Wow, that blog design is beautiful. Anyways, I'd love to switch to DDG, but too often it tells me "No more results. Try Google.", and almost every time a subsequent search on Google provides me with many more (relevant) links for the same q

I'd like an API that had a function similar to this: make_this_many_dollars_magically_appear_in_my_bank_account(1000000000);

Wow, I didn't realize it looked so bad. I thought it was easy to see what the program was about, how to download it, etc, and looked clean, but I guess not. I appreciate the feedback, and I'll definitely be working out a redesign of the sit

From your home page, the link to "our products" doesn't work, it stays on the same page. So I'll never know what products you have! I can see where that might be confusing. Thanks for pointing that out -- a separate page probably would be

Better than expected. Out of around 35 sales, 3 came from TrialPay, pulling in $75 in revenue. That's $14 less than if my four customers didn't use TrialPay, but I could've made the MAP (Minimum Acceptable Payout) higher if I was really tha
