Free podcast hosting service with unlimited bandwidth

January 28, 2007 by Tricia

One of the biggest new trends in the world of blogs is Podcasting. Many of the bloggers that I know have experimented with doing their own podcasts. Some are commentaries on what’s happening in the world, others are about specific topics, and still some are very much like the persons blog – a commentary on their family life or what’s happening in their own world.

If you’ve been thinking about trying out podcasting on your site, or if you have been doing your own podcasts but you’re frustrated because the files are taking up your limited storage space, fret no more. Mypodcast is a new site where you can create a Free Podcast that will be hosted on the site.

Offering free podcast hosting, and unlimited bandwidth, podcast templates and help files and articles related to podcasting you couldn’t ask for more. Oh yes membership is completely free.

Why not visit the site to learn more about podcasting and their hosting services.

Please let me know if you try out their podcasting service- I’d love to hear what you have to say- perhaps even in your very own podcast.

I got me some swag!

January 27, 2007 by Tricia

Finally!

P Swag

P has been giving away some of the P branded items to registered members. I think it’s there way of saying thanks to all of their posties for doing a good job promoting the company. I believe that the majority of P members will eventually get some free swag.

I’m not actually sure when it arrived.

You see, we found it on our enclosed front porch on Friday evening near the door, but tucked behind a chair. The green box was post marked January 9th, and the package was coming from Florida by Global Priority mail. I have no idea if that was express delivery or regular ground delivery, but I would assume that it would normally take a week or a bit more to get to me here in Toronto. So …. I have a feeling that it might have been sitting on my front porch for most of the week.

Remember it was hidden behind a chair, and whoever delivered it (probably Canada Post?) didn’t leave any notice of a package.

I had been keeping an eye on the porch just in case it arrived. I live in a pretty good neighborhood and unless something is marked with a specific value the postman often leaves packages in our enclosed porch. Usually they aren’t hidden quite as well. As I said I had looked out there every now and then glancing at the table and the surfaces of the two chairs but I didn’t see anything. Now I know why!

Anyway, as you can see the box contained one large foam finger. Maybe I can use that in one of the photo or video at some point. There was also a T-shirt that says “spreadin’ like peanut butter” , a gigantic 13 inch pen! I tried to write with it and because it’s so big it’s kind of heavy so it wasn’t that easy to write with. My husband didn’t have any trouble though. Maybe since I’m a lefty it’s harder to use? There was also a Pingo calling card worth $2.50. We can use that to make a long distance call or two. There was also a gift card for FamilyRecRoom.com but the site isn’t loading for me right now so I’m not sure what they sell. The final object was Mighty Minty Mints which I’m sure I’ll enjoy.

Take a look at the photo above. You see the rectangular box like object that’s under the round mint container? That’s the T-Shirt. I just unwrapped it so I could see what size they sent me since it doesn’t say on the outside of the package. Well the the shirt is somehow compressed into a crinkled rectangle. LOL I decided not to open it up fully because I want to show it to my husband when he gets up this morning. I hope the shirt is a small or a medium, but it feels kind of heavy like it might be a large or even bigger. Oh well, if it’s too big it will become T-shirt pj’s.

My husband also does work for Pay/perp0st on his website too. I wonder if he’ll get some swag as well? That’d be cool.

I had added up how much money that I’ve made with Pay/perp0st since I started with them in early October, and I also added how much my husband has made since he started and do you know how much we’ve made together in just a few months? Over $3,800! That would put us at number 4 on the top earners list if we weren’t two separate people! LOL

If you’ve been reading my site you know I’m not working due to my illness and that I’ve also got an $1100 medical test to pay for that I just had this week. So we can use that money.

Links of Love

January 26, 2007 by Tricia

Flavor Flav has his Flavor of Love show and I’ve got my links of love posts. I’m back with another issue of sites you don’t want to miss.

I’ll start with The Churning, this site is written by JJ and it’s a mix of eclectic posts from information about his band The Codes, to posts about whether, uh hum … There’s some interesting comments in that post. I’d say that for the most part this site is not for reading at work unless you know how to minimize quickly.

Momofthree has at least two great new blogs on her hands. The first site is called Coffee time (hey that’s the name of a popular coffee shop here in Canada, eh!) and it has a little bit of everything on it. Her other site is called Commonsense Critique and I’ve found that on that site Momofthree talks about a number of different products that really would be useful to have around in our day to day lives. Check out her sites.

The next site I want to tell you about is called Ambitiously Inquisitive. There’s a little bit of everything on this site. If you can’t find something that you like on the first page then you’re hard to please! There’s amusing stories and videos, tips on how to make money blogging, and personal tales. It’s worth a look.

I think that’s it for now! If I missed you and I had said I’d write about you please let me know.

Great prices at Office Supply Outfitters

January 26, 2007 by Tricia

Are any of you in charge of purchasing office supplies for your company? Or perhaps you own your own business and look after buying supplies yourself? Well if you do buy office supplies- even for your own home office you might be interested in visiting the Office Supply Outfitters.

I know that I’m took a look at their ink cartridge category to see if they carried ink cartridges for my Cannon Inkjet printer and guess what? They do, and the prices are at least half the price of what I’ve been paying for them in the store. I’m pretty sure that my ink is beginning to run out and I might even place an order with this company tonight so I’ll have the new cartridges when I need them.

Office Supply Outfitters has quite an impressive supply of toner cartridges, printer supplies, inkjet cartridges, fax supplies and even MICR toner. They even carry fax and cash register ribbons if you need those types of items for your business.

I know that there are times when I go through a lot of ink and printer supplies. I do a lot of graphic work and printing out photos uses up a lot of ink. I don’t mind, but I’ve always been keeping an eye out for deals on inkjet cartridges for lower prices than what I’ve been paying. I’m very pleased to say that I think I’ve found a company that I’d be happy to order from.

They ship throughout the US and on their shipping information page it mentions that they ship items overseas so I’m assuming that they would ship to Canada since that isn’t even overseas for this West Coast company. If they do ship to Canada I will be placing an order.

Check them out for yourself if you are in need of office supplies. I’m sure you’ll be pleased by their selection and by their prices as well.

Read about Asian Celebrities

January 23, 2007 by Tricia

Here’s an interesting site for my Asian visitors. I just visited an Asian Entertainment site, and by all appearances it looks to be very much like a celebrity site, similar to my own Celebrity Scoop except that it’s all about famous Asian celebrities.

The site is called Asia entertainment news, and it features news about Asian celebrities and socialites from China, HK, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. The site keeps up with news of these celebrities whether they are in their home Countries or abroad in Europe or North America. It’s also written in English.

It’s an interesting read even for non Asians as I’ve recognized some of the stars who’ve been written about on the site as having made a name in film or music here in North America.

The site has a nice, easy to read format and it’s filled with photos of the stars. Visit the site if you are interested in Asian celebrities.
