is this the end of demonoid?
i was going about my daily web routine when suddenly a rather empty looking page caught my attention. it was demonoid! when you open the site you are greeted with text stating :
The CRIA threatened the company renting the servers to us, and because of this it is not possible to keep the site online. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your understanding.
The CRIA tried to shut down demonoid not so long ago but instead ended up just restricting access to Canadian residents. But now it seems that demonoid will be gone for a while. I'm pretty sure their ISP doesn't want any trouble.
adsense with rounded corners !!!
Adsense ads are now available with rounded corners.. The Adsense team has released a post entitled "We go round and round" which gives light to this new feature.
This new option is part of our ongoing effort to improve the look and feel of our ads. We're also working to give you even more choices to customize your ad formats while maximizing revenue and user satisfaction. We hope you enjoy the new corner options, whether you choose to go edgy or bubbly.
i think they're pretty neat. at least we've got more options to choose from... the rounded corners do seem a bit more appealing... tsk tsk tsk....
smartbro… generous?
it seems to me that smartbro is being generous these days. i don't really know why but my bandwidth speed is really high these past few days? and when i say high, i mean 1++mbps.. That's more than twice as much as the advertised 384kbps.. maybe they just haven't noticed it yet.. or maybe their fixing something? LOLZ! i don't know, but i hope this stays for a while...
UPDATE: well, my smartbro connection is still on the high.. hahahaha! better spend my time downloading some precious programs... LOL!
