Panoramio Photo Gallery

Monday, June 16th, 2008

Web 2.0 is all about sharing content with other online friends and my son just sent me a link to a photo he put up on Panoramio. It didn’t take long and I was hooked myself!

This is the simplest tool I have seen and I had my first picture up in a matter of minutes Click Here

What’s really cool is in a few clicks, I added a Google Map to show visitors exactly where the photo was taken and it also included a link to Extra Information so they could see the camera I used and all the settings, without me doing a thing!

Take a look and please leave me a comment.

Social Networking

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Since my desire to participate in the Blogosphere rose from my membership in a Social Network, I though it only fitting to start here. I wish I had a dollar for every Social Network I’ve joined, but the truth is very few were able to hold my interest for long. The big exception was Yuwie, and I rose to become among the top .01% of the active members there. I think it was my blog that spurred me on, so I decided to branch off and start a personal one I could monetize a little easier. You can visit me there by Clicking Here

I got my amazing start with Yuwie from another network called myLot, but the administrators turned out to be impossible to deal with. As I talked more about Yuwie and signed up many of my friends on myLot, they must have feared it would damage their own effort and blocked my ability to post. With over 6,000 active discussions and a position on the Top Referrers page, they should have known I wasn’t going anywhere and strongly recommended others follow suit. So instead of a loyal suporter, they forced me to comment on my own website at myLotScam.com

I get more offers than I can count to try new ones, but if you follow along here I think you’ll learn why I don’t. These communities are fine for making friends and I have all I can handle on Yuwie, but I think making money is better done in other ways and that’s why I’m online.

Stick around and you might pick up a few tips!
