More On Twitter

So the other day, after discovering that Fring supports Twitter now and made a post on it, I finally found the time to check out the website. Well, according to Twitter, it is a platform that allows people from all over the world to answer a simple question: What are you doing?

Well, isn’t it funny that there are people who would want to announce to the world what they are doing and that there are people who would be interested? I mean, I do sometimes receive SMS messages from friends asking me what I am doing, and IF I were on Twitter, they would not have to ask me but just check my Twitter. I guess that is how it works but then these are my friends and they genuinely would like to know.

Anyway, I don’t think I can do it. I will not be registering with Twitter for the time being. Maybe one day I would be so bored out of my head that I would actually do it, but right now, I don’t feel the need to let everyone know what I am doing to the minute, not when nothing special happens to me all the time.

Wholesale Sunglasses Supplier

I was surfing the internet this morning when I came across the website of a Wholesale Sunglasses. I remember that I was supposed to help a friend look for information on replica wholesale Sunglasses and I have totally forgotten about it.

My friend told me that she is in the midst of sourcing for a reliable and supportive supplier who would help her with her teething problems when she sets up a business to sell replica sunglasses.

I asked her why she chose this product in particular and she told me that she has done her research and this is one of the best products to trade in due to its cheap cost and light weight for easy shipping. Now that she says so it really makes sense!

I hope that she will find my information useful! I wonder if she will give me commission! But first, I wish her much good luck and success in her pending new venture!

Blogger’s Video Uploader

If you noticed, Blogger has this new feature where we could upload videos now. Whether it works or not, I have yet to try it because I do not have any original video on hand unless it’s porn that my friend sent to me *ahem* Don’t ask me why. Oh yea, I do have a video of my pet but it is so low quality, who wants to watch, anyway?

I wonder if this feature will throw an error when we switch from HTML and WYSIWYG windows like it sometimes does. If you are using it, do let me know.

There are quite a few features that I would like to see on websites that I use frequently, but then I have this fear that changing or adding of codes could actually pull a site down for hours, maybe. Come to think of it, Blogger was down for some time the other day just before this video uploader appeared. Maybe this was the reason?

Looking Out For Rare Gold Coins

The other day, I read on a website that there are people who are investing into rare gold coins. I have a collection of coins with me that my parents passed to me but I never thought of them as valuable until I read that article. It seems that people are collecting these coins as a hobby and at the same tie trading them, buying low and selling high, just like stocks.

I wonder if I have any coins that are in demand or not! According to the website at ZoomCoin.com, where there are images of these valuable coins, I don’t think I could find one of them in my collection! Bah! However, I believe that if I continue to keep my collection of coins, perhaps they could be “rare” when I pass them to my grand children! Who knows, right?

Anyway, it is good that I came across this website so that I know what coins to look out for to collect and invest in!

Used Cars Online Locator

I have been looking for a used car for quite some time now but still can’t find something that I like that suits my budget. Let me tell you, searching for a good used car can be very tiring! I am done checking the newspapers for Used Cars. They can only list that many once a week! And I believe, I have visited all the local used car dealers.

A friend told me that I should check out Used Cars and so I did. Wow it is so much easier just visiting AutoGuide.com and search for good used cars with their user-friendly guided search.

I was careful to select only cars that fall into my budget. I may have fewer choices to go through but it also stops me from viewing what I am unable to afford and it breaks my heart to see what nice cars are out of my reach. Perhaps some other time, I tell myself!

Apart from searching by make, I could also search the database by body style and lifestyle. It makes everything so easy just picking out my preferences. I wished I had known of AutoGuide much sooner so that I did not have to walk all over town just finding a used car!

Digital Camera Reviews

I have been looking for a digital camera for a long time now but could not decide on which to buy. I mean, there are so many new models coming out that I could hardly catch up with the latest technology. I keep asking my friends who are semi-professional photographers because I thought that they could help me but then they told me to check the review. They said that a digital camera is personal preference and they can’t decide for me. Bah… I hate making decisions. I also have to read digital camera reviews now.

Previously, I don’t really like reading reviews because they are so technical and I don’t even understand what the terms means but my sister told me to check out digital camera reviews on Test Freaks because they are written in plain everyday language. She said that she bought her Olympus based on reviews on Test Freaks and have been satisfied with her purchase.

I will certainly check the site out. If my sister, who is technology challenged, finds the reviews helpful, then I would too. I like to believe that I am technologically savvier than her!

Submission To Alive Blog Directory

Last night, a friend told me about a fairly new blog directory called Alive Blog Directory. I went to check it out and realize that it is the sub-section of the established Alive Web Directory. I thought it was launched not too long ago but I am surprised that the directory already has many submissions.

I guess my friend has been fed-up with me complaining that I do not have the time to network and build the readership and popularity of my blogs, plus soliciting link backs to build my Google Page Rank. I know it is my own fault for running so many blogs!

My friend told me that I could list my blogs on the blog directory and with the aggressive online advertising that Alive Blog Directory is doing, I would only have much to gain for my blogs thanks to the increased exposure.

I have actually submitted my blogs to many blog directories BUT the problem I faced was not knowing which category to place my blogs in. I see that should I decide to submit my links to Alive Blog Directory, I would not have such a problem because of its comprehensive list of blog categories to cater to all types of blogs.

Currently, Alive Blog Directory offers two listing packages; Standard and Featured. From these two, we can opt for a yearly subscription or a permanent placement.

My friend advised me to get the permanent submission as it is cheaper in the long run PLUS as the popularity of Alive Blog Directory increases, the rates may be revised, so I have to act early.
