    Interesting and relevant links I found.

    AN Hosting affiliate program

    31st March 2008

    I have just joined AN Hosting Affiliate Program – you can tell by the new link in Web Hosting section in the right sidebar, and by the real huge banner on the blog hosting page (so huge actually that it won’t fit completely with smaller resolutions like 1024×768 and less). I do not yet know if this affiliate program is worth the trouble, but I did find good feedback for their hosting on Drupal forums (here and here and search for more), so that really was the initial reason to put the links to them.

    I would be interested in AN Hosting feedback, as I do plan to try their services one day.

    P.S. A Small orange (direct link) also has lots of positive feedback.

    Good techie intro for would-be Drupal developers

    26th March 2008

    Drupal technical introduction
    It’s quite old, but as it describes core functionality, it should be still actual.

    Please comment if you know of any other good high-quality technical Drupal introductions/descriptions.

    SystemRescueCD

    15th March 2008

    Earlier, I wrote about Universal boot CD , which is targeted primarily at the hardware testing/diagnosing.

    If not hardware, but “only” software is malfunctioning – try SystemRescueCD, a Linux-based recovery CD/DVD/Flash stick (it all depends on how you burn/install the downloaded file – manuals and how-to’s are available).

    As always, Disclaimer: I am in no way associated with SystemRescueCD, and gain no profit from this post. Any advice I give is provided AS IS, with no guarantees of fitness to your exact case.

    How to end (an official) letter

    15th March 2008

    Found useful list and discussion of the complimentary closings.

    It’s the “complimentary close” or “complimentary closing” that business writers are wondering about, those phrases that come before the signature in a letter:

    1. Very truly yours,
    2. Respectfully,
    3. Yours truly,
    4. Sincerely yours,
    5. Sincerely,
    6. Best regards,
    7. Regards,
    8. Cordially,
    9. With many thanks,
    10. Warm wishes,
