my online adventures...
Do you need to send newsletters to your customers? Or do you have a new product that you want to offer to your subscribers? If so, your best bet is to use aweber…
However, if you would rather save your money, or if you just rather do things on your own, then read on… I will show you how to use a free software called PHP List to run email campaigns (and save you the headache that most go through when trying to set this up properly).

I covered this a little while ago, but it was directed at vista and Access 2003. Now with Windows 7 it seems it has gotten much easier to use ODBC to connect microsoft access to your mysql databases. I needed to set up a connection for a new project I was doing today, so I figured I will break it down real quick for anyone needing to know how to set it up.
If the database does not exist, well then obviously create one. Log into your hosts cPanel or whatever your host uses; Set the ‘host’ to ‘%’ (minus the quotes); Create the username and password. If the database already exists then go on to the next step.

Part 2… Ok well I crearted the site today – Nothing fancy, just a real basic site. My comp is a ‘dot gov’ site and cbs news, so I think the site looks good for what it is suppossed to be.
My friend is a registered dietetic technician and she wrote the first two articles for me. She is also writing the ebook that I am targeting for the site.

The Catalyst Theme is an insanely customizable theme, or framework. Better than Thesis in my opinion. However, for many people it’s been hard to find a suitable shopping cart for catalyst. Shopping cart plugins in general are a pain in the shhhh. Especially when you consider that many shopping carts cost over $200 for a developers license.

None of us like spam comments on our WordPress Blogs. Why do they do it anyway? Well I’ll explain for the curious… Because if you understand why it is done, then you can understand what you need to do to prevent most of it… yes, only ‘most’ of it.
Simple… To get backlinks. Backlinks tell google that a particular site may be relevant. The more relevant google thinks a site is, the higher up in the resuilts the site may appear. (Yes, I said ‘may’ because there are other factors involved).
