Whenever I want to find someone, a long time friend, a former classmate or a relative, I would scour the social networking sites. Sometimes I am lucky to find the person I’m looking for, other times I’m not.

Up to this day, there is this one person whom I haven’t found yet. She was a good friend during my elementary years that I have lost contact when she transferred to another school. I remember her as a kind girl and we sort of made a pact that we’ll remain friends no matter what. I wonder if she still remembers all that.

Anyway, my hopes were renewed after finding the search engine called Lookupwho.com which I can use to locate my friend for free. I only need to input her name and the state where she’s living and the search engine will look it up for me. Unfortunately no match was found. =( My guess is that she might have been married and is now using a different family name and she’s not living in the US. Hopefully Lookupwho.com can come up with people search for other countries as well so I’ll have better chances of finding my friend. They’re currently supporting searches within the US and Canada only.

But for those who are sure of the names of the persons and state they’re located, go ahead and try it, it’s all for free anyway.

Have you been bothered with a prank call? If you’re residing in the US, with the online Phone Book you’ll be able to look up for the number and get information on it. And perform a background check too. That will give you an idea who’s making behind the calls. Well, I don’t know what you’ll do next; maybe give the caller some lecture?

Anyway, the phone book lists phone numbers including cell, business, residential and even unpublished and unlisted phone numbers. From Alabama to Wyoming, you can make a search by phone numbers or cell numbers or by area codes.

Since the prohibition on buying and selling domain names in Australian has been lifted since last June 1, 2008, there’s a surge in domain name market. Some of the early registrants of popular and premium .com.au domain names are selling these domains at high prices. Good for them! They will surely be making lots of money from Sales of com.au domain names! An example would be the business.com.au which is being auction with a high starting price of $1,000,000. Who wants to get that one? It makes me wish I have bought a popular domain name before. I could have earned big $ from it! Heh!

Anyway, you can read more of the interesting domain name frenzy in Australia in the press release below.

Internet gold rush is on.

A major shift in policy from auDA, Australia’s domain name regulator has lead to an explosion in .au domain name trading.

Effective from 1st June 2008, the change means that Australians can now buy and sell domain names for profit resulting in a boom in virtual real estate speculation.

Domain names are the backbone of the internet and often aptly described as virtual real estate. Indeed, thousands of domainers around the world make their living from these online properties by buying, selling and even renting to people and businesses that have a connection to the domain name

Now, with this new legislation, the industry has arrived in Australia with a bang. The prospect of turning a $30 registration fee into a 6 figure sale is probably consigned to history but one thing is sure, with 1.2 million .au domain names already registered, supply of premium domains becomes tighter and tighter leading to a surge in domain name valuations.

Did he promise you the stars, the moon and marriage too? Well, too much love can sometimes blind a person but please before you accept his marriage proposal, see the Public Marriage Records and check if he’s already got a wife number 1. Or you might be left crying with a broken heart after finding out that you’re in love with a married man.

The online public marriage records give any US citizen an access to see their data archives. They only have to fill up important information such as first name, last name,the state, etc. and they’ll see the results anytime, anywhere as long as they are wired.

I checked my mailbox today and got a pleasant surprise:

You have been sent 225 Entrecard credits!.

If you already have an Entrecard.com account, simply login in and click “Apply
Coupon” on your dashboard

It didn’t say who sent it.  There wasn’t any message left in my EC message box too. Mysterious! Anyway,  whoever you are, THANK YOU!

So many contests are going on in the blogosphere these days! Lots of bloggers are giving out EC credits, some are giving out cash, goodies and web hosting too! I have a blogger friend who’s planning to hold a contest wherein she will give out either EC credits or free web hosting. I was excited to join her contest though I chose the EC credits so I can use it to advertise in other websites but I also wanted to win that free web hosting coz I recently bought a domain for an upcoming project. But it seems she’s busy lately; I haven’t seen her around the net for sometime now. Anyway, my project is already on and yes, I’ve got the web hosting services I needed after the long selection process.

Some friends have been asking me about my web hosting company coz they want to compare the services and packages with what their host is offering. They’re planning to create new websites and they want to know which hosting company offers the best in terms of services and prices. Though my provider isn’t the best, I can say that it fulfills most of the criteria I’m looking for a web host which unfortunately don’t seem to be good for my friends. Instead I told them to look for other hosting companies such as Networks Solutions which might provide them with their needs.

Whenever I do my rounds of EC dropping, I can’t help but notice how the blogosphere is filled with SAHMs and WAHMs. The internet has made possible for everybody including moms to earn money even when they’re at home taking care of kids; I’m one of those blessed few who have found a way to make money through the internet. But I have only attempted few of those money making schemes with much luck. I know there are still numerous means waiting for me to explore which would give me passive income yet the lack of time (or maybe interest ) has hindered me from getting into it.

My nephew is fond of playing computer games, at one time to the detriment of his studies. I heard that during the summer vacation, he sold his online game account coz he wanted to be serious with his studies especially that he’s now a graduating student in ECE . In fact my other sis even oriented him about Paypal account, as the payment was through this.

I have run across one website which buys World of Warcraft (computer games) accounts, so this interested me to find out if this is the same as what my nephew sold. They have a selling tool which makes it easy for the owner of the wow account to sell. And even a live phone support seven days of the week, time schedule is given in their website. 100% security guarantee is offered for those who would sell their accounts:
