			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have been asked numerous times about FTP programs. What FTP software do you use? Which one do your recommend? Is there a good free FTP package?</p>
<p>Actually, I installed Hummingbird FTP for Windows, however I use it very rarely. I use it only, if I have to transfer large files or file archives that are greater than 100 MB in size.</p>
<p>With smaller size files, I always use cPanel to upload files, software, or any other file transfer need.</p>
<p>Here are the steps I use to upload files without using FTP programs:</p>

<p>He compiled a great list of resources that can get you started without spending any money.</p>
<p>Some of them I am sure you already have heard about like Google&#8217;s Blogger and Yahoo&#8217;s 360. The list goes on with a very brief description of each, and if you like to find out more, just click on the link to the service.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d like to point however that WordPress could be far better than Google&#8217;s Blogger or Yahoo&#8217;s 360 service, simply because you own your blog site.</p>

<p>With over <a href="http://wordpress.org/download/counter/" target="_blank">1 million</a> downloads for versions 2.5 and 2.5.1 alone, I thought it was much older.</p>
<p>WordPress creators created flexibility, ease of use, and quality in the beginning, then the supporting community followed.</p>
<p>What a great success story&#8230;</p>
<p>I came to learn about it from my customer base. About a year ago, I noticed more and more hosting accounts using WordPress and asking me questions about it.</p>
<p>So, I starting learning more about it to provide better support.</p>
<p>Then, I thought of starting my blog to share experiences I have learned from supporting other site owners and promote my <a href="http://tdothost.com/blog.php" title="wordpress blog hosting and support" target="_blank">hosting service as well</a>.</p>
<p>Now, I became a fan of WordPress myself and do whatever it takes to to resolve any issue.</p>
<p>Thank you all!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The short answer to your question is, YES, I do offer SSI at tdothost.com
Personally, I always prefer to do it in PHP, since most scripts that I use are written in PHP.
However, Frontpage and Dreamweaver allows you to easily build sites using SSI and many site owners prefer using it.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Setting up a blog is becoming an easier task these days. There is a lot of information and help you can find that will help you get started.</p>
<p>Many of cpanel customers use tutorials or articles that lead them to installing wordpress using fantastico. I do however prefer using the traditional install.</p>
<p>With cPanel it is simpler than you think, because you don&#8217;t need a ftp software to do it. You can just go to your file manager desired location, click on upload and upload the files you wish. I will write about it in my next post.</p>
<p>In fact the whole process is becoming as easy as 1-2-3.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The popularity of social networking sites has always been on the rise since the late 90s.</p>
<p>Easy to use and easy access to internet also helped with their popularity.</p>
<p>Besides it&#8217;s fun to connect with people whether it is old classmates, people sharing the same interest or just learning about one another.</p>
<p>An interesting study by RapLeaf that studied more than 30 million networkers found that women on average have more friends than men.</p>
<p>Rapleaf examined the number of friends that men and women have on sites like: Bebo, Facebook, Friendster, Hi5, LiveJournal, MySpace, Flickr &#8230;</p>
<p>On average women networkers have 62 friends, men have on average 57 friends.</p>
<p>The study categorised networkers into groups:</p>
<blockquote><p>Social Networkers ( under 100 friends)<br />
Connectors (100-1,000 friends)<br />
Super Connectors (1,000-10,000 friends)<br />
Uber Connectors (10,000+ friends)</p></blockquote>
<blockquote></blockquote>
