I saw earlier on a message board about a guy looking to review his site and he had a lot of content and sections of stuff and he was trying to run a search engine. I was wondering if you could tell me what got all that content for him (because i have a lot of broad categories that i would like to just have an easy way for it to be created) and where can i get one?

I have a number of types of content on my site, including a search engine and web directory... The directory uses the Open Directory Project database and you can sign-up for it at http://www.homepagetools.com/opendirectory. The search engine is thru http://www.everyone.net who also offers free e-mail and message forums. My site is http://www.alexiacafe.com, or http://www.alexiacafe.net is you'd like to see them in action. :)

I noticed on Mandrake's site that he had one of those iSydicate type deals going on, and I'd like to ask why would you want to clutter up a page with that? I mean if I wanted news, I'd go to a news website like CNN or c|Net. IMHO a website is for original content, not stuff ported from another site.

That's my $0.02

It's actually thru SubPortal, as is a couple of other things I offer.

Many sites offer little news briefs such as these... Just something there for the person who's in a hurry and hasn't had a chance to catch up on things lately. I.E., I offer free e-mail thru the site, and I know I at least will often read some of the articles when I'm in there checking my mailboxes. Same thing with the stock ticker and weather box. Quite a few of the features I have, I use frequently as well as the guy I work with who also uses my e-mail. So if we find them useful, I'm sure there's others that will too. :)
