I am glad that I am one of the many people who love to shop online. Not only because it is time saving and convenient, you help the environment a little too.
Using data supplied by Buy.com, Internet Superstore, and also according to their previous studies, the Carnegie Mellon University’s Green Design Institute had come up with an interesting finding about how buying through buy.com can reduce carbon dioxide emission. To summarize the Green Study finding, when people buy things at the conventional retail store, many would drive to the store. Thus resulting in more carbon dioxide emission.

Whereas, buying things through buy.com takes 35 percent less energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. This is due to the rather systematic and streamlined route to buyers’ homes using a energy efficient delivery truck.

Ever since I started blogging in 2003 ( I have a personal blog) there have been more and more blog popping up every day. Some people have more than 10 blogs that they handle every day or week. (Don’t ask me how they do it because I too am as curious). So much so we get a vast variety of information from blogs. You can find topics like finding Mesothelioma lawyers, to how to pop your zits the right way. The internet world has sure become a lot more interesting with the existence of blogs.
If you are like me who likes to browse blogs, either for pleasure reading or just to spread your own website links, you may want to try jengah.com. A website that allows you to browse from blog to blog automatically. You will be stay in a blog for a few seconds – roughly about 110 seconds- then you will taken to another random blog. If you like what you read and would like to stay longer you can choose to pause. Browse back to previous blog or forward it to the next one.
I like the site, so just spreading the word about it.
