Read More ...Well, today I have a special post for webmasters and as well for the non-webmasters. Would you like to have your own “www.yourname.com” domain? Well, you have to pay about 7 or 8 dollars per year for your domain but I have found a nice little site that allows you to earn your own domain name. All you have to do is sign up on a particular website, confirm your email and voila! You get one point each time you do this and once you have 6 points you can request your own domain. These offers only take about 5 minutes each, if not less. So technically speaking, you can complete the offers in a half an hour! There are two alternatives that you can use to earn your free domain. One is the process I mentioned above and the other is completing surveys. Both are legit and work, so just read below and choose the one that you like.
1) Fbox.us - This is the site that only requires you to sign up and confirm your email on their offers. Now you may be wondering about spam and how your email address will be used by the site. It is very much possible that the sites will keep sending you spam, so I suggest that you make a separate email address to do these offers. This is not a scam as I have done it myself and the other user testimonials also suggest a good response from the admins. You can also earn points for more things like free rapidshare accounts, free gaming servers, free paid hosting from UMX Host, and more free stuff is being added everyday. Also, be sure to read the rules and guidelines before you sign up.
2) DomainLagoon.com - There is also another site that allows you to earn your own .com domain but you will need to complete several surveys which takes more time. But some people may prefer this option so I decided to write about this as well. Firs of all, you will need to be living in the United States, Canada, or England to sign up on this site. This is because all their surveys are targeted to the residents of these countries. Also note, if your from Canada or England then you will have less available offers to complete so it may take a longer time to earn your domain.
All you gotta do is sign up on this site, see the available offers and start completing. The points vary with each offer that you complete. You must earn 9 points to request your domain. Its fairly easy though, I got 11 points in about 2 hours. Also, I suggest that you don’t do the cell phone offers as they may prove to be somewhat misleading. Just stick to the free offers and you will be fine. Also, you will need to validate yourself once you request your domain. This means that you will be required to call on their automated calling system and leave your credentials. It is all given in the frequently asked questions so read them first. There are also other lagoons that you can sign up with to earn different prizes. For example Cashlagoon, Hostinglagoon, Gaminglagoon, and more!
If you ask me, I would suggest Fbox over Domainlagoon as it is available to all international people and is less time consuming. I am eligible to request my own domain at Fbox but I have no ideas about what domain as yet so I haven’t requested a domain yet. But I may do so in the coming week or so. If i do then I will update this post telling you of my experience. If you have any comments or questions, just post below or contact me using the contact page (link at the top). I hope you enjoy your own .com domain! 
There must have been one time or another, when you have moved to a faraway city or to a different country all together and you are deprived of your favorite TV channels and your favorite TV shows. Or if you travel a lot, then again you will be missing your favorite TV channels like Star Sports, ESPN, CCTV5, SHTV, Fox, ABC, CBS, GolTV, NBA TV and many more. Luckily, there are several nice P2P(peer-to-peer) software that let you watch live TV on your pc for free!
I am compiling a list of the 5 best applications that let you watch free live TV on your pc. I will be posting the distinctive features of each player as well, so that will help you to decide which one best fits your needs. If you need any help then contact me by commenting here or by using the contact page(link at top).
1. TVU PlayerTVU Player is my favorite out of all the applications because it is a no-hassle program which is backed up with great channels that you can enjoy at rather good quality. The player uses p2p to broadcast the channels so if more users are watching a certain channel then it will work very nicely. Even I had no problems with the buffering, and I have a slow internet connection(384k). Some of the more notable channels are Star Gamers TV, Sci fi Channel, CBS, Bloomberg, NASA TV, Fox News, Spike TV, ABC7 News, Fox News, CCTV5, SHTV, Star Sports, GolTV and many more! You will surely find something that you like there. From their site: “In the first year of service, the TVUPlayer has already been downloaded over 7 million times.” I highly recommend this to all users who wish to watch tv on their pc.
2. Sopcast
My second most favorite player, and sometimes even my first choice due to the great list of channels that it has. It also uses peer-to-peer technology to broadcast. So just like TVU, you will get awesome quality if more users are connected to a given channel. One of its main advantage is that it has a very fast buffering system(unlike TVU). Also, it has a very nice list of tv channels from all the different categories like sports, news, comedy, cartoons, movies, etc. Another great distinctive feature to the sopcast player is the VOD(Video on Demand) function, meaning you can select from a range of different movies and shows and it will play them from the very first minute!
