This time, I’d like to share about a website that helps me so much this time in deciding which camera I should buy. A year ago, I refer to this website when I bought Canon Powershot A640. Few days ago, I sold my Canon A640 in order to be replaced by Canon EOS 400D and once again, I refer to this website.
First, the layout of the website looks very cool, with black background, small sidebars which will expand when we put the mouse on one of the links there. The reviews/previews link is what I frequently visited besides the buying guide link. In the reviews/previews page, we will find a list of cameras which are already reviewed in this website, sorted in chronological order which is divided into two group: Reviews: Chronological, Recent (last 12 months) and Reviews: Chronological (older than 12 months). We can also pick one of the latest reviews directly from the sidebar menu which lists some latest reviewed cameras, and also page which shows the “by rating” reviews and “more”, which means we can choose which reviews we’d like to read (reviews main page).

Technorati Profile
Technorati is the one of the social bookmarking sites which accommodates and used as a showcase of anything that happens on the Internet. This is called a live web. The Live Web is the dynamic and always-updating portion of the Web. Using technorati, we can search, surface, and organize blogs and the other forms of independent, user-generated content (photos, videos, voting, etc.) increasingly referred to as “citizen media.”
By using technorati, we can see abundant of blogs in the Internet, completed with statistics and ranking. At the moment, one of the blog which sits on the top rank of technorati is http://www.engadget.com, which has 24,990 authority. I should check what’s in it and find out how can it be on the top 100 position.

This time I want to write about a forum I recently joined. It’s Digital Point. It is a forum which is specially designed for webmasters and web developers who want to share their know-how and skills in building and creating a good website, even a money generating website (internet marketing). I see this website has a great design and layout using its latest VBulletin 3.6.8. The forum loads fast because I don’t see any image content in the post, and it’s easy to post and create thread because there is a FAQ guideline each time we want to make a post or thread. Per February 12, 2008 it has 677,481 threads, 6,324,779 posts, 138,101 members, and 46,944 active members. Green color of the VBulletin template is very eyes friendly, plus good categorization of sub forums. One thing which is I considered as the negative aspect of this forum: The moderators there are too strict to the members, even after 10 minutes of posting, people could be banned for certain reasons. I guess this is for the good of the forum so I have to be very careful when do the posting.

Yes.. the next website to be listed in the initial review is Kaskus - The Largest Indonesian Community. This forum was entitled the largest because of more than 300.000 active members. Although sometimes there are problems related to the servers capability to handle the webload, this forum could be said full of everything. Starting from education until everything-should-not-be-mention here.
This is the forum where most Indonesian people get their everyday business, change of information, debating and even trying to get a relationship. The forum was established on November 6, 2000 by Indonesian students live in United States. The domain was initially ending with .com and because of virus thread, it was then changed into .us

My first review on the website. As I promise to the owner of the website (although it was not in agreement), I put this website in the first review. I myself have been using two free themes from this website. And I think that the free wordpress themes provided by Bob are great. Simple, fast-loading and eye-catching. I found this website incidentally when I added my friends domain into my webhosting and install wordpress engine for him. When he did uploading the themes (at that time, he used redline theme), I was just curious where he got the theme. Then I looked down to the footer and I saw the creator of the theme.Yes, although they are free, however, they are comparable to the premium one. Perhaps one day I could oder a premium theme specially made for my by Bob from Blog oh Blog.
Thanks Bob, you’ve made me know what the arts are. Great Job!!!
