Getting Romantic

I'll freely admit that I'm a big fan of romance and everything to do with it! I just love it!

I've found a great new blog called Romance For Everyone that contains lots of information and advice about everything related to romance. They've got love letters, tips for break-ups, dating tips, stories and a plethora of romantic ideas for all the Romeos and Juliets of the world.

What I love about the site is the abundance of romantic love letters and stories that the site has. Some of the ones that I read brought a tear to my eye and you could probably make a movie from most of them. I wonder where they all came from?

All the different areas of the site are easily organized via a category listing on the left sidebar which makes finding the topic that you're after nice and easy.

It's definitley a site to check out if you're into romance!!

Free Paris

With Paris Hilton being released from jail, there's a lot of hype and media frenzy regarding how she's claimed to be a "changed woman" and is going to devote herself to different causes.

Whatever.

She was only in jail for something like two weeks and the first few days of that were spent crying in a little ball in her cell. Two weeks is not enough to change your life when as soon as you get out you're having million dollar interviews and expensive parties at nightclubs.

I'll admit that it's great PR if you want to change your ways - go to jail, come out reformed and devote yourself to charity is a pretty good way to makeover your public image quickly. However, until she's actually done what she's promising to do and has devoted some of her time to actually helping the people that she's saying she is going to help, I'm not convinced.

Everybody knows that as soon as she got out the slammer she probably went and got drunk at some club.

I don't buy the reform.

If Paris wants to prove me wrong by helping a few people and actually doing some good on this earth rather than being cheap topics for magazines and bloggers, she's more than welcome and I'll happily publish a retraction here!

Funny T-Shirts

I'm a big fan of funny t-shirts and there's nothing that I like better than searching the web for a funny tshirt and purchasing it. I think I probably have about 50 humorous t-shirts in my closet that are on a rotation of being worn.

The latest site that I've come across is Tchirts.com that is latino inspired and has lots of cool spanglish on their shirts. Hilarious!

I particularly like this one:


They've got a wide variety of shirts for men and women so it's no surprise that they dominate the latino t-shirt market on the web. They've got lots of different categories too like music and urban so you're bound to find something that you like. They also offer a subscription service where you can receive discounts on their shirts too.

Looks like I've found a new place to buy funny t-shirts!!

Useful Japanese

I know that many of my readers are currently in Japan or looking to travel to Japan soon so I thought that I'd start compiling some useful Japanese phrases that will see you on your way. To start, let's have a nice little basic sentence that will help you in a lot of situations:

Intanetto ni akusesu suru hitsuyo ga arimasu

Translation: I need internet access!!

It's perhaps one of the most essential phrases that world travelling bloggers need in Japan and one that you'll definitely find useful. Prices at internet cafes in Japan start at around $1 for ten minutes and that usually includes a free drink bar and use of a manga library.

The best part about the cafes is the service! You can order food and each cubicle usually has a Playstation or Xbox too so you can simply call up and order a game to be delivered! Pretty awesome for the gamers!

Zombie Boy

The undead say it best in this great video that I found. Cutting straight to the point, this little boy sums up all the action in one sentence better than anyone else:

He couldn't have said it better if it was scripted! His parents must be so proud!

Find A Friend

Aah, online relationships! You hear about them and you read about them, but have you ever had one?

I spend a lot of time online and while I've received many offers for an online relationship, I've never had the courage to get out there and follow it through. I think the trouble stems from being unable to find the right type of people!

I've chatted to quite a few people online that I'd be interested in having a relationship with. I actually had one chat session that lasted six hours! Unfortunately, Mr X then became quite busy with his work and was always "offline" and we rarely chatted again.

If you're into online relationships, I've found a new site called FriendFinder that makes it really easy to start an online relationship.

You can browse through the site based on location or your personal preferences and the majority of profiles have photos that make it really easy to find "your type". The amount of people on there is amazing! There are millions!

I've already been using it for a little while and the results have been fantastic. I've met lots of cool new people and have already formed a few online relationships that I'm hoping will blossom into something special. Love is in the air!

Blog Contests

There are so many blog contests being run these days that are lots of opportunities to win cash and money online.

Many of these competitions involve just leaving a comment or writing a review for the chance to win flatscreen monitors, LCD screens and even cold hard cash!

What I love about these blog contests is how easy they are to enter! You don't have to be an expert or a even lucky. You just have to do a simple entry and then sit back and wait. As there are so many blog contests to enter these days, it's almost certain that with a bit of time you'll win one.

Is it guaranteed? No. Is there a good chance that you'll win eventually? Yes!

One of the best blog contests that I found involved leaving a comment on the person's site for a chance to win a new laptop. That's pretty awesome and they received over 100 entries!! Imagine! Just leaving a comment and winning a laptop! Gotta love blog contests!

Easy Weight Loss

If you're like me then you're probably interested in losing a little weight, right? Everybody has a few pounds to shed and the newest product on the market is hoodia.

I've found a new weight loss blog that covers hoodia and it's benefits in a lot of detail.

According to the blog, hoodia curbs your appetite and some people think that it's even an aphrodisiac!

Hoodia has been seen on Oprah, 60 Minutes and the Today Show. The new blog covers dieting, side effects, has weight loss diaries, patents, before and after weight loss pictures, history and discusses how it works on the hypothamalus gland to reduce appetite.

Research has shown that it can reduce your appetite and eating by 40-60% which is quite a lot and should make weight loss pretty easy. The blog is only a few months old but already has lots of info so check it out and start losing weight today!

Dramatic Chipmunk T-shirt

I can't believe the things that get made sometimes. Just a few days after blogging about the dramatic chipmunk video that put DeNiro to shame, one company has gone out and made a T-shirt with the little critter's face on it!

It's quite funny and cute but I don't know if I'd buy it myself. I mean seriously...maybe I could handle a T-shirt with Alvin, Simon or Theodore on it but this little critter just isn't my style.

It's amazing how quickly you can buy a T-shirt these days. It seems like just hours after any news breaks or a video is made, you can buy a T-shirt about it. Of course, the problem is that a lot of the news and videos die as quickly as they are made which makes the purchase of a T-shirt a bad investment.

Would you still be wearing a 'Star Wars kid' T-shirt these days? I know I wouldn't!

As soon as Paris Hilton got sent to jail, there were the "Free Paris" t-shirts on the internet, so I really have to guess that as soon as she's released we're going to see a T-shirt regarding her release. It'll be interesting to see how this develops!!

0-200 in 6 seconds

Bob was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was
really pissed.
I'll admit that it's not too hard to find a joke that makes me laugh but this one made me laugh so hard that my stomach hurt!! As I also want something that quickly goes from 0-200, I can related to it!! Haha!

Bob was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was
really pissed.

She told him "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the
driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE !!"

The next morning he got up early and left for work. When his wife woke
up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box
gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway.

Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway, brought
the box back in the house.

She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale.

Bob has been missing since Friday.

Funny five second video

What do you get when you cross the acting ability of Pacino and Brando with the patented looks of Zoolander? Perhaps the funniest video of a prairie dog that you'll ever see!

This five second video has labeled the "funniest five second video ever" and I'm inclined to agree:

Isn't that just amazing! I hope he gets an agent quick!

Next think you know the little critter will go all "hollywood" and sell out. Get ready to see that face popping up in commercials and movies and don't be surprised if you happen to find the debut album in your local record store.

It's amazing that something small and with the brain of a peanut can act so much better than Keanu Reeves. Whoah.

Would you survive?

Imagine that you were stuck in an unknown city with no money, no food and no resources! What would you do? It’s quite a scary situation to be in and I think that most of us never have or never will be in that situation but life is so unexpected that you never know when it could happen!

Would you be ready?

Would you be prepared?

Would you survive?

Burn Notice is a new TV series on the USA network that teaches you exactly how to deal with this situation. Starting June 28th, Michael Weston – a CIA operative – will show us exactly how he deals with the situation and how he survives! Sounds like “must-see-TV” to me!

So what would I do if I placed in a situation like that? Well, I’ve been in quite a few “strange” cities in my time and probably the first thing that I’d do would be to go to the local tourist office and find the location of the nearest 5-star hotel. Of course, without money it would be impossible to stay there, but I’d go there simply to use their bathroom in the luxury that I’m accustomed to. Next, I’d probably have a good sleep on their lounges before I started thinking about food.

Free food is actually not that hard to come by in most cities, all it really involves is a little “know-how” and a few simple techniques.

But I don’t want to give them away until I’ve seen the USA Network's Burn Notice and can see which technique is better!

Stay tuned!

AGLOCO

AGLOCO has been quite popular since the AGLOCO viewbar was released. AGLOCO have admitted that they're not going to pay AGLOCO members for quite some time. The AGLOCO non-payment is discussed in detail on many AGLOCO hating sites. They're right!

Make money? Yes, you can make money fast online through lots of make money techniques that are discussed in-depth at Make Money. It's the best way to make money!

The Right Now Meme

I was once again tagged in another Meme and this one is the "tomorrow meme" where you write the top5 things that you're planning on doing tomorrow and why you're going to do them. Sounds like a bit of fun, so here we go:

1. Go to the 100yen store - no great reason to go there except that it's time to do some cleaning and it's cheapest place in the world to get all the cleaning supplies that you need! Everything in the place is 100yen (US$1) and I know a great shop that has five floors of it!!

2. Watch the 'Minority Report' DVD - I used to be quite a big fan of Tom Cruise before he went kinda crazy but I never got around to seeing this movie. A friend of mine let me borrow it, so I'm looking forward to watching it and seeing some pre-crazy Tom Cruise action.

3. Write in my blog - I'm doing it now and I'll be doing it tomorrow. It's part of my daily routine these days.

4. Book a table at a restaurant - A friend of mine is having a bit of a farewell party this Saturday, so we're going to look for a good restaurant and book it. I think I know where we'll go and it can get pretty busy so it's best to book!

5. Drink coffee -And lots of it! It's the only thing that gets me through the day!

PayPerPost Gets $7million in Funding

PayPerPost, the internet startup that pays you to post, has received an extra $7million in funding and is telling the world about it.

I’ve been a member of PayPerPost for quite some time now and I’ve seen it grow and progress quite a bit from when it started. A lot more advertisers have come on board in the last few months and with the start of their PPP Directory, they seem to be going from strength to strength. I’ve noticed a few bugs in the PPP Directory, so I hope this funding helps them to sort it all out and build a better marketplace.

To celebrate the new funding, PayPerPost has launched a new website which is a lot more stylish than the old one and a lot more web2.0. It’s pretty cool.

I’m not sure how PayPerPost should spend the money. It’s be great if they gave it all to me, but I think it would be better spent getting their PPP Directory running well and promoted. I’d also like to see PayPerPost use the money to attract some bigger advertisers to the system. While there have been some great promotions run through PayPerPost, I haven't noticed any “big name” advertisers using their service and I think it’s time for the Coke and Nike marketing team to make use of PayPerPost's blogger outreach ability.

For more info on the funding, check out this press release:

Blogging Marketplace Secures $7 Million Series B

Draper Fisher Jurvetson leads round and joins Board of Directors

ORLANDO, FL – (June 12, 2007) – PayPerPost, the leading marketplace for advertisers to reach bloggers and other consumer content creators, today announced it has completed a $7 million second round investment led by Draper Fisher Jurvetson, an investor in the company's Series A and one of the world’s leading high-technology venture capital firms. The financing brings the total amount of capital raised by PayPerPost to over $10 million, giving the company considerable resources for further development as the industry’s leading Consumer Generated Advertising marketplace. Additional participants in the round include existing investors Inflexion Partners and Village Ventures as well as new investor DFJ Gotham. With this investment, DFJ Managing Director Josh Stein also joins PayPerPost’s Board of Directors.

“PayPerPost created this exciting new advertising space and has established itself as the industry leader,” said Ted Murphy, chief executive officer of PayPerPost. “Although we’ve only used a portion of our first round capital, this added support from investors unlocks significant growth potential. Our content creator and advertiser ROI metrics clearly demonstrate the upside for PayPerPost’s model. We intend to use this capital to build the infrastructure, visibility and professional expertise necessary to reach and retain a greater network of advertisers and content creators than ever before.”

Since its founding in June of 2006, PayPerPost has signed more than 6,500 advertisers to its groundbreaking service, which has enabled Consumer Content Creators to be compensated for their efforts discussing specific companies, products or services via blogs, videos or other media. The content creators are required to disclose relationships with advertisers on their blog, providing transparency for the end reader. Over 125,000 Internet postings, most in the form of blogs, have already earned money for their creators through PayPerPost’s innovative marketplace. PayPerPost recently released PayPerPost Direct, a disruptive new service that allows advertisers to contract and negotiate directly with individual bloggers they identify through a safe, managed system.

“PayPerPost has laid a strong foundation for the future,” noted Tim Draper, founder and managing director of Draper Fisher Jurvetson. “It continues to attract a critical mass of participants from both the advertising and blogging communities. Analogous to Overture’s sponsored search model, we believe PayPerPost’s business model holds disruptive potential and will enable the company to thrive in the evolving paid-content arena.”

To mark the $7 million dollar funding, PayPerPost has launched a new website detailing the company’s service offering at http://www.payperpost.com. Bloggers and advertisers can easily sign up at the site and begin leveraging the self service marketplace.

5 Things You Didn't Know About Me

I was tagged in another meme to write 5 things that you didn't know about me. At first I was a bit hesitant as I like to keep my private life private and I don't know why anybody would be interested in it anyway - it's not the most exciting thing in the world! But a blogger's got to do what a blogger's got to do, so here they are:

1. I have more books than CDs - It's not that I like to read, but I'm modern person who downloads music and transfers it to an mp3 player. CDs are old school.

2. My phone bill is more than my electricity bill - Hence, I'm always after new ways to make money online.

3. I'm an awesome poker player - There's no way you'll keep your money in a game with me. I am the cards!

4. I've never been skiing - Despite being only a few hours away from some of the best skiing in the world, I've never managed to get there and go for a ski.

5. I've never passed on a meme - I don't mind writing them, but I'm just not the sort to pass them on. Is that selfish?


I didn't say it would be interesting - but there's five things you didn't know about me!

How much are you worth?

I came across this great video the other day that takes a really humorous look at paid sponsorship on the internet and discusses how much money you'd need in order to do certain things. The video was inspired by the author being offered $10 in order to plug the new Joel Comm reality show. I've seen a little of the Joel Comm reality show and you'd probably have to pay me a lot more than $10 to plug it.

Why?

Well let's just say that it isn't the best tv show that I've seen. It's not the concept that I find a little weak - actually that interests me a little - but the production values of the show are less than adequate. Why Joel Comm chose to put himself in the show is something that I'll never understand. He just doesn't have an of charisma or appeal about him.

Check out the video:




Does anyone know who this guy is? I'd like to see more of his stuff!

The Most Award-Winning Antispyware Software

Spy Sweeper is the most award-winning antispyware software and they set me a great mission to complete before they’d let me write about them. I felt like I was in Mission Impossible!

In order for them to let me write about them, I had to decipher the following code:

SHX OGUONPR ZI RWP MAEJ ZUSBO-VCJSFPX OPKJCBLUSBP SGDURMPR

It wasn’t easy to do, but I’m a bit of a James Bond when it comes to things like this so it didn’t me long at all. Can you decipher it?

With their knowledge of code deciphering and encryption, it’s a pretty safe bet that Webroot Spy Sweeper software is one of the best in the business when it comes to scanning, detecting and deleting spyware.

To test them out, I downloaded their software and scanned my own computer for spyware. I didn’t think they’d find any, but I was wrong! It was a little shocking how much spyware they found on my computer, but the good news is that they got it off my computer too!

As the most award-winning antispyware software, they’re definitely the most viable option to kill the spyware on your computer. If you’re looking to speed up your computer and say a big “goodbye” to spyware, Spy Sweeper is an excellent solution for all your spyware needs!

It will stop your PC self-destructing!

What's On Your Desk?

So I was tagged in a meme to list some of the more interesting items that I keep on my desk and the idea intrigued me. I think a person's desk is quite reflective of their inner personality - is is neat or cluttered? Does it contain useful items or junk? Does it contain items relevant to what they use their desk for or not?

First with a description - My desk is quite small, wooden and cluttered...I don't know what that says about me, but that's the way it is.

To complete the meme and answer what's on my desk:

• Small CD player
• Water bottle
• Blank paper
• Pens
• Laptop
• Stapler
• Postcard from a friend
• Lamp
• Various software CDs
• Calulator
• Phone bill (paid)
• Credit card bill (unpaid and overdue)
• Frisk mints
• Headphones
• Broken necklace

I don't what all that says about me, but that's what's on my desk! Anybody care to analyze that?

How To Make A Discussion Board For Your Site

“GoBoardz” is a cool discussion board site that is great for people who need a quick discussion board set up for their site but don’t want to go through a lot of hassle. They’re pretty stylish and the best part is that they’re incredibly easy to set up and understand.

What I really like about using GoBoardz is that you can embed Revver videos which means you can get paid whenever someone views a video on your board. They also support Photobucket and RSS feeds which makes it great for sharing information with your friends and family.

Despite their coolness, they’re still improving and version II of their system is currently in development. It’s going to make it really Web2.0 and sleeker than ever! How cool is that! Be sure to check out GoBoardz - Free Forums

How To Buy A Train Ticket In Japan

Trying to use Japan's mass transit system may seem daunting at first, but it's actually quite simple once you've got the hang of it!

You'll always find above the ticket machines a large map of the transit system that shows the different colored train lines and the prices for each station. The prices listed are to get from your current station to your desired station, so simply find the station that you want to go to and note the price.

Not all maps contain the station names in English, so it's good to have the Japanese characters for your station on hand. If you don't, simply ask the station master who will be located near the ticket machine and they will be able to help you.

After finding your destination station on the map, go to the ticket machines. Most machines have an "English" button so press this first. Next, you simply want to the press the appropriate price that you need to pay on the screen and insert the money.

For example, if you'd discovered from the map that you need 200yen to get to Tokyo, press the '200' on the machine and then insert the money. Some machines work the other way around where you need to insert the money first and then the press the button. Either way, once the correct money has been inserted and the correct button pressed, the machine will dispense your ticket and change!

Congratulations! You've just bought a train ticket in Japan!

Make Money Online With PayPerPost

I absolutely love PayPerPost as I think it’s one of the best ways for small-time and amateur bloggers to make money online.

I’ve been a member of PayPerPost for only a short time but it’s been incredibly easy to make money with them. In the few months that I’ve been a member, I’ve been able to easily earn over $100 by writing posts through them and via their fantastic referral program.

I’m not really sure yet how I will use this money, but I’ll probably re-invest it back into the internet and maybe purchase some advertising of my own to promote some of my own websites.

From being a member of PayPerPost I’ve managed to learn a lot about blogging and the internet too. They’ve helped me to learn how to write effective advertising copy for companies and they’ve also opened my eyes to how many online companies are using blog marketing to create buzz for their products.

I’ve even made a few online friends through their forums who have given me lots of advice on numerous occasions!

How To Get On The Digg Front Page

Digg is a great web2.0 community where users can submit articles from around the internet that they like or think are interesting. The range of articles submitted is quite eclectic and ranges from technical posts about gadgets to humorous looks at the favorite comic books of different generations.

The great thing about Digg is it’s interactivity. Once an article is submitted, other Digg members can then vote on articles that they like. Articles that receive a large amount of votes are then “pushed” to the front page where they are given a higher degree of visibility and subsequently “dugg” a lot more.

For many webmasters, getting on to the front page of digg is fantastic as means that your site will be hit with literally thousands of visitors within a short period of time. In terms of promoting your site and giving it recognition, this can be a fantastic method.

However, it is not without it’s downfalls. Often, due to the large amount of traffic in such a short time, the sites that are on the front page have their servers overloaded and subsequently “crash” due to the large amount of traffic.

Despite this, getting to the front page of Digg is still a goal for many authors and webmasters.

To make it easier to get on Digg you should try this hack:

How To Add Digg Buttons To Every Post

This will help you add a button to your site so that your visitors can digg it without leaving your site. It’s a great way to make getting to the front page easier!

Make Money Online With The News Room

The News Room is a pretty cool new service that gives you access to hundreds of fully licensed news stories which you can display on your blog. The News Room gets content from such major news sources as Associated Press and Reuters and provides videos in an easy-to-access format for you to put on your site.

This is pretty cool as I often see some great videos on the internet and I like to share them with my friends. Not only can you do that easily now, but you can get paid for it too!

The News Room has an awesome payout system where you can start earning revenue as soon as you’ve placed the video on your site. Every time someone views the video, you're getting paid! It pays out from a starting rate of $1 per 1,000 impressions which means that it’s a “win-win” situation for me as I’m providing informative content for my site and getting paid for it!

They’ve also got a “viral payout” system where if the video gets viewed a lot, you can earn up to a huge $4 per 1,000 impressions! If you’ve got a high-traffic blog, that’s a great opportunity to make money online!

The videos are free and really easy to embed on your site. You can even win prizes (like vacations, electronics and cars!) when you participate. There are so many videos to choose from too! It’s not like you’re limited to environmental news or current affairs, as they’ve even got lots of celebrity news too:

How cool is that! The News Room is definitely worth checking out next time you want to place a news video on your site!

How To Find Interviews

When trying to find people to interview for your blog, one of the first questions to be asked is:

"How can I find interviews?"

It's not that hard. First, you should consider asking people who you already know or who author sites that you already frequent. These people will provide the best interviews as you already know their content and can ask probing, interesting questions. Furthermore, if they already know that you're an active reader, they may be more inclined to accept your offer of an interview.

The next step is to just ask anybody! Consider going to popular social networking sites like MyBlogLog or Myspace and ask anybody who you think would make a great interview. Most will be flattered just to be asked and will quite likely accept.

Just get asking!
