Will Forex Trading Become The Next Big Thing

Having heard quite a lot about Forex at the recent Amsterdam Affiliate Conference, I decided to do my homework. At first I thought about the opportunity of becoming a forex affiliate, a great plan given the growth market, international popularity and insane lifetime values.

However as I began to learn forex the various platforms and educated myself on the subject, I soon found that I could make more money than I lost.

I recon over the next few months I'll begin posting more about the Forex Trading market and my experience with it.

Why Had To Buy an Asus EeePC

Just a few thoughts....

I've just got myself a white Asus EeePC, and it's the sexiest piece of kit I've bought in years. So sexy, that I'd say, it turns more heads that the new MacBook Air. It's all about portability baby.

Before i get into the tech spec or nuances of this machine, I've gotta add, that I'm writing this review on my White 4G EeePC, and although at first I struggled a little with the tiny keyboard, I've since got used to it... especially the close proximity of the up arrow key and the right shift key.

I'm running a test for battery life under 'normal' intensive usage – from a full charge with WIFI permanently on, having had a 10 minute Skype audio video call and watched several YouTube clips with audio, my EeePC still has one bar of battery left and it's been running for 2:27.

I've got my EeePC slightly pimped out with KDE desktop which is perfect for my use and doesn't affect performance noticeably.

So here's why I simply had to buy this beautiful, elegant machine....

I'm flying to Goa on Saturday and the EeePC's Web cam, Wifi and shock-proof solid-state hard drive is perfect for my needs. I'll be blogging from the beach – stay tuned.

Facebump.com - A New Digg Clone For All Things Facebook

Facebump.com - a Digg style social news site for all things Facebook. This Facebook social news site aims to leverage the wisdom of crowds and find plenty of hot Facebook news. It's early days for the project so please be patient.

It struck me that there were so many emerging Facebook blogs that were becoming impossible to track, so a social filter was required to pick the most important news items from all the information.

Cover of a Remix.. Last Rhythm - Sylvie Carter Mix (Superdove 2007)

Let me tell you about this Last Rhythm (cover of a remix)..... Apologies for the tardiness of this release, but my laptop crashed, I've reinstalled windows, lost all my software and the original masters are with Steve Cooper in the studio.

Well, it's been fu^&ing years in production so a few more days won't matter. When Steve first said "You can't cover Last Rhythm, it's a classic" I had to take on the challenge.

Anyway, it's due to be e-mailed to me this week. So it'll be made available to Facebook and Twitter friends this week.

Remember, it's a cover of a remix. So I'm not entirely sure of the legal implications. ;) With any luck, my heros Last Rhythm - who wrote and produced the track by the same name "Last Rhythm" might get in touch if they hear about it.. that would be so cool.

Squidoo Slapped by Google - Now it Doesn't Flow Pagerank

In a previous post I mentioned how Squidoo was fast becoming a spammers paradise.

The ability to tag lenses in a single click is also an inspired move. The downside is that squidoo is fast becoming a spammer's paradise. I only hope Google don't set Domain_Flow_PageRank=Null. ;)
Well.. Jason Calcanis has caused enough bad press for Matt Cutts to give the order to set the Domain_Flow_Pagerank=Null.

Search Engine Land have the full story here including a timeline.

While my own lenses are still ranking. My blog which used to Rank 12th for my name "Paul Reilly" and was given a boost to 6th for the same query, following the addition of a link in my Squidoo profile.

Since Squidoo got slapped my blog is back in 12th place and my lenses still rank...

This suggests that Pagerank can be passed internally or inwardly, but not outwardly. So if you're using Squidoo for affiliate business, you'll need to tag your pages well and focus on hyper-niche terms - with a single focus per lens.
