Bahh, it is only the beggining of the week but i feel like it was the end of it… im tired, im sleepy…. how could a day of work let me like this??? damn it…

It is accumulating… i need vacation. I need to dedicate myself to blogging to stress out (yes, blogging keeps the stress away :)), to do projects that are left behind… if all goes well i will manage to do this in a couple of weeks….

Anyway, remember my post regarding Ian, that was selling is life? Well, it turns out that the selling value didn’t reach the values i expected but still, a decent amount was made - AU 399,300 USD. Some of the biggest bids were cancelled. You don’t imagine the amount of bids that were cancelled saying that made a mistake bidding… lol

Now, the auction has ended, and Ian walked out of his ex-house with only his wallet, the next step is ready to be made…. Guess what is it?

Have you checked it out? Crazy right? Total freedom. Hehe…

Good luck Ian!

Ok, it is the end of the month (it seems that time fly’s) and as usual i will show you the list of the top commentators. They benefit from some link juice from commenting and a link in all pages for being the top commentators, besides a mention in a post!

So ere are the top commentators for June:

• Agent 001 (20)
• Jim (6)
• BloggerOfTheWeb (6)
• Gadget (5)
• Nelson (5)

Keep commenting

Btw, this is a dofollow blog, some months ago i said i was considering taking out the dofollow from comments, and only let the top commentators as dofollow. And i have been thinking about it regularly, and it seems that bloggers are changing towards nofollow blogs

Again, im considering it, but considering it slowly…. :p

Im in the middle of my work, but things are a bit quiet for the moment and i decided to take a moment and write a review that is due for some time now.

Today’s post will be a review about thewwwblog, which was a prize i recently sponsored at thenetfool’s outrageous contest.

Thewwwblog is run by Chetan Bhawani a dental student in India. He has a series of well established sites that go from dental and health issues to SEO and money making.

Thewwwblog is half year age. It was created on December 25, 2007. Christmas time! Nice date to start a blog. Maybe to work as a talisman? Judging by his feed count (152) i would say things are going great for him!

This blog covers several issues like SEO, social bookmarking, blogging tips and has some interesting posts in the case studies category, like Digitalpoint forums - A money maker for webmasters

The blog is well organized and has interesting posts, easy to read, which is very important, up to date and regular posts.

As you can see for yourself this is an active blog, not because of what i have mention in the previous paragraph, but because of the number of comments in each post, although this is a nofollow blog (Which i don«’t consider a negative aspect).

Recently, Chetan changed to blog template, that im not very fond of… It is better than the previous one, but to gray for my taste. There are better options around.

Other thing i would change is the banner at the top of the blog, probably an ad would be a better idea. Also, the in text ads color from Kontera make the readability poor in some places. Dark blue with a dark gray background don’t match.

Yesterday i visited a site that shocked me a bit for a few seconds, but then i remember i have already seen more crazy ideas than this one. All of them lead to the wealth of the seller…

Ian Usher is simply selling his entire life! Ian says he had enough of his life and he doesn’t want it anymore!

This guy had a great life, but due to certain circumstances (his wife broke his heart) he decided to sell his house, his belongings, his friends and job! on Ebay!!!

This seem a bit drastic and crazy, but, oK, i agree with him. LIving in a house that was built to live a life with our love, and see that love go away would be most unbearable to keep living there…

This auction is gathering a lot of attention, and believe it or not there are currently 37 bids, with the top bid reaching the AU $315,100. The auction will last 4 days more, but im sure that this value can double, making Ian an original millionaire!

This is a case where a crazy idea could bring unexpected wealth, even if you tell it to your friends and they laugh until they cant breath. The most difficult part is to put it in practice, if we don’t try it, how will we know it doesn’t work?

Read more about ian or check is auction page.

Off Topic: IM very tired these days… The work is acumulating on the health center. I never stop, lots of treatments to do for the patients, and then when i arrive at home i have to work on photoshop…. im on zombie mode….

One of the most important aspects to consider when going on a web entrepeneur adventure is web hosting. If we know a trusted company because some friend of us recommended us (we know that word of mouth advertising is the best) then we don’t have any problem. But if we haven’t made a decision? But if we don’t know anything about hosting companies?

Usually it is a good way to search for top 10 best hosting companies. If we know what we need than this site is a good place to start.

Every blogger has a series of topics on how to start an online business, and i, for several reasons, don’t have any topic regarding this. I plan to change this in a near future. Off course i could just point you guys for any post already made by one of my blogger friends, but i want to give my own opinion and share my experience.

This is a news that i found very amusing.

Mozilla launched yesterday the firefox version 3. They planned to beat the world record on downloads made in 24hours. They called it the D Day (Download day).

They have registered more than 8 million downloads in 24h! The Guinness records team is reviewing the data and will announce the decision in a few days. I’m sure the verdict will be favourable

Regarding the release of firefox 3, the Internet Explorer team decided to congratulate the Mozilla team with a cake.

This shows tremendous fair play from the IE team, and the cake amused all Mozilla staff. Great sense of Humour! hehe

It seems that the IE team did the same gesture when firefox 2 was release, and they wanted to make it a tradition.

You can read the post from Al Billings, a QA Engineer at the Mozilla corporation and he was there when Sean from Microsoft came to deliver the cake.

As for the software, my first impressions are good. So far my browsing is smooth, firefox doesn’t lag my pc, although it is still a RAM eater!The graphic aspect is a bit different but for the better. The only problem i have found so far are the plugins compatibility. Some that i use aren’t firefox 3 compatible…
