What a great place to share :) Here you will find flashes of brilliance caught for all the world to enjoy. .. Actually, these are brief articles describing how I fixed a problem. Every day, I find information online that helps me solve a mystery. So this is me giving back to the community. Thanks for stopping by.. and don't forget to tell your friends!
Make money while you sleep!
I just signed up for somthing called
Gomez PEER and am currently waiting for approval before my computer earns money "while I sleep" as they say. Hopefully, this will pan out better than the survey scams, but since I didn't find anything bad on Google about this program (and since it's
free!! ), I'm giving it a shot.
Below are a few banners if you would like to try it with me. If it doesn't work out, I'll remove it from here (or give a scathing follow-up!).
After registering, I noticed a request for Most Wanted participants with dial up service in these locations:
Korea
Mexico
Netherlands
Singapore
United Kingdom

So far the thingy reports 4 cents earned! I did notice, however, the java module appears to be hogging about 50meg of system memory. This is not a big deal, but it does appear to slow down my system a little. As a fix, I set the program to launch at 1am and just close it when I suspect I would like to use those resources myself. If I ever get around to upgrading this PC, I may leave it running all the time. Another option would be to run it on a different (or multiple) computers, but I am still waiting to see how well the thing pays after being "approved" by the man! :)
Day two and I'm using two PCs full time and one PC most of the time. Total 10 cents after about a day and a half. By the way, I'm still in Pending status.
Seventeen cents ! and still pending approval.

(had to check "agree" to terms of service .. seems like i already did that though)
Tonight I noticed for the first time, my little Gomez annoyance is showing me as "active" which means that after many months of running this silly thing, they've finally approved me for earning real money. (11 cents so far!!)
Sound the horn baby !! Cash money in my pocket :) .. finally, after over a year of accumulated earnings, I've received a healthy payout of $7.34 !!
