Web sites

I’ve decided to try and make some money from my dabbling in web sites. Over the years I’ve tried to get various projects off the ground, and up till I’ve made nothing. But things are so bad at work, I have to do something to get out. There are 2 ways to make money. 1) to get loads of traffic and get paid by click-trough’s. 2) to make money from Affiliate marketing. Clicks take tens of thousands, so I doubt if I will even make enough to pay the hosting. But Affiliates likes Clickbank, can turn a... Sign in to see full entry.

Big Brothers X factor Space Race

One way to fund a trip to Mars, would be to have a group of people with cameras on them night and day, a bit like a celebrity TV show. There would be no questions about money, as the sponsorship alone would pay for it. But a constant subscription, would ensure there would be more than enough money for any serious space funding. I think this says something more about us as a society and points to the future and our survival. Sigmund Freud came up with one really good idea. And that was the herd... Sign in to see full entry.

Adsense

I’ve decided to have another go at trying to make a little money from writing articles. Of course you won’t make the money from the articles, but the traffic it generates. Over the years I’ve compiled a list of sites that are worth bothering with. As there are many that are not! The big sticking point in all this is Google and Adsense. They stopped my account for inactivity, as I let it all slip for many years, and I can’t get it back again. Basically they won’t give you an account unless you... Sign in to see full entry.

Small movies

I notice that my efforts to place small movies on this blog are coming to nothing. I like putting up silly little things, as a hobby, but this doesn't seem to work any more. No idea why, it used to, with other photo sharing sites, but no more. Sign in to see full entry.

Better days.

When I look back on my summing up of my life in pictures, I see important points, but very negative ones. The pictures are dealing with places, but some of the most important points of my life have been in films, books and records. When I look at the biggest iconic albums of the past 40 years, I think how they affected me. Pink Floyds’s Dark side of the Moon, was a seminal point in my life. One of those Road to Damascus moments, when the scales fell away from my eyes, and I saw the wonder of the... Sign in to see full entry.

The future of novels?

Battery packed in on the car. Sarah gave us a jump start with the leads. Worried the damn thing will do it again, but I think it’s just the weather. At least it isn’t raining today, but very dull. I just looked at the web site of the writer D M Thomas. He won a whole punch of prizes for the novel The White Hotel. I’ve read 3 of his books, but none of them come up to the Hotel. One thing which struck me, was that, what would it be like if he wrote on Blogit every day, the way we do? What would a... Sign in to see full entry.

Coast 2 coast AM I listen to a guy on Youtube that pirates a channel on the Coast to Coast AM radio show by George Norrey. I’m expecting him to be taken down any day, but it’s good stuff. Now and again it hits on a real subject, not just UFO’s and Bigfoot. One, was about DNA and medical breakthroughs, and one point of view was immortality. There were the usual things thrown at it, like wanting a quality of life, not just an elongation of life. But I thought, if the great and the good could live... Sign in to see full entry.

Holiday!

This week I’m on holiday, and as usual there are so many things I’m supposed to be doing, and once again I can’t bring myself to do any of them. Of course I feel guilty about this, but on the other hand maybe not. I’ve made the decision not to spend a vast amount of traveling, as I would sooner spend it on my projects to get out of full time work, in a dead end job. That eases the pain of guilt about dashing about like a mad thing. I was going to give myself the gift of a flight in a light... Sign in to see full entry.

Armada from Space?

When I see any UFO story on Youtube or the main-stream media, they follow one path. They seem to think that Aliens are coming to Earth like the Spanish Armada did back in 1497. They would have us believe that when they come, they will behave rather like the European Imperial conquers did to any stone age society they came across. Mostly for slavery and pillage, but also to use them as a form of sport. Just because our history is too embarrassing to dwell on, does not mean Aliens will behave the... Sign in to see full entry.

Being Judged.

Over the last few weeks, I’ve tried to put together a map of what my life was and where it’s to go. There are a few pages entered before this one, which tell of important stages in my life, where I feel I have to give an account of myself. But I think it’s all working towards a more important thing. And that is to prove to the world that my life was a success and I did actually achieve the things I was supposed to. In other words, to stand and be judged. I often have a recurring dream about... Sign in to see full entry.
