online radio stations

Hello everyone! The very popular site JohnChow.com will not only help us bloggers about money making and marketing online! Have you heard of their great contest? They're giving away $4000 cash prizes sponsored by Onlineradiostations.com!

I just stumbled upon that said site and viola! It is an online radio streaming site, worldwide! I was shocked because almost all the radio stations all over the world are there and you are free to listen. They're tracking a lot of genres that will perfectly match one's interest, especially for those who use music to express their selves and deep emotions. The site is easy to navigate, radio stations are listed in a very orderly manner.

As I was browsing the list of radio stations, I found out that there are 30 stations listed from the Philippines. so cool right? I can't find WWR 101.9, but then I listened to World Music 1741 which is the same radio station as Energy Fm 91.5 here at PH! Ofcourse I will always love listening to our very own Pinoy Music, and I love the humor of Energy FM even when they're on a commercial. It never got me bored!

Thanks JohnChow for letting us know about the onlineradiostations.com! Ciao!

BlackJack tips and rules from rose

I'm not really into cards as I know even though there's no money involved, it's still gambling. I stumbled in one blog and found some tips about BlackJack. Found it interesting.. It says:


BlackJack Rules And Tips

The main aim of this popular game is beating the dealer and getting less than 21 points and not more than that. There is a unique style in which the score is calculated, but the pattern of scoring is easy and simple. This rule is common in real life and online casinos.

blackjack

Scoring Rules In BlackJack - 1 or 11 is the value that an Ace can have and it depends a lot on the game situation. Hand with an Ace can be hard as well as soft. In soft hand, the players can safely draw another card and there are no problems of being busted. Every card from 2 to 9 bears a respective face value. 10 is the value of 10 and all court cards; Jack, Queen and King. The rules of online Blackjack are not difficult to understand. Ace is 1 or 11, all court cards are 10 and the rest are their face value. In order to calculate the score, the total of all the cards available in the hands of a player is taken.

Terms Of BlackJack - The terminology of Blackjack is special. Hand in Blackjack is just a one player hand. There are multihand and multiplayer variations available as well which means, just like the classic blackjack rules, one player has a group of cards. These variations are played in online casino as well. Bust is a situation under which a card is drawn by a hand and 21 points are received. This can be a losing situation. In Natural hand or Blackjack hand, first two cards of a player score 21 points. This situation can be made possible only with a ten valued and ace card. Blackjack hand or natural hand is the remnant of the original rule of Blackjack. A push or tie is a game resolution where natural hand as well as equal score either win or bust. In case of a tie, the bet is returned to the player.

Play Blackjack online - Two cards are dealt by the dealer to himself and every other hand. The game begins once the dealer has dealt the cards. Every hand makes decisions in turns. A player gets the first turn in classic blackjack.

Winning In BlackJack There are no complicated blackjack betting logics and due to this the payoff table is very simple. You will be paid 1 to 1 in case your hand is the winner. In case of insurance being invoked (a situation where your bet is insured and the dealer has natural hand) you will be 2 to 1. When a player has a natural hand he or she will be paid 3 to 1. This does not apply in cases when the dealer has a natural hand too. In such cases it will be a tie and the bet will be returned.

The Fundamental Steps to start a blog

This is a post from the site of Miss Rose and found it interesting also. This is all about starting a blog at its best. So bloggers, read this and im sure you'll also get interested.


Once technical aspects are cleared with the blogging provider, you can start your blog. At this point you come to the picture and start to customize your templates and writing that you post. Majority of the people like blogging as it offers them a platform that could be utilized to exhibit their thoughts. A few people also think of it in a business prospective.

In order to become an efficient blogger you will have to lay down a schedule for yourself. Initially begin with writing down a list of at least 20 various matters to write on. You will very quickly realize that it is not that easy to provide good effective writing for your readers’ everyday. Thus you will have to find a way to write on your own style and expand it. Do not try to inculcate a style that is not naturally in you. This would bore the readers very soon and you would find it difficult to write too. Simply aim at the matter and the flow would come naturally. This doesn’t mean that you have to strain yourself. You simply have to take one step at a time.

Take a break in between and also make use of spell check. After finishing one post it is good to take a break for five to ten minutes. It makes your mind free for a while and thus increases the productivity. Always keep n my how personal you want your blog to get. You cloud reveal you name if you wish. Normally people do not use their actual name. But by using your own name, you will easily gain people’s trust. It takes sometime for people to recognize your existence. You could also install a statistical counter. It’s normally free of cost and it lets you know the number of people who have visited your blog.

If you want to raise your blog’s traffic the following ways could help you. You will have to be active in the community first by giving your remarks on other people’s blogs. Utilize the name that you would create your identity when you begin your blog. See that your remarks are short and interesting to read. It is good to give your remarks on blogs that are related to your blog. When you do so, they might end up giving their remarks on your blog too.

By writing catchy headlines and excellent first line, you could grab the attention of your readers. Try to write on matters that are less explored. Do not try to impress everyone because that is never possible. If you work hard and put your full effort success would come in search of you.

Discovering A Perfect Web Hosting Provider For Your Blog

Here is a post from the site of Miss Rose. This is somewhat great because it will really help you find a perfect web host that will give you a chance to have your own blog.


There are tons of web hosting providers. When you look for a web hosting provider for your blog the thing that you can almost neglect are the bandwidth and disk space. Many web hosting providers offer huge disk space and bandwidth that are much more than what you need.

They most important element is the safety of data. You cannot even think of missing all your data that you have worked on for years due to hardware failure on the web server. The web hosting providers must always keep a backup copy of data that is hosted through their servers. You mast also be able to get total technical help and time you are in need. Majority of the web hosting providers do not succeed in doing so.

To know how good the blog is just visit the forums and learn what the other users feel about the site. You should also make sure that the blog is accessible to your costumers all the time. Find out if you web hosting provider is providing Control Panel or not. Control panel lets you handle the files in your directory on the web server, track visitors, create e-mail, make use of disk space and bandwidth and much more.

Try to look for a medium sized web hosting provider as companies that have loads of domains could slow down the speed. A medium sized company contains sufficient number of users to rely on and yet they aren’t too large. If you want to install Wordpress then you will require a web hosting provider who provides PHP and MySQL database installed. Most of the web hosting providers have it but the cheaper ones may not have MySQL database. If the web hosting is not up to the mark then you may have to face a huge amount of problems. Thus it is very necessary to be cautious while selecting a web hosting provider.

What is a Blog?

This Post Is For A Real Beginner! Yes it's true. I learned a lot from this post from Miss Rose. I really find it interesting because it explains a lot about blog especially to newbies who finds blog as a "boring diary"

Before one enters into the blogging it is better to know what a blog is all about. There are varieties of ways to answer this question, from the simplest way to a highly technical one. Given below are few definitions of a blog.

A blog is a chain of text, images, data and media objects put together in a chronological order that could be viewed with the help of a HTML browser.

A blog is a recurrent, chronological publication of individual thoughts and web links.

A blog is principally a journal that is exists on the web. The process of keeping it updated is known as blogging and a person who owns a blog is known as a blogger.

A blog is a type of repeated journey with a human guide who you get to know. There are a number of guides to choose from, each creates an audience and there also politics among the people who blog. They point out to each other in many ways.

Blogs are normally updated everyday using softwares that let people with little or no technical knowledge to update and maintain a blog. The posting present in a blog are at all times set in chronological order.

A blog is a website where matters are posted daily and arranged in reverse chronological order. The word blog is abbreviated form of weblog or web log. Creating a blog, maintaining it or posting an article to a prevailing blog is known as blogging. Individual articles on a blog are known as blog posts, posts or entries. The person who publishes these posts is known as a blogger. A blog includes text, hypertext, links and images. Blogs make use of a spoken style of documentation. Normally every blog aims at a particular area of interest.

To make it easier – blog is a kind of website that is normally put in chronological order from the latest post on top of the page to the older posts towards the end. Blogs are mostly written on a specific subject. There are a huge range of blogs on any subject you can think of. There are blogs on politics, education, writing, personal account and much more. The whole blog communities have mushroomed around these subjects putting people into touch with one another where they can learn, make friends, discuss ideas as well as do business with people with same tastes from across the globe.

Blogs normally have some characteristics that are helpful to understand if you wish to get the most from them as a reader. Here are a few of them:

Archives: By looking at the first page of the blog you might come to a conclusion that there is nothing much in it. Some latest posts and a few links to some other sites and that’s it. But you should know that there are a many unseen things that might catch your interest. Apart from the main page of the blog there are a number of posts that are published sometime before. When a fresh post is published it appears on the first page and as it gets older and new posts are published it goes out of the first page. But this is not the end of those older posts; it just enters into the archives of the blog. You can go through the posts in the archive just by looking on the sidebar at the archives or categories section. There you will find links to the older posts.

Comments: Not every blog make use of comments, but most of them do. A blog is not a soliloquy but a conversation. You can give your feedbacks to a blog on any posts. At the end of each post you will find a comments button. You can leave your comments just by clicking it and keying your comments. The best way to understand what a blog is all about is to go through a few of them. You would understand it even better if you start one of your own.

Millions of people all around the world own a blog. It is not for any particular group of people. You need not be a computer expert to start one either. By just having access to internet just once or twice a week, you could start a blog and maintain it.
