Keeping Up With the Times

Find a match online is the way to go these days if you are looking for a partner in life. There are many dating and matchmaking sites available and it’s good that there are options out there with this in mind. A good online dating review site can be found at primedatingsites.com, they have taken the time to check out many of the dating sites and give you an insight to what many of them have to offer.

We have all heard of eHarmony.com, but there are plenty of other dating sites that are available out there that haven’t done all the marketing that eHarmony has done on TV. Yahoo Personals is well known, well because it’s Yahoo, but to see other services one only has to go to this review site to find detailed information on American Singles, Date.com, Match.com, Friend Finder and numerous others as well.

With so many online dating sites available it would be wise to check and see what you possibly could be getting into, I know I would if I ever went that route. Times are a changing and you need to keep up with the times, safely and using your head and common sense.

Pass It Along, It’s All Good!

I honestly thought I knew pretty much all there is about the different web hosting companies that are out there for us to choose from. But I recently stumbled onto a site, webhostinggeeks.com, that has a great amount of information concerning the many dedicated server web hosting” sites and I found that they have put together a list of 7 different  “Green Web Hosting Providers” that are eco-friendly and doing what they can to save our mother earth, now how cool is that?

These 7 listed providers use renewable and alternative energy, as well as recycling waste, the planting of trees, and they also purchase RECs in order to power their data centers, which I think are all great ways to make a difference in our soon to be maxed out world.

 Ireally have to respect these companies and I would encourage anyone to check this site out to find more information on them. The company that comes in as Number One in the list of 7 is SuperGreen, they have it listed as the most Eco-Friendly Host, with the provider coming in as Number Seven being GoodAvocado, with the boasting of being a wind powered hosting.

Pass it along, it’s all good!

Today’s GPS

It’s cool how GPS tracking is being used more and more this days and has become very easily accessible through websites such as Live View GPS has, which is where I have found a tremendous amount of information about this up and coming fascinating technology. Whether is be for business or for your own personal use, it has now become more affordable to protect and monitor anything that you deem necessary to. In fact their live vehicle tracking, positions and is updated every ten seconds, that can be viewed by any computer hooked up with the Internet anywhere. That certainly could and would come in handy for so many needs that I can think of. It is an interesting read and worth the time to check out, if you will.

Had to take back my mini 7″ Cloud

What a dissapointment my little 7″ Cloudbook by Everex has turned out to be. I ordered this little laptop on-line at Wal-mart, along with all the necessary accessories that were needed to go along with it. Had it shipped to the local store, in an effort to save $9 on the shipping cost, which took an agonizing two weeks to arrive.

I had to return it, details later, I’m still too irked to even think about the whole ordeal. But I can say that I am going to save up a few more hundred dollars and buy a real life sized laptop. With Labor Day right around the corner I should have enough saved to take advantage of some holiday specials on a decent laptop around the $500 range.

The coolest Dancing Around the World Video

I ran across a blog that I really enjoyed reading and actually took the time to make a comment one, which is a rarity for me, I generally don’t stop to take the time to register and get passwords and all that in order to leave a comment on most blogs that I read, but this time I just had to.

The site is http://www.bladam.com/ and he has a video that you just have to see if you haven’t already about “Where The Hell Is Matt”. I’m embarrassed to say that I tried and failed several times to place the link to video here on my site, and finally gave up and have just provided the link to the web-site of somebody much more sophisticated with all of this technology that I am just now beginning and struggling, at times, to learn.

So if you would like to see an awesome video that will most assuredly put a smile on your face, go ahead and check it out. In the mean time I am still going to attempt to link the video directly onto here, who knows what will happen.

Buying a new small 7″ laptop

I’ve been in the market for a new laptop and I have found one that I think will do the trick that I have ordered online from Wal-Mart today. It is an Everex 7″ CloudBook, a very portable laptop that I will be able to tuck in my back pack or hand bag and take practically every and anywhere that I go. I’ll be able to use it almost anywhere for personal and business usage, and even take it to class or the library for making notes. It only weighs a little over 2 pounds and I can’t wait to get an email telling me that it has arrived at the store and then I can go pick it up and get the initialization process over with and see how this baby drives!

I saved the shipping and handling charges that would have been $9, by having it sent to the store, instead of being delivered to my home address, I like that policy. I’ll let you know how this little laptop handles when I get it all figured out. I’m a bit nervous, I’m not the best when it comes to all these electronic gadgets and I’m sure I’ll be needing to call either one of my sisters or my brother for assistance, but I’ll give it a try and see what happens.

Hello world!

Ahoy mates. I’m a middle aged, recently divorced, woman that spends most of her time on her computer and attending Pirate Conventions and Renaissance Festivals, that is when I’m not busy playing the bar keep while tending bar at the very busy and popular local town pub and usually dealing with a very thirsty and sometimes rowdy crowd.

Why don’t you pull up a stool, have a sit and sip on your favorite spirit and take a look at my world!
