Visa Buxx = Safe Teen Credit Card
Posted on February 12, 2001 - Filed Under Personal Finance | 4 Comments
The Bottom Line It’s not a credit card, but it plays one on TV (or at the mall, or online, or wherever).
The Visa Buxx card was designed for parents to help their teens control spending. Essentially it is a secured Visa card with a few additional (optional) parental controls.
What Is A Visa Buxx Card?
A Visa Buxx card looks and acts just like a Visa card (and is accepted everywhere Visa is). However, instead of having a credit line, the Visa Buxx…

The Bottom Line This installment will cover the standard three-character domain names that are familiar to most web-surfers.
Standard (or generic) Top Level Domains are both the most common and the most well-known. There are seven gTLDs: .com, .net, .org, .edu, .gov, .mil and .int. Only the first three are truly generic although all seven three-character domains are usually lumped together under the gTLD acronym.

Posted on February 5, 2001 - Filed Under GPT PTR PTC | Leave a Comment
I joined Clickdough December 3, 2000. Only they weren’t Clickdough then, they had joined forces with About.com and changed their name to MoveAbout. I used the service for 45 hours, 25 minute, 29 seconds during the month of December. Then, January 1st they’re gone, saying they’ll be back on January 15th. On January 15th even the page saying they’ll be back is gone. Then, on February 1st, they’re suddenly back as ClickDough once again. Oh, and my total pay for…

Part of the Domain Registrars Series - Previous in series Next in series
When I first heard about PSI Web Domains (aka web-domains.com) I wasn’t sure why anyone would pay $66.50 for a 2-year domain registration when so many cheaper options were available.
