GoDaddy Promo Codes

I registered a few domains at godaddy a while back and also i bought new hosting plan from the same company.

The interesting thing is that prior to Checkout i reminded myself of the suggestion of my friend who actually told me about godaddy coupons.

I thought it is not big deal so i was always ignoring his appeals. lol

Well, this time i decided to follow his advice so i opened his email with the newest godaddy coupons.

As soon as i entered BTPS7 the grand total was drastically decreased by whole 20%.

Wow … i just saved about $40 which is not a low amount at all. I could buy some extra domains with this money. And i did so. I spent that money buying 6 extra domains. So cool!!!

From now i will always use the promo codes when i shop online!

So, here’s a list of a few codes for 2009

WEASEL9 – 30% off .COM domains +icann fee (renewals too)

WEASEL25 – 25% off if you spend $95 or more

WEASEL20H – 20% off web hosting

cjc689dom – New .COM – $6.89 + ICANN fee

hash3 – $7.45 .com registration

gdd1101c – 10% off any order of $40 or more

Rip Off

Recently i had very bad experience begging a bloody company for my own money.
Finally i want to tell you to stay away from this company and their site www.getafreelancer.com.
You should always deal with people whose addresses are real, customer service real and you can get a live person on the phone.
Yeah, that’s true that GAF has not phone number to be called. It sucks, isn’t it?
They have a LIVE SUPPORT button on their site but all it does is take you to their email form so their support is not live particularly when they take days on end to answer, if they bother to answer at all.

In addition, www.getafreelancer.com is in the habit of suspending members when their accounts have money in them. This has recently happened to me and I am aware of others that have gone through the same problem. In addition to this they will ask for ID of proof of Country. When you provide them with the pertinent information where they can see the ID. clearly but not to the point where it can be duplicated they want more. This doesn’t make any sense if its just for proof of country.
This is obviously something that this Company has been getting away with for some time. They are holding money not only in peoples personal accounts of money they have earned, but also in escrow.
Its time people took legal action. You can start by laying a complaint with the internet crime complaint center. There are also other legal sites listed on the internet as well that you can lodge a complaint with.

Strongly recommended!

Invalid postback or callback argument

One is for certain: This specific exception is mostly thrown when you use a Master page!!!

Add the same javascript attributes to the very same server control out of the master page and you’ll see that it is working just fine.

Sometimes the solution is that simple that it takes some time to find it

Say that you have added some javascript to the button to prevent rapidly and repeatedly clicks before it gets sent to the server.

this.value = 'Please wait...';
this.disabled = true;
.....

The solution is pretty simple. Just set the UseSubmitBehavior property to false.

Voila!

By the way, the UseSubmitBehavior property gets or sets a value indicating whether the Button control uses the client browser’s submit mechanism or the ASP.NET postback mechanism.

Force ASP.NET to use HTTPS

Ok let’s see how this thing works.

Say that your page is as follows: http://www.domain.com/yourpage.aspx
Ok, just add this code inside Load Event Handler and voila! That’s it!

If Not Request.IsSecureConnection Then
   Response.Redirect("https://www.domain.com/yourpage.aspx ")
End If

Msn Generous Offer

I just ran my MSN Live Messenger and i was offered to download a free themes for its 10th Birthday.

Ok althrough i never believed in a free stuff this time i said what a hell.

As soon as i clicked the Download button i was offered to download Internet Explorer 8 and immediately after that i received another dialog which was suggesting me to use Bing as my default browser and to make MSN my homepage.

I mean it’s a pretty bad trade. I get only few themes that most probably i will never use and in return they want me to to use IE8 (instead firefox), Bing (instead google) and to make MSN my homepage (instead google as well).

Well thanks for the generous offer but, i really don’t need your FREE things.

A picture is worth a thousand words!

Please send your comments if my WebService video tutorial is sort of blurred or something. Thanks

This is where i am drinking my first cup of morning coffee. It is a coffee bar located near me. Just 100 m from my apartment.

Btw, i do not smoke. It is the guy behind me!

Google Operating System

As you know Google announced a new OS called Chrome which is primarily intended and targeted for the netbooks.

However, i want to notice that if Google doesn’t find a way to run ALL (literally all) windows software applications on the new operating system it is going to be just one more Linux distribution.

If the new Chrome OS is able to run MS Office, Visual Studio and SQL Server it will become a serious competition to the Windows. Otherwise as mentioned it will end up as one more Linux distro.
