I’ve just gotten myself a new PC (almost), just replaced many of the existing internal hardware for newer types. Now I feel like my PC is running on turbo again. I never get the best and greatest hardware there is; just as long as the specs are okay, its okay with me. 🙂 I know… Read More »
You might have noticed an increase in the number of bots trawling the Web these days. Some are good, some are not. Good bots obey the robots.txt file, but unfortunately most bad bots don’t.
