			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How 90s, as the name suggests, lets webmasters check if their website is stuck in the 90s. This can include checking to see whether there are still features that were primarily a part of the site in the 90&#8242;s, which have now become obsolete. You just need to enter the URL of the site and it will check to see if it has features like tables, frames, marquees, hit counter, etc, and accordingly decide what percentage of the site still follows the old rules.</p>
<p><img src="http://main.makeuseoflimited.netdna-cdn.com/dir/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/How-90s-1.png?570cd5" alt="websites stuck in the 90s" /></p>

<p>The site also has what it calls the &#8220;League of Shame&#8221; that includes a list of sites that badly need a design makeover. Overall, it&#8217;s a fun site to play around with.</p>
<p>Features</p>
<ul>
<li>Check if your site still has features that are obsolete.</li>
<li>Enter the URL to get the results. No need to register.</li>
<li>Checks if the site is using tables, frames, blinking text, guestbook, hit counter etc.</li>
<li>Has the league of shame for sites with too many obsolete features.</li>

In the end, all scores are averaged and your site is given an overall popularity rating on a 100-point scale. The final score is accompanied by text explaining how well your site is doing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are a restaurant owner, then special discounts and coupon deals could attract a lot of attention and customers to your business.
