Taking the WWW world wide
p2pnet.net News:- When it comes to communications in parts of the world where a 386, monochrome and unreliable dial-up are where it’s at and electrical power comes from a generator, low-tech is definitely good.
Thus, “Our immediate goal is to build software that enables Internet access in the poorest countries and most remote regions of the world,” says Aidworld.
“You may notice that this website is very simple. This ensures that as many people as possible can view our site.”
That’s why it’s come up with non-glitz loband.
“With appropriate filtering, the information on the Internet can be accessed over poor connections,” says Aidworld.
“If reduced to its core text, even the poorest connections can deliver Internet information faster than the human eye can read. The impact of this for remote and impoverished areas is profound.”

And coming up are aidmail, aidforum and aidware.
Stay tuned.

that’s what i mean. you shouldn’t have to need ads. the internet was meant to be free, and ad-free. just as cable tv was supposed to stay ad-free like it was even as far back as 20 years ago.
don’t worry, your ads are safe with me. *click-click*

After pointing out in a previous post that the Google ads on this site were usually for P2P scams, I noticed that 2 days later the Google ads all got removed. And I wondered, what was the reason?
