It has come to my attention that my contact form was broken!

Anyway, it is fixed now. So if you sent me something and never got a response, resend please! Let all that “contact me” mail start flowing again!

Have a safe 4th of July for all you U.S. readers.

I do like to game every once-in-a-while, it is part of my being if you did not know. I first heard of Spore a few months back from one of my friends. It is a “massively single-player” game being put out by EA (Battlefield, C&C Anyone???) and Maxis (SimCity, The Sims Anyone???).

What is “massively single-player”? From the Spore website itself:

While Spore is a single player game, your creations and other players’ creations are automatically shared between your galaxy and theirs, providing a limitless number of worlds to explore and play within.

Spore

The game itself is set to be release in September, but two days ago they released the Creature Creator. This utility allows you to create your own unique creatures to be used and shared throughout Spore. It is simple to use, and I have just having way too much fun with it! You can view My Spore Page to see some of the creatures and the stories behind each of them.

At some point in my endless travel of the internet I found payperpost; a service that pairs content publishers and advertisers together. I am always looking to give myself a new opportunity to make some extra money, so I created an account with them. In the beginning I had issues when I tried to get my blog approved due to my inconsistent blogging, but I rectified the issue by picking up my slack and writing more meaningful content at a quicker pace, -and look now I am posting more often!

I feel that payperpost really has their act together due to the following reasons… There is a substantial amount of opportunities currently in their system, which gives bloggers a variety of sponsored topics to talk about. They seem to have an exceptional rapport with both content publishers and advertisers. And finally, their support team acts professional, and can definitely help you in any case. These are important matters which lead me to sign up for the service.

Although at the moment few opportunities can really fit into my content niche or fit in with my reader audience for that matter. I am confident that payperpost will provide outstanding content to write about in time, I just need to wait for the right publisher to sign on with them. If you are serious about making extra money online, I would check out payperpost, they are worth the time.

In case you were wondering… Any money I receive from payperpost will be split in half and handled in two different ways: the first half is to pay for my data center costs and the second half I will donate to charities through the payperpost website.

Wow, this year has flown by! There are so many things I still need to accomplish before the year ends, and I am not sure there is enough time!

Here is a list of things that I want to finish by the end of this year:

  • phpZIPdir - I am shooting for a December 31st public beta date.
  • A few more tutorials on this website.
  • Finish Cindy’s business website/blog.
  • Better monetization of a few of my websites by adding quality content and products/services.
  • Execute a business idea that Chris and I came up with.
  • Start writing my novel.

That is not everything I need to do, because frankly I cannot post everything due to some NDA issues. I have gotten pretty busy though, and I am enjoying it most of the time!

Until next time!

…to me! I am 21 today. Awesome!
