Hi everyone,
There's a bunch of sites and stuff that we visit and use on a regular basis.
Perhaps it's time for us to share a few of them.
Personal World Clock -- Set it up to work out the times in the cities you're
interested in. The current settings may give you a hint of where our interests
are.
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/personalapplet.html?cities=5,22,28,47,64,72,103,838,105,137,145,165,179,944,196,220
Fixed Time World Clock -- we used to use this one
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html
InfoSpace Reverse LookUp - Enter the phone number of a USA prospect to see if it
matches who seems to own that number. Area Code Look-Up is on the same
page...make sure they're at least in the right state.
http://www.infospace.com/info/wp/reverse.htm
InfoSpace White Pages - Search for the phone number of a prospect in the USA.
http://www.infospace.com/info/wp/index.htm?ver=12214
UK Phone Book - Finding nubers in the UK was really hard. It's as though there
are different directories or something.
http://www.ukphonebook.com
Google Search - The worlds most popular search engine. A check earlier today of
our website stats showed that most search engine geenrated visits came from
Google.
http://www.google.com/search
Google Image Search - http://images.google.com
Google Catalog Search - Search catalogs for your terms
http://catalog.google.com
White Pages Search (Australia) - http://www.whitepages.com.au
Morinda Countries - I use this link when I want to check if we have a physical
presence (ie. warehouse, office, live staff) in a country.
http://www.tahitiannoni.com/home/global/menu.htm
TEC Countries - If we don't have a physical presence in a country, I check to
see if it is on the TEC list. Tropical Express Company will be closed soon and
TNI Access will take over.
http://www.tropical-express.com/cgi-bin/mhtmt/countries.html
BetterWHOIS - This is one site I do use regularly. Anytime I want to know who
owns a site, I go to http://www.betterwhois.com
Sorry, I'll have to finish there. It's after midnight and is time for bed.
