Entrecard

Published by mstokes1 under WebSite Reviews Edit This

My experience with Entrecard was basically a good one.  The site is user friendly, and you will find many friendly people in the forums.

While I was on satellite internet, it was easy to use entrecard.

However, since I am back on dial-up, the pages load way to slow for me to be able to ’drop’ on more than 2-4 a day. (You can read more about my experiences with internet satellite on my other blog News & Opinions )

So all in all, for ones who have DSL, Cable or Satellite Internet, Entrecard is great.

But for ones on dial-up, the slow loading pages can be a pain and cause more stress than it’s worth.

Grandparents.com

Published by mstokes1 under WebSite Reviews Edit This

One website that I have seen advertised on television, but have yet to visit until today, is Grandparents.com

No, I am not a grandparent, but this website has great ideas that anyone can use with their children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, etc.

There are all sort of indoor and outdoor activities, recipes, kids cooking, expert advice, games, a discussion forum and so much more at this site.

This is definitely a site that I will be visiting regularly to get ideas of things to do with my children.  Being I am a stay at home mom, I love new ideas for activities, especially things to do that are free or low cost.

I would recommend this site to all who have children or baby-sit children.  Check it out when you can, Grandparents.com

B+ Movie Reviews

Published by mstokes1 under Blog Reviews Edit This

Here is a blog that we all can surely appreciate - B Plus Movies .

My family and I take spells with our movie watching.  At times we may watch only a couple of movies a month, and other times we may watch a couple a week.

Regardless, it’s always so difficult to decide what to watch.  When we are at the movie store looking at the movies, the pictures on the front and the details on the back of the box can sound great and then you are extremely disappointed when it’s one of the worse movies that you have ever seen.

This blog gives reviews on B+ movies, so this can give you an idea if it’s something you want to spend your time and money on renting or purchasing.

If you are unsure of what B+ movies are, or how the rating system works, click the links at the top of the blog that says “What are B+ movies” and “Ratings Systems”

Check regularly for updates, and don’t forget to leave a comment or two while your there.

Celeb Gossiper

Published by mstokes1 under Blog Reviews Edit This

Do you like keeping up to date on Celebrities?  There is a great blog, Celeb Gossiper that keeps us up to date on all celebrities!  Movie Stars, Actors, Actresses, Music Singers, most all celebrities that you can think of.

I have discovered some things that I did not know, like I had no idea that Brad Paisley was married.  (Shame on me.. lol)  I really like his singing,  I am partial to country music.

This is truly a great blog , and I hope every one takes the time to visit, and maybe leave a comment or two. (Or three, or four, or ten…) J

And keep checking back regularly, so that you lose touch with the Celebrities (like I have done lately.. Now trying to get all caught up!)

30 Something And Searching

Published by mstokes1 under Blog Reviews Edit This

30 Something And Searching is a blog that I have seen a time or two, but never really took much time to really read through it until today.

This is a great blog.  It reminds me of a journal, it has many emotional posts.  But we can relate to many of the posts, the thoughts, the ideas.

There are definitely other categories, however.  Such as the Book Category, you must check this out.  It has some childrens books that have been banned, that really surprised me.

There are also ponderings, rantings, and Political categories.  All in all, this is a great blog , and the author seems to really put a lot of her time and heart into it.  Please check it out when you get a little spare time.

Tracy Ruckman

Published by mstokes1 under Blog Reviews Edit This

The blog author of Vacation Planning stays pretty busy as she also has three other sites that she works with.

TracyRuckman.com tells more about her and the things that she offers.  Here you will find Tips for Writers, Photos taken by Tracy, links to valuable resources for Writers, as well as you can hire Tracy to write for you or hire her for a critique.

Peace and Quiet is a great Christian blog for everyone.  Not only does she share bible verses with us, but she also helps explain the meanings of the verses, and gives us details of her life.  She shares parts of her life with us, that we can all relate to.  This has to be one of the best Christian blogs that I have seen online, and we can all learn something new from it. I recommend this site for everyone.

Pix-N-Pens brings to us; Authors, Book Reviews, Photography, among other things.  I would recommend this site to writers and to ones who enjoy reading.

One thing is for sure, Tracy spends a lot of time helping others online.  Whether it is inspiring you religiously, Assisting you with your vacation plans, Assisting you with writing resources and critique, she is one busy lady and we should applaud her for all that she does for us.
