this particular entry from one of his posts:

I found this at K-Mart in Hendersonville, Tennessee about 2 years ago. It is my favorite shopping list, ever! Here’s the list:
