Ares is the way to go!

I was always taught by my grandfather to be very, very careful when downloading any software to my computer. For a start – in the worse case scenario – the software could contain viruses or spyware; in the best case, said he, the software will just be rubbish.

So when, like now, I come to a point in my life where I want to change my Ares filesharing application, I know I really must be careful. I wasn’t careful once, and I downloaded Ares Destiny. Not only was the interface of this particular version of Ares largely useless but the was, unbeknownst to me, adware included in the download. Grandpa would be literally spinning in his grave.

Fortunately I did some research. This is the one and only way to ensure that you’re not going to get stung. A site called OfficialAres.com really came to my rescue and provided me with exactly the kind of version by version comparison that I needed. I might not be up on all the different versions of Ares, but when I can see the differences side by side in honest and straightforward interviews then I know I’m in a far superior position! Thanks a bunch, OfficialAres.com!



New iPhone App!! iPling

I am one of the biggest iPhone fans I know. I devour iPhone apps like some other people devour beer or cigarettes. It’s a fairly expensive habit but hey: keeps me off the streets. All this means that I really like visiting Apple’s iPhone apps store. Most of the iPhone apps are available in the apps store and it’s very rare to find one that isn’t here. Quite simply it’s free advertising for the designers.

So it was a bit of a shock to see such a gem among iPhone apps hiding away on an independent website. The culprit is iPling: the latest social networking app to find its way onto the iPhone.

What makes iPling fairly unique is that it is designed for and available only to iPhone users; what this means in real terms is that the user base of this particular social network is that it is full of people who own iPhones. Gadget geeks, Apple fanboys and girls; whatever you want to call them. This means you’ve got something in common with almost everyone there by default.

The way that iPling allows you to ‘connect’ to other users is unique among social networking tools and that certainly adds to its appeal: you can send an anonymous SMS message to those in your iPling circle. Does Facebook let you send anonymous SMS messages? Of course not!

Carbon Copy Pro Too Good to Be True

My friends has had some awesome success with the world renowned home business opportunity Wealth Masters International. He has always been a very hard worker, he perseveres with whatever he does and he’s more than willing to put the time in when it is needed. Good for him.

I did a little searching around for more information on Wealth Masters International and found something called Carbon Copy Pro. Carbon Copy Pro seemed very interesting indeed as it claimed to be a turnkey business opportunity: pay your money and sit back and enjoy the income it provides. Here was an opportunity, I though, to get the money and success my friend had got but without all that pesky hard work.

Uh huh. Too good to be true, for sure.

You see Carbon Copy Pro is not a business opportunity. It is a marketing scheme that runs off the back of the Wealth Masters International business opportunity. The two are not related apart from in this parasitic relationship. The moral of this article is that every business opportunity is hard work: the success of so many people that are involved with Wealth Masters International comes from nothing more than an excellent business opportunity, hard work and lots perseverance and patience. Carbon Copy Pro is not the answer.

Phuket bars are quite simply teeming with gorgeous women

Phuket bars play huge part in the resort’s nightlife. There are literally hundreds of bars spread about and they really start to get lively late in the evening. Phuket bars normally include an inside and an outside seating area, with the latter encroaching on the pavement and ensuring accommodation for between 20 and 30 guests.

In each of the bars you may see a number of incredibly attractive local girls. Some may genuinely be locals out to have fun in the evening. More likely is that they are encouraged by the bar owners to be there; these girls are the bait to the Western men.

The girls that spend in the evening in Phuket bars are, in many senses, experienced hustlers. Men may mistake them for prostitutes but usually this is not the case. Others mistake the girls for genuine locals that just happen to be interested in them. This is usually not the case either!

Phuket bars are great places to chill out and have lots of fun. The girls in the bars are there, mainly, to have fun too; keep them in perspective, though, and don’t start imagining that they’re something that they are not.

Finding a good Free Ares Download

I decided not too long ago that I would be changing my version of Ares pretty soon. With the act of finding a free Ares download being as easy as it is, I felt that it was silly to hang on to Ares Galaxy in the way that I had been. I shouldn’t really feel any nostalgia when it comes to filesharing software, I thought.

I’m really pleased with the choice that I made in the end. Definitely the right decision. I ultimately went with Ares Ultra which I found fitted my needs perfectly. This free Ares download is so much better than my older version that I just wish I’d made the decision to swap much earlier.

Finding the free Ares download that I wanted was made much easier with the help of OfficialAres.com. Not only is the information there truly interesting, it is also incredibly helpful for new and experienced users alike. What help me most – and I think probably the most useful bit of the site – was the comparison of different free Ares download options. These opinions are knowledgeable, honest and forthright, which is just what I needed to help me make my choice. The number free Ares download versions that are available are enough to confuse even the most hardened filesharing geek!

Free iPhone Music is a Distant Dream

Choosing a service from which to make your iPhone music downloads may at first seem confusing but can come down to just a few critical areas.

First and foremost you must decide whether you’re wanting to go down the free or paid-for music route. There is also a middle ground – ad-supported music downloading – but that is in its relative infancy and the selection just isn’t great.

Free music downloads are a tricky problem. Some people consider that they’re just not morally right; still others think that the risk of the files being infected with viruses or spyware is simply to great to warrant the risk. Others swear by this method as it is free and the variety of iPhone music available is greater than by any other means.

Paid for downloads have the advantage of being legal but, of course, they cost real money. There are options that may get you around this, though.

Some services offer unlimited iPhone music downloads for a set monthly fee. The only issue with these services is that the choice from their catalogue of iPhone music is nowhere near as comprehensive as that offered by services that charge per track downloaded (like, say, iTunes).

The choice is yours!

The mystery of Salvia

Salvia has been making the news a lot in recent times, partly because it has become more popular with young men and partly because there is a move in from politicians to outlaw it. Ironically the well publicized moves by politicians have brought great media coverage which, in turn, have brought Salvia into public view in a way that would not have happened had everyone ignored it. There are enough politicians on the war path now that a Federal ban seems inevitable, but until then it’s entirely legal in most states and you’re entitled to smoke as much as you want.

The reason behind Salvia’s relative anonymity is a bit of a mystery. This doesn’t mean it hasn’t been used for its hallucinogenic properties, though, as the native Mazatec tribe in Mexico will tell you: they’ve been using it for many years as an aid to spiritual healing. The first recorded use of the drug came in 1939, though it is likely that it had been used regularly well before this.

It appeared in the media very occasionally indeed, just being mentioned as a footnote in a paper on drug use in the 70s. It was not until a British documentary in 1998 picked on Salvia that it become widely known.

Home Based Business Means Independence

A home business is something that a lot of people dream about but few manage to make a reality. Yet it is something that is achievable by us all; hard work and dedication are the seeds to its success.

Starting – and making successful – a home based business offers an answer to all those dreams: first class travel, vacations in exotic places, nice car and a nice house in a nice area, and an excellent college education for your children.

But it isn’t these dreams that should be the master of all you do. They should not be the reason for you starting or continuing to work on your home based business and your goals should be something more closely related to your business rather than what you want – emotionally or materially – out of life. The dreams that you eventually succeed in achieving are a nice corollary to the success of your home based business.

iPhone Accessories is a Giant Industry

I like to listen to music on my iPhone. It’s essentially a top of the range iPod (although to call it that diminishes the part it plays in my life) and it really does the job very well indeed. I listen through headphones and these are the most import of all the iPhone accessories that I own.

The best headset I have found are from Bose who are renowned for their brilliant products: you can’t go wrong. Being able to listen to your music with the finest headphones is something of a pleasure to any discerning music lover. These are essential among iPhone accessories. I bought a friend some Bose headphones for her birthday: my friend deserves the best. I bought her the best in audio equipment. These headphones are wireless so she could take them with her on all her travels

Another absolutely fantastic gem of the iPhone accessories range is the iPhone travel pillow. This nifty item allows me to sleep with my headphones in without giving myself ear problems. This is invaluable on long trips – especially on airplanes – when I rely on my music to block out the noise of those I’m traveling with.

I’d still love my iPhone with the wonderful range of iPhone accessories that are available; they do help heighten my pleasure, though.

Officialares best to download Ares

I make websites for a living. I tell this not to boast (or to garner your pity) but to set the scene for what I am about to say: OfficialAres.com is a really great site.

I’m an avid file sharer and I use Ares P2P filesharing software a fair bit. I find myself at the Official Ares site more often than not if I want to download Ares in one of its many forms. The reviews there help someone like me – with extensive experience in filesharing – come to a reasoned conclusion. For someone with little or no experience in filesharing I suspect these comparison they are essential reading before making the first attempt to download Ares.

The FAQs cover a lot of questions both about how to download Ares and how to set it up once it’s on your computer. Common problems encountered both during the download and usage phases are discussed along with their problems. Anyone who tries to download Ares the first time should have no problem find a solution to any problems they encounter.

All in all Official Ares is a great resource that is worth returning to again and again, even for a seasoned ‘pro’ like me!
