24th February 2007,
I'm getting a little irritated at the PPP segmentation. It's destroying all the joy in blogging for cash at the comforts of your own home. With the new segmentation regulation, bloggers with low PR and Alexa ranking, is facing the worse of its PPP season.
Before the implementation of Segmentation, the Opps (cash opportunity) is usually up for grabs with the minimum quantity of at least 20 Opps. But now.. we can't even barely get 1 Opp for a few days straight and when I say "we" I really meant "we", the low ranking bloggers."
No doubt PP has new ideas to make us get more cash but with the never ending red-coloured highlighted posts mounting, one would wonder until when will PPP holds it lusture with its "small men." From what I've been experiencing, they are more catered to the advertisers protection since they are the paymaster.
But shouldn't the advertisers remember that most of the times, the small army ants pack more punch than a flock of geese?
Instead they just concentrate on the big guns, forgetting that blogs are actually to cater for readers who are close to the bloggers and not for the pleasure of the advertisers and those who has established trust and respect for the bloggers will take whatever was reviewed into heavy consideration. If that were the case, then they should have paid domain webholders to host their advertisement and reviews for their products or site, it still amounts to the same cost anyway.
I know I'm taking a big risk in writing my thoughts about this Segmentation thing but sometimes even the saintest person can be tempted into cursing. Try being in my "tiny" position and then you tell me..

Big fish to catch
As usual, my favourite PPP (PayPerPost.com) has made another idea on catching bigger fishes for those bloggers that has high ranking blogs. For those who has high ranking blogs, from PG3++ and low Alexa ranking, bloggers can easily earn as minimum as USD100 per post. I've seen it and even come across to those that has USD700+. It certainly gives easy money for hardworking bloggers and a good blog marketing strategy.
Imagine, you just need to only log onto the internet, type in a minimum words of 200, post it and you have just made USD100 on just a post. I've been telling my friends of this easy money making, but yet those stubborn bulls just don't want to try. What's the point of surfing endlessly while you can just make some cash when you log on the NET everyday. I just don't get those idiots.
Although on the down side, those who has a low page ranking, like me, we are only priveleaged with those opps that pays the basic amount. But never fear, at least the low amount opps doesn't run out fast!
So what are you waiting for? Click on PPP button on my Left-Nav bar and sign up now!

Food guidance..
So I just recently came back from my nightly-haunts for great "makan" (eating) places. Since there are so many eating houses here in my place, Skudai, I've decided to drop some info for the Makan places I've been.
Please take note that I was wearing really house clothes (T-shirts with bermudas/ really worn out jeans) when I went to eat at these places, its a habit of mine to see how good their service are and whether they are downright snobs.
Restoran Mustika Zam-Zam
Location: in front of Bestmart hypermarket, behind KFC. (Tmn Tan Sri Yaccob)
My pointers: Bad service.. The servers keep mixing up the orders and they certainly do not like to entertain locals who wear tattered jeans and worn-looking T-shirts. Time taken for the food to be served is 15mins.. (I was downright hungry)
Food was nice although the RM2.00 Murtabak was a little too dissappointing cuz there wasn't enough meat to suffice my hunger.
My Ranking: Not coming again.
Ros Merah Restaurant
Location: Nusa Bestari in the direction of Sutera Utama from Bukit Indah, beside Repson Spare Parts.
My Pointers: Friendly service. Although sometimes the new recruits jumble up the orders, their attentive supervisors is always there to make sure the right orders heads our way. The servers will indulge you in a conversation if you feel kinda lonely when you are dining alone at night and the large TV screen is enough to make soccer lovers to crawl out for a dinner. Food is served in 10mins or so and their Murtabak RM4.00.. is huge with lots of meat and well meat in them.. and you can request for extra crispy top layer.
My Ranking: Good for really hungry diners.
lets see... there are still plenty of good makan places in Skudai but since I've never taken care of the names of the shops... just have to wait for another post for the upcoming good Makan places.

Make money by just..
Once again PPP has made up a new way of earning money for bloggers who hates to affliate their blogs or do sponsored posts. See the nice looking badge at the bottom of my post? Yup.. thats the one that creates the "Kaching" once somone successfully sign up with PPP and reviews any of my post.
For PPP users, you can just click on the "Affliate Tools" in the your Nav-Bar on top when you sign in. Then select "Review My Post" option and copy the code and paste it into your post. Simple and easy.. and you can blog traffic..
I think the whole idea is very interesting especially when I finally get to read the reviews written about my post. True I've been receiving lots of reviews for my fics especially Indigo Eyes, but it's still will be very interesting to read what others thought about my random ramblings.
Who knows one day I get to read some interesting insight of what others think of my post.

Request..
19 February 2007,
Happy CNY people! I finally managed to actually figured out what to do during these days. Yesterday went swimming at Batu Layar and unfortunately the sunblock lotion didn't work as good as I thought it would be. Simply said, everyone in my family are all walking cooked lobsters.
Anyway due to a request brought by a friend of mine, I've decided to put up Bleach Anime video on this blog and going to change the episodes every 2-3 days cuz the episode has a total of 115+ as of to date and its still increasing.
But I won't posting up my account videos instead gonna just give the credits who had put them up on Youtube.com. So to start off, its gonna be episode 1... and I'm still counting the days till episode 116 is up... haiz...

Blind me!
Since Chinese New Year is just around the corners, people have been going around shopping for new items (who can blame them.. country-wide is having 70% discount) and doing their Spring Cleaning. In my case, I'm stuck with the usual chores, the window cleaning..
The heavy drapes are certainly going to be the death of me one of these drapes which is why I'm contemplating in just getting blinds or those fancy shades I've been seeing in those offices. And my current obsession is this webbie.
It's a place where you can find up-to-date window shades and blinds. But since I pretty much fancy this particular roller shades I might as well share certain info on this one. Hmm.. like all roller shades, you can roll them up or down as and when you like, a large variety of colors to choose from along with price managers to give us a more little insight tip for those who are on budget.
Their Javascripted link when you mouse-over the product add-ons is a real helper to first-time customers as they help to describe the usage of the item and even show how the items look like. (certainly its a consumer friendly webbie). For those who wishes to DIY your own blind installation, you can actually view them on their full installation instructions guide for each and every product listed or you can just call them on thier hotline.
My verdict: A+ must see!

Greetings kinsmen!
Since I'm in a good mood, I might as well share something which I have been keeping all to myself for years. I have been sending out free personalised e-cards from E-greetings.com and not once have I strayed from my cute cards whenever given a chance.
I mean really, as the years pass by, the cards they make really tickles my stomach and most of the time when the addressee replies back, it's another cute lil e-card which surprisingly had somehow been overlooked by me. Oh well different people have different taste.
And I have decided to share this lil cutie with you... hahaha.. sexy birthday eCard and a sure nightmare for we women... ahaha
For those who are wondering to get more of the premium cards (they are really worth your money), you can actually sign up with them and get a free 30-day trial membership to send unlimited eCards.
The yearly subscription is only $13.99. (Didn't I tell you it's worth your cent?) Anyway one of the main benefits of membership is that users can schedule e-cards to arrive on a specific date, personalise them with your own pictures and greetings and schedule it to be sent immediately or on the exact date you choose.
It beats the waiting time you have to que just to purchase your ready-made card.

Where is that thick book?
When someone talks about encyclopedia, one would think of the big thick volumes with lots of words and pictures in them. But in this site, its totally different. They have an encyclopedia for almost everything from ad-related to informative posts, categorised in alphabet formats.
At a glance, the site looks like a pre-schooler classroom, bringing sweet remembrance of my time when I was still running around with poster paints on my face. But this particular is post, really catches my eye. Computer Rental... hmm.. If only they have it here in my place, then I wouldn't go running around in panic everytime my system coughed its last breath.
Hold a minute!! I got another interesting post to share... Monsters aw... a great detail of the meaning and history of monsters. But I didn't see any Monster Inc movie in the post.. oh well... I love those monsters from that cartoon.
Go take a look at the site.. I'm going to continue surfing thru the site.. very interesting

Oh! They even have a competition for the best dressed up doll. Ain't that something! So for all those Doll Lovers, this is a good site for you, at least it beats downloading all the custom made icons when you play SIMS 2 like me to create this cuties!.. *snickers*

Bring me to the PORTAL
After a long rest nursing my injured head (there is still a small lump at the back of my head), courtesy of the irriating air-con duct bracket that I've managed to grace my head with, I'm finally rid of the throbbing headache and happily searching for new interesting sites that are worth to look at.
I've found a very simple looking looking advertising related webbie in London. It's simple looking site is an A+ compared to those messy-lump-in-everything adsites.
For those who simply love to get their pics taken by qualified photographers and simply got no time to fuss over your pics with Aodbe Photoshop 7, no need to look further cuz you can find it here. They got a large variety to choose from. I kinda like this particular webbie of photographers.
For those who wish to suggest a link, you can enjoy a free ad for a month with them. Quite simple eh? You can also suggest a new category if you can't find a suitable one for your ad. The clicks and reviews labelled in each site will give you a lift if you can't decide which addie is the best. Or you can just browse through their Popular Linkies.
My Verdict: The simplier it is, the easier it goes for your brain. (^-^)
