I recently made a number of purchases from various sellers on the same day through the Etsy marketplace, which uses PayPal as its checkout solution. Nine times out of 10 I was presented with PayPal’s “new” checkout process, and once with the “old.” A split test test or a mistake, I’m not sure – though Etsy is large enough that PayPal might conduct a test through it.
Of course, I always have my screenshot application open, so I captured a screenshot of both checkout options so we can study PayPal’s radical checkout redesign. (Please note that Shipping Address was already collected in a previous step on the Etsy website, these shots deal only with making payment).

Managing Pop-Ups in Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome from Practical eCommerce

Managing Pop-Ups in Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome | Practical eCommerce
Ecommerce professionals spend many hours each day online. They monitor their businesses, check email, market products, post to social media sites, watch the competition, or otherwise do any one of a hundred business-related activities.
Into the midst of this online experience come pop-ups—ads, forms, controls, whatever. Perhaps, most of the time, you don’t want pop-ups interrupting your browsing. But other times, you do. For example, if you are looking at prices or specifications on a competitor’s site, the “compare products” feature probably opens in a pop-up window. Some ecommerce platforms also use pop-ups to display reports or other information. And, more specifically, if you use PayPal to process online orders, you must allow pop-ups for at least the PayPal domain.
In this article, I will describe how to find and use the pop-up manager in three popular web browsers: Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (IE) 9, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrom…READ ON..
Rose Antique Tools old tools and history
Posted by: | CommentsBeing a retro-Geek I am always in search of things that are or were cutting edge technology, meaning of course that digging through piles of rusty tools is heaven. Frequently I run across items that I know were hi-tech in their day, ie my 1895 draw knife with folding wooden handles. Even if I don’t know what the things are I frequently must have them, then when I find they have no retail value I change from being a dealer to being a collector (never a hoarder).
One of the sites that has helped greatly in identifying these finds is Rose Tools. She has excellent descriptions and photographs, you may register free without listing a credit card, and she has a link to educational information on antique tools. You may also be tempted by the enormous number of antique tools she has listed for sale. Try this site if you have any interest in tools, antiques, or visit estate and yard sales, you may be walking right past a gold mine in retro-Geek items.
From Rose Antique Tools old tools and history.

This site is dedicated to the memory of my sister Karen who always encouraged me to do the things that I really wanted no matter what others may think, and to a very special friend of mine John who loved antique tools very much. I miss them both dearly.
I would also like to say a very special thank you, to every man and woman in our military forces, who are risking their lives every day to keep us here at home safe and free.
