My basic URL pleasantlifestyle.com serves as my test bed for web apps I found, or wrote myself. Some examples, which I have opened to the public would like sites like ‘fileHaven’.

To identify whether your browser is Web2.0 ready, simply go to sites like www.facebook.com and see if you can move your profile’s little windows around. If you can then you are Web2.0 ready, else continue reading :) to enable Javascript on your Browser Read more…
