Occasionally I enjoy the Home Channel.
Sometimes it’s a little “girly”, but other times it gives you a little “Useless Knowledge” 
Anyway, today I saw this little tip:

The other day I was reading a Popular Mechanics magazine when I got to the end and noticed a full page of reader-submitted tips.
I LOVE tips. The shorter yet more valuable, the better.
So, I thought I would share some of them with you in case you ever wondered if you should buy this magazine.
BUT, before I do, I would like to mention that I’ve just added a new feature to this website.
If you have an iPhone, or even cooler, a Google Android phone (I have the new HTC Desire, an AWESOME phone), then you can view this site in a mobile friendly format.
Of course, if you’re geeky enough to have one of these phones, you’re probably wondering why you would want to view it “mobile friendly”. The answer is, it’s specially formatted in a way that will seem very familiar to iPhone and Android users.
And, to make it REALLY easy to visit the site, you only have to type in the following URL in your browser:
How easy is THAT?
Ok, now, onto the readers’ tips…

Even after ALL THESE YEARS Coricraft is STILL making things EXTREMELY difficult for it’s customers.
With comments from readers who have worked for Coricraft indicating that they are setting us up for failure from the start, you really have to wonder why people still buy from them.
But, when we do, a “small” percentage of us suffer.
Here is a letter to the Coricraft CEO from a reader who is fed up with Coricraft and trying to get a refund.
Pretty interesting…

For those of us lucky enough to LIVE in South Africa during the 2010 Soccer World Cup, and for those of you lucky enough to VISIT South Africa for the SWC, here is a little something that might help.
For those of you who don’t really care about the Soccer World Cup, this guide has some interesting information about South Africa, so you might like to read it anyway.
The 2010 FIFA World Cup Fan Guide, provided by FIFA, has a ton of interesting and useful information.
I think you really need to share this with everybody who you think will find it useful.
Here’s the table of contents so you can see what’s inside:

I haven’t written in a while, but I thought I would add this list to the site because it really amused me.
Do YOU have anything you’d like to write about? With over 1200 subscribers to this site, it will get read by quite a few people.
Anyway, here goes:
1. I think part of a best friend’s job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.
2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong.
3. I totally take back all those times I didn’t want to nap when I was younger.

I’ve had quite a few visitors to this site who are not aware that this is NOT the OUTsurance website.
So, before I post a couple of cool little nuggets of information, I thought I would give you the OUTsurance contact details in case you need them.
If you’re looking to get a quote from OUTsurance, visit this webpage, fill in the form, and let THEM phone YOU! It will be cheaper in the long run:

The holiday season is almost upon us.
And whether you celebrate Christmas or not, you probably give presents.
Do you know anybody travelling over this holiday season? Maybe get them a couple of audiobooks to help let the travel time pass quickly.
Will it be cheap because of the “global meltdown”?
Will it be expensive because you’re just so rich?
Hopefully no family members are reading this (you know how it is with family, they never visit your website unless you ask them 
), but here’s what my wife and I bought for our family:
Whatever you’re giving this year, please take a look at some of the other “gift” pages on this site for inspiration:
- Christmas Gift Ideas – This is the main one where other visitors have given their own ideas (just like you’re about to 
)
- Romantic Anniversary Gift – Nobody says this HAS to be an anniversary present only
- Audi Advanced Driving Course – OK, NOT exactly a cheap idea, but a great one none-the-less.
- Gift Ideas for Mothers Day – Maybe you’ll find a little inspiration here
- Gift Ideas for Fathers Day – And even MORE inspiration
I really hope you can share your own ideas. It just makes life easier for everyone.
Especially for people who are not so creative. There are some REALLY creative readers out there.
Are you one of them?
Everybody needs a break from the norm. Even if it’s just relaxing at home.
A few weeks ago it was my birthday and my wife treated me to a holiday in Hazyview, Mpumalanga. It’s near the Kruger National Park for those like me who didn’t know that.
When I say treated, I mean TREATED!
This place is AMAZING!!!
Obviously, you’re getting what you paid for, and it’s not cheap, but it is a 5 star holiday “resort” and I must say, it’s one of the few places I would say that actually deserve that rating!

Picture it.
You come home from shopping and you have 10 plastic bags filled with groceries.
You unpack your bags, pack away the shopping, BUT, you don’t throw away the plastic shopping bags because you’re supposed to USE them again!
So what do you do with them? Where do you pack the bags? How do you pack them so they are neat and tidy?
I’ll show you how, right here. WITH PHOTOS!
I’m pretty sure you’ll say to yourself: “Self, why didn’t I think of that?!”

Here are the 4 websites I think could probably generate the most conversation, so sharing them with friends is definitely recommended.
They can be so much fun that I even think it’s OK to bring out a computer at a party. But that’s just my opinion.
