Create a mailingform for your website using only HTML
2007-09-07 12:41:00 Sometimes readers of your website want to contact you. If you don't have server side scripting knowledge (PHP (http://www.php.net/), ASP (http://www.asp.net/), JSP (http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/) etc.) or your webhost doesn't have server side scripting support (if you have a free host), you can't use a webform and you'll probably go for the next solution:Posting your mailaddress on the site <a href="mailto:user[at]provider.com">web master</a>. This is not recommended because spambots (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spambot) are designed to follow those URL's (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL). Additionally, this type or URL opens an external mailing program which can be very annoying for your readers. Here is the solution: Create a mailingform using only HTML....

Throw out your TV and watch your favorite programs and movies online
2007-09-02 16:41:00 There are a lot of blockbusting TV-series now on air, like Prison Break (http://www.fox.com/prisonbreak/), Heroes (http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/), Lost (http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index), Numb3rs (http://www.cbs.com/primetime/numb3rs/), House (http://www.fox.com/house/), CSI (http://www.cbs.com/primetime/csi/), The Simpsons (http://www.thesimpsons.com/) and South Park (http://www.southparkstudios.com/). More information about tv-series can be found on TV.com (http://www.tv.com/). It can be very annoying if you missed your favorite TV-program. Especially when it's a program where you must see all the episodes, otherwise you don't understand what the story is about. My personal favorite TV-program has to be Family Guy (http://www.familyguy.com/) (Seriously, how can you not like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4l2UUueH 5Q)). Another program that I really like is 24 (http://www.fox.com/24/). 24... More About: Video , Movies , Watch , Programs , Online
Poker: Pair of Aces, Pair of Aces, Pair of Kings
2007-08-28 16:32:00 For those who like to play a game of Poke r (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poker), will know that the chances of getting a pair of Aces is relatively small in the Texas Hold 'em (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_hold_ %27em) style. This also counts for the online Pokerrooms such as PKR. (http://pkr.com/) This video has captured one of the rarest moments of Poker: One pair of Aces is one players hand, the other pair of Aces in another players hand an a pair of King's in the third players hand.

The best free games: First Person Shooters (FPS)
2007-08-25 15:53:00 A First Person Shooter (FPS) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_perso n_shooter) game can be a little bit addicting, but it's a nice timekiller. Many will know FPS's from Unreal Tournament (http://www.unrealtournament3.com/), Quake (http://www.quake4game.com/), Counter Strike (http://www.counter-strike.com/), Half Life 2 (http://half-life2.com/) etc. I created a list of the best free FPS-games that you can find on the net. Some of these games are out-dated, others are still in development, but all are fun to play. If there's any game missing from the list, please feel free to post them in the comments. Enjoy fragging and make some nice headshots. More About: Games , Free , First Person , Free Games
Microsoft Tafiti: A Silverlight based search engine
2007-08-24 12:25:00 A couple of weeks ago, Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/) launched Silverlight (http://silverlight.net/). It had to be the opponent of Adobe Flash (http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/). I have to admit, I was really curious what this Silverlight could do, if you can really think you can just "bump off" Flash from their number 1 position (http://www.adobe.com/products/player_cen sus/images/stats.gif) on the net. I tried Tafiti (http://www.tafiti.com/) (Also from Microsoft) to test this new Silverlight. It's a Silverlight driven search engine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search _engi ne). As expected, it really looks beautiful. But is it really that useful? I don't think so. More About: Reviews , Search Engine

How to create a favicon for your website
2007-08-16 15:51:00 Many sites on the net now add a Favicon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon) to their website. It's a small image next to the browsers address bar that indicates your website. It's especially useful when your site gets bookmarked, because the favicon will show in the bookmarklist of your guest. If you ever wondered how to add such an icon to your website, read about it here. More About: Website , Webdesign , Create

Coolest player for CD and MP3
2007-08-14 12:08:00 In these days, almost everyone has an iPod (http://www.apple.com/itunes/), a Creative Zen Vision: M (http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/zen visionm/) or any other type of MP3 Player (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mp3_player) . It almost let's your forget the early days when people were walking around with a Portable CD Player (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_cd _player). I accented the word almost, because designer Yong-Seong Kim didn't forget his CD's and designed this nice DMP (Dual Music Player). Me, as an music addict and a person who loves eye candy and well designed high tech stuff, loves to see things like this. Don't dare to say that you wouldn't one of these; More About: Other , Layer
Tips to shrink the Windows directory to create space
2007-08-13 13:59:00 If you don't have enough space on your PC anymore and you don't want to spend money (yet) on a new harddrive, try cleaning up your Windows directory. Windows has a lot of junk that you would probably never use, so why not delete it. Warning: Be careful what you do. The folders where you'll be cleaning up are indeed part of Windows. These tips will only show which files and folders you can delete without touching the core files of Windows. Deleting any files is at your own risk. This has been tested on Windows XP Pro Final and SP1 (Not home,... More About: Space , Tips , Directory , Create
