BlackLily Mag

I found People magazine on magazine subscriptions here. It gives you an overall outlook of the magazine and tells you how much it costs. This is a very nice website to check and look into different type of magazines that you are searching for and compare and evaluate them before you can subscribe.

AnswerBudda.Com

This is a cool new site for finding answers about things you'd like to know. Concept is pretty simple, this website makes a lists of the most asked questions and informationon the internet. All you have to do is search for your required question and you'll get an answer for that.

It's a pretty nice idea and is worth a look.

Record your voice and send emails automatically

I haven't come across something like this in a while. Maybe it's a very old thing or just haven't received enough attention from people. But there are a few nice websites that let you record your voice and send emails to other people using their services with your recorded voice.

I thought this was a fun toy to play with and it actually could save a lot of time when you need to send long emails. All you have to do is record your message on their website and then click send. The other person would be able to listen to the message very easily.

Check this website for instance, http://vocaroo.com/

Trying to fix my phpBB3 forums

I had a mod installed on it for Arcade type games. You know those gaming mods that so many forums have these days for small flash based games.

I didn't really like the mod so wanted to get rid of it. All I did was to install a new phpBB3 version and kept the sql entries in the database. But that didn't seem to work.

Now every time somebody tries to register the forums they can't. Every time I want to make some changes in the Admin panel I can't. Because there are files missing due to that mod that I didn't uninstall properly.

Trying to work on a fix. Lets see. PhpBB3 forums are very hard to maintain once something goes wrong. Especially for people who don't have a programming background. :P

That PhpBB3 Mascot "Bertie" is kinda cute

He doesn't look that cute in blue. But looks pretty cute in red. This small picture of 4 of them working together to get to bottle of wine is pretty cute.


Look how life like they look as if it's a real scene and they're really going to get the bottle from the top.

Just installed Avast and New Windows

I installed new windows on My Computer and Laptop with Avast. Now both computers are running so smooth. I feel so relieved now. Eset Sucks. I don't know what people are paying them for when the can have quality Anti Virus Software like Avast for free.

Anyway, it's my bad really. I never really paid any attention towards the world of anti virus and anti spyware etc. I simply stuck with the current software that I had.

Times change.
