I just read an interesting topic on Muti about a blog on blogger.com, which is all about how South Africa sucks. This blog is going against the blogger.com terms of service (While Blogger values and safeguards political and social commentary, material that promotes hatred toward groups based on race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran status, or sexual orientation/gender identity is not allowed on Blogger. ) and should be flagged and removed.

You can help by visiting the blog, clicking the ‘flag blog’ link and voting!

With enough of us flagging the blog, we’ll hopefully see blogger.com remove the blog from their system, as it should be!

For a brighter look at South Africa, check out SA ROCKS.

Because everyone wants to work from home, and it’s getting more and more popular, I decided that I would start publishing my earnings a little more often, hopefully to encourage more people to start doing the same!

My earnings in May, June, July and August have made me proud. I have seen an increase from month to month and this month I’m hoping to carry on the trend! Here are my Adsense stats for the month thus far:

On top of my Adsense revenue streams, I also do paid posts, which generate around R1000.00/month and banner adverts, which generate about R750.00/month.

I also have a few other streams including TrafficSynergy and the likes. It’s important not to limit yourself to just one income stream, keeping all your eggs in one basket is not the idea. Rather spend time optimizing an income stream and whilst doing so, document what you did and then redo the same steps, which worked, on a new income stream, slowly growing your streams!

If you’re interested in a paid post or advertising on iMod, make sure you take a look at my advertising page.

I came across this classic website and felt that it’s worth the post. I would suggest that you take the time to view the source code, as that’s where the second level of humour lies:

I just finished watching Vantage Point, pretty cool movie! Directed by Pete Travis, with actors Dennis Quaid, Matthew Fox and Forest Whitaker, Vantage Point showcases the attempted assassination of the American President. The story is told and re-told from several different perspectives.

As for what the film promises, it promises a good puzzle, suspense and intense action. It delivers on all accounts. This plot has twists and turns and is completely logical. Half way through this movie, if you think you got it all figured out, you haven’t got a clue.

The action is fairly balanced through out the film and keeps the film moving. The car chase in this film is one of the better ones I have seen in a long long time. It had some shots in it that I think were a small homage of the original The Italian Job (1969) car chase scene.

I really did enjoy it!

There’s a lot more to it than just that, take a look at the video below for more information.

The other day I was doing a presentation where I explained that many Internet users think that Google is the Internet. It makes perfect sense, if you’ve not been a web junkie, logging onto most computers presents the user with a Google Screen.

Much like this, a number of people might see Facebook as operating system of the Internet. The fact that Facebook literally does everything a person needs, could easily guide a person into thinking that it is the “application”, which controls the Internet.

I’ve spent most of this year studying Facebook, watching the changes to the platform, watching which applications work, watching people move from photo sharing websites strictly to publishing their photographs on Facebook and what I have noticed with the most recent update is the position of the application menu at the bottom left of the screen. Doesn’t this resemble Windows? I think so.

When Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, bought Parakey, which is a web-desktop startup, there was word from Mark that he was going to turn Facebook into the operating system of the Internet.

Think of it this way, the following features replace websites and tools around the Internet:

- Pages replace simple websites
- Ads allow users to advertise anything they want to targetting markets, which replace a number of online advertising channels
- The Marketplace replaces websites such as Gumtree
- Photos replace systems such as Flickr/Thunda
- Events replace calendar systems such as Google Calendar and such
- Notes replace the requirement to have a blog, per say
- Wall/Inbox – Replaces emailing
- Chat replaces MSN/Gtalk (excl. voice, for now)
- Birthdays replaces websites with reminder systems
- Status Updates replace the requirement to use something like Twitter or Plurk
- Boxes allow you to basically create a desktop of all your applications (drag and drop, the works)

These are just a few of the more obvious ‘applications’ running inside Facebook. I’ve not even gone on to discuss the myriad of different applications which provide anything from business tools to educational tools to travel related tools!

It’s going to be extremely interesting to watch Facebook evolve over the next several months, whilst they build upon the new Facebook.

I was looking over the Virgin Festival bands line up when I noticed that Snoop Dogg was on the list, whaaaaaat?

He is listed as “TBC” though, so this might not happen, but what an interesting act to throw in amogst Maroon 5 and the Parlotones!

Anyone else heard anything about this?

For those of you who don’t know, twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that allows its users to send and receive other users’ updates, known as tweets. Tweets can be seen as text messages which move between users’ computers rather than mobile phones.

There are hundreds of thousands of twitter users around the world, all sitting and waiting for the latest tweet to come through. Receiving tweets is substantially less intrusive than instant messages, I know that’s one reason why I use twitter, on top of this, it’s really useful, sometimes, to know what everyone is up to, as it makes life easier in terms of following trends.

Bloggers and article publishers use RSS to stream their content to subscribers, in much the same way, this content could be streamed via tweets.
