Recently, I gave out Yahoo! Mash invitations (they are still on :P ) and this time I’m back with something new. This time it’s Wallop! Wallop is another Internet web 2.0 social network service by Microsoft Research. Launched somewhere back in September 2006, it is still unknown to most of the Internet population. Even I didn’t know about it, a friend invited me few days ago. :P So I’m again giving out invitations, but sadly, this time it’s a limited stock :( .

Just got an invite from Shankar! It’s really cool! Wondering what I’m talking about? It’s the new social networking place recently rolled out by Yahoo! called Yahoo! Mash.

It’s been 8 months since I first started blogging. I’m not a pro-blogger, but still I have come up with a few tips that I think will be found useful by the new bloggers. This is my first attempt in giving out tips. :) And that also with a bunch of links from some of my favorite blogs.

1. Own Domain: Your domain should be small (10-12 characters are enough) one and easy-to-remember. For more tips on choosing domain names, read Shaun’s article.

2. Good Host: If you have a self-hosted blog, then host it on a reliable host. Make sure your is a reliable one, has no downtimes and has 24/7 support. (If anyone has written a good article on importance of good web-hosting, please let me know below. I’ll add the link here.)
