Twitter was first on the scene again when an estimated 5.4-magnitude earthquake struck near Los Angeles today. “So, now people tweet first and then run for safety?” one amused onlooker commented on Feedalizr.
I have been really slow on my blogging activities lately. Well, one of the obvious reasons is laziness, I need to cut down on my sleeping time. And another reason (less obvious!) is because I am actively working on a new online project. I got in the water as fuel niche, which is profitable, but in very less time I must say there is so much competition already. Anyways, it’s not too interesting, except for the part where I make money :-P
So, I’m hoping to be back and posting on FusionFoot.com more often again. I think I should put up some daily reminders on a to-do list website to remind me to post here and buzz me with an SMS or IM message.
A cool website I found that can do is RememberTheMilk. You might want to check it out too.
WinAutomation, as the name suggests, can automate the most boring tasks under your Windows environment. I didn’t purchase my copy (yet!), I’m using the trial version for 30 days to see how I can setup some of my daily routines on the computer on automation.
It’s really easy to use, unlike other automation software, you don’t have to be an experienced programmer to use it. If you are a SMART computer user, you should be doing fine with it. The automation instructions are presented in simple English.
Best of all, if you can’t figure how to automate something, you can contact their support with the maximum details of your task and they will guide you, even if you’re just using the trial.
Now, each automation process can be converted to a .exe file. That means that, the .exe file doesn’t require WinAutomation to be installed on your machine to run, so you can still use the .exe files you created even after the trial period is over.
You can now Spy on the conversations going on on the social networks like Twitter and Friendfeed based on the term which you wanna keep an eye on.
This is a cool new feature. I’m not very active on Friendfeed, but on Twitter I definitely am, and I can say thanks to this spy utility, I can make and follow new friends who share the same interest on me very easily.
I haven’t used it to find friends on Twitter yet, because I decided to come here and blog about it as soon as I discovered. I’m sure many will like it. So, go ahead and Spy on the social media conversations :-P
PayPerPost is a unique kind of advertising network. The simple idea behind its advertising model is that advertisers can offer money to blog owners (publishers) to post about their websites and products.
The good thing about payperpost (PPP) is that they have a large number of opportunities in their database, so you can post about a product which you and your readers are interested about. Another important thing is that, you are not writing a sales page or promoting the site. You are only giving a honest review and you get paid for the post only, not affiliate commissions.
PPP is a company of IZEA, who also just launched a new paid blogging community called SocialSpark. PPP has been around for quite a while now and many bloggers are registered with them.
It can also be a way to promote your blog because advertisers can get in touch with you if they like what you write about. You can also be the “Blog of the Day”, which is a nice little feature which displays a blog that is gaining popularity in their network.
Also, all new bloggers get the opportunity to blog about PPP and you get $20 for that. Ok, it’s not a lot, but the opportunity is currently available to everyone and you just have to write a few words on your personal experience with them to get the money. That’s almost free money. Of course, they will need to approve the post and do some other procedures before sending the cash to your Paypal account. But, you don’t need to worry about all that. They pay on time.
They do have some strict rules and regulations for approving your blog in their network. I suggest you read them carefully before submitting your blog to be reviewed by PPP staff.
Scribd.com allows you to upload and share your documents in any major formats, such as PDF file, DOC file and PPT file. The cool thing is that when you share these files, one doesn’t have to download them, they can be viewed on the website with Scribd’s own document browser.
People are used to writing and publishing articles to article directories (like I do on EzineArticles), but this is an innovation to it. You not only publish your work to the world, but you can also get feedback from the Scribd’s community.
Other features include unlimited storage space for your files and the ability to embed the documents anywhere on the web.
The documents you share can be about anything (respectful!). It can be Ebooks, PowerPoint slideshows, music sheets, photos… just about any type of documents actually. So, go to Scribd, and start exploring their library, you might just find that recipe you have been looking for so long :)
I-Dose is the website where you can find a collection of sounds to stimulate your brain. Some of the binaural beats can help you relax your mind and improve concentration.
These audios are best to listen when it’s all quiet. You can just sit down comfortably somewhere and put your headphones or earphones on and listen to the ones you’re in the mood to hear. You can also share your experience with them if the audios made any difference to you, or just if you wanna thank them for providing the service.
When one is considering to put a website online, I believe, the most important decision to make is about the web hosting service. You are going to have a long term relationship with them, so you have to meke sure you choose a company with quality service, which fits your budget and provide helpful support when needed.
There are a number of web hosting providers out there now and comparing each can be a real headache. It’s worse for beginners who do not know what they are looking for exactly in their web host. The guys at WebHostingGeeks.com have done all the hard work for us. They have reviewed the best web hosts and ranked them so it becomes easier for you to make a decision.
On the website you will also find lots of useful information and web hosting articles.

Let’s talk about frames and glasses! I wear glasses because I hate the hassle of putting lens in my eyes to make them more miserable than they already are. I used to wear lens a couple of years ago, but for now I’m sticking with the good old glasses.
I often like to change my frames, most of the time because I get bored with the looks and style of it. Usually, whenever I change my frames, it can cost me $150 or more. When I saw the prices at zennioptical.com, I have to admit I was shocked!
Prescription Glasses from $8!!!! That’s unbelievable man! Apparently, they can offer such low prices to their customers because they manufacture the frames themselves and sell them directly to the customers, hence there are no middleman fees, etc.
Check out their website and get shocked :-P
