LilyPie Free Baby Time Tracker

I have seen the use of Lilypie time tracker on many of my Mummy Blogger friends’ blogs. I love their cute graphics but too bad I can’t use this tracker because these are baby time trackers only.

Lilypie has many different childish graphic sets that you could select from to use for your baby time tracker and after entering the required information, you will be able to embed the generated code on your blog.

If you have a blog, especially one that is on your toddlers, you should use this to track their age or an important event like their birthdays. Lilypie is one of the well-accepted baby time trackers among mothers so it must be able to meet the requirements of mothers. I would use it if I could.

DigiScrap Depot

I am a fan of digiscrapping though I can’t seem to find the time to do anything about it. I know that once I start, I will be totally addicted to it that I would not be able to manage my work well. I am far behind as it is! I keep telling myself that I would have plenty of time to play with digiscrapping once I retire. I imagine myself as a little old lady fiddling with digiscrapping programs on the computer. LOL

This morning, as I was searching for free digiscrap stuff doe my sister, I came across DigiScrap Depot. Of all the digiscrapping sites that I have featured on my blogs before, i don’t believe that I have written about them before.

If you love digiscrapping too, check them out. All freebies are arranged according to themes so it makes it really easy to find what you want. The theme for September, by the way, is Grandparents’ Day.

Free Condoms, Maybe

Every once in a while I come across oddball freebies from my daily search on the internet for freebies, giveaways, samples and other cheapskate promotions. Today, I get to know of this free condom website. Now, there is a catch, though. If you want free condoms, you will need to sign up with their affiliate programs, collect points and then redeem free condoms.

I don’t like to sign up to affiliates, especially those that are on trial because it is not going to be easy to cancel your subscription or membership. The real free ones are OK, though. Now, I what I do not understand is why would anyone want to go through all the trouble for free CONDOMS? Are they so expensive? Could one wait for free CONDOMS to be delivered?

I am sure you know that I have my own ecommerce store and there was once that I contemplated selling condoms too but a friend told me that shipping would be a problem due to heat which could damage the rubber of condoms and if the condoms leak, I would have lawsuits on my hands. Think about it.

Create A Free Wiki

I was searching for web freebies when I came across this website called Wetpaint. I have never heard of it before but it’s a wiki site. Perhaps I may have seen a Wetpaint wiki widget on some site or other but it did not register. Anyway, I am sure everyone has heard of Wikipedia before. Well, this one runs on the same concept. By the way, Wiki seems to be all the rage lately, right?

I visited some Wetpaint wiki pages and it looks like a lot of people just booked their names without adding content. Also, I see Google AdSense being used and I wonder whose AdSense account is being used. Members’ or Wetpaint’s?

If you are looking for a wiki page, perhaps it is good to start one on Wetpaint and not get lost in an already established site like Wikipedia.

Let me know if you already have a Wetpaint Wiki.

Free Halloween iPhone Wallpapers

I was searching for some iPhone wallpapers when I stumbled upon this website called Free Halloween Screensavers. Since it’s going to be Halloween soon, I thought that it would be a great idea to share my discovery. I am not the only one looking for iPhone Halloween wallpapers, right?

This website, Free Halloween Screensavers, actually offers more than just screensavers, more than just for the occasion of Halloween. I believe that they started off with the intention of offering Halloween freebies only but expanded on the website later but I may be wrong. 😀

So, if you are looking for some eerie iPhone wallpapers, of ghouls and vampires and what not, do check out this website, Free Halloween Screensavers. You could also find the same for desktops or even PSPs!

Yell Box For Your Blog

I am sure most bloggers are familiar with Shout Boxes. These are mini windows where you could place in the sidebar of your blog and invite live chatting with your blog readers.

When I first started my blog, I was looking high and low for a chat box too but in the end, I decided not to place one in my blog because it invites unsolicited comments and link exchanges and also promotes spam. However, chat boxes or shout boxes are still very popular, especially among young bloggers who run personal blogs.

Here is a shout box that I chanced upon this morning called, cutely, Yellbox. I’m not going to write more about it because it has the same concept as a shout box. If you are looking for one for your blog, check this out.
