Free Domain Name & Web Hosting

Earlier this evening, a thought crossed my mind to find companies that offer cheap domain names. You may know that I wanted to register four new domain names and I just added two more, so it will be a total of six names for now. Being cheap, I thought that surely there will be a company that is offering cheap domain name registration like my second domain name that I registered for MYR0.99 only.

While searching for web, I came across this site called Free Domain Site. Apparently, we can have our very own free domain name and one year of free web hosting courtesy of Free Domain Site, which means to say that they are giving us a trial period that lasts a full year.

I don’t know if there is such a great deal on earth but they did mention that we get full control of our domain name too. HHmm does it mean that we can transfer our domain to another registrar after six months?

The only thing that is stopping me is the thought of moving blogs should I want to transfer my site to another host. By the way, if you would like to try this trial run out, please be aware that each person is only eligible for one free domain name and web hosting package.

Free Music Tool Bar

If you have been following my blog, you will know that lately, I have been busy checking out sites that provide us with free music. Well, this information is much needed after we have been warned of a fine of MYR25,000 if we are caught to download music, movies and other intellectual material illegally.

While I have come across sites that provide free download of music or streaming of music, just now, I was told that we can download a free music toolbar from ListenTopia.com. This toolbar is compatible with both Internet Explorer and FireFox so it makes it very convenient for us to listen to music as we surf the web.

Using this free music toolbar from Listentopia.com, not only will we be able to listen to music endlessly, we will also get to contribute our music to the community to share with other members.

Imagine uploading your full library of songs from your iTunes or WinAmp playlists and stream online your favorite music wherever you are as long as you are connected to the internet!

Super Laugh Funny eCards

Work can be extremely boring but lucky for those of us who are connected to the internet most of our working hours, we get to surf to places and amuse ourselves. However, it would be better if our friends sent us the good stuff instead of us going around looking for them, right?

Have you, some time or other, just sent a random card to a friend to cheer him or her up? I mean, it’s not any special occasion or whatever, but to tell that person that you are thinking of him/her.

Super Laugh is a great site to do that. There are plenty of free cards here and all of them are humour cards. Wow… it sure kills boredom to receive a card that could make me laugh!

Free 14-Day Trial of Rhapsody To Go

I am sure every music-loving web user has heard of Rhapsody. If you have not then you must have been living in a cave haha! Did you know that Rhapsody has a 14-day free trial of music downloads where we get to download five free songs during this trial period on top of having full access to the Rhapsody music player.

After this trial period, if we do not cancel our subscription, we would be billed US$14.99 per month. Just so you know, downloading of songs is a separate charge.

I am writing this post because I found out that many people are searching for options to download music legally, more so after the warning from the authorities that we will be fined MYR250,000 if we are caught to download illegal material like songs, movies and software.

Anyway, this offer by Rhapsody is only available for residents in the United States. However, even if I live there, I would not be subscribing because I don’t know how easy it is to unsubscribe from the trial. tsk tsk tsk!

Free Bon Jovi Media Swag

I’m sure by now all my friends know that I am crazy about Bon Jovi *ahem* Well, the other day while looking for free Bon Jovi ecards to send out to friends for the New Year, I came across this official Bon Jovi media swag page.

I don’t really know why it’s called “Media Swag” when these freebies are for us to use on our own computer. In any case, check out and download free Bon Jovi AIM buddy icons, wallpapers, screen savers and the Bon Jovi widget for your website or blog.

Come to think of it, my AIM buddy icon needs changing and the widget looks nice but then my blog real estate doesn’t come cheap so unless they pay me …. LOL

Download Free Beautiful WordPress Themes

Since hosting my own blogs, I wonder how many websites I have surfed to that offer free WordPress Themes. I tell you, I am so very fussy that I flipped pages after pages of sites and downloaded over a hundred themes to try on my sites. I know that I could view the preview or demo first but then I also wanted to see if I could customize the theme by myself for my own needs. If a theme is too complex to customize then I have to let it go. Too bad, right?

Here’s one of the latest sites that I came across just now called WP Designer. It’s a site that has premium WordPress themes as well as plenty of free themes. I ended up not getting any of the themes from here because they are not suitable for the nature of my blog.

However, if you have been looking for fresh themes for your blog to usher in the New Year, you may want to check out WP Designer. It’s weird that in the one year since I started my self-hosted WordPress blogs, and started searching for themes, I did not come across this site before. I must have been living in a cave. Eeekkk!!!
