If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or the No-Hype, No-BS, No Spam MAT newsletter.. Thanks for visiting!

mySpace CrosspostYesturday I reported that I just got onto twitter and I wanted to get a plugin that would update twitter every time I update this blog with new information.  Follow me on twitter.

Well, while looking for a twitter plugin that do this for me I run into another wordpress plugin for MySpace..  Let me tell you right off the back.. I am not a MySpace guy.  I just put up a mySpace page but I have not found out how to use it or even populate it as of yet.  I don’t even have any friends..  :-(   Would you like to be friends with me? 

Anyways..  I wanted a way to update my myspace page with my blog post..  Another way to promote this site and hopefully bring in the myspace traffic..  So, I run into this myspace crossposting plugin..  It is pretty neat..  Every time I update this blog with new post it creates a post blog post on my myspace page. 

Very simple…  A way to target mySpace and get more traffic..  I hope this helps you..

How To Make $30 Dollars Per Month - Case Study Introduction

45n5.com had a pretty good video a couple of days ago that provided ideas on how to make $30 dollars per month.    So, I decided to piggy back on the idea and test out each of the idea.  If you have not seen the video take a look at it now..

So, I suspect that I will be taking this experiment for the rest of the year.  I will document each step with each new idea.  So, come back regularily to see what progress I have made.

I am really excited about this project because there are ideas that I have not done before, but I always wanted to do..  For example, I always wanted to create a small book and sell it on eBay.  I had a few ideas but I have not followed through with the ideas.  This will give me a chance to experiment and see if it could really be done. 

So with experiment will I do first.  If you have any comments or if you have a preference as to which to do first drop me a comment and I will look into it.

New Experiment - Case Study DFOS

I have always been intregued about wordpress mainly because I am a programmer at heart and this has mainly been how I have made my living.  So, I love to experiement and my latest experiment has been with one of my fashion websites: DFSO - Designer Fashion Shopping Online.  I have to tell you this was one of my first websites and the design and content was terrible. 

Well, know I am working to turn it around and use wordpress as the content management system.  I didn’t want this  website to be another blog that need to be updated daily. But I did want a way to be able to enter new material without spending an hour messing around with the website template.  I also wanted to take advantage of RSS and sitemaps.  This kind of setup will allow me to take advantage of both. 

This is my first experiment using this technology this way and if successful, I hope to use it on other ideas that I have.  To see it in action go to my DFOS site.
