How Overhyping Killed KDE 4

I was browsing around Digg as I normally do an noticed KDE 4 point blah blah came out recently. KDE 4 I remember when it was first being developed and the buzz was crazyness. My question is what happened, it seems to me that it came out and no one really cared. I think KDE 4 was extremely over hyped and was so built up on being so new and innovative but just died; why?

Spiral Frog Free Unlimited Music

If you never have heard of Spiral Frog, it is a website for downloading free music from real famous artists. Before I go into any more details let me first say Spiral Frog is unfortunately incompatible with the two best operating systems, Linux and Mac……So if you do not have xp or the dreaded Vista then stop reading because you may become envious….

Back to Spiral Frog. Like I said its a website for downloading music. Its kind of like Itunes but you don’t have to pay….Well I won’t go that far to say its like Itunes because I should say before I give you all its pluses that there are some restrictions. It is free unlimited music with a catch.

There are a couple of catches actually but if you can deal with them, Spiral Frog will be the next best thing for you since sliced bread. I would say since Linux but hey Linux users cant use this…… Basically all the music downloaded from Spiral frog is paid for through advertising on the Spiral frog Website, so the Goal of Spiral Frog is to get you to visit there website as much as possible, them more traffic the more money they can pay to artists is the name of the game. So one way to get you to keep coming back is that you have to keep your membership active by “renewing” it. Basicaly two numbers are important to Spiral Frog users and those are 30 and 60. After 30 days of not renewing your membership you will not be aloud to download anymore music, and after 60 days your music that you have downloaded will no longer play. Basically to renew you have to go back and click a button it seem, so that snot all that bad. All you got to do is check a website about once a month for free music….I don’t know about you but I got no problem with that!

Another catch is that you can only download one song at a time, which isn’t to horrible, but the real pain is that if you are downloading multiple songs. You can not just make a list of songs for it to automatically download. After each song downloads you have to go back to the website and click, “Download Next Song”. This I guess is another attempt to keep you going back to their website.

Lastly Spiral Frog obviously doesn’t have every song ever created for you to download, which is a little disappointing…I have a pretty broad musical taste and it seems for me that its a coin flip weather they have a particular artist I want to download, so I take it as it comes.

I personally Do not have any major problems with the limitations on the music because you know what I doubt there will ever be a time where I am offline for 60 straight days…. Spiral frog I feel is going to becoem my new best freind, I am populating my computer with music as I type this,

What options do you need to look for when choosing a free file hosting website

Online file hosting is a new fad. People use online file hosting websites to host images for there own website, to share files, to back up files, or just for transferring files from one computer to another. Online file hosting can make life managing files very convenient if you can find a file hosting website that fits your needs……

Trying a Paid to Click Website

It seems like most websites online about making money are full of crap and fake etc…I stumbled on One called Bux.to. I signed up and am going to give it a try and see If I can actually make any significant amount of money. Along the way I plan on reporting everything on here, the ups and the downs. IF it really works or if its a scam. I will post pictures of everything,g from me requesting payment, to me cashing out my check etc..

Here is how bux.to seems to work. You get paid 1 cent for every ad you click. You get about 10 ads per day, so thats 10 cents a day. When you click on an ad you have to wait 30 seconds before you can click on the next one. The real kicker is that every person you refer will earn you 1 cent per every ad they click. So basically if you get a decent amount of referrals you could make a decent amount of money that could keep you going.

It has a clean interface unlike a lot of make money online websites that I have seen. So it is pleasant to keep going back to click on ads. If you would like to help me out in testing this, please sign up as one of my referrals here.

I will be keeping you all posted along the way, and also I have some thoughts on their business model I will also share with you all.

I guesse you could say I am desperate for that flickr pro account….lol

Update: bux.to is a scam read this post here. (Sorry)
