Living in West Africa means it's warm all year round. I've slept naked for as far as I can remember.It's simply a question of comfort.

I signed up to inboxnow on the 23rd December and I already had 23 spam messages, some dating as far back as 5th December...even before I had an account with them! Incredibly, 3 of the messages were flagged as read.I can't imagine how they managed to do that. But it surely doesn't inspire a lot of confidence, does it? Gmail is by far superior.

If all you just told me is right, then I am more convinced than before that I was misled by those I paid to guide me in Adwords. This is not about blaming anybody but me though, I know the way such things work on the internet. If you are not looking out for yourself, you get into trouble. I invested close to $1000 in several campaigns, got quite a lot of clicks in so short a time. In one campaign, I had hundreds of clicks in the space of a few hours, and yet no sale. Now I know what I did wrong - wrong keyphrases, overbidded on keyphrases, too eager to make quick returns etc. I shall be trying my hands there again,i.e. after doing more research and getting a better grasp of how it works. But more importantly, I'll be taking my time because those folks who were clicking my ads and not making any purchases should have known they were literally clicking the shirt off my back. lol

Sure. This is what i did. I simply went to clickbank, pick a few products I thought would sell, got key phrases as provided by the owners of such products, and I just took all that and applied to create the adwords campaign. I lost all my money and didn't sell a single item. Don't get me wrong, I know I was the foolhardy one here. The Adwords program is probably good for those who take the time to do it right. I have been running adsense on my website for a long time and I have been satisfied with the income I get from that. I just thought I could make a kill with adwords. But guess who got killed?

some loser scientist with really bad eyesight saw a lizard upclose (or was it a croc or gator?) well, that's how the dinosaur legends all started. That is according to my grandma. Trust me, she's hardly ever wrong.

Like a sheep led to the slaughter, I believed all the hype about people making hundreds...in some cases thousands of dollars a day doing affiliate marketing using the Google Adwords system. What they didn't tell me is how complicated the whole thing can be.After spending a small fortune joining a number of membership sites and investing in the adwords program. I watched helplessly as my account failed to shift off the zero mark.If you are planning on going the affiliate marketing way, I'll advise you learn from my mistakes and not just believe when they tell you it can be done within 45 minutes. I know a lot of people are making good money with the Adwords program, but I also know that the learning curve is rather long and winding.Don't make the mistakes I made. You have been warned! lol

Internet Dating :) Is it yours by internet?
abidams replied to nehemiah's topic in Dating And Relationships
I'm not sure the internet dating thing is for me at all. It's Christmas and I am all alone again, at age 36! In the last 2 years, I have met 4 girls online, chatted online for a while and eventually met them. It all ended the same way - high expectations, dashed hopes.I broke up with the last one about 2 weeks ago. I had thought this was going to be different. We got along so beautifully when we first met via a dating site. We started talking on the phone for hours daily. We both felt things were looking good.I won't bore you with too much details, I'll leap and tell you we met and I was a little disappointed. Three things: 1. she was overweight (she had told me she was big, but I foolishly thought she was overstating it. I never expected her to be that big). 2. Her personal hygiene was cool (gross) 3. She suffered from legendary insecurity.We tried to make it work, operating under the illusion that nothing in the world is perfect. We believed we could focus on the positives and ignore the obvious problems. It didn't work.We don't talk anymore. We parted ways about 2 weeks ago.So here I am wondering if... What a Christmas I'm gonna have...another lonely, lonely yuletide.
