Ed Dale has a new podcast on the Thirty Day Challenge, which as always is worth a listen too. I’m just back from the gym where I was listening to Ed’s dulcet tones
Some good advice as usual – he talks about how increasing your typing speed to improve productivity, and I certainly find [...]

Ken McCarthy’s System Seminar
January 28th, 2008 · Comments Off
Although I’ve never been to the System Seminar I have been meaning to for a few years, but feel pretty disinclined these days as it would mean a flight to London and all the security hassle that involves followed by a flight to Chicago and all the security and immigration hassle there too. In short, [...]

Setting the record straight – Stompernet and Scribd
January 23rd, 2008 · Comments Off
I noticed on another blog a post from Jason Bentley at scribd. To set the record straight he confirmed that the Stompernet video was not the reason for pulling links from scribd, but that an increase in spam in December and over the holiday period had prompted their action.
He also says that responsible marketers will [...]

Stompernet v Telefonica: who sucks more?
January 19th, 2008 · Comments Off
The other day I blogged about how Telefonica sucks due to the abuse of their monopoly. I also blogged about Stompernet spoiling the ride for many internet marketers, which Andy Jenkins took exception to, but it has drawn some negative comments in Immediate Edge and at least one internet marketer who is a member of [...]

Insomnia
January 18th, 2008 · Comments Off
Tuesday night I didn’t sleep well. I’m at home on my own with the cats for company, and so maybe it was them disturbing me – I really can’t remember. Last night I kept being woken by one of the cats, so decided to get up and work for a bit. I went back to [...]

Stompernet Sucks too: scribd demolished
January 17th, 2008 · 5 Comments
Earlier today I found that links in my documents published on www.scribd.com no longer worked. That creates a bit of a problem since I’ve been using scribd to test new niches for the last few months. Scribd documents get ranked really fast, so it was great to be able to rank and get orders within [...]

Black 332 Bakelite Telephone
Originally uploaded by Old Telephones
At the end of last year my parents, who live on the Costa Brava, decided to take the plunge and subscribe to ADSL. They’ve been signed up to Direct Telecom for a few years ago, mainly because they have fantastically cheap calls and my sister lives in [...]
Xmas edition of the Immediate Edge newsletter – part 1
January 10th, 2008 · Comments Off
I got home last night to find the latest Immediate Edge newsletter – or at least half of it – available for download.
Although it’s a bit later than planned this 23 page newsletter has a couple of great strategies for making money online fast. It won’t get you earning big bucks, but never forget that [...]

Cyberspace and the nature of existence
January 5th, 2008 · Comments Off
Last year I finally got around to reading some books that I should have read years ago. One of those was Neuromancer by cyberpunk novelist William Gibson, and I recently bought the two sequels, Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive.
The prose is pretty dense and so they’re not exactly for the fainthearted, but great reads [...]
No email, now no Digg
January 3rd, 2008 · Comments Off
Well, I’m back. And it’s an interesting start to the year.
First I forgot to renew one of my domains. The website isn’t important to me any more as it has had a Google penalty for around 18 months, but almost all my email goes through this domain as I’ve used it since 1999.
First of all [...]
