I was looking for better replacement of my second Vonage telephone line to cut costs even more.

Recently I've got a letter from Google referring to the policy violations for their AdSense program stating some of the content on this website is against their policy.

Since moved to Drupal 5, I did not have a chance to update the site much and it's been a while...

After months of development and research we finally opened a brand new online store: GlenMarket.com. At GlenMarket you will be able to find electronics products, tools, accessories and more at very competitive prices and great customer service.

Currently, GlenMarket is looking for suppliers that will be able to provide drop-shipping services to its customers.

I used to host some of my sites on my home server, however due to power outages and not reliable Internet service provider, moved them all to 1and1.

I've been 1and1 customer for about a year now and however they generally provide an OK service, I believe I can find something better than that.

When search engines crawl your site they remember your site structure and if you need to move some pages URLs around you need to setup proper "old URL -> to new URL" forwardings, other

I was looking for the icons for one of my sites that I could use (for free of course) and came by this pack from lullabot.com. The attached file contain more than 100 icons.

This icons pack is licensed under the General Public License, which means you allowed to use these icons for any purpose... "The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for software and other kinds of works"...

If you plan to make custom changes or new variants, be sure to read the Lullabot guide to new icon creation

Recently Denis wanted to upgrade his PC video card since his new game would not work with it, and we decided to get a new computer instead and hand over Denis's PC to Diana.
Along with the new PC we've got a Microsoft adCenter $100 promotion and were dying to give it a try.
Here comes this sad story....

After searching for all firstov.com page views indexed by Google, I've noticed that some sections of my web site display navigation menu text in the Google results instead of displaying a nice intro text that should have come from the description meta tags. This was caused by absence of description in the page header and by improper layout design of the web site. Apparently I had navigation section in the <div id="navigation"> placed before the main content <div id="content">. And the text from navigation block went straight to the Google index creating non descriptive results in their search pages.

I just got my Christmas present delivered from buy.com.

I want to feed my puppy the best dog food that is available. After some research I've found that food that contains a lot of corn, wheat, soy, beet pulp by products, chemical preservatives or dyes in it is NOT a good one.

I've installed a couple of Drupal modules on the site including Feedback, users guestbooks, invite and my buddylist. It seems with the modules help, Drupal based site has all functionality one could think of. However I could not find a good voting solution (a la digg.com) for Drupal. In fact in version 4.6 it had comments voting already built-in, but later it was removed from the core.

I found out this morning there was someone posting a lot of empty comments all over my site. Since I have Captcha protected comments for visitors the only thing I could have done to protect the site is to setup a block by IP using .htaccess file.

When doing our kitchen remodeling project we decided to get a wine cooler to store and keep our wine bottles in one place (regular soda cans also go in there as well as beer bottles

Many of us enjoy taking photos while out and about or on vacation.
"Vacations are times we always want to remember. We are able to see sights we may never see again. We do things we may never go back to do, and meet people for the first and often last time. One of the most important things we do to remember our vacations are to take photos..."
We'd like to share a few photos from the places we visited while traveling.

Finally we've migrated Firstov.com website to Drupal CMS. Thanks all who helped with Joomla to Drupal transition and with graphics design elements!
