  1. I dont agree with cragllo completely. As BuffaloHelp is confused, I must tell, its better to point a domain directly rather than adding it as parked. For search engines, it gives wrong rating for your site. Search engines will index your site as yourname.trap17.com and not as yourname.com. So there is no point in having your own domain if its not visible in searches. Second, as an exercise, just try to submit the sitemap of your parked domain to google. It will tell you, sitemap was not found at specified url, even if you have parked your domain with nameserver. So my suggestion, if you bought a domain use it. Or else park it with Sedo.com if you want to earn some money.
  2. Lots of thanks 'guangdian'. i read your comments and installed punbb through ftp. I placed two adsensebanners, one at announcement and other at footer. Its much simpler to place ads. i also felt punbb to be quite faster than invisionfree boards. i am using forums since couple of years. this new software is quite light yet effective. Although its against this forum's rules, to post or advertise external links, else I would had given the url as a demo. As I got a new account, my board is new. Once members start posting to it I shall add third banner between replies. (Adsense limit is 3 ads on a page). Only you have to do is to place the code below announcement with a division tag '<div>' (to avoid page cascading). For footer, you have to make a adsense.php in notepad and paste code in it. upload it to styles/include/user by ftp. thats all. itssami you can PM me. I will tell you in detail how to add ads. regards
  3. I was shocked to see that 80% voted for Gmail. I too.The reason is Google search has been totally commercialized. Add your site in MSN suggest and Google, just see how many days it takes google to show url:http://ww38.yoursite.com/ MSn shows it in 7 days. Their search has been much better from past. So its time for a shift.However, Gmail is in leap and bound better than any other free mail services. and an increase of 4 bytes per second to your mailbox or 42.2 KB per day, equivalent to 4 regular mails from your friends. Excellent Idea. Their Bulkmail is much robust. Filters almost all 'via*ra mails' :lol:Yahoo fails to filter mails with gif images (spammers have changed their strategy).Hope Gmail doesn't become commercialized as AOL.
  4. Its for real., but scientists and especially Americans are making hype about it. The earth is undergoing a cyclic heating-cooling cycle, as in past. The earth still remains in the interglaciation cycle. In around 1770 Tames river of UK froze completely. Few years around there were extreme clold. Scientists beleive if man had not warmed the atmosphere with greenhouse gases, we could had been on verge of another Ice age. But, its for certain that Earth's atmosphere has accumulated much CO2 and green house gases. Which continues to heat the atmosphere, soil and oceans.Every degree rise in soil temperature, produces more favorable condition for soil microbial growth. it further releases fixed soil carbon by respiration, further adding to atmospheric CO2.So the process is interlinked. Arctic Ice belt had melted to maximum level last year. which shows the effect. But it is more of a danger from developed nation like US, which continues to produce maximum CO2, rather thann small industrial country as India. At one place, US wants asian countries to follow Kyoto protocol and in the other, wants to refrain itself, in the wake of higher production costs. As I said, the condition is totally reversible. provided, humanr restrict themselves producing more CO2 NOW.I guess I can be a good science correspondent if someone corrects my grammar
  5. P2P technology is completely legal, but not all p2p programs. Emule0.46 is one of the safest and legal programs. Earlier, grokster or kaaza were nasty programs. it offered you to download music as if it were legal they use to come with spywares. But I found Emule as most userfriendly. Its a GNU project. You can download it here http://emule-project.netAnd about your privacy? You can use Hide IP or a proxy switcher to connect to public proxies in the world Your iP is not shown to public.. Emule supports this feature. Moreover, if you install a good firewall like Zone alarm and a lightweight antivirus like NOD32 (McAfee and Norton sucks the resources) I dont understand why you cant use p2p? And my personal advice, do not share any illegal contents. Unlike in bittorrent Emule doesn't force you to share anything. Just download. If you share more, your download priority will be fast, not sharing anything mens your download starts in the morning if you have setup before bed.
  6. Few things I would like to add on SEO: There are few points one must have to take into account while designing a website for better search visibility. I arranged them in the order of importance: 1. Title of the main page More descriptive it is, better are the chances of your site to get indexed. Say you want to sell camera. Your page title should contain camera as a word. 2.Link popularity If you have 10 sites and a link back to the page yuu want to optimize, if there are clicks from original site back to your new site, it will be indexed faster. Since Windoswa comes preinstalled with a 'official spyware -alexa' alexa.com knows what yuor are browsing. (beware!) 3. Body text: ofcourse its important, what is in the cache of search engine determines, what to show to a person searching. 4. Domain name: If you have registered, .com/.org/.net chances are more to get indexed. Redirects will have adverse effect. I tried to put my own free hosted sites in google sitemap submission, it says you to put a blank html file, specific to your gmail account in the root of the site. Which is not possible in case of a redirected page. So forget a speedy submission. 5. keywords and their proximity: you can put as many as 1000 characters in keywords, separated by comma. there should not be repetitions and no bold/italics or special characters. 5. Metadata: in header of every page, post title for that page, and in metadata, the infoarmation about that page. It will guarantee for the bots to index your pages properly. I feel, if you dont tag your page metadata, sometimes search engines will index only first page. If I am wrong, someone please correct me. 6. folder names and description in robot.txt It is must to put a robot.txt at every directory in your site or the directories coming as your subdomains. A robot.txt reads generally as First line as: user-agent: Mediapartners-Google* or simply * (wildchar to allow all)Second line as: Disallow /cgi-bin (or the directories that you dont wish to get indexed). There has to be links to your directory pages in any of the html pages in root, else, search bot will not go inside these directories, even if you haven't blolcked them in robot.txt. Once you have finished, submit your url to yahoo, msn, Dmoz directory, google as a simple site submission. For commercial purpose, yahoo has speedy submission process, they will charge you something around $200-300. I however wont advice to use programs such as web-CEO to automatically submit your site to 7000 search engines at once, because there are high chance for you to get banned. If anybody has done this automatic submission, please correct me. Good luck to those who want to have a 'Search presence"
  7. How can one add code in Phpbb2? there is no option anywhere for changing header or footer? Does by Modification in css one can have ads in blank space? I dont know html or php much but wanna learn. Please someone help.
  8. Alright, its hard to beleive in new ideas. I know. I did not write this to harm anyone's intentions, but just my view. Nobody can or should try to change my perception of god if i dont beleive in it. However, as Wild20 said How can you say this? there is no level2. This is taken from M$ encarta DVD 2005 for reference on expansion theory of universe: Which means, unless someone proves that universe is open, the theory of level-2 universe holds true. A manipulator cannot be a part of the system himself. So he has to sit outside of it or else he will modify himself. So god must be at level 2. Any comments??? Second, You talked about evolution. What is evolution/ Its a probability of something happening. A heap of molecules arranging themselves in a manner, that it becomes self-sustained or rather a lifeform, which can utilize energy to multiply itself. We do it ourself out of probability. Noone else controlling it from level-2 universe. Even if the god trying to change position of galaxies, it renders little gravitational effect on us, totally harmless as long as we fall in a black hole suddenly created by god. But one thing is for sure. He is not going to come here to help us, if we cry for his help. We have to follow Darwin's theoty of "survival of fittest' & not 'Go is great'
  9. Like you I am also an atheist. Some members may not like this idea, but I dont want to hurt someone's sentiments. My explanation in not beleiving go is like this: Who created the Universe? If its god, where does he live? If someone does, but I dont beleive in second postulate of boundryless universe. (First assumption of universe theory states that universe has a certain boundry, and all galaxies are spreading upto the end, when everything will collapse back once again to singularity, and give rise to big bang. Second assumption is that, universe will keep expanding and everything will be quantised, means all materials atoms etc. will be converted into photons and universe will keep expanding infinitely.) Second, if we assume god lives outside universe shell, and able to control parameters inside, where does he stand, probably in yet another universe of his own. Which again will have a boundry and some other BIG god controlling his existence. This goes upto infinity. Lets just consider about god at universe level 2, (we are at level1). Now think about sub-sub atomic particles, leptons and quarks. Its hard to imagine, there wont be any life form on these moving rotating spherical wave particles, they follow similar thend to the solar system. If we can move atoms to change their state of energy, so we are ultimately changing their fate. Because all we do, think depends on the effect of relative gravitation and state of energy. If they consider us god, can we interact with them? help them if they are in misery? (let it be universe level -1) The answer is no. Likewise the god at universe level 1 cant interact with us. When we cry for his help he cant listen to us. We are here on our own. No rebirths no gods. We all are born with a timer when it approaces zero, we die. So I dont believe in 'God'.
  10. In my view, if you have deep freeze instaled on your machine, you can safely keep a desktop for months. just reboot it before you want to do any e-commerce or may be once a day. I have a celeron 1.2 GHz 384 MB RAM, 160 GB HDD. I made it a server and p2p host running 24x7 for months. no problem. only once power supply unit failed. that is the only risk. for smokers --- please try to clean interior once a month. carbon dust is the most dangerous for motherboards. rest of the components are just fine. use a lightweight AV like NOD32, keep your hdd defragged. & forget about electricity bill if you keep your monitor auto turn-off feature enabled after 5-10 min. your cpu needs 300 watts with 100%cpu useage. average cpu useage for one person is hardly 5% per day. so where comes the question of electricity bill? To check whether your hard disk life is ok (hdd is the only sensitive part in a comp), you can use HDD life pro or Active SMART programs. Good luck.For ACTIVE SMART, HDD Life pro, NOD 32 or Deep Freeze please do a google search..Keep it on and enjoy having your best friend near you always!!
  11. they start displaying ads as soon as you place code. once you cross $ 50 mark, they will send a PIN to your address and put a hold on your account. once you fill tax information and the pin (which you get after a month by surface mail) and have 100 $s they will send you check.Remember not to <- snipped -> on your own sites. Its against their policies. They will terminate y your account and you loose all earnings made by someone else's clicks even, once they detect a single click from your iP..good luck}
  12. Adding more to this list: No. 5. Adbrite: Sell your webpage space for ads. Its as good as Google's adsens, and let you place ads anywhere in your webpage. They wont obstruct you for placing ads from their competitors (especially google). http://http://www.sitescout.com/adbrite/?utm_source=adbritemb/publisher_landing_page.php No. 6. Domain Parking: If you purchased a domain but have least use of it, you cant sell it so quickly, then park it at sedo.com. You have to direct your domain's nameserver to sedo.com. They will fill a page with ads as per keywords that you provide them. When somebody points to your domain by misspelling or by chance and clicks to any ad, you are paid $ 1-2 per click. In addition, sedo facilitates you to sell your domain. http://sedo.com Guys, just keep this list floating with your knowledge..
  13. Guys, I just created my page on google. So much neat and tidy it looks. You have to login with an existing gmail ID, create your page in one of the most simplest WYSIWYG page wizards. No ads on your site, google pages is still in beta. To, start with your link is here http://pages.google.com/ This also gives you 100 MB for your files for free. So far I dont see a detete file link on their site. So what you upload, is permanent ;-) The good point is that, there is no bandwidth quota as it is hosted by mighty Google. ;-) Once you finish adding texts to your page, you can hyperlink your uploaded files to them. No chances of broken or missing links. Because you can see a preview of links in real time. Once you finish your home the address looks like this: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ You can create as many pages as you can and link them to your homepage. Although google says the scheme is still in beta, and they only provide you facility to create single pages instead of a full website, Its still ideal for hosting your resume, hobbies, blogs, etc. Also, by linking through your pages, you are eventually creating a full fledged website. You may add pictures, banners, flash to your pages by linking and resizing images uploaded in your 100 Mb space. Just feel it yourself. Interestingly, you can create a sitemap and add it to google. You may use coffeecup's google site mapper software, if you dont know how? http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Now about the long ugly sitename that you receive, can be replaced by redirection. I used co.nr service, which just ask you to put a small bullet in your first page. The redirection from other services like dyndns, opens an ugly popup. Also co.nr names are smaller than Dyndns or likes. (Example your.co.nr, P.S. three letter name is a paid service). Get your free domain name here: http://http://www.freedomain.pro/ They are so flexible i their approach, that they dont ask you to put banners or ads of theirs, instead a small bullet 60x40pi which reads as 'web hosting reviews'. I added html code from co.nr at the page footer, so its not much visible. What more do you want? Most of the free web hosting services place their ads on your page. Now, you all may like to feel the difference at google.
  14. LOL, Really nice story OpaQue, with all thrills, and the end is sooo funny. I hope I shall forward it by mail to my friends.
  15. Men dont read them but watch them in the magazines. Mostly those magazines talk about fashion, health, exercises etc. I personally talked to many men regarding this in past. They said, they like to watch good models, thats all.
  16. Geocities give 20 MB & Tripod 15 MB limit. I have pages there, which are flooded with their ads. Looks weird if you suggest someone to see your webpage. Hope the new service from google will be better. One thing you forgot to mention is the link through which you can open googlepage account. I hope all will be intereseted to know.
  17. Nice tutorial however. I liked the idea of Add BootDelay=0 and Logo=0 to msdos.sys. Second I didn't know higher resolution slows PC. Will check it out.
  18. The antiglare technology in some of the monitors use Boron as the shield. If you dont have the money to upgrade your CRT monitor to LCD, buy an antiglare spectacle with no power. Even I use CRT monitor, it really hurts me as I stay in front of comp. for 16-17h a day. I use a reading glass with boron coating (can be identified with a green glow when you watch it from front).
  19. MaineFishing45, whatever you do, dont get 'trapped' in web1000.com. This is an advice to all in this forum atleast. They redirect your pages to adult sites (probably their ads) with an excuse, as mentioned officially in their FAQ. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  20. I searched in MSN "free web hosting". I got so many places to visit. web1000.com etc etc. I came to this board and found people discussing really nice things. I simply joined this. Although I am not interested in having a bannerless account here, because it becomes more of a burden to post unnecessary things (as per forum rules to gather points), rather than fun and creativity. The board has good people, and in sufficient in numbers. So why make someone to post by force / greed?
  21. The main difference is in the technology. Two way radio is based on surface radio waves travelling across globe, bouncing back from surface to surface and our ionosphere, before reaching to target 'by chance or probability'. These have actually short frequencies. On the other side, cell phones uses FM or frequency modulated waves (as used in FM radios) wrapping one short wavelength wave in another higher wavelength wave. These waves cant travel to long distances, and hence require towers to amplify / modulate them or to be sent to long distances by using altogether different technologies, such as satellite or fiber optic cables.
  22. My friend brandice, we are not talking about eating chicken after roasting. In case of boiled egg, the temperature never exceeds 100 degrees. The chances of infection is still high if you touch an infected raw egg or unprocessed chicken pieces (especially while cooking). The main concern is that how to ascertain whether the poultry products we are buying are from a safe farm. And rvalkass's concerns are quite genuine. Overuse of existing medicines can result in possible resistance from virus. Therefore, most of the government do not allow these drugs to be taken as a precautionary measure. The medicine is prescribed only in case someone is diagnosed as infected.
  23. What is 'Bird Flu? A Wikipedia defination speaks about what is bird flu? TreatmentThe only medicine developed Oseltamivir, used for avian influenza treatment are manufactured by Cipla, Ranbaxy and Hetero Drugs. These companies are underprepared for a massive outbreak in humans. Global Epidemic After China, Turkey, Egypt, Indonesia now it has reached India. Although no human cases found, it is spreading at an alarming rate across the nation. According to WHO case report: Countries like India is totally underprepared for a possible outbreak. Only in Mumbai, the consumption of: 1,00,000 chicken a day in 7,000 eateries, 3,000 illegal shops, 620 licensed stores; and only 210 municipal inspectors to ensure hygiene. Although, on receiving reports of infection in poultry farm, Indian government has started culling of chickens on massive scale, still we can't trust poultry items from countries which lack the seriousness of the event, especially African nations. Hope we should not import poultry items from any of the third world countries or start our own farm, if we cant resist the temptation of chicken. Notice from KuBi: Edited topic title to reduce page distortion.
  24. India is now second in the world in terms of number of HIV positive people. The news article below describes how fast it is spreading across several poor states in India. Source: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/article...205,curpg-1.cms It says:
