6) Play the online virtual games, e.g. Second Life to earn virtual currency that can be converted to the US dollar.

Second Life - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quote:

Second Life (abbreviated as SL) is an Internet-based virtual world which came to international attention via mainstream news media in late 2006 and early 2007.[4][5] Developed by Linden Lab (USA), a downloadable client program enables its users, called "Residents", to interact with each other through motional avatars, providing an advanced level of a social network service combined with general aspects of a metaverse. Residents can explore, meet other Residents, socialize, participate in individual and group activities, create and trade items (virtual property) and services from one another.

Second Life's virtual currency is the Linden Dollar (Linden, or L$) and is exchangeable for US Dollars in a marketplace consisting of residents, Linden Lab and real life companies.

Second Life has its own economy and a currency referred to as Linden Dollars (L$). Though the exchange rate fluctuates, as of February 2007 it is reasonably stable at around L$ 270 to one US dollar.[21]

REAL BUCKS
The avatar named Anshe Chung may be a computerized chimera, but the company she represents is far from imaginary. Second Life participants pay "Linden dollars," the game's currency, to rent or buy virtual homesteads from Chung so they have a place to build and show off their creations. But players can convert that play money into U.S. dollars, at about 300 to the real dollar, by using their credit card at online currency exchanges. Chung's firm now has (INSIDE THE GAME - SECOND LIFE) virtual land and currency holdings worth about $250,000 in real U.S. greenbacks. To handle rampant growth, she just opened a 10-person studio and office in Wuhan, China (TO PLAY THE GAME, LIKE RUNNING THE VIRTUAL BUSINESS IN THE VIRTUAL LIFE). Says Chung's owner, who prefers to keep her real name private to deter real-life intrusions: "This virtual role-playing economy is so strong that it now has to import skill and services from the real-world economy."

Penang a pirated DVD haven
By DAVID TAN

BUTTERWORTH: Penang has been identified as an active centre with 70% of online sales of pirated DVDs in the country having been traced to the state.

Motion Picture Association (MPA) country manager Nor Hayati Yahaya said yesterday 200 to 300 parcels containing pirated DVDs, worth about RM45,000 are seized daily at the KL International Airport.

She said the export unit of the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs division had made the discovery through screening parcels.

The MPA, headquartered in Hollywood, represents about 70% of movie companies in the USA. Its role in the country is to assist government agencies in combating disc piracy.

CAUGHT IT: Lau (centre) and Guna (right) viewing the fibre optic scanner at the Bagan Dalam Post Office in Butterworth, Penang. Lau said that between January and November pirated discs worth about RM7.4mil were seized.
According to Nor Hayati, about 70% of the total mailed by pirated DVD sellers customers overseas originate from Penang. The popular destinations are to European countries, the US, Australia, and New Zealand.

“The pirated DVDs are sold via web portals on the Internet,” she said, adding that each pirated disc was sold at RM60, inclusive of shipping charges.

Nor Hayati was speaking after the launch of the Stop Export Piracy programme at the Pos Malaysia mail-processing centre in Bagan Dalam by State Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs committee chairman Lau Chiek Tuan.

Lau, later, launched a scanning machine costing RM80,000 at the centre for use in detecting pirated DVDs packed in parcels.

The scanning machine is donated by the MPA and other film, music, and software industries in the country.

Meanwhile, State Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs enforcement director Guna Selan Marian said there were no specific data to confirm whether the bulk of pirated DVDs sent overseas came from Penang.

“However, we can say that a large number of the cases we are investigating involving online sales of DVDs come from Penang,” he said.

Earlier, in his speech, Lau said the state domestic trade and consumer affairs had between January and November seized pirated discs worth about RM7.4mil.

Lau said in 2004 and 2005, the country was known in the world as a primary exporter of pirated DVDs.

“Through the anti-piracy efforts of the Government, we are now no longer ranked number one as an exporter of pirated DVDs,” he said.

Pirates offer home delivery

PENANG: Certain pirated DVD and VCD retailers are offering free home delivery to customers following the state Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry enforcement unit's constant raids on their shops.

Unit chief M. Guna Selan said these retailers were finding it hard to sell the pirated items with enforcement officers based in "hot spots" such as Prangin Mall from 10am to 10pm daily.

He said the dealers were now offering to send the requested DVDs or VCDs to customers at no extra cost.

"We are closely monitoring their activities and will act against them," he said, adding that officers were also stationed along the Batu Feringghi tourist belt, which is a popular place for illegal DVD and VCD traders.

"To evade the authorities, these retailers only display the covers of movies but not the actual discs. If a customer wants a particular movie, he has to wait for a 'runner' to pick up the DVD or VCD from a hidden spot nearby.

"Teams are also being sent out nightly to nab the roadside retailers," he added.

No Pirated Software in Low Yat Plaza
Filed in: Technology, Malaysia — March 17th, 2007

When I went to Together Gather Blogger Party, I also visited Low Yat Plaza with my younger brother. We discovered that there is no more pirated software selling in Low Yat Plaza.

There were a few of pirated software shops in Low Yat Plaza. All of them were closed down and replaced by new shops when we visited. The new shops were selling some computer accessories. We cannot get pirated software in Low Yat Plaza anymore.

Now, where can I buy genuine software? I do not see any software shop…

all answers is full of crap. Nothing is useful.

i teach you how to make money from adsense easily. Want more you need to build a lot for this kind of site. 100 or more site like this to get more income from adsense.

Let's begin right now.

1- find what niche you want to build and get money from adsense. choose niche that lot of advertisers competing each other in adwords. More than 20 advertiser bid for those keyword is good. I give you one example is "ladder". Average cpm is around $1.00 to $10.00 and more than 15 advertiser bid around ladder keyword.

2- go to Free Keyword Suggestion Tool from Wordtracker and enter the word "ladder". We try to find what keyword that people has search for the word ladder.

3- Take those keyword and enter those keyword in Google,Yahoo and msn to look for how many website has appeared for those keyword in search engine.
We try to target those keyword that has many searches per month and low competition in search engine so easily for us to rank well in search engine.

Not more than 500,000 website appeared in Google is good.

I'd done for you. Below are keywords that we want to build website that has great searches per month and low competition in search engine.

- shelf ladder
- attic ladder
- rope ladder
- extension ladder
- bookcase ladder

4- create your page around those 5 keywords. Write your content about it and put adsense on those page. So your website has 5 pages only. Put your keyword in title, H1 and a little bit in your content and save it using your keyword like book-ladder.html.

Why not more? Cause is easy for you to handle that website in term of promoting it and you can build a lot for another high paying adsense keyword.

5 Upload your website and is ready to promote.
Tag and ping or bookmark your 5 pages with social bookmark. More bookmark is better. Bookmark with digg, delicious, technorati and so on with your targetted keyword. Do this for every pages.

Submit your website for any directory site that accept free url submission.

Create 5 to 10 articles and submitted to all major article directories. Each article must have your own author resources that link back to your 5 pages website. All link must use your anchor text for every keyword your targetted.

E.g. This is your articles.....bla blamm

Your author resources look like this:

Mike Moron is provide tips and review on how to install bookcase ladder in your library.

join any link exchange directory and exchange link with suitable website that has same theme with your site. If your site is about ladder you can exchange link with another site that same theme your site, maybe home improvement site. Do not exchange link with website that is not same theme with you, for example computer or dating.

All is done. Build another niche using this system. hopefully you will make at least $ 5-$10 per day from adsense. Majority of your traffic will come from MSN than Yahoo. don't hope for Google yet. It;s take time.

Try this and hopefully you can make money from adsense.
