If Only I Had It

In recent times life has not been treating me well. I was once a millionaire with more than 4 properties of very high nett worth value. I had 3 cars , one sport and one luxury car and one family car, plasma tv’s , the latest in technology gadgets and other hardcore boys toys.  But in the past 5 months I have lost nearly everything even my job. It is very hard to live on but one has to live on. Now blogging is my life. Earning not more than only USD 500 a month it is still quite difficult to live. But I dont have a choice.

Even so after selling whatever I have it is still not enough to pay my loans and my other debts. How am I supposed to live debt free with all these problems. Making sure I can livem each month after month is not easy at all. Making sure that bills are paid and there is still enough for food.

The easiest and fastest way to make sure that I am able to live is surely to consolidate my finances and make sure that the payments will be lesser than what I am paying now. Bill consolidation is surely the easiest and best way out in this situation. And getting a job is the second thing that I must do. Although I have started to earn money by blogging but it wont be enough to live life as what it used to be. I am not looking to making millions anymore but just to live a simple life.

When you choose to use a company to help you consolidate your debts you should always choose one which is known by the banks and well used by the public. This is to make sure that when you receive your credit counselling it should be of good use and with experienced counselling. Such companies do exist. Most of them are government related and some dont even charge you for the services as it is a public awareness and public service. You will receive complete analysis of your income, debt and spending habits. The consolidator will act as a counselor in this situation and develop a plan of specific actions and behaviors which will result in long-term financial health. If you are totally honest during this process, you will be able to see exactly how you got into financial distress and what changes need to be made in your spending. Further, if you faithfully follow the recommendations of your consolidator, you will live a much more secure and stress-free life. Most important, the non-profit bill consolidator looks at the total picture. His priority is not merely to solve the current issue but to provide long-term permanent prevention. The for-profit consolidator may not be as concerned with this crucial prevention phase.

The main idea of consolidating your bills is to make sure that you understand that life continues on for everyone and you would have to buff up and live on. There are always bad times but there are also people who have more problems than you. The easy way out is not an option. I know I have tried it to no success.

The little cube shown to you here is known as the Iona Cube, which is actually a compact cube packed with Internet radio function. The Iona Cube is equipped with WiFi connectivity which lets you hook up to any WiFi network to receive Internet radio. The gadget is a concept design of Cambridge consultants, which the intention is to clam the Internet radio function into a simple little cube with low-cost design. And it allows users to access up to 10,000 Internet radio stations.

Operating the radio such as switching programme channels is easy, which you just have turn the Iona Cube onto one of its four sides to change to the pre-programed radio station. The fifth side is where the speaker is mounted and the sixth side is for you to turn on or off this radio cube.

The Iona Cube gives the complete different experience from operating traditional radios which mostly deal with “push buttons”. This cube definitely simplifies the way that users select Internet radio stations. And the cube also allows customization via its web interface. The cube definitely eliminates the hassle as seen in traditional Internet radio which users have to scroll endless list of stations. So, using this cube, they’ll just simply flip it. The entire design of this radio cube is focused on the simplicity, so it ain’t even come with a volume button. But no worry, you’ll still be able to adjust its volume by twisting the cube to the right to increase the volume. And twisting to the left to decrease it.

Online casinos today are making a huge comeback. More and more people are trying to find the best online casino to make some money. But are you up to it. You could even play for free at some online casinos as you are able to play with fake money for fun. Some online casino even offers you some start up capital to get the ball rolling.

The amount of free money can be from USD 10 up to USD 100 per site. In my own experience I sometimes use the free money myself to check out the site. Some sites gives you the free money knowing that their setting is so tight that you will loose the money anyhow. Some sites have a normal setting and you will notice that sometimes that free money might make you hundreds in profits.

My best try so far has been a site that offered me USD 50 for free and I striked a jackpot on their slot machines which paid me USD 8,930.25 and I got this money wired to my bank account. I did receive it if you are wondering. I played the 25 cents per bet but I played it big betting USD 1 each time I rolled the slot and within my 25′th time rolling I striked a few hundred dollars then I left that machine for a bigger amount machine and striked the jackpot before I lost everything. Did I mention that I did not deposit any money to start out with?

I am kinda happy today as I write this post this blog now has already 300 posts and so far about 275 of them has been indexed by Google. Most of my blogs have been 90% indexed by Google. Yahoo has only indexed about 50% of them. My largest blog to date has about 1000 posts on it and it is mainly about news from all around the world.

Celebrity news being one of the favourites. Baby health and parenting guidelines has always been a favourite topic by my wife and has a lot of traffic from all around the world. Mostly up to 100 uniques per day. I know this is not a lot compared to most technology and geek related blogs but what the heck it is also good news. Congratulations to me and my wife on our second month blogging reaching a total of about 3000 posts from 5 blogs with about 90% of them indexed and a total of about 2000 domains backlinking to them :0 .

Identity theft has been a major problem to us on the internet. Going through a few sites that offers identity protection I came across USA’s No 1 site for identity theft protection. And this is none other than Lifelock.

The price is kinda high but worth every single cent but if you want to save some money try using the lifelock promotion code RD 11 . I have saved you money already. Not only does lifelock offers you this great service but they will also guarantee you up to USD 1,000,000 . That is a lot of money that they have put up to show to you that they are serious about what they do.

If the promotion code I gave you earlier does not work try using Lifelock.com promotion code that can be found using this link. Making sure that you do not fall into the traps of all these identity thieves who are gaining interest into making your money dissappear and into debts you better head on down to purchase your lifelock service now but wait dont forget your lifelock promo code that I gave you just now. Or if not head on down to the site that provides it for you. Just make sure you start your identity protection today.

If you’ve been holding off on updating your iPhone to firmware v1.1.2 because you’ve gotten attached to your iToner ringtone maker, then you’ll be glad to hear that Ambrosia Software has released an updated iToner application that will now support your iPhone v1.1.2. iToner allows you to upload (drag-and-drop) custom-created MP3, MP4, and AAC files onto your iPhone for use as a custom ringtone. Why pay $1 for every ringtone through iTunes? iToner pays for itself after just 15 ringtone-changes. If you’re like us, it’ll pay for itself in no time at all.

Following on Ambrosia’s previous iToner update, the new iToner v1.0.4 will bring bug-fixes and UI enhancements in addition to iPhone v1.1.2 support. If you just haven’t pulled the trigger on the $15 iToner app, there’s even less reason to hold out. It’ll make a great gift, for friends and loved ones as well as yourself.

Ok, enough gushing about iToner. With Garageband’s new support for iPhone ringtone exports, it’s going to be interesting to see how iToner fares in the long-run. Garageband 4.1.1 is still $80 outright, so only new-Mac owners will be able to take advantage of the bundled Garageband software for free - otherwise, the $15 iToner app is a much better deal than the $80 Garageband.

Do Follow Bloggers

This is a list of blogs that have removed the tags from the comment area on their blogs. By removing this tag, or using the Do Follow Wordpress plugin to remove the no follow tag, these bloggers are making the links that their visitors leave when they sign a comment count towards backlinks for their site.

The more “real” links that you have on websites, the better for your site as the engines will count these links towards your sites popularity and it might help boost your sites page rank too.

Update July 31: This site and our other blogs are now Using Lucia’s Linky Love do follow plugin. This is a wordpress plugin. I do not know of any plugins for other blogging platforms. There’s been a rash of human generated comment spam and this new plugin allows you to set how many comments a visitor needs to leave (with same domain url) before their comment link will follow. You can reward your regular loyal readers much better with this plugin.

Important - This site uses Lucia’s Linky Love plugin - that’s why the links do not follow for those who are visiting this site for the first time and have only left a couple of comments. I’ve been getting snarky comments lately about this site not following and that’s simply not true.

Note: Many of the comments below are from new visitors so they do not follow. If the person has become a regular visitor their comments will follow when they’ve left enough comments on this blog. - end Update

Leave a comment or send me an email (dragonden AT rogers DOT com) if you’d like to join the list. Please state in your email that you’d like to get on the blogroll. Some people just write to tell me that they are a Do Follow blogger and I’m not sure that they want to join the blogroll or not. LOL

I have an email with full instructions on adding a blogroll to a number of different types of blogging software, all you have to do is follow the directions!

You must not use the no follow tag, and you must be willing to place the blogroll on your site in order to join.

Your site should also have a fair amount of regular posts and not be too young. I’ve had a number of people asking to join the list and their site is brand new with only two or three posts. I want active sites on this list and a site with only a few posts on it doesn’t guarantee that you’ll still be posting in it next month. However a site that has three solid months of regular posts is probably written by a blogger who will continue to work on the site. So please, make sure your site has a lot of regular posts in it before you apply to join the list.

Also - if your site has comments closed to only registered members, only blogspot members or members of a particular site (ie xanga, livejournal) they cannot truly be considered a nofollow blog as the link would only go to their profile and not their actual site. Moderated comments are fine, but as I said, comments closed to site membership do not qualify.

I shouldn’t have to say this, but I’m only accepting blogs on the blogroll - not websites. Your blog should also be written in English or have a large portion of English posts as the majority of Do Follow List members have blogs that are written in English.

Also, if you are leaving me a comment but haven’t yet added the blogroll to your site, or learned how to take the nofollow tags off your blog - please don’t include a list of your blogs in your comment. Comments that include several links go to spam and it’s a little more work to pull them out of spam and reply to them. Also .. if you list your sites I tend to check them .. if I don’t really have to do that yet I’d rather wait until you are all ready for me with blogroll and “follow” tags in place. Thanks!

This page was originally created in April of 2007, but I respond to the comments that are left almost daily. Do not be afraid that you are leaving a comment on an old post that won’t be read. I reply to almost all comments.

** Also, if by chance you join the list and decide to go back to being a nofollow blog at a later date please have the courtesy to tell me. Please?

If you’d like to use one of these logos above your copy of the blogroll, or in your link to your Do Follow blogroll page please feel free to save the one of your choice to your computer. Do not link to the image - that’s hotlinking and I will not appreciate it at all. Just right click over the image and save it to your computer and then upload it to your server. Ok?

here are your choices:

Our friends over at VE3tro have confirmed that Midway & Epic are sticking to a release date of December 10, 2007 for Unreal Tournament 3, for the PS3

“Unreal Tournament 3 Slated to Ship on December 10, 2007, for the PS3 in North America.
Midway and Epic today announced that the PS3 version of Unreal Tournament 3 is scheduled to ship to retail outlets in North America on December 10th. It is expected to begin arriving in stores in limited quantities the following day, with a U.S. suggested retail price of $59.95.”

The offical release date for the EU is still unconfirmed but should be in line with the US. We watch and hope!

Comcast, one of the largest ISPs in the US, took the decision to restrict the Internet access for some of its customers because they download too much. Although it might sound a little bit shocking nowadays that you can’t download as much as you want, the company disconnected the users as they
were slowing down the entire network and increased the latency and the loading times for all the other users. AFP reported that in order to get a notification from the parent company you have to download 1,000 songs or four films from the Internet. However, every consumer has 30 days at disposal to resolve the matter and to avoid the disconnection.
