Got flash games? Make money out of them.


If you have a flash games site, or some flash games on your site, you might consider monetizing them. Yes, that’s right, they’re no longer doing it just for text and video!

TicTacTi, an israeli startup, came up with a great and really easy to use idea, in which the flashgame on your site could display ads in a contextual manner.

All you have tot do is follow te instructions in the video below and go to TicTacTi for more information. The ads ould originate from adexchangers like Doubleclick or the publisher’s adserver (let’s say Oberon or HeyZap). Of course TicTacTi will charge its own comission to that.

Hotmail “vacation response” hack still lives

An hour ago I have announced all en1813.com users that the game is alive again. :-)

As spanish internet users are in love with Hotmail accounts, I could see that the old Hotmail “vacation response” hack still lives.

Windows 7 Beta - everything started 13 years ago

The beta release of the last Microsoft operating system, Windows 7, can be downloaded since yesterday on downloadwin.com also. You have both versions available to download, review or comment:

- Windows 7 Beta, 32-bit
- Windows 7 Beta, 64-bit

The download pages contains also the Windows 7 Beta serials that Microsoft offered with the .iso files. To install Windows 7 Beta you will need to burn the .iso file on a cd. I recommend Nero 9.2.6.0, one of the world’s most trusted integrated digital media and home entertainment software suite.


The usability improvements or the fact that it consume less resources than Vista, the touch screen features, speech and handwriting recognition are not the reason for this article. Reading about Windows 7 Beta, I realised one thing that no one said anything. It requires 16G hard-disk space!

I have notice an ad with there.com on it and an invitation to join this virtual There community.

Obviously, I have made a little research and I have found that the website is quite old, starting back in December 24, 1997 as The Anonymizer, a free proxy website (surf the web anonymously-like website), an anonymous point of access for all of you who cannot visit different websites from work. Yeah, something like hidemyass.com :-)

What happend with there.com in the last 11 years?
