Earn Money with Bookmark Pages

If you own a bookmark portal or a bookmark page, you naturally want to be able to make money with it. That’s obvious. Very few actually do earn income with their bookmarks, because they go and make every mistake possible. To earn money with bookmark pages you first have to overcome your stinginess. What does that mean? Quite simple, don’t go and delete users and accounts haphazardly and selectively, but allow and permit them. Only delete those that have clearly violated your site rules. (Illegal content, pornography, Werez, etc.). If you keep to this rule and remain open to new entries, then you will start making money with your bookmark pages.

Dealing with the Quirks of different Browsers in Typo3

Everyone who has created or worked on a larger website project has experienced the problem of dealing with the multitude of different browsers out there and their various quirks and failings.

This resulted in me getting better acquainted with the way things are found on the Net and how webpages can differ in quality. A friend told me about Content Management Systems and how they could help separate the content of … continue >

New Blog for Typo3 Programming and political Ranting

I just started this new blog. Always wanted a place where I can post some of my thoughts about programming in general and Typo3 in particular. Yes and I wanted a place where I can sometimes make a political statement about stuff that really bugs me. I’ll try to keep posting some Typo3 tips and tricks regularly and general information about changes to this CMS. I’ll also try to keep the ranting part of the politics down to the absolute minimum. I said I’d try, I didn’t say I’d be successful though.
