Since MySpace is drowning in a sea of spam and no relief seems to be in sight, now would be a good time to start looking for a new online meeting place. If you want to get in on the ground floor of a social networking site that offers chat, photo albums and mp3 downloads (that’s very cool), join 3gb community www.3gb.biz.

3gb is so new in fact, their TOS reads: “This is the terms of service agreement.” OK. I can deal with that. Expect the usual bumps in the road as the platform develops. This is the best time to become part of a new community.

You don’t need to have 20 kids or 200 friends and family to figure out that buying birthday cards can get real pricey real fast. And time consuming. Well, forget that because “all life all online” is just getting better and better.

What I’m talking about today is CardsDirect’s online birthday cards. They offer a great assortment of cards (not just birthdays) at prices that are better than most store prices without the hassle of slumping out and picking a card from a disarrayed rack. Plus you can personalize the cards right online. You can even bulk up and save time and money by planning ahead and having your cards ready.

If you’re a mom, you know what a time saver this is just for birthday cards. But think about all the thank you cards you’d like to send (or knew you should have sent but didn’t have the time to get one). Mothers - for some reason - are expected to remember every holiday or otherwise important day and be there with the appropriate sentiment. What are you Super Mom now? Well, you can be with CardsDirect.

Here’s a sample card that’s one of my favorites:

OK, now you’ve saved time, made those special people happy, remembered to pick the kids up from wherever … wouldn’t some fresh-baked bread be nice?

Everything online - all the time. That’s our goal.

Here’s another opportunity to take care of your finances without stepping foot outside your house: SecureLoanConsolidation.com is an online resources for people looking for debt relief solutions. You can get all the information you need on loans right there - whether you’re searching for debt consolidation, payday and/or cash advance loans, home loans and mortgage refinancing, or if you’re just feeling the crunch of tax time.

You can even search out state-specific resources like Texas loans or city-specific like Austin loans. Could it get any easier?

I don’t think so.

It seems like there are payday loans available to every subgroup, culture and affiliation possible. So I guess it only makes sense to offer a faith-based option as well.

Christian Faith Financial is a loan matching service that offers a variety of production and solutions for Christians, with quick loans of $200 to $1500 available. I can’t personally vouch for them, but if faith is an important part of your finances, they may be worth a look.

Best of luck.

Since I never know what you people are getting yourselves into next, I thought it was a good time to branch out a little here. In the spirit, I’m offering you a tip to a California prostitution lawyer. No, not a prostitute turned lawyer. Meaning, you get yourself busted one way or another and the good folks at Stephen G. Rodriguez & Associates will do their best to help you out.

As they say, “we don’t take Criminal Law lightly.” In fact, it’s their one and only focus. If you wake up on the wrong side of the law and they will do their level best to get you through with reduced sentences or even dismissals. Of course, some of that depends on just what it was you allegedly did - but they’ll treat you like they’d want to be treated.

And isn’t that what we all want? Go ahead and bookmark the site. You never know…
