"To Charge-Or Not To Charge-Should Be No Question!"Written by John Evans
"To Charge-Or Not To Charge-Should Be No Question!" copyright 2002 John EvansAn ezine came in a while back, and someone had complained about a particular ezine (doesn't matter which one). The publisher of ezine in question had recently stated that they would no longer be giving FREE ads; we would now have to start paying for them. The complainer said something to this effect, "These ezine publishers just sucker us in with free ads, until they get lots of subscribers, then they want to start charging us for ads." The above is not an exact quote, but you get meaning! Well, stop and think about it. Most of us on Internet ARE on Internet to MAKE MONEY! (Mind, I said MOST). Pure and simple. And that includes Ezine Publishers. And why not? They don't put their hearts and souls, and MANY hours of sweat, into putting out an ezine purely so WE can have our ads published for FREE! Do they? What are those free ads all of us have been receiving all these many months? BONUSES! You've been given bonuses before, haven't you? Maybe a free ebook for joining, or some free software for "taking a look", or maybe even a gift certificate for something.

"Using Eudora 5.0? Make Your Toolbar 'Stay'!" copyright 2001-02 John EvansEudora version 4.1 was my choice for an email client, and I had used it for quite some time. I had tried others, but Eudora filled bill for my needs. But one thing that annoyed me was fact that one toolbar (the one with little icons for "in", "out", "check mail", "address book", etc.) was always clear over to left of screen. For sake of convenience, I wanted it over in middle. Well, I finally discovered that I could 'drag' it to where I wanted it, and it would stay right there, always. Which is whole point of this article ip. After upgrading to version 5.0, I found that toolbar would NOT stay where I put it. I'll bet many of you may have run across this, also.
