In desperate need of blog traffic (sigh) I realized that I still have 3 invites for Wuala. Post a comment on this post (remember to use your real e-mail) and I'll send an invite your way.

Why? They're all big scams designed to lure foolish teenagers by promising "a thousand free ringtones" and having some tiny print at the footer of the page telling them that it costs 10 euros a month.
This Finnish television show (link in Finnish) investigated this. Here's a small translated excerpt from the article:
13 year old Amanda Kujo's cell phone rang last month. A text message promised a free ringtone. When ordering the "free product", she actually subscribed to paid phone entertainment, even though the text message didn't tell this.
This is even worse. Marketing their products with text messages is just evil.
The article specifically mentions the three companies midway through. Unless you're some evil prick that wants to monetize his site in any way possible, please follow my advice.
I liked AdSense when it wasn't full of junk.
This thing is pretty cool, although I hate Python. The indentation makes me crazy.
And Notepad++ insisting to use tabs instead of spaces didn't exactly help.
I wish this thing would use Ruby or PHP instead.
I got an Twitter account. I prefer Jaiku (where I've had an account for months now), but hey, Twitter seems to be for the cool kids.
