My new forum Cash and Chat is now open to the public, if your interested in joining a great get paid to forum. Check it out. It’s still new so there is not much there, but feel free to post anything but spam and adult content!

I’m excited about this mostly because I love meeting and talking to new people. I also love helping people make money so this is a great thing for me. I don’t plan on making a ton of money from this forum, but I am hoping to connect with different types of people and maybe even learn a thing or two. I have invited a few of the members from Cash Buddy Cafe, a forum I was a moderator on for a while. If you were a member there, you are more then welcome at cash and chat.

I’m now a user of social spark and I love it, it’s a great site and really very helpful in connecting people who love to blog. It’s also great seeing what everyone else is interested in as I have found some people who share the same interest as me.

Anyway one of my fellow social spark members decided to come up with a blog roll for social spark entrecard users. That way we can all drop cards on each other! If your looking for an easy way to drop cards you should check it out. It’s a great blog roll and even helpful to people who are not on Social spark.

For now you can check out the blog roll by clicking the pictures below, I’m going to be setting up a page with the blog roll on this blog and my money blog.

When I first joined Pay Per Post or Izea I was unsure of what I had to do. After a visit to the boards I understood the paid posting process better and I could see that I would make a few friends there. I don’t talk much on the boards, but I am always in there reading and seeing what the latest news and information is.

Recently Izea redesigned their boards and I love it. I have a forum myself that I recently upgraded and having them move to the new boards has been a great experience. I love the way it looks along with how easy it is to get around. Yes it took time time and a few things were annoying at first but once I figured out where things were I loved the ease of use. I visit the boards at least 3 times a day if I don’t have class, sometimes more. The community there is amazing and most everyone is helpful. A feature of the new boards that I like is the birthday plug in. It’s fun being able to wish members a happy birthday I think it increases the community feel. That is what is important on any forum, you need people who are helpful, fun and interesting, the Izea boards have that and they now have style.

I’m very excited, Pay Per Post, now IZEA. Is letting out there new ranking system called Real Rank. The members will have first access this week. By Thursday, Thanksgiving here in the US, we will know what our real rank is and we will know where we stand with pay per post.

I like this program very much because it realize on stats from your site, not someone’s opinion of what your blog is worth based on who links to you. Here is my question, yes you get a website to link to you who is a PR 8, but does anyone actually click that link? If not does it really matter? I still am a firm believer that traffic is the most important thing for any website.

I think this is a great program and will blow the whole page rank thing out of the water and make it invalid. There of course is always more information (and a video) on the IZEA blog.

I just finished reading a post on the Tech Crunch blog about how all Pay Per Post bloggers are now going to leave ppp because of the drop in page rank. Though I’m sure a few have, the best of the group have not. I don’t think Tech Crunch realizes that PPP pays us much better then Google ever will and provides not only an income but a great way to get rid of writers block.

 Tech Crunch and many of the commenter’s on it find paid post unethical, yet they have sponsored post everywhere. They have banners all over and they “Thank” there sponsor’s all the time by leaving them “no-follow” links. You can read more about those on the post Is Google Treating all Bloggers Equally? 

The bad thing about this post on Tech Crunch is that it assumes page rank means something. A comment claims that advertisers care about page rank, and yes they do. But if there is an alternative that could change. Pay Per Post parent company IZEA has done just that with Real Rank and I think it’s a much better solution to page rank because it tells an advertiser exactly what that blog is worth based on what that blog does, things like traffic and active links in.

If your interested in a good story you need to see what happens with paid link reporting experiment.

I’m really interested in all of these changes going on at one of my favorite get paid to blog sites Pay per post now Izea. I hope that this will really change the way you can earn an income from your blog and of course the most important part, enhance the experience of my readers.

Social Spark, I think is a great idea, it’s like my space, but for bloggers. You have a page for yourself where you can tell other bloggers things about you, show off your blogs and other cool things. If you want to know more about it check out this review of social spark.

I really like being able to earn money like this through my blog. I don’t have much of a life out of school so doing the paid to blog thing has helped me come up with content that I feel good about sharing with you. It also has introduced me to some great products and services. I just hope that Izea will continue to grow and provide a great service to bloggers. Time will tell right?

Why is it that any book that deals with magic or fantasy is automatically the Antichrist? Why do people think they need to ban movies and books that are not hurting anyone but inspiring children’s imagination and growth. First we had the Harry Potter series which was supposedly promoting witchcraft. I have read these books and there great! They don’t promote witchcraft unless you tell your children they do. They promote reading and imagination. Tell you children it’s not real, and it should be okay, but that would involve being a parent and we know most people today are not parents, they just like to pretend to be.

The newest addition to this wonderful outcry of Satanism is the movie called The Golden Compass staring Nicole Kidman. This movie is based on a series written by Philip Pullman. A website I was recently pointed to, claims that he is an atheist that is trying to kill god in his trilogy His Dark Materials, which includes the Golden Compass or as the book is known in England and maybe other countries, Northern lights.

From the research I did I got this. The book is fantasy, think the lion the which and the wardrobe or the Lord Of The Rings, . These books were written for children. They are made to make your children think and to spark there imagination. Again I have always said if your not sure about a movie for your children, GO SEE IT YOURSELF and then decide if it’s okay for them, but once again that involves being a parent and as I said before people like the idea, but they never seem to want to actually do it. 

So do I think this movie is the Antichrist and is teaching children to hate god. No! It’s not real people, stop complaining and find something more productive to do, use your time to help the homeless or the starving children of this world. Christan’s who complain and start things like this are only driving non believers away as even I as a Christan find it very annoying!
