Technique for Pushing Body Text up the HTML code Ladder...
I hired a SEO company to optimize my site. They did very well, but one I wanted to know about one of the techiques that they used to get the body text closer to the top of the HTML.
What is a grabber?
I'm trying very hard to get things set up on my site so the bad bots can't harvest things and so people can't steal my work.
Suggestions on guest-book type script?
Now, I'd like to make an automated client feedback page, using guestbook software. Is this something a novice could do? Any suggestions on scripts? I wouldn't want to post email addresses.

Streaming with Windows Media Services and ASP.NET
I love my music. Like many people these days, I have ripped my entire CD collection to MP3 and I buy all my music online. I am also pretty impatient. I never jumped on the 256MB MP3 player bandwagon because I couldn't figure out what songs I couldn't live without. Now things have changed. I use a 30GB MP3 player but I am running out of room. What's a music addict to do? I realized that since I am pretty connected to the Internet these days, all I should need to do is expose my music collection on an external server and stream them to wherever I am. No need to pick and choose — every album would be at my finger tips.
Luckily, Windows Server 2003 has come to the rescue in the form of Windows Media Services. Included in Windows Server 2003 licensing (Standard and above) is the use of Media Streaming. In this article, I show you how to get started streaming your music or video over the Internet with Windows Streaming Services and ASP.NET.

Combine Web and Windows Services to Run Your ASP.NET Code at Scheduled Intervals
Suppose you've written a great n-tier application in ASP.NET and you want to extend it to perform scheduled tasks, such as sending e-mail to selected users in the database every two hours, or regularly analyzing the data in the ASP.NET cache for application health monitoring. You don't want to throw away your object model from your ASP.NET application or create too many dependencies between a separate scheduler and the ASP.NET application, so how can you avoid this but still have these apps work together?
In .NET Framework-based applications, timers are frequently used to perform activities at scheduled intervals, so using one would seem to be an appropriate solution. You could start a timer from the Application_Start handler in Global.asax to run your scheduled tasks. Unfortunately, this solution is not robust through application domain, process, or system restarts because a request must be made to the application to start the timer. ASP.NET is a passive programming paradigm that only responds to HTTP requests, so a process or user input must call the code for it to run.

Globalizing ASP.NET Applications With Non-Standard Languages
Have you ever wanted to use a language, character set or encoding type not inherently supported in the .NET Framework in your web applications? Perhaps you've got a comical interest to display your content in Pig Latin, Ewok, GeekSpeak, or some unique dialect you and your friends developed between each other. Or, maybe you've got a more legitimate business problem to solve, like displaying content for a certain race of people whose native tongue isn't recognized by the International Standards Organization (ISO). If you've ever been in any of the above situations, you'll want to read on. In this article, I'm going to show you how to easily extend the current functionality of the .NET Framework to support rare, uncommon or even completely new languages for use in your ASP.NET projects.
I came across a problem recently when I wanted to have certain sections of my company's Web site display information in languages other than English. Doing so provides a rich level of customer service and allows us to interact with people who might not use the Internet otherwise for information, or prefer to receive information in a manner more convenient to them.

Build Printable ASP.NET Pages
Provide users with a variety of printing capabilities in your ASP.NET Web applications.
Users should be able to print order confirmations, invoices, and the like directly from your Web application. And no, the old Shift + Print Screen approach from the 3270 mainframe emulation screen days won't cut it, for the same reason that the JavaScript window.print() command often won't, even though it triggers the operating system's Print dialog with minimal code:
