Is your Blog half empty or half full?

Paul

Are you blogging and nothing is happening?

Let’s face it, having a blog doesn’t always mean you going to get the audience that you expect. I might not be the perfect example for blogging but it is what everyone is wanting to have a blog. Getting past the noise alone can be a very hard process. You never know who will read your blog or who will comment. That alone could make or break your blog writing ability. I don’t mean that it would actually break your blog or anything of that nature, but I am talking about who comes to your blog and why.   This is the reason why some bloggers blog and others journal, each to its own.    Some like to just write down their thoughts and others are looking for the lifetime of knowledge.

Blogging isn’t really about money!

Some bloggers want to make money and others like me want to build a community.    It’s not that your blog is half empty but you should consider your blog as being half full.  Your probably trying to figure out what you need to blog about but you really should be searching for what you want to blog about and not thinking about the money.  Although I would be amiss if I didn’t at least want to make money blogging.   My goal however is to do something that I love and that is to write.   I might not have a lot of writing skills but I will learn and adapt.   Adaptation is the key to a good blog at least in my case.  Knowing that is one part of a bigger picture some would say.

Finding the Time to blog!

This is another facts of life, for some it is easy to find time to blog and for others well just say they need to blog at all hours of the night.    It is actually just personal preferences when to blog, but just because you blog doesn’t mean you are going to make a dent in who will come.   It however does mean that you can work hard and expect to make money.  So here are some points that I am going to work on:

  • Work with other bloggers — Having seen how this can help me, I will be collaborating with other bloggers to become a better blog.

  • Work on my blog — I’m am going to rededicate myself to making this a better blog.

  • Making money —  Hey I didn’t say I wouldn’t want to make money but that is something that is going to be secondary to creating a better blog.

  • Helping others — If you need help creating your own blog or setting up your blog then you can contact me and hire me to help you in creating a good blog.

4chan and Woofer equals Chris Pirillo

Paul

I was doing my usual looking around the internet and I found Woofer, this is almost like Twitter but a little different.  woffer is:

We are in no way associated with Twitter.

This is simply a novelty website where we thought it would be funny to have a minimum character requirement for public posts and see what people did with it.

What can you accomplish with the extra 1260 characters?

  • – Be eloquent.

  • – Use adverbs.

  • – DEA (don’t ever abbreviate).

[Via Woofer’s About page]

As I was checking this out I saw Chris Pirillo Posting comments almost like it was a bot:

chris-pirillo-woofer2Upon clicking the MORE button you would get something like this:

chris-pirillo-woofer1

[ad]Now I don’t know what the extra characters are but let’s talk about Moot and 4chan.    Moot is the founder and owner of 4chan.   I can only guess what is going on but the public timeline for Woofer is littered with  this as off tonight.   I don’t know if this is just to get attention to go to woofer or if this is an attempt to have 4chan attack Chris Pirillo, either way this will most likely be an ongoing development.  if anyone can figure out the characters by all means email me or leave a comment and I’ll do a followup story on this.   Although this could be because you have to the ridiculously long woof and might just be added by the server to fit the character requirements.  I do not know.

Twitter Spam for Cari-weightloss

Paul

I was doing my usual checking out what people are talking about and I see Cari-Wieghtloss.net, Cari-Weightloss.com, and Cari-Weightloss.org.

Going to the Pages I see:

Cari-weightloss-spam

I already once talked about the [intlink id=”3638″ type=”post”]Acai Berry Twitter spam[/intlink], but this talks about another product that is part of the Plan call “ColonCure” which if you look into they have had some complaints about them.   I even found more from the Rip-off Report’s, talking about taking the money out of your account.  There are two links in this page that point go to these products.  They both come from the domain meet-google.com, which I must warn you is not associated with Google.com.  I did more research on Acai Berry but I will let you read what people have to say about that.

Cari-weightloss-spam1Cari-weightloss-spam2

[ad]Each of those sites have a clause where they have not be evaluated by the FDA(Food and Drug Administration).   Also they either say out right that you will have to pay for shipping or don’t say at all.   If anything says anything about these companies until they have been tested by the FDA, I would recommend people not try these products because of the possible side effects or complications that may result in the combination of the two drugs.  I’m not a doctor but I can tell there is something fishy with at least on product and if I find one there will usually be more.

*UPDATE*

I have done more research and I am seeing most of these accounts only have 1 or two tweets, which means they are just bots.   I also see others who don’t do there research because they want to think this will be a quick fix for weight loss.   There are some that makes me think they might of been hacked or got their password stolen.   I would message the person asking if they really put that comment up?  If they didn’t I would recommend them changing there password!!  If I find out more I’ll let you know!!

*UPDATE #2*

Looks like this is hacked accounts.   If you see someone sending this out send them to my site so they know all about this.  If it is your account you should change your password as soon as possible and go back and delete those links from your twitter account.
