This is were you can post links to helpful sites.

eg if you have found a site which offers free ads hosting for blogs

or say a online virus scanner.

Ipadder - free blog host.

can customise your template if you know css or html.

Offers uploading of images. only 1mb but is a very nice simple to use blog host.

A few other sites that can come in handy when you least expect it:

If you type '10 inches to centimetres' into Google it does it for you. I'm pretty sure the same applies for temperatures, addition, subtraction, etc.

rhymezone.com

Y'know all those times you're looking for a rhyme for that tricky word (tacky greeting card rhymes, writing your own hiphop song etc...) rhymezone is the key.

It will not only give you words, but phrases, and you can click words for dictionary definitions.

I use it all the time... (not!) but found it really cool when doing a little project once and needed some "poetry"...

True Local has proven to be pretty helpful to me. It's good because you can review all sorts of businesses, not just restaurants or hotels like some other sites.

plus I just noticed that every review you write donates money to charity, so it's worth getting behind.
