My Reflections

So, what on earth is this counterclockwise all about, you may wonder. Well, since I’m so bored that I could spill my guts out, I’ved been searching Google for all kind of unused words from the technical area. One of them is counterclockwise. You will be amazed how many things are like this. Here we go: Read the rest of this entry »

I can already here you exclaiming: “how the hack does that look?”. Well you asked the wrong question. The right question would be “Does it make cookies or it does what a phone is supposed to do?”. Read the rest of this entry »

I was thinking this day how great the tuned cars are. I’ve seen this day on the streets lots of cool cars with all kinds of reams, special engines and tattooed with the craziest paintings ever. I discovered a blog about modified cars that you can visit by clicking the link. I’m definitely going this year to a car tuning show.

Everything is smooth and fine except that today I was at work and that just ruined my day. Hopefully tomorrow being Sunday, I’ll be more relaxed and I’ll spend some time with my girlfriend.

Sorry for the long pause in my posting but I had some problems with my site. I hope it will be fixed soon.

I’m starting to get bored with my new job. I think I’ll open a business on my own. Any bright ideas? I’m waiting for them! I tought being an entrepreneur shoud work out just fine.

I am a firefox user, ever since I start using it for the first time, I never stopped using Firefox, nor did I used IE or Opera for that matter. But I came across a site that blows Firefox into small little pieces, discrediting it, curiously with heavy arguments and 3rd party studies. Check out Firefox Myths and beware that even if you think you know much about firefox or you love using it this will probably change your opinion. Firefox is not the fastest browser, nor it is the most secure and it does not have less system requirements than other browsers according to this source.

First time I made contact with the internet money making was in 2004 when I stumbled on a commercial for an autosurf program: 4daily. Intrigued, I opened this site, and quickly learned that if I invest some money in it, it will give me back after a period of time a much better return than a bank will do. Being in the beginning of my experience with internet programs (actually the first program I ever been in contact with), I was so enthusiast that immediately I start digging it in detail: How much I have to spend in it, what are the funding options, what’s the exact return, what are the fees, etc. Cautious by nature, and because I have seen in my real life lots of scams, I studied some forums, only to discover lots of good feedbacks and nothing but “Been paid” posts. I was convinced to go on with this program, but in the funding options I found: e-gold. I thought, what the hell is e-gold? A quick dig on google, I found that e-gold is one of the most loved internet payment processor. No chrgebacks, instant payment, etc. So, I thought, how do I fund my freshly made e-gold account? Only to find that only some third-party exchangers makes possible to buy e-gold. That was too complicated for me.

So, the next reasonable step was a way to fund my e-gold account in order to deposit some money in the first program I met with: 4daily. After some more digging I discovered a site that was promising to pay me in e-gold if I read the mails that they are sending and click on some advertisers links. Easy, I thought. So, I joined this site, by the way, it was WorldWideCash, and started to click on advertisers ads, read the mails that I was receiving from them, and all the other stuff they had me to do. But, disaster: after a couple of days, in my account balance was only 0.01 USD! So, disappointed, I started to look for more and more of this programs, so I find DrClick, TyliaPays, SendMeCash, StormofCash, Mothmails, etc. After a month I was making only from clicks about 0.10 USD a day.

That was not enough. I joined more and more of this Paid-To-Read (PTR) and Paid-To-Click (PTC) programs, in the end I was a member of about 30 of this programs. Some of them paid me in e-gold, others in StormPay, others in MoneyBookers. By the time I raised the 4 dollars needed to deposit at 4daily, it had been 3 months since I discovered it. So, happily, I deposited 4 USD of e-gold and started surfing for my return. But again disaster struck: 4daily was going down, and so were my dreams about making a fortune on the internet. Eventually 4daily disappeared, and so was my money. Well, I tought, I’ll just have to take-it all over again. So, I did, but this time I found autosurfs that only went quicker and quicker down the drain.

So, for the rest of 2005 I sticked with my programs and began raising a little fortune in my e-gold and moneybookers account. I requested a check with my 10 USD in my StormPay account, but disappointed again by the 7 dollars that I had to pay at the bank in order to cash the check. Hackers emptied my e-gold account. So, I was back to the drawing board.

Digging the internet, I found Paid-To-Promote and the PTP concept. Promoting a page full of advertisements will get you lots of money, but only if you promote-it heavily. So, I joined lots and lots of autosurf programs and started to promote my Paid-To-Promote promotional page. At the beginning I was making a measly 0.10 USD a day from this, but one day I found How to promote the doono page. The next day I made my 1st dollar / day. By the end of the month when it was due to make my 35 USD in my e-gold account, disaster again, Ryan, the Webmaster of Paid-To-Promote quitted on us, and again, no money.

I was running out of ideas when I stumbled upon Adsense from GOOGLE. Now in 2006, I bought a domain and I’m beginning to build a site rich in content while continuing my PTP, PTC, PTR, AUTOSURFS and all the other internet money making. I hope one day to finish my site and put some adsense commercials in it and see what will happen then. Will disaster strike again?
