I tried desperately to conceal my yawn from the handsetas he went on about how well he was doing in his latest venture in web site design. I loved mybrotherto bits, but he always had something new, exciting and different going on every time I made my weekly phone call. He'd been doing this new on-line job (after doing just about every other possible on-line job!) forall of five daysand already it was going to make him a millionaire by next year....

Well once again, my computer is acting up! Seems to be the topic of the day, or the week! For some reason or another, every time something gets blocked on my computer, I get this little message, do you want this as your home page. I keep pushing no, but it always keeps asking me, do you want this as your home page?

Published Tuesday, 21st Jul 14:15 BST

I have the greatest admiration for people who choose to become a web developer when they get older. Creating websites and advertising on-line their creations takes alot of hard work and alot of patience. I myself have tried to create a website that would allow me free advertising on-line, I figured it would spare me the ten dollars a month I pay to advertise on other peoples websites but I just couldn't seem to grasp the concept. Icould barely understand what certain words would mean, i ended up having to surf the web for definitions. Don't get me wrong I love getting to surf the web but i love it more when I'm doing it for something fun. The other day while cyber surfing I actually found an instructor who can teach surfing at the beach for fifty dollars a class. The instructor was clearly smart enough to know advertising on-line would get him good business for his discount surfing lessons. web developers just always seem to have so much to do. At one point i even considered doing that because I did not know what it really was and I had thought it may be for people who like to surf the web but man surfing the web has nothing to do with it. And really that is all i ever use the net for;finding things I want, watching music videos, downloading music, chatting with friends, researching work, or having my kid research homework are all I use my internet for. Kind of pathetic I know but at least I'm not trying to meet someone so I can go on a date with a complete stranger. i would never do that. But I do monitor my daughters use of the web, I know how dangerous cyberspace can be for a kid. I allow her only an hour on the internet a day for homework but no more. Whenever she wants to download a song orwatch a video I insist on being there withher. I also am sure to make sure her father keeps to these rules and doesn't try to surpass me.

Published Monday, 20th Jul 19:59 BST

Selecting a good domain is very important for any website designers as a very good and catchy domain will definitely help in getting more visitors to a website.If a website has more visitors, it can get more advertisements as advertisements mainly dependent on visitors.If there are many visitors to a website, getting advertisements will be more easy and it can be compared to daily news papers as news papers with more circulation will get more advertisers and advertising in a leading newspaper will always be costly and likewise advertising on a leading website will be more costlier and hence website designers will definitely look into getting more and more visitors to a site by making it more attractive and also by including more content updating it most regularly.Domain which is too good is also difficult to get as it will already fully booked by someone and these domains are called a hot domain,Try getting domains like money, business and you will not be able to get as it is already booked and if it is available also it will be very costly as those people who have booked may try to get more money by selling those domains also.Coming to computer browsers, there are too many browsers getting introduced recently.This was not the case a few years back when there were just 2 browsers which were famous like internet explorer and Netscape.But now, Mozilla FireFox browser has become very famous and also widely used.Google also have bought a browser of its own very recently.It all depends on the user for which one to select.I have gone for Mozilla FireFox browser as it is faster compared to internet explorer and also occupies lesser system space compared to internet explorer.Other than website designers, networking people are also more in demand as networking will be used to connect the computers in either LAN (local are network) or WAN (wide area network).If a company has many branches spread over a city, all computers in all those branches of this company can be connected either by LAN or WAN.So, networking is of more useful in such cases.

Published Monday, 20th Jul 12:13 BST

I was staring at this web page design one day and I wished I had the programmer in front of me so I could wring his neck. I couldn't believe he would allow the website to look like this. It was just awful, it looked like the programmer took a sharp knife and just drew the letters directly on the page with it. Even the owner of the internet cafe agreed with me. At first, I thought it was just some kind of glitch but even if I reloaded the page it still looked like that. I had to review the content of the website and make a three-page report about it. I couldn't believe my boss would give me an assignment like this. I talked to the owner of the internet cafe and asked if I could use the server computer in his shop since I thought it was just an error made by the computer. I pulled up a browser using the server computer and it still looked the same. I immediately called my boss and reported my problem. He said he didn't know that the website looked like how I described it and thought I was exaggerating. He tried using his computer and encountered the same problem. He was surprised because he said he personally knew the person who owns the website and he would not have allowed it to look like it. He advised me to wait for his call while he contacted the web site's owner to discuss the problem. After an hour, my boss called and said the website owner would like to thank me for reporting the problem. He said the programmer who built his website did not notice that the page's graphics and lettering looked like that when he was making the website since he concentrated on the headers and the web site's content and did not notice that the fonts looked horrible. He immediately went to work and put up a sign on the website that it was under construction by the web server and should be up again in 24 hours. I sighed, I guess I would have to wait until tomorrow to finish the report. I thanked the owner of the internet cafe for attending to my requests and went home.

So he has formulated a plan that he says will earn him his first million within a year. He is very sure of himself and has already begun planning his first vacation which he plans on taking in exactly one year with his online income.

Published Monday, 20th Jul 11:15 BST

Many of the upcoming business firms are increasingly using junk emails to spread their business around the world.These junk e-mails are nothing but mails which come from an unknown source without any proper address in it as we cannot even reply to those emails.Some individuals also use these junk email to promote their business or to get traffic to their site or to become a member of some site.This junk email is a real trouble for everybody and most of them don't even look at those advertisements, but there are also some people who look to click the links that come in those junk email to know some things written there.Some of these mails even contain porn links and clicking on that will open a porn site full of a virus and your internet explorer may just get stuck because of these virus problems and we may have to shut down the system directly and then open the internet explorer again.Looking at browser security, it is better to use Mozilla FireFox which is also being used widely these day's instead of internet explorer as it also has an advantage of loading faster than internet explorer and also occupies less system space than internet explorer.I am using Mozilla FireFox browser in my system and i am also quite satisfied with it's performance.Being a web developer, i do look into various aspects like selecting the best browser, system speed, memory, processor etc.Every web developer will install a good virus scanner in his system in order to prevent or block a new virus entering system files and corrupting the whole system.These days a web developer should know each and every aspect of the computer also and in a way, he also should know lots of hardware things in order to keep everything proper.A web developer is also heavy in demand these days as each day many websites come out as still there is huge demand for web sites and development and many of them are even developing sites working as a freelancer.There are also many web sites offering projects to be done on freelance basis and it's nice to earn some money grabbing these projects.

I had always been interested in computers and ICT. I always wanted to know how the web designs an "internet and cyberspace" environment for the people to be surrounded by. Every time you'd surf the web, you'd be attacked by spam which would clog up your internet and wifi. It made me happy to help people remove this spam so that they could surf the web efficiently again, as MB/s was my life.

I love the internet, i enjoy everything about it, minus of course the spam and junk email, the good thing is that most email applications are fitted with an anti spam program which instantly seperates the spam into a folder which you can delete straight away or you can wait and just sort your junk email and delete is all together. My favorite thing to do online is buying on-line, i spent hours making the perfect choice for pretty much any area, it saves me time when buying for a friend or family member i can just search buy it and it is delivered to them as simple as that a lot of time is saved and i can really search for something good that is not easy to find. Buying on-line really is a great way to go i would recommend it to all.

I am addicted to the internet. I'm always on messenger and I'm always buying on-line, i buy things i don't even need and that's the point that i got to to realise that i was an addict. So i decided to become a programmer for a system called reroute. I thought all my information that I'd gathered and stuff i knew about computers would come in handy and i was also pretty fast which is always a plus when you need to get a job done. So i took a couple of training courses in being a programmer after I'd accepted the job, it was going to be a long and tedious process of changing stats, swapping and working out number equations and just plain typing and retyping over and over again. I broke it up with a bit of messenger, chatting to my mates and wasting time. Of course i still dabbled in buying on-line, gotta love eBay. I bought some stuff that would help me work out how the hell i was going to work this programmer. I didn't really know much about it but i was given a step by step guide on how to work it since no-one else wanted to do it.

I love on-line gaming, its soo good. My friends take the mick out of me for playing stupid games for as they say things i wouldn't want to do in real life but will do in games. I mean I've got 24/7 internet access so why not use it and play some games. Exactly, no reason why i shouldn't do that stuff. I've come across some bad websites like this one called re route, which for some reason sent me a virus about every ten minutes, so after i'd deleted and got rid of one i got another virus. So bad but then i just gave up took it into the shop and they fixed it. Not having internet access for about a week was pretty lame so i got onto my iphone and downloaded some on-line gaming just so that i wouldn't have to do without.

Published Saturday, 11th Jul 22:20 BST

I'm a programmer for a well known internet provider. So you know I'm an authoritative source when I say that the government is using your wifi to control your brains. They use the data alpha omega epsilon channel of your wifi to interrupt your beta waves during sleep. And the fluctuations derived from the evil inherent in their signal implants suggestions while you sleep. Now I know what you're thinking, "Suggestions alone can't control me. I have free will. I can choose to override these." But how can you choose to override something you don't know exists? Answer me that and I'll give you a gold fiddle. Well I won't really. It's just an idiomatic expression. Anyway, moving swiftly onwards. I want to tell you today how to protect yourself from your wifi. You don't need to change internet provider and you don't even need to be a programmer like me. All you need to do is to use a sheet of the finest tin foil money can buy to refract all the evil from your wifi into a glass of the finest orange juice, where the innate golden goodness of said juice will neutralise the aforementioned evil. Be careful not to drink the orange juice though, as concentrate can give you an upset stomach anyway, but also because pure evil sits dissolved in it, just waiting to possess you and devour your soul. Believe me when I tell you this is not a good idea. Having your soul consumed by a transcendental entity is not pleasant. First it boils the love off, then the caring and compassion. Soon you're left a hollow husk of your former self. So where can you buy this fine tinfoil I speak of? Well at your local supermarket of course. And the orange juice and be purchased there as well. There is also a computer program you can write if you're a programmer. It will re route the evil back to your internet provider, and keep you and your household safe from mind control. Sadly your internet provider may perish. But they deserved it anyway. 39.99 for broadband? Bah!

Published Saturday, 11th Jul 22:18 BST

I founded this company called re route ltd. It's a limited liability company that specialises in re routing spam. No spam goes near your POP3 clients. It goes nowhere near your desktop. It's rerouted from the server to a big truck that drives through a series of tubes to the disposal plant. It's then fed to wild dogs. Packs of wild dogs. Just so they don't get sick of the spam, we rotate the dogs. They take turns deleting your spam in shifts. Sometimes they get a virus from the spam, so the man comes along with his medicine and science and flamethrowers and does away with my poor dogs. As you can imagine this is raising my overhead considerably. So I ask all you nice citizens of the internet, sitting there browsing on your desktop, if you would like to engage in some on-line investing today. For only 5000 dollars you can invest in my company and get a share. One share. May sound like you're getting little bang for your buck but just remember "one" share is a nominal amount. A share is only worth as much as the company its from. And we're worth a lot. We have people on-line investing from all over the internet. People are just sick of their desktop computers, that they've spent a grand or more on, succumbing to the myriad of viruses that are constantly circling around, and the plethora of ones some basement dwelling loner creates every day. All because of spam. We take the spam out of your life, so you don't have to. So invest today. on-line investing is the way. The new way you and people like you, never have to worry about "this virus" or that "virus again".

I love this social network so much that i started to spend all my time on it.

Why is it so hard to find the right Internet service provider? I recently had to find a new provider when mine announced that they would no longer be providing internet access in my area. I used to get my internet access through TDS, and I liked it. It was only dial up, but it was reliable, I never had a problem with my Internet connection, and I never had any problems going on-line. I was happy with it.

I was meant to be on holiday but I have to admit I'm pretty much a workaholic. I got to the nearest cafe with wifi and logged onto the re route system with my computer. I needed to check my emails, make sure I had no clients needing my help while I was away (even thought they assured me they wouldn't need to contact me), it's my job to worry so that's exactly what I do all the time. I logged onto the search engine just to look up various things about what I was missing back in New York eg. weather, TV programmes and general news.

Published Saturday, 11th Jul 21:06 BST

I went to the park one day and saw a dog. The dog was very fluffy and cute. I was surprised to see such a beautiful dog here. Usually it's only ugly mutts brought to this park. I should have known it was a trick then. A trick by the evil robot overlords to lure me into their trap, ensnare me in their evil. Because as soon as I had knelt down to pet the dog it transformed into a massive towering mechanical beast, with saws for arms, chain guns for teeth and water cannons for eyes. I screamed but my screech was drowned out, literally, by the robot's piercing stare. I ran away, my skin scalded by the evil robots briny gaze. I ran back home but I found it had exploded. The robots had sent an electronic bomb through my broadband connection and detonated my computer. So I ran to my programmer friend to see if he could help me defeat the robots. But I found him dead. Someone had performed a re route on his exhaust pipe and the exhaust from his car was leaking into his kitchen. He had suffocated whilst scrambling eggs. I couldn't let good food go to waste so I devoured the eggs before sprinting away. I got to a hotel and found robots were already there. I quickly ran down to the basement as their laser cannons blasted giant orbs of death into the walls. I found a computer down there it had a broadband connection. I wouldn't fancy myself as a programmer but when your life is on the line you're able to do amazing things. So I invented a program that sucked the electricity out of the robots, into the internet and their bad electricity was re routed to the bottom of the sea. After I had saved the world I was given the honorary title of programmer and given a free computer and a free broadband connection for a year. Now I am happy. So there is a good and bad side to every situation. You should make the best out of your circumstances like I did.
