What is social bookmarking

⊆ 3:21 PM by Tofuninja | ˜ 0 comments »

Do you know what Web 2.0 is? What about Social Bookmarking?

These are two terms that have greatly changed the way people work and interact online. Regarding the latter, it is a way of sharing the things you like on the internet with others.

Say you like this video



You can use sites like Stumbleupon, or Digg to not only bookmark it but have the chance to show it to others.

One might think that there are a few such sites that allow one to do this, but in fact, there are many. To this end, here are 50+ such bookmarking sites.

If you like my site or any article, feel free to social bookmark it. It's below the submit selection to the right.

Happy Social Bookmarking!

An Additional $3.94, Yippee!

For those of you that hadn't seen my previous post about how I made $1.16 risk-free, click here. Anyway, for the month of January, thus far, I've made $5.10 by pretty much just making educated guesses.

Here is a screenshot of my earnings.



Hmmm, enough to get a meal... what kind of food do I feel like?

Hahaha, I do recommend you check out my article on Predictify and here to register for a pretty cool social network. Like all of the other links on the outset of the page, this is risk free and can only help you learn and earn :)

EDIT: I made an extra $4.35 after submitting this post for the month of January from Predictify, $1.76 from Kickitback for purchasing things on eBay, and $1.23 from the risk-free stock market site The UpDown; a total of $12.74. :)

 

That's What She Twittered

⊆ 11:25 AM by Tofuninja | ˜ 1 comments »

Are you simply infatuated with updating your status every other minute? Or perhaps, looking for a new way to market a new idea/product/space?

Introducing, Twitter - What are you doing?

As the site reveals, Twitter is "a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?"

It comes out of the idea that "basic updates are meaningful to family members, friends, or colleagues—especially when they’re timely."

(I think these ideas are funny)
* Eating soup? Research shows that moms want to know.
* Running late to a meeting? Your co–workers might find that useful.
* Partying? Your friends may want to join you.


Twitter allows you to control how much or how little you want to know what others are doing, or what you're doing--for that matter. I've just used it for a little bit, so I haven't customized hardly anything or posted that many Twitters, but it seems pretty cool. It also seems useful in atypical ways, including as a marketing tool, flash mob tool, and means for information to be put on quickly in times of emergency.

 

WOW $1.16!

⊆ 10:35 PM by Tofuninja | ˜ 0 comments »

I just received $1.16 from The UpDown for beating the S&P 500. Time to go out and buy a pack of gum.



Hahaha, seriously though, if you've ever wanted to learn how to invest or even play around in the stock market, this is an excellent opportunity to do so.

Check out this link to receive a personal invitation to The UpDown, so that both of us can profit from each other's experience :)

 

Browser Got You Wanting More?

⊆ 9:42 PM by Tofuninja | ˜ 0 comments »

I don't recall why I had to use Internet Explorer a few days ago, but I do recall me constantly asking why. I mean, having used Firefox for quite sometime, I've gotten used to such perks as user-friendly tabbed windows, weather reminders, and mouse shortcuts.

It would be kind of nice if IE could bear some resemblance to it's more hip cousins, kind of...

So Firefox is cool, but what could be cooler? Firefox and your best friends of course!

Introducing, Flock - the browser for people who like to be connected.

Internet users spend a lot of time going from one site to the next, keeping up with a variety of friends and interests. Flock pulls all of your favorite people, places and content together in a convenient view and delivers a more personal experience of the web, where its users are more easily connected to what's important to them.

Flock features the ability to sync with:
-Facebook so you always know what's going on (including when you receive new messages and invites)
-Flickr so you can have quick access to your favorite pictures
-Your favorite rss feeds so you know what's going on (you can subscribe to your favorite news sources and your choice blogs... hint hint)
-And so many more services

In all, though the extensions need to get up to where Firefox is, Flock is still a pretty amazing browser at least worth trying, especially, for the person wanting to be in the know!

 

Speaking of Making Predictions...

⊆ 2:19 PM by Tofuninja | ˜ 0 comments »

There is also a new site that has come about that deals with making predictions and rewarding users who are most accurate and quick at forecasting.

The site is called Predictify.

It is interesting in that it seems trivial to want people to predict X, Y, and Z, but if this site becomes popular enough, it might just become another way of gaging people's opinion.

It might become, in essence, a techy gallop poll, quite potentially able to influence the way corporations, business, and politics does... well business.

Most intriguing to me, is why someone would pay to find out how much a home should be priced. Just a cheap way for a Realtor to do his or her own pricing accurately, or funding mispent?

Ever Wanted to Invest in the Stock Market?

⊆ 1:51 PM by Tofuninja | ˜ 0 comments »

Before finding out about this site, I know I was one of those people. After all, I always thought it would be cool to invest funds in companies I highly valued; not only to potentially receive returns from these stocks, but to derive a sense of ownership in the company.

Of course, with this responsibility came fears of not knowing what to do or of losing a great deal.

A new social network, The UpDown, combats this problem through giving you $1,000,000 in free virtual money that you then use in the buying and selling of stocks. It's pretty cool, and for simply beating the S&P average or writing good analysis' you can earn real money.

Generally, The UpDown is a social network for investors. Essentially, however, it is more like one of those learning games (ie. remember Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing) with the added bonus that you can earn on your picks. :P

And if you're looking for something a bit more political to play/learn, you might even try Fantasy Congress.
