    Anyone got an SIRV visa?

    I've just started looking into this. From what I've read, the SIRV visa allows permanent resident status of individuals to the Philippines, and allows them to own a corporation, for the mere investment of $75,000 USD. There is a list of allowed corporation sectors, but one of them is software...

    Moniker's Domain Privacy Is Worthless

    I run a site which offers business listings. For legal reasons I do not remove any business listings, but I do let anyone comment on them and let others know the listings are incorrect. So this woman gets a new phone number, and the number was previously held by a male escort, this means she...

    Domain licensing and liability

    I haven't been able to find anything on this, so I presume there is very little legal precedence. If you license/lease a domain to a company, what liability can you incur from the companies use of the domain? Here are a couple of situations to ponder. If a domain is leased out, is it treated...

    Copeac selling their email list?

    I just got an email from conductsearch.com to my copeac email address (copeac@mydomain.com) sent via iContact. The list I'm on says ConductSearch_TradeShow but I'd have never given out that address ever at a trade show, and the email is targeted. Anyone else get this? Maybe a rogue asshole...

    What facebook and fax machines have in common

    A while back I heard an interesting perspective on the fax machine which I feel relates to facebook and it's crazy valuation. So if you think about the first fax machine being created, it cost around $2K to buy, but it effectively had zero value since having no other machines to send to it had...

    Do you own or are you a mod on a large Australian blog, forum or community?

    We're having some issues gaining traction with a new service we offer to Australians due to a lot of skepticism over our product. We feel the best way to build trust is to have those of you with a strong presence in Australian communities talk about our service. We want to pay to have site...

    What to do with a flash developer?

    So I have a flash guy, he's good at what he does, and he doesn't cost me much to keep on the books. I had a lot of work for him for the last year or so, but now I'm basically out of things for him to do. I don't want to get rid of him because it's hard to find good devs, and he is cheap, but...

    What would you want out of to-do list software?

    I use Basecamp right now for most of my to-do needs. The todo functionality is as nice as you need, everything is ajax and there isn't a hell of a lot wrong with it. I can't seem to find any software out there that is as advanced as I want, but has enough of a simple interface that it won't get...

    Why is BP liable for any of this?

    BP contracted out Transocean to drill for them. Doing so is standard practice in the industry. Transcocean messed up, and BP having the contract over the oil takes blame for it. BP mobilizes a second rig to get it over there to drill a second hole and concrete it - surprise surprise it takes a...

    SEO Companies

    So I dumped some contact details in one of those crappy lead sites to see what SEO companies could do for me. The short of the request being "I want to build authority, I want relevant authoritative incoming links, what's your link building strategy for my situation?" So far I'm up to three of...

    GetLandingPages.com Sucks! DO NOT USE THEM

    Do not use this company for your landing pages. Their service is painfully slow, their work is sloppy, and they don't give a shit about anything but themselves. The landing page they made for me not only does not do what I want it to do, but also has the following flaws: 1) The call to action...
