Comments on Safer Shopping On Line-Tips Just in Time for Our Holiday Shopping



Great info. I'm glad the AARP is involved in safe online shopping now, as this category tends to be the most wary of online shopping. This can help boost shopping in general and at the same time, keep people from being "had".

I personally tend to be more trusting of brick-and-mortar stores so I can see the point there.

Thanks a bunch for posting this.

not on topic here i know but i have a few movable type blogs and i'm getting a little fed up of some of the downsides of using it.I cant seem to get the proper url structure that is available with WP without going in manually each time. Another thing is trying to schedule posts which is a real pain. WYSIWYG is a lot less buggy in WP but then on the upside the templates are a liitle easier to edit with Movable Type. Are there any other advantages to movable type blogs over say blogger or wordpress that I might be missing? Oh and Movable Type needs more plugins! - sorry, thats reads a bit like a rant now that I Look over it
