Earlier, I wrote about the quick response I got from TextBroker. In that post, I noted how even though it was taking them forever to rate my articles, they were able to respond to my email in less than 24 hours. Here’s where it gets weird. A couple of weeks after they sent me that …read more…

In general, I am loathe to put a lot of links on this blog because a lot of them just die faster than the speed of meme. But sometimes I come across stuff that I could share on Twitter or Facebook, but that’s a lot of work keeping track of all of that, and someone …read more…

This is what I said: When I log in, your front page states: “As soon as we receive an article from you we evaluate it. Your rating …read more…
I am still tweaking this blog. I have finally got the appearance the way I want it, and although I am still tweaking bits and pieces of it, I believe most of my work is done there. Now, on to the structure. I am starting with the menus. Using Kalin’s Post List plugin, I am …read more…
I said a while ago that I was going to explore various online freelancing opportunities to see how much money I could make with them. The first one I tried was TextBroker.

I got out and got as many pictures as possible, but hoarfrost is a very temporary entity at best, and difficult to photograph on a sunny day. These are the best of perhaps twenty photographs I took that morning …read more…
