You might have heard people talking about proxy sites but not really known what they were. I thought I would post what I know about them to help you out if you have questions.

What are proxy sites?

Proxies allow you to keep your personal information and IP safe from spyware and prying eyes. Every time you log on to the internet and go to a site you are exposing your IP and personal information to prying eyes on the web. If you are interested in your personal privacy you will enjoy the free service proxy sites can provide you. Proxies can give you protection anytime.

OK, so my personal information is safe, but why else would I need to use one?

Not only can proxies protect you, but they can allow you to surf the web anonymously and access sites that your school or work might block from you. Everyone’s probably experienced a time at work where you’re bored, on break, or need to check your personal sites for important reasons only to be blocked by your school’s firewall or security software. Why should we not be able to access these sites when we need them? Well, with php proxies you can bypass these firewalls and filters. It’s possible to go indirectly to your favorite sites. You can now browse your favorite sites without being blocked while you are at work or school. You can unblock websites like Facebook, Myspace, Bebo, Friendster. We can all take the internet back from these filters and experience the web as it was meant to be: freely.

Recently CNN interviewed an owner of the free laptop website. They confirmed a website was not another scam but the real deal. Although only available to USA residents, the website does give away laptops for free, or almost.

So how does the whole “Get a Free Laptop” system work? It’s actually very simple. Once you’re at their website, you have to choose a laptop you want and fill out the e-mail address field. Next you will have an option of filling out a quick short 1 page survey. This step is optional.

Then, you will be offered many different memberships and trials, most of these are free for a week or so, with a possibility of cancellation without a fee, some offers require you to make a purchase costing a dollar or two. In order to get a free laptop you will have to complete 2 silver offers, 2 gold offers and either a) 6 platinum offers or b) Have 20 offers completed by people you refer. Please take note; you will have to do either “a” or “b”, not both.

When the required steps are completed, your laptop is on its way. Make sure you provided the correct address, PO boxes are not acceptable.

So where does the actual laptop come from? The owner of the website receives a decent amount of money from the advertiser for each offer you complete. Why does the advertiser pay so much money for it? Well, when you complete an offer, even free trials, you become a potential client for the advertiser. The whole “get a free laptop” system is a win-win-win deal for you, the website owner and the advertiser.
