The Truth of Advertising

Often thinking why and how advertising works… here is a good one:

Australia bans booze, porn to save Aboriginal children

Quote: “Howard said he was taking control of indigenous communities

As a friend of mine said… “well, what an idea.”

How is it out of a sudden the government started to care for indigenous communities? Why did they picked just one thing and continue to totally ignore the rest? If the government so cares about them, how about spending some money on education and health? Again, the history repeats itself.

Then, thinking in practical terms, if the community is against this new law, how is it going to work? Police arrives at a remote community. The officers say to the elders, “Ok.. bring us a list of kids who were sexually abused. We’re going to take them away.” Or, “Bring all your porn magazines here”. As if.

The idea may sound good on air but it’s totally useless in practical terms.

how about learning each other

This email was sent to our sales@fasthit mail box. Enjoy.

Ave, my gentleman

I believe that we will succeed. I believe that we will take the non-sinking sheep of love and will go far away to the ocean, on the waves of unopened passions, we will open the doors of wishes and dreams which never happened yet… You should know that there is a lady in this world, I am here for you, and for me your name is not just an empty sound, for me you are a man who will always be gentle and caring with me. Let the memories of me come to you each time you read my words, I still believe that I can be happy and that you will reply to my brave letter for you at [http://web address here...] And I will write my letters to you and will greet you: Hello, My Destiny! It’s me again!

Hugs

Could not connect”? Try clearing DNS cache on your copmuter

Here at Fast Hit we often get calls with people saying, “Oh, our web site doesn’t work, we get could not connect error”! This often happens with web sites that just were moved to a new IP and the computer has the old IP cached in the DNS.

More info is here: http://www.ausbusiness.net/review/clear-dns-cache-flushdns/

So, how about trying to clear the DNS cache (of flash DNS cache)? It’s easy.

In Microsoft Windows, you can use the command ipconfig /flushdns to flush the DNS resolver cache.
You can also use the command ipconfig /displaydns to view the DNS resolver cache.

C:\>ipconfig /flushdns
C:\>ipconfig /displaydns

In Mac OSX, you can use the command lookupd -flushcache to flush the DNS resolver cache.
bash-2.05a$ lookupd -flushcache

If still doesn’t work, try rebooting your computer and your router!

Happy 2007 New Year!

Happy New Year, everyone!

May this year bring a lot of internet excitement – faster speeds, more downloads and more intriquing technologies!
