Buying and Selling Domain Names for profit – .com is coming back?

Is Domain flipping the next thing since Real Estate flipping just died?!

interesting article!My friend asked me to register a domain name for her and I was surprised how many good names(.coms)  are taken but not really developed into web sites – just sitting there parked(or not even parked – this part I don’t understand if you have a domain why not put it up-there to get a word & traffic  out) waiting to be sold.  Read full article here

Second Life Competitor – Google’s turn to show it’s own 3D Virtual World

Seems like Google has their own version of Second Life…
I am not surprised. I liked the concept of Second Life but could not really enjoy it. Graphics are from 10 years back and very confusing to navigate for a newbie.
Google has pretty much all the components for it – Google Earth, SketchUp and Orkut to tie it all into virtual social networking. Orkut was launched in South America and hopefully will make it here by then. See full article on TechCrunch

Where to Host your Blog? Does it matter?

O yes it does matter!

There are so many free blog hosting companies – blogger.com(google), wordpress, livejournal to name few big ones. Here is my observation.

My co-worker created an account  on Blogger.com 2 weeks ago and she has about 30 hits(2 weeks!!!) as of today(according to her site meter). I’ve got 20 hits here on WordPress in 2.5 days!!! I think wordpress community promotes bloggers much better than blogger.com. I wonder what is the percentage of bloggers from blogger.com that abaondon blogs due to no traffic! Anyone know how to look it up? So far I am happy here !

For all beginners in Film Making

if you enjoy making movies or trying to break into a field here is a great forum(DVXUser.com) where you can find any questions answered – Sound, Script Writing, Camera Techniques,  Special Effects, Stunts, Video Editing , Avid, Final Cut Pro,  3D Graphics etc.

I believe in learninng on a set (assisting either photographer or film director / camera man)-  you don’t get paid but you learn so much. Just absorb the knowledge of people with years of experience and go further with on line research – forums and communities.

Adsense Secret Recipes? WTF?

People talk about Secret Recipes for Adsense. If you buy my book I’ll tell you step by step how to do it. What kind of BS is that?

If I knew where gold  is – would I sell a book  to others with directions to it’s location?!!!

I can’t believe people are falling for this crap!!!

Here is an interesting article - from blogger -  nextwaverider on how people show a check from Adsense but don’t tell everything behind that check! Worth reading!

Another funny blog – this guy (MyGeekEgg) makes fun of – “Made $7,000 last month in google ads” type of blogs!!! He is only asking for $2,700 in 3 month not in 1 month to buy a new Apple IMac(Respek! sweet machine for video editing! Final Cut baby!)

World goes nuts with Adsense?

Everybody talks about making money with Adsense.  hmm… should I stop selling weed and jump on the band wagon too?

Does it really work?

Somehow it reminds me of “work from home” ads in the back of the newspaper! LOL!

Anyone needs any HTML / Javascript Coding?

I am looking for a gig here in NYC. I’ve checked craigslist but so far I’ve got no reply. I wonder if anybody finds anything on craigslist.

Just a bunch of people crying about non paid gigs!

If you hear anything from your friends please let me know!

I can create a website in html, basic css / javascript You can look at my website – www.holamadre.com to get an idea.

Thanks!!!
