PayPerPost Helps Me Get Traffic
I have been making money from PayPerPost since early April. The money, of course, is what it is all about. However, I've discovered a side benefit. My paid posts bring me traffic. Here's a look at my Learn to Earn Sitemeter stats. Notice the google search for Clark Howard. Now take a look at the print screen from the search page. At the top of the page, you'll see Clark Howard in bold under Learn to Earn and, if you look down at the bottom, you'll see that this search result has me on... Read Full Story
Is AW Survey A Scam?

South Florida Weather: Hurricane Fay
My Dad (age 88) lives in the West Palm Beach area. Fortunately, he lives pretty well inland so when a hurricane comes through, I don't have to worry about him being flooding out.

If you live in a hurricane zone or will be... Read Full Story
Don't Get Your Blog's Custom Domain Name Through Blogger!!! Part 3

I needed to know what type of product I had bought. Did I just buy a domain name, a hosted domain, or a forwarded domain? Not really knowing, I tried all combinations and my site URL. Nothing worked. Next was dashing a Support... Read Full Story
Ryan Lochte's Olympic Feat
All the news has been about Michael Phelps. Don't get me wrong. His accomplishments certainly should be applauded. But all that has overshadowed what Ryan Lochte did which was win two Olympic medals with less than 30 minutes between races. Lochte, the world record holder in the 200 backstroke, won Gold with a last surge in the final 30 meters, taking 1/2 second off his world record. Then, less than 1/2 hour later (actually less than 27 minutes between race start times), Lochte got back... Read Full Story
Don't Get Your Blog's Custom Domain Name Through Blogger!!! Part 2
