I’ve just been informed by the owner of wintweaks.ro that the domain will no longer be available. So update your bookmarks with wintweaks.org.

The rumors are getting louder about Google launching a mobile phone. The future, a mobile device that has other functionalities like email and browser. The Future.

The today reality is that Apple’s device will have to fight a bigger battle than iPod. the iPod situation was easy. On an empty and disorganized market came a device that was cool and easy and had a way to put music on it. As i said, easy. But the mobile phones is not an easy market. Nokia and Ericsson have been fighting for the top place a few years now. Samsung, LG and others are biting hard. A new comer will have to try hard.

And, guess what, there isn’t any room. Mail? They already have it! MP3? My w880i has 1gb storage! Camera? Nokia N95, 5 megapixel!

iPhone doesn’t bring anything new to the table. Except a fanbase, eager to buy Apple products. Will this be enough? We will see…

Hei, Adobe, if i wanted my software to look like i’m on a Mac, i would have bought a Mac.
Otherwise, not impressed. Going back to PS8.

Over the time i have been changing registrars and hosters a few times. I like to pay for a whole year, or maybe just half, because i don’t like to be bothered every month with bills.

Some hosting providers are offering free domains with registrations. In 2001, i step up to that offer and selected a “free domain with a hosting account”. Not a good idea. The domain was a good one, a .org, kinda popular now among certain people.

What did i do with it? Use it for about 2 months, put my site there and started advertising it. It got about 100 hits a day. I was happy. After a while, due to some problems, i wanted to move my stuff to a different hosting provider. Not an easy thing to do. Copied my files, but not the domain. I tried for several times to move from the former hoster, but no go. There was always a problem. The domain was locked, the registration was prohibited, i didn’t answer in time, something was always wrong. After 5 tries and a lot of emails, i gave up.
I felt bad, i registered the same domain with .net and didn’t think too much about it.

When i registered with dreamhost.com, i saw the “free domain” offer. Nope! I am not falling for this trick again!
But some of my friends did, when they registered their  name dot com with yahoo or others and now they can’t use it!

Just say no!
