I received a postcard from google

Nah, it’s just from the Google Adsense Team

They sent all their Google Adsense users a verification pin to verify that there are real people at the address given! Something about fraud and what not.
That must have been quite a mailing list!

The Google Adsense Pin number provided is just a once off to verify that you are real and alive.

Google adsense is pretty cool, and extremely easy to use.

Here is an example of a half-banner:
This Code:
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-1802553631602251";
google_ad_width = 234;
google_ad_height = 60;
google_ad_format = "234x60_as";
google_ad_type = "text_image";
google_ad_channel ="6199676621";
google_color_border = "336699";
google_color_bg = "FFFFFF";
google_color_link = "0000FF";
google_color_url = "008000";
google_color_text = "000000";
//--></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>

Produces this =>

Just paste it into your site, and you have ads. (Well, my ads in this case)

Once again, I have completed another useful work of my own

The similar previous one, vodawap, was created for me to send sms to vodacom people (ok, ok, my girlfriend) from my mobile cellphone wap.

Now, I’ve created… um… cellcwap!

If you are on CellC, you get 5 free sms’s daily to send to other Cellc users via their website (cell.co.za)

Well, I wanted to access this site from my mobile cellphone so that I can receive sms from it. I am a CellC subscriber. (Their GPRS works now, so it has everything I need now).

Now you can access their site (CellC) from your mobile cellphone to send your 5 free sms a day.

It just costs you the GPRS costs (barely a few cents) of logging on and sending your sms’s.

Here it is:

Give it a try and let me know if their are any problems.

CellC via WAP / GPRS:: sms;
This is free cellc.co.za cellc to cellc sms’s.

All that’s left is to create one for MTN now!

Vodacom4me was the easiest to do, Cell C was a little tricky, now MTN looks the worst! There is so much javascript being used on the mtn site it’s a joke.

“it’s better with 5fm”

Rubbish. What rubbish.

Thanks for the waste of time.

5fm == A joke of a radio station.

Nice waste of their money.

Just as an aside (totally off topic):

dreamhostcodes.com - dreamhost promo codes.

Dam, now google wips up a free home page / website for all it’s account holders!

pages.google.com
OR
googlepages.com

Check out mine at jddcef.googlepages.com… (everyone gets their own subdomain)

So, anyone can have a free page hosted by googlepages.com…

It’s a WYSIWYG editor, so you don’t need to know any HTML, just point-and-click.

You get 100MB of webspace.

Google really has got almost everything in the bag already.
This means, you can make something available to your friends/family pretty easily.

A few years behind Yahoo!’s Briefcase, where you can make files available across the web to your self or to friends.

Yahoo! also has photos.yahoo.com - where you can share your photos in a nice album.
All free of course.

This web page creator is still in beta in the Google Lab’s, but it’s in working condition of course

Go ahead, create your own page! Remember to link to defza.com

You need a google account of course. If you need a free google account invitiation, comment here.

Want to create an online photo tour of your vacation to Bali? An overview of the South American precipitation cycle for your science class? A shrine to your pet ferret?

Now’s your chance. We’re testing a new product that makes creating your own web pages as easy as creating a document in a word processor. Google Page Creator is a free tool that lets you create web pages right in your browser and publish them to the web with one click. There’s no software to download and no web designer to hire. The pages you create are hosted on Google servers and are available at http://yourgmailusername.googlepages.com for the world to see.

If you are on the road… with your mobile cellphone… you might just need something that requires a PC & internet connection.

Luckily your mobile cellphone has a GPRS internet connection & a web browser.

Sooo, I’ve created a WAP page that you can access when you on the road. It lists the things that I find useful for when I am on the move.

So far I’ve got mobile email, maps and za sms.

wap.defza.com

And, the same page viewed in WML:
