I have stopped using Firefox for a long time already. I normally use Chrome or Safari.


I think I have used Firefox with the annoying green juice marker for pageranks for several months.


This evening, I was using another computer which has only Firefox. And I discovered the pageranks came marching home. All three blogs of mine which were demoted to pagerank zero finally get back a PR3/10 eventhough I did nothing to the blogs.


The lesson I learnt it, if you stop the obssession over pagerank, the world still goes around. We don’t die or something.


Oh, I am not talking about this blog but some other blogs. So long as I sell links on the inner pages, Google will deny me of the green juice.

This post is for those who haven’t discovered the power of Twitter and Facebook.


<!-- Facebook Badge START -->Chan LilianCreate Your Badge<!-- Facebook Badge END -->


If you haven’t signed up with Twitter or Facebook and yet, hope to make money online blogging, please do so now.


I joined Twitter like two years ago when it was first introduced. However, I never make use of them until recently when I can use Wordpress plugin and Tweetdeck to make life easier. One little line on Tweetdeck and my Facebook account and even my blog is updated.


The best thing about Tweetdeck is how easy it is to manage keywords I am tracking. I shall not go into details because it is not difficult to manage it.


Tweetdeck is easily installed to your PC and you can track keywords that come up real time. For example, if I am stalking a certain personality, like myself hehehe, I just need to put the search word 5xmom. Anyone who talks about me will immediately showed up on my Tweetdeck panel. This is a little bit of how Technorati works but it is instant.


So, sometimes people freaked out how I know about certain things so fast. That’s my secret.


As for Facebook, if you are a sourpuss who join and try to spam people with your make money ideas, you won’t get very popular. But still it is fun to get connected and be informed. For example, I have Problogger, Darren Rowse as my Facebook ‘friend’ and I know what latest post he has just updated.


With Wordpress plugins and all the various social media sites and including Youtube, it is really easy to build the network. My Twitter account is this, http://twitter.com/5xmom.

Oh, my hubby tie is placed there cos I am too lazy to pixelate out the address using computer software.


So, how’s your income from Nuffnang? Are you still making money? Have you signed up for Churp-Churp dot com? I don’t know exactly how it works, how much it pays etc but I had signed up and was suppose to tweet something.


Oh ya, if you are a making money blogger and you still don’t have a Twitter account, then, you are missing out a lot. Don’t live in the dinosaur age, go get a Twitter account already! RSS is like so yesterday already.


You may ask, “Do I get that much money from Nuffnang every month?” Well…lucky no. Cos if it is, then, I have to pay income tax, a lot! I just cashed out another RM2K just now. So, maybe it is not a monthly thing but a little bit longer than that.

It has been a while since I bother to check my blog stats. I have been busy with citizen journalism and especially video journalism. Sometimes, I have to spend four to five hours on location just to wait for something to take place.


It is not rewarding in terms of monetary wise but the satisfaction is knowing that I have been able to report news as they happened. So many times, I have noticed how some mainstream media tend to ‘miss out’ certain parts in their reporting.


Right now, I am busy following through with some eviction issue that has taken so many twists and turns. I want to see a closure before I can finally reduce my involvement in citizen journalism.



To those of you who do not read my personal blog, maybe I should share what citizen journalism is. It is part of the new media whereby citizens like me report news based on journalism ethics. The above video is an exclusive interview I had with the Chief Minister of Penang on his thoughts on citizen journalism.



Now, what about P1 Wimax? Well, apparently, the speed at my place suxs. I blogged about it and didn’t think too much about that post. I just discovered that my post is now on the first page of Google. Not good….not good at all…..muahahar….It’s not my fault, ok? Google just lurveeeeee me!

I have just withdrawn USD500 from Paypal. Phew….at least I still have money to withdraw. Lately, my income drops because I have blogged less. The interest to make money blogging seems to take second place nowadays. Maybe it is because my income is more a buffer than the main one so it doesn’t really matter if I am making money or not.


The funny thing about being a full-time blogger who makes money is the lack of respect I get. Or at the other extreme, the kind of ‘I want to leech on you’ kind of interest. Sometimes, I know I am making more than those people who looked with disdain or disbelief when I say I make money blogging. They give me that, “HUH? Don’t try to bullshit. How many pennies can you make from those ads?”


People just don’t believe that we can make money from blogging. I wonder how those professionals who make a living out of online work feel? For me, it doesn’t matter because I am not exactly a full-time blogger as I didn’t sacrifice a ‘real profession’ to stay at home making money. But I would feel terribly discouraged if I am to tell the world I am a full-time blogger because no one believes. They probably think we are ‘good for nothing, too lazy to find a proper job, too stupid to make it in the corporate world, must be some scammer at work’ kind of citizens.


Anyway, I am still on my sabbath and did not really keep up with the latest development in make money blogging. In fact, I almost getting too lazy. Yesterday, I tried changing my personal blog theme but midway, I dropped the idea because I suddenly realised I don’t care about SEO optimised, good ads positioning or care about inserting tracking codes etc. Looking at PHP codes suddenly become too tedious and mind numbing for me.


I wonder what will happen to me in another month or two but never mind…I shall place my trust in God. If I need the money, I will work hard and earn more. If not, I will enjoy doing other things. BTW, did you listen to Darren Rowse’s sharing about the Christian’s faith? I was like, ‘Oh wow…the problogger talking Jesus is just so glorious. It is nice to know that he is not only a blogger but a God loving man. God bless him.
