If I have learned anything from working online is that you learn a lot from other people. I don’t think I would be where I am today without the help of people I have met from blogging. I’m sure all of you know who John Chow is. If you don’t then you should, he is…

Get a Larger Monitor, Become more Productive
I’ve always liked larger screens, I mean I work on my computer 6-8 hours a day so the more screen real estate I have the easier it is to get work done. Back when everyone had 17-inch CRT monitors I decided to go out and get a nice big Dell 20.1-inch widescreen LCD. Back then…
Social Networks and their Importance
Social Networks, some people hate them, some people love them, and some people just don’t care. I in fact I use a bunch of different social networks and I noted in a previous post. Now I do use these social networks for personal use (keeping up with friends, meeting new people, etc), but I also…
The First Dollar

Yahoo Turns Down Microsoft
Well this was not the best news to me. I had really hoped if Microsoft and Yahoo joined forces a lot of good would come of it, especially in the online advertising market. As I said Yahoo’s Publisher Network and Microsoft’s AdCenter don’t even compare to Google Adsense, but if they were combined, there could…

Since the Super Bowl I have talked to a lot of people about the commercials, hell its good conversation and its great to remember some of the better commercials, who could forget the Apple Ad of 1984. Anyways most of the people I talked to said advertisers pay way too much for the 30-second spot,…
Microsoft Offers Yahoo $44.6 Billion!?!
You may not think that I follow stocks that much, mainly because I never really talk about them on the blog, but I do follow the big players, Google, Apple, Yahoo, Sony, Microsoft etc. Things haven’t been looking good at all for Yahoo. Their Q4 earnings were down 23 percent and their stock has been…

Ok let’s make this easier, say you make…
Finally Some Changes to Adsense
If you haven’t noticed when Google does something they usually keep it the same for a long time. Mainly because they usually do things so well they do not need changed. Adsense has been the same for a long time, there have been some minor updates but that’s about it. Well Adsense has rolled out…
Advertising Types Explained
The world of online advertising can be very hard to understand for someone who is new to it. A few years ago I had no clue about ads and how I was making money off the ads on my site. I just threw up some Google ads and was surprised that I was actually making…
Agloco Dead in the Water
A while ago I made the post “Agloco is Dead”, but a lot of people gave me criticism saying they were going to change things up and the proposed 10-year payment system would be changed, well it’s to late for that. The other day I got this e-mail from Agloco… “Dear Bob, We would like…
