  1. yet another one is: X10hosting

    Someone said free server is great (being that it's free).

    Great uptime so far, and they are fast and reliable. People just get upset because others don't want to waste their free time on answering stupid questions - however I'm amazed at how many stupid questions the staff are actually willing to answer. They are just very strict about breaking their rules. A serious offense will give you an instant ban and your account will be deleted, but hey, they have to protect their servers and other users. I can only imagine how great their paid service must be.

    Yet another user comments: The worst host I've ever used. 12MB of RAM allocation per hosting. PHP and Javascript are a bannable offense. If you try to host any forum, instant ban. If you try to FTP from two different computers, instant ban. You are not allowed to host any images that are already on Google Images as they use software to look for duplicates and automatically ban you if any duplication is found. SQL, FTP, HTTP...ALL up about half of the time.

    So I guess it all depends what do you want and expected from a free service. So I just want to point it out here for the information only.

  2. Another one worht mention is:Freehostia

    Freehostia offers 250 MB diskspace and 6 GB bandwidth free. The features include fantastic installer, free POP3 email accounts, MySQL databases and much more. They also have CPU limit per account. They inform you about this and they encourage you to see the CPU stats regularly. Their support staff plays vital role in this company. The average response time is around 2 to 3 minutes. This is great service for a free member.

    Also it claims uptime is 100%. Tyr a free webhost now since mit's instant activation.

  3. Byethost claimd sit to be the fastest free host in the world.

     

    The graph chart below shows a list of free PHP web hosts that a custom PHP benchmarking script has been run on, which calculates the average execution / processing times in milliseconds (ms) the server takes to process complex mathematical formula. The test is repeated 12 times at 5-second intervals. The test results from the webhost speed / performance benchmark script are then sorted from best (fastest; lowest PHP execution times) to the worst (slowest; highest numbers). There are currently about 100 Free PHP Web Hosting sites listed with reviews on Free-webhosts.com, Free-webhosts has tested most of the popular free hosting companies with the largest infrasturcture which are most likely to be the fastest in the world.

    I would love to see where does Xisto stand in the above chart. Since Xisto provide free host alongside the paid service, it must be really good I suppose.


  4. Anybody has good experience with Byethost. Looks their review is mixed, with a lot of fans, also quite a few complaints about account suspension, lost of data, lost of database, unexpected downtime etc. But people with good experience tend not to post, that's why I would like to seek comments about their free service. I know you get what you paid for, but still if free hosting is existing, it's existing with a reason.


  5. Go to http://html.net/ if you want to learn html. Also nowaday there is a lot of Free HTML Editors and WYSIWYG Web Editors.

    The best html editor you can use is: Adobe dreamweaver.Dreamweaver is one of the most popular professional web development software packages available. It offers power and flexibility to create pages that meet your needs. I use it for everything from JSP, XHTML, PHP, and XML development. It is a good choice for professional web designers and developers, but if you're working as a solitary freelancer, you might want to look at one of the Creative Suite suites like Web Premium or Design Premium to get graphics editing capability and other features like Flash editing as well. T

    For free html editor I recommend Komodo Komodo Edit is hands down the best free XML editor available. It includes a lot of great features for HTML and CSS development. Plus, if that isn't enough, you can get extensions for it to add on languages or other helpful features (like special characters). It's not the best HTML editor, but it's great for for the price, especially if you build in XML. I use Komodo Edit every day for my work in XML and I use it a lot for basic HTML editing as well.



  6. Also, please note. MMORPG is very very popular in Asian country like China Japan and Korea. People usually gathering around the socalled internet bar to play these games countlessly, you can not imagine that scene over there. And it brought huige amount of money for the game operator, many of these companies already went public in the US. they even has 3D mmropg game online already. Cool hah! People spend real money to get a bragging right in the games. There are numerous repiorts kids skip meals to save money to play these games.


  7. Runes of Magic has real good review and has a lot of fans. it's free to play and have pretty much a lot of good features:Features1. Free2play: no monthly fees, free to download2.

  8. I could not understand how exactly the credit thing work, other website like 000webhost do pay you associate credit if you referral people to their free service. here we have to post to earn credit or cent, I am working my *bottom* off trying to earn some credit in order to get enough credit to qualify for a free host account. But frankly speaking the forum here is not quite active, definitely not as active as the ones I usually visit for similar topics. I feel like most of time I am talking to myself. Also be warned not to copy text from other site. hard to argue but most of the topic you do can find it somewherelse.


  9. Goto UltraSurf.com to get the appliocation on your sub, and you should be good to go. Ultrasurf is a proxy service, designed to enable users inside countries with heavy Internet censorship to visit any public web sites in the world safely and freely. If you are not located in such a country, you can also use the software to hide your real IP address to protect your privacy. UltraSurf is a standalone application (no installation needed) that automatically configures Internet Explorer to use UltraSurf whenever you run the program and displays a lock icon on the desktop to indicate that anonymous browsing is active.

    Since ultrasurf use the localhost:9666, it is very hard for your network admin to block though not completely impossible.


  10. Seems myspace is going down siuth very quickly, the announced to lay off 50% staff worldwide, and they lost badly to Facebook. Maybe they would have better life should they remain independantly Once being the top social networking site, MySpace has steadily been losing users in the past couple of years and was recently surpassed by Twitter when it comes to traffic. While we'll see how myspace is going from here!


  11. Over the years I see ebay is constanly incresing their seller fees. Now you ahve to pay 10% for ebay/paypal fees for anything you sell, plus if someone is trying to fraud you, it's so easy to do on ebay. The good transactions all are based upon mutual trust between honest people. While evil buyer/seller occasionally get their way, i ahve been burnt many many many times both as seller and as buyer. yes ebay knows there are quite some people rely on ebay for their livlihood, and they took advantage of that. So if you can not live without ebay/payapl, you'll have to endure all the bitter outcomes should they come.


  12. Compatible hardware
    Companies working with Google to develop hardware for the operating system include Acer, Adobe, Asus, Freescale, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, Toshiba,[48] Intel,[49] Samsung,[50][51] and Dell.[52]

    In July 2010, Google CEO Eric Schmidt said a Google-branded Google OS netbook was unlikely, despite Google's having previously negotiated with a couple of hardware manufacturers to produce it, and despite an earlier Google-branded device, the Nexus One Android phone. "Let's see how well those partners do first. My guess is we won't need to. The PC industry is different from the phone industry. The PC industry is used to working with Microsoft, whereas the mobile industry was not used to working with software".[53]

    In December 2010 Google showed off a development Google Chrome OS laptop that replaced the Caps Lock key with a dedicated search key



  13. Design goals and direction
    User interface

    Design goals for Google Chrome OS's user interface include using minimal screen space by combining applications and standard Web pages into a single tab strip, rather than separating the two. Designers are considering a reduced window management scheme that would operate only in full-screen mode. Secondary tasks would be handled with "panels": floating windows that dock to the bottom of the screen for tasks like chat and music players. Split screens are also under consideration for viewing two pieces of content side-by-side. Google Chrome OS will follow the Chrome browser's practice of leveraging HTML5's offline modes, background processing, and notifications. Designers propose using search and pinned tabs as a way to quickly locate and access applications.[39]
    [edit] Architecture

    In preliminary design documents for the Chromium OS open source project, Google describes a three-tier architecture: firmware, browser and window manager, and system-level software and userland services.[40]

    * The firmware contributes to fast boot time by not probing for hardware, such as floppy disk drives, that are no longer common on computers, especially netbooks. The firmware also contributes to security by verifying each step in the boot process and incorporating system recovery.[40]
    * System-level software includes the Linux kernel that has been patched to improve boot performance. Userland software has been trimmed to essentials, with management by Upstart, which can launch services in parallel, re-spawn crashed jobs, and defer services in the interest of faster booting.[40]
    * The window manager handles user interaction with multiple client windows much like other X window managers.[40]

    [edit] Remote application access

    In June 2010, Google software engineer Gary KačmarčĂ­k wrote that Chrome OS will access remote applications through a technology unofficially called "Chromoting", which would resemble Microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection.[41] The name has since been changed to "remoting," and is "probably closer to running an application via Terminal Services or by first connecting to a host machine by using RDP or VNC."[42]
    [edit] Hardware support

    Google Chrome OS is initially intended for secondary devices like netbooks, not as a user's primary PC,[19] and will run on hardware incorporating an x86 or ARM-based processor.[9] While Chrome OS will support hard disk drives, Google has requested that its hardware partners use solid-state drives "for performance and reliability reasons",[17] as well as the lower capacity requirements inherent in an operating system that accesses applications and most user data on remote servers. Google Chrome OS consumes one-sixtieth as much drive space as Windows 7.[43]
    [edit] Integrated media player

    Google will integrate a media player into both Chrome OS and the Chrome browser, enabling users to play back MP3s, view JPEGs, and handle other multimedia files while offline.[41]
    [edit] Printing

    Google plans to create a service called Google Cloud Print, which will help any application on any device to print on any printer. While the cloud provides virtually any connected device with information access, the task of "developing and maintaining print subsystems for every combination of hardware and operating system-- from desktops to netbooks to mobile devices -- simply isn't feasible."[44][45] However, the cloud service would entail installing a piece of software, called a proxy, as part of Chrome OS. The proxy would register the printer with the service, manage the print jobs, provide the printer driver functionality, and give status alerts for each job.[46]
    [edit] Link handling

    One unresolved design problem related to both Chrome OS and the Chrome browser is the desired behavior for how Web applications handle specific link types. For example, if a JPEG is opened in Chrome or on a Chrome OS device, should a specific Web application be automatically opened to view it, and if so, which one? Similarly, if a user clicks on a .doc file, which website should open: Office Live, Gview, or a previewing utility? The project director at that time, Matthew Papakipos, noted that Windows developers have faced the same fundamental problem: "Quicktime is fighting with Windows Media Player, which is fighting with Chrome". As the number of Web applications increases, the same problem arises.[8]
    [edit] Security

    In March 2010, Google software security engineer Will Drewry discussed Chrome OS security. Drewry described Chrome OS as a "hardened" operating system featuring auto-updating and sandbox features that will reduce malware exposure. He said that Chrome OS netbooks will be shipped with Trusted Platform Module, and include both a "trusted bootpath" and a physical switch under the battery compartment that actuates a developer mode. That mode drops some specialized security functions but increases developer flexibility. Drewry also emphasized that the open source nature of the operating system will contribute greatly to its security by allowing constant developer feedback.[25]

    At a December 2010 press conference, Google claimed that Chrome OS would be the most secure consumer operating system due in part to a verified boot capability, in which the initial boot code, stored in read-only memory, checks for system compromises.[15]
    [edit] Linux shell access

    Chrome OS includes a Bash-like shell with minimal functionality called the Chrome Shell or "crosh".[47] In developer mode, a Linux command prompt offering a more complete set of instructions can be opened via VT-2, with a slightly smaller instruction set available via crosh. [47
