It’s easy to make money from blogs. There are all kinds of programs, affiliations available to make money from blogs, in fact, even easy money.
What is a blog? Blog is a personal space, rather a personal diary, with the difference that it is not a closed diary but one that is open to anyone to walk in and read and leave a comment. There are various types of blogs, some are business blogs, and some are social networking blogs. Some blogs are personal some are professional but most of them have a theme on which the contents are based. Creating a blog is easy, even a child make a blog. Types of blogs Comment blogs are the ones that offer comment on events in the writer’s life. Comment blogs often substitute for newspaper editorials. Needless to say they are a combination of news and opinions. Blogs are tools in the hands of writers to keep in touch with each other and also to inform the world about events in the writer’s life. Recently, there have been instances of bloggers updating the world about events in countries that have undergone political change, when no other traditional media was allowed to cover the events.
The other type of blog is filter blog. Filter blogs are similar to comment blogs but point to other locations within the internet for articles and have minimum of content, and more of links. Owners of such blogs can be requested for links to sites, for a fee, of course. You can make money online using these blogs.
You can opt for any of these types to make money through blogging. Most blogs such as blogger.com and wordpress.com are free to subscribers and you can easily create a blog in a few steps and earn good money.
Creating a BlogBlogs are easy to create on Blogger.com and wordpress.com. There are other blog creation sites such as typepad, and MSN’s live.com. It only takes a few clicks to create a blog. Have a name that is appropriate to the theme of your blog so that they will show up in search engine results and it can also impact your ranking on search engines. For example if your blog is about mobile blogging have a name such as mobile-blogging.blogspot.com. Do not combine the two words, i.e., don’t create a blog with the name as mobileblogging.blogspot.com. It’s a better strategy to use the former to let search engines find your blog.Promoting Your BlogFirst of all submit your blog to the major search engines before you can earn money from blogging. Slowly, your traffic will build and you can paste a visit counter to check the progress of visitors on your blog. Also send a link to your friends and extended contact lists to visit your blog and link to you. When the number of links of your blog increases, so will your popularity and your rating with the search engines.

Ever wanted to save that favorite YouTube video to your local computer? I have wanted to do this for a while now ever since I started using Media Center more and more. I have most of my videos in a video folder, however all my favorite YouTube videos were on the internet, so I was forced to minimize my Media Center, load up IE7, load YouTube, etc. I just wanted to have them ready to play in case people came over!
Although some people might have you believe this is a difficult task, it’s actually very simple. Below I outline the easiest way to rip a YouTube video to your local computer.
Load your favorite YouTube video.
Copy the URL from the address bar.
Go to www.RipZor.com
Paste the URL into the textbox and click “Get Video”.
The website will generate a flash file for you to download.
Click on the “Click Here” link to download the flash file, it will save as an flv file.
At this point as long as you have a flash viewer on your computer, you will be able to play this saved file, without having to connect to the internet, or having to go to the YouTube website! What if you want to play them in Media Center? You will need to convert this file to sometime of video format that is supported in Media Center.
The simplest way to do this is to download this zip file. It includes a program that will convert your newly created flash file to mpg format. Here are the easy to follow steps.
Download the zip file here.
Extract the zip file to a folder on your computer and run flvconverter.exe
Click Add Files and Browse to the location of your flv file you just converted.
Choose an output folder by clicking the browse button.
Click “Process”
You should now have a mpg file on your computer that you can play at any time! Most importantly, you can add this to your video library on your Media Center without having to load YouTube!

In the past months there have been numerous rumors about the Google’s own cellphone, or otherwise known as the Gphone. As time went by however, the concept around it became vaguer and the talks about the Gphone slowly turned in talks about a phone based on a Google mobile OS. Well, finally yesterday’s official announcement cleared all misunderstandings about the issue.
The simple facts are as follows. Google will not make a Gphone by themselves - the software company will stay a software one. Instead Google have developed a Linux-based open source mobile OS called Android. Now in order for any new OS to gain speed, it needs the right hardware. And since the OS will probably not be able to run on the existing hardware architecture for mobile phones, new hardware platform has to be developed. Building on that, naturally Google tried to involve some major hardware manufacturers on the project. And so the Open Handset Alliance was born.
The experimental Google boat called the Open Handset Alliance has made room for a total of 33 major players from the hardware and software industry (Nokia, Apple and Microsoft are not among them). So finally it’s clear - there will be no Gphone, instead there will be many Gphones by various manufacturers (such as HTC, Samsung, and LG). Those phones will all be based on the new Android OS but there’s no word (not even a whisper) what will their specifications or even form factors be. In fact HTC are the only manufacturer that presented a vague launch date for their future Android devices - no sooner than second half 2008.
So hardware-wise, we’re still nowhere near finding what the future Gphones will be like, but software-wise even more good news is coming. The Google Android OS will be totally open to every UNIX programmer out there that would like to have a go at it (but manufacturers can have a second word on that). The good has just got even better, as Google is planning on making beta SDK (Software Development Kit) publicly available within a week - on November 12.

Yesterday when i visited the Stuff 4 world site then I did notice some change. Actually I saw the page rank showing a rank and it was not 0 Page Rank. In fact I was happy to see that current page rank assigned to this site are
Directory PR - 1
Tiny URL PR - 2
Main website PR - 1
I am expecting a major change when google will be assigning the update for the pagerank next time.
There are couple of new things happening about which i will update you all.
On the tiny url generator i have also added a widget which is powered by google Gadgets. So i guess it gives you the authenticity of this widget. This widget code can be added to any web pages or blogs. This will help your users to get your sites url small and even can convert any url to small. This widget is also available by widgetbox.com
http://www.widgetbox.com/widget/TinyURLGenerator
Widget box doesn’t allow any widget to be submitted on their site until it passes their multiple quality check process. And I am very happy to announce that this widget has passed every test of google and widgetbox. So use this widget and integrate it to your websites or blogs.
In Directory we are going to introduce sponsorship for the home page. We are undergoing the programing and the testing of the online ad submission form. We will be providing 111 boxes with 20×20 each to put your ad. On roll over of each ad you will have a description with image. This will help your sponsor link to get supported by the relevant text and you will have a ranking on the search engine. Only 111 boxes will be out on directory currently. We have a strong feeling that we will have PR 4 in next update of google. So keep submitting your blogs or business website. We have a ultra fast approval in just 12 hrs.
