websites about stuff: Websites about "Deals for Free"!! - 02/15/09 09:36 PM
I have been writing post about useful web sites as reported by PC World. I am veering a little in that the websites I am presenting on this post did not come from the magazine; I saw most of these on a news show. These are websites about "Deals for Free". www.avvo.com This is a website for free legal advice. They have legal guides where you can browse information about everyday legal issues.

websites about stuff: Websites about "Finding Local Stuff"!! - 12/20/08 09:52 PM
I have been writing post about useful web sites as reported by PC World. I am continuing on my with my series and these websites will help you find local stuff. http://www.yelp.com/ This is a wonderful website for all that local stuff. You can read reviews about your local restaurants, stores, manicurist, etc. You can also write a review if you so desire.

We just heard that we are officially in a recession; although the powers that be say it officially started over a year ago. I have been writing post about useful web sites as reported by PC World. I am continuing on my with my series and these are about websites to help us survive the recession.

websites about stuff: Websites about "Planning a vacation"!! - 11/15/08 08:25 PM
Continuing on with my series on the 100 websites PC World recommended the websites in this post are about planning a vacation.

websites about stuff: Websites about "Buying, Selling and Renting Stuff"!! - 11/10/08 09:08 AM
I'm continuing on with my series on the 100 websites PC World recommended. Well kind of; this is my version so I am adding and deleting because I can.

We have also bought and sold cars off of

websites about stuff: Websites about "Learning Stuff"!! - 11/08/08 01:02 AM
In the current issue of PC World they give a section on 100 useful web sites. I found some of these to be really interesting. I am slowly visiting them and I am forwarding my favorites on. This is going to be a series and the first are websites about Learning Stuff. I am only forwarding the FREE sites so none of these cost. http://answers.yahoo.com/ I use Yahoo as my home page and have visited this site before. You can ask questions and then get answers back. I believe my question was "I think my cat has eaten rat poisoning; what do I do?"
