McAfee Antivirus product, VirusScan is available for free download. Though they claim to have given $10 off on original price of $39.99 and made it available for $29.99 - but you can get it for completely free. You may also get firewall protection and spyware protection in the same software bundle. You can get this free download of McAfee software in few simple steps below, please let me mention that this offer can expire anytime soon.

• Follow this link: http://us.mcafee.com/root/campaign.asp?cid=53347
• Selecing the product from McAfee homepage offers you the product with $10 discount for $29.99 and the discount coupon of $39.99 below cannot be applied because it’s more than the actual sale price. So simply follow the link given above. It’s not my affiliate link and only this link is seems to be working). You shall see the shopping cart like the one below.

• Now enter promotional code VSPPROMOCF in the promo code box below the cart.

I am not sure for how long it would work, but if it stops working and I come across any other promotion, I would update you.

Google PR updates Jan 2009 / Dec 2008 seems to be have taken place on 31st December 2008 or 1st January 2009. Well, it’s a good news for my newly started blog that have gone up from PR0-PR1 to PR3-PR4 now. But it’s not very good news for this blog. It’s home page came down from PR3 to PR2, and surprisingly the internal pages of the blog still have PR5, PR3 like higher PRs. I could not understand this logic where the homepage has less PR but internal pages are highly valued in terms of PR. Seems like it’s a glitch and I might see change in PR again. (In between, one of my blog lost PR for 2 days, and got it back in couple of days)

Anyways, it’s 1st Jan and it’s holiday here. So I need to carry on with my planned tour to London. You would soon see the updates of my tour on my travel tips blog.

As Google PR update is very important news for every webmaster, I thought I should update you on it.

Wish you all a very happy and prosperous new year 2009!

I have a tip to share with you that I learned from my own experience. This is a secret that I used while searching for a job in UK. What happens is most of the UK consultants prefer to talk to candidates that are available in UK, but when you have received your HSMP approval, the candidates become pretty anxious to search for the job. Keeping in mind, that UK consultants won’t prefer to talk to International candidates on phone, it’s a huge hurdle in front of potentially good candidates who are ready to fly and just waiting to see right opportunities across or use the time in hand while they prepare to fly.

I would suggest you should -

1. Register online to major job search portals in UK like jobserve.com, cwjobs.co.uk, reed.co.uk

2. Your resume should be updated with your UK address (where you gonna live after landing in UK) and your UK phone number

Now you must be thinking what could you do with UK phone number when you are abroad? The benefit is depending on your experience and resume, UK job consultants can start giving you calls and that gets you some job leads and helps you to start communication with consultants and also build up your confidence.

3. Now your resume hows like you are living in UK already, so by the time all the process initiates, you are closer to flying down to UK and saves the waiting time for job process during you wait abroad to fly to UK.

Here is Skype Online Number comes to your rescue

When you want to have a UK phone number, and get in touch with consultants confidently, Skype Online Phone Number would help you to establish a UK phone number which can be redirected to your local phone number / mobile number in your country. For example: India, Pakistan, Srilanka, Japan, Korea etc.

This helped me a lot to establish connections with UK consultants much before I land here, and I contacted them back again when I really landed up and the process went quickly ahead as I saved on the time of initial communication. Skype Online Number charged me like $6 every month + incoming Skype call cost from UK to India. But that worth the investment while I was ready to spend GBP 2000 for first initial settlement cost.

How Skype Online Phone number can help your business abroad?

UK Online Phone Number can also help your business abroad if your customers are global, majorly in UK and US. You can buy these phone numbers and set them up on your website or letter heads. These phone number again can be redirected to your local phone numbers, establishing the smooth communication between you and your potential client.

I would suggest you not to go with 070 numbers in UK as they are mostly used by online scammers and that might affect you as well.

Wish you all happy Christmas, happy holidays and a prosperous new year!! This year has been an eventful year for me, and I think I have taken many important decisions this year. Long story short, I have many more posts to write about it.

I could not write you in Christmas time for obvious reason, it was busy time with family and friends. But be sure, my wishes were always with you.

All my holidays are busy in shopping essential stuff needed to setup my new home in UK and taking the best benefit of Boxing day sale. I am writing all of you today, as I am not sure how busy I would be on last day of this year and first day of new year too. I would try to come online and publish some blog posts, but if not - excuse me please.

Wish you all happy new year in advance and enjoy these holidays!

Could you ever imagined that your childhood hobby could make you thousands of grands? Just by childhood enthusiasm of collecting autographs of popular personalities could have been paying pension for your lifetime. Ha! Interesting discussion, hell ya!

This is one of the biggest return on investment without much investment you would ever see. Collecting autographs since childhood, or even trading them in your young age, and buying them when you grow up and later selling them for few grands is not a bad decision. Those autographs you collected as a hobby, can now become a money making machine. At least that’s what you would see at Nate D Sander’s website. My brain thinks about only money, that’s why I could only get impressed by the figures against each autograph or even a small autographed 8×10 frame. But no way, I would mean to forget the efforts behind building this up to a level.

Nate has started this in 1986 as an individual’s company and initially dealt with Hollywood autographs and signed photos. Now the same company is into multi-million dollar business by buying and selling autographs, collectible items, fine art. It’s making me believe that every other little special thing around me might make me few grands after 30-40 years when I would be beyond an age of being able to work. Could you imagine that civil war letters could bring you $800-850, when they were not of really that monitory value (of course by no means you can value them, they are invaluable that way) when they were bring written.

Nate Sanders has really done a good job in auctioning these items that they seem to have become respected and well known source of collectibles. You just name it, and they have collectible items for sports, photography, books, art, politics, entertainment - all.

Alright, so now your time to get impressed is over. Let your brains start working - and figure out if you have collected any signed photographs, autographs or Sports Memorabilia. I am not sure if all avenues we know to do the independent selling, would really work for us. Instead, I would suggest to approach such companies like Nate Sanders’ and sell our belongings to them for small commission and let them handle the rest.

I am sure some of you would definitely make most of this opportunity and make few bucks. Let other’s also know your casestudy or simply email me through contact page about how your hobby turned out to be in cash cow.
