Driving at its best

This video is from the John Chow collections. Remember the movie The Fast and The Furious Tokyo Drift? OK, you probably don’t because it’s a very forgetful movie. Well, the drifting in Tokyo has got nothing on the display of driving skills being put on by Ken Block in this Gymkhana Two video. That is simply some of the most amazing driving I have ever seen.
Judging by all the skid marks on the Port of Los Angeles (where the video was filmed), I doubt this was done in one take. I’m sure they went though several sets of tires and maybe a clutch or two. Still, it’s one hell an amazing piece of driving. If offered an opportunity, I’m not sure I would want to be Ken’s passenger. To get the best view, watch the video in HD.

Superbowl porn video is disturbing

Comcast subscribers in Arizona must have the shock of their lives when a Superbowl porn video appeared out of nowhere towards the end of the Superbowl 2009 game. Oh my gully!

I have seen the Superbowl porn video! It really is porn but not hardcore! I am not posting the video here but only provide you with the link. Please if you are at work, the video is NSFW. The pornographic film shows a lady unzipping a man's jeans and exposing his meat, alright his Superbowl penis.

Comcast is a major cable company and must explain this to all disgusted viewers. Something like this to happen in a Superbowl game when all the kids gather around the TV sets is so dismaying.

The super bowl porn clip interruption happened just after the last touchdown by the Arizona Cardinals, who lost the match to the Pittsburgh Steelers.




UPDATE: Comcast just released this statement: "We are mortified by last evening's Super Bowl interruption and we apologize to our customers. Our initial investigation suggests this was an isolated malicious act. We are conducting a thorough investigation to determine who was behind this."

Who is the world's greatest business mind?

Who is the The World’s Greatest Business Mind? Steve Jobs, Warren Buffett, George Soros, Bill Gates, or that kid who invented facebook. Watch the video and find out.

How Whopperfreakout video made $25,000 in a month

I am sure you have seen the ad on whopperfreakout.com that shows how people would react if Burger King stopped selling Whoppers. This site drew 250,000 unique visitors in December and has had over 1.5 million video views since being posted. Assuming a page eCPM of $100 or 10 cents per view, this site has made approximately $25,000 in a month.

This means for every 1000 page views, whopperfreakout.com made over $100, or 10 cents per view. How much would your blog be making if you made $100 for every 1000 page views ?

Here is the ad in case you haven't seen it before

Position your Adsense ad units for maximum earnings

Just like Bikini positioning makes a difference, positioning your adsense ad units properly can make a huge difference in the amount of money you make. For example if I place ads below the fold on the front page is not a very good place to display ads and I should expect a low click through rate. If I place ad units in the side menu that may get a better click through rate but, still my readers have to scan that area of the page to find something they may be interested in clicking on. Finally If I place my ad units within an article using the CSS styling the readers eyes will naturally scan the ads as they are reading the article. Here is the CSS code I use to create my floating styles:

. alignleft {
text-align: left;
float: left;
margin-right: 8px;
margin-top: 5px;
}

. alignright {
text-align: right;
float: right;
margin-top: 5px;
margin-left: 8px;
}

One word of caution and that is to always read and keep up on Adsense terms of service to avoid a violation which could cost you dearly.

Make money using AdSense for Audio

AdSense for Audio is an automated way for radio stations to supplement their existing revenue streams by making their inventory available to thousands of new advertisers that aren't easily accessible today.

Some innovative ways to deploy podcast tech and make money using AdSense for Audio

1. Simple automated podcast advertising based on keywords
2. Podcast downloads to mobile phones, wrapped in mobile contextual ads
3. Podcast search and download (maybe bolstering this page in part)
4. Podcast delivery via Gmail, Google Talk, Google Desktop, or another product (I say this because Talk offers voice chat, and it's no a big leap to use the audio player for podcasts. Gmail also allows you to stream MP3s right in the Gmail interface.).
5. Podcast streaming through Google Video (the MP3 player is Google Video technology).

Make money using Facebook apps

Facebook is now the rage among many of my friends (both hearing and deaf). One very neat feature of Facebook that puts it heads and shoulders over other similar networking websites is the ability to add widgets and features to your Facebook pages.

Now you can add TokBox widget that adds even more functionality to your Facebook profile. With TokBox’s widget, you can chat with others via video directly from your (or your friend’s) Facebook profile.

You can leverage my post on video units to even earn some good amount of money by adding this application to your Facebook profile.

Drive traffic with MySpace large-sized accounts

Nowadays, it’s very easy to come across a MySpace account that has 10,000+ friends.

Most people don’t realize the potential that having 10,000 friends brings.

If you can, place movies on your profile, people watch them.

Place links underneath and around the movie so that visitors can follow through and watch similar things.

Usually a very funny video well-placed on a profile can drive some great traffic to video related sites.

Titles like “Check out this video” may bring results but why not something sounding more immediate like “this video changed my life” or something clever that people would want to read into.

If you run a blog, utilize MySpace’s blog to post the same blog.

Note that its advisable to link to a Read More.. kind-of-thing at the bottom.

Lots of people click on those MySpace blogs and if you get an interested reader, they may become readers of your blog.
