TheSkorm.net Up for Sale

Posted on by

TheSkorm.net is up for sale for 4 times the amount that Cubestat has estimated, mainly because $1252 is enough to make me change to a different domain name. Cubestat estimated my domain name to $313.17 USD, which I think is an awful lot of money, and I can’t really see anyone buying this domain for more than $20.

I tried it on a few other sites and domains I own, and one of them got $900 USD, which is fairly nice, for such a basic site, with nothing to fancy.

The site is fun to play around with and test out domain names, however it’s estimates are fairly out their IMOH. It’s nice to think that your site is worth that much. Supposably if I were to put ads on here, I would get 0.40$ USD a day, however I know that won’t happen.

Anyway, start saving up to buy this domain if you want it :P .

Marriage in our law system

Posted on by

Most people don’t understand that marriage is a religious ceremony. Religion should not be apart or change the laws that govern our country, although somehow people who are marriage can obtain government benefits in tax.

I don’t believe marriage should change anything to do with the law, tax or health benefits. People should treated separately and their should be benefits or loss for being a couple.

TrialPay

I’ve seen TrialPay pop up on a few apps I’ve been playing with and I thought I’d put the service for a test. I’m always a bit cautious when things are free, so I usually don’t do this.

Basically with TrialPay, you can get software for free, if you sign up and complete some offers. Now they say you can get the software for free, really this is false advertisement because every offer usually involves paying for postage or buy something. Usually more than the software you want to register.

It basically like those “Get a Ring tone free” scams. When you read the fine print, the second ring tone is free, and the first one costs something stupid like $30, per week.

Although the system is basically a scam, it is a very neat package, and if you can see an offer that you think is worth it, I suppose it work for you. I don’t really need 200 Business cards :P .

A phone that suits me? It can't be true.

I’ve been looking for a phone/pda to splash a bit of money on, since I have bought anything geeky in awhile. I’ve made a short list of features I want it in it. Here is my little list:

  • GPS
  • QWERTY
  • Wireless
  • 3g
  • Bluetooth
  • Camera (with video)
  • SD card
  • An OS that is currently being developed on
  • Dual Sim (Not too important, but it would be nice)
  • Large Screen
  • Phone-ish sized ( I don’t wanna be carrying around a laptop )
  • Looks nice
I’ve found the Nokia E90 smart phone that looks really nice and fits all the requirements but the Dual Sim point. Now the Nokia E90 has a GPS and wireless (802.11g), so it’s probably only time before Symbian OS has kismet running on it :>. If I can’t find any war driving apps, I’ll suppose I’ll have to make one.

Fancy BBQs

Posted on by

I was in Bunnings the other day, after I bought my iPod charger, what was interesting is the range of BBQs. I spotted one that kinda freaked me out, unfortunately there was no price tag, but I’m guessing it must cost a bit considering the other basic models were starting at $300. This BBQ had an LCD panel displaying the temperature, the amount of gas, timers and clock. Now for something, thats basically a piece on metal on top of a fire, that’s pretty fancy. How long before we have wireless BBQ with SNMP enabled stats?
