Why I Blog

Yahoo! I'm so glad that you have stumbled upon myspace in the world wide web. Feel free to digg it and leave a message if you wish. I'm a fairly new blogger, so please be gentle.

I just love most of the things I find in the internet. It is such a thrill sharing my discoveries with family and friends. There are only two major requirements when I recommend a site. First, the site should be free to use. Second, it should be fun, if not, then it better be paying me to spend time in it, or at least saving me money. I'm sure you'll find some interesting and informative sites here. Please read on...

I recently found this site, www.gizmoz.com ,where you can create your own animated avatars. You can even make them speak by recording your own voice or writing a text message that the program can record for you. These avatars can be placed in answering machines, video clips or animated stickers, which you can embed to liven up your website, blog or profile page. You can then have your friends leave a message in your answering machine through your website.

Learn how to save money on your monthly phone bills. I use MagicJack and I make unlimited phone calls for less than $50.00 a year. Also find out how I save on my auto insurance.

There are numerous websites that you can visit and make some extra cash for doing so. I have listed several programs that I have found to be useful. Check them out and tell me what you think.

Boomertowne pays members to browse the site. You'll find informative articles and entertaining activities. You'll get paid for making friends, rating jokes and recipes, submitting tips and photos, and various other activities. I was able to get a $25 gift card after three weeks just doing those things.

Some people would like to see confirmation that the program is legitimate before spending any time on it. Of course, I am one of those who require some proof that I would get paid for my activities. I have made copies of my checks and Paypal transaction details to show which sites can be trusted. You can take a look at them here. My favorite sites are Cash Lagoon, Cash Crate and Sizzle Fizzle. The first two are geared toward users from the United States but the last one is open to all countries. I often suggest Marketing Pond to my friends living outside the United States. All sites are free to join and you get help getting referrals to your programs. Sites are constantly added and removed accordingly.

Now, you would want to show off your blog and your collection of photos and videos to everyone. Where do I post mine? I belong to a few social networking sites that allow me to send messages and images to several contacts at once. Dada and Dollar Space are Google Adsense friendly, so I use them often. Recently, I have discovered Yuwie. It sets itself apart by being the first to pay users for all their activities on the site. For more info, click on the banner below:

You can also list your blog in search engines and blog directories. I use BlogSkinny and Blogmama for this purpose.

You can also have other webmasters and bloggers add their links to your own site.

If you don't have your own blog or website yet, why don't you create one? This way, you can direct your family and friends to your various sites in just one page. I use Blogger and Bravenet for this purpose. To find out how easy it is to create your own blog or website, click here.
