Get The Right Training



I had many, about 4 (and more than 2 is many), training courses before related to web development and computer programming. I did complete all those 4 training courses and I can say that I'm knowledgeable about the topics covered in those training courses. I can't say that I mastered all of it because there are some topics I don't like and need some refreshing to do and there is this one course that I didn't learn that much or didn't learn what I expected to learn because of the instructor but overall, I had a great time taking those training courses.

Training courses are sometimes not really required in a job but taking these training courses could be an advantage. There are many training courses offered everywhere and there are websites like Avand that can help you and your company find training courses in your area. Some of their popular courses are Sales Training, Plumbing Training, and Management Training. If the course you're looking for are not in their list, you can contact them discuss the courses that your company will need so that they could add it to their list. Check out their website if you have the time. Good luck!

I signed up for PPP!

I signed up for PayPerPost last month and my blog or should I say this blog got approved for Marketplace Opportunities just 8 days ago. This blog was not approved immediately for Marketplace Opportunities because it does not meet the specific requirements that is indicated in their Terms of Service. Fortunately, PayPerPost updated their Terms of Service and made some changes to it like bringing down the minimum blog age to 30 days with at least 10 pre-existing posts from 90 days with at least 20 pre-existing posts. I just started making posts again on this blog just this January 2008 and making 20 posts of original content is not that easy. So, thanks to that change in their Terms of Service! Haha! :D

I learned about PayPerPost just last month when I'm searching for paid-to-blog services. I have read many testimonials about PayPerPost, about how it can help you monetize your blog and generate extra income if you're a blogger and create buzz and promote your product or services if you're an advertiser. I also read that PayPerPost strictly implements word of mouth ethics and I like that because it informs the audience of the blog of the connection of a certain post with the blog. Having read all of that testimonials and making sure that its not a scam or something, I signed up for PayPerPost.

This is the first Opp that I took and I know this will also be your first when you join PayPerPost because this post is like the welcome Opp when you're approved for the Marketplace Opportunity and it pays a nice amount of money, hehe! I will earn a$20 just for this post, isn't that a nice extra income for just a single post, haha! :D

the one with Google AdSense's Updated Terms and Conditions

I've been wondering what are the changes that Google AdSense made into the updated terms and conditions ever since I saw that Google AdSense Online Standard Terms and Conditions Accept Contract page. I don't want to read it all because its so lengthy, the deadline for accepting it is until May 25, 2008, I just want to take a quick look at my account and I just don't have the time to read it all that time.

Luckily, I remembered today that Google AdSense has a blog, Inside AdSense, so I checked it out hoping to find out some information about this matter. There's a post there entitled "Updated Terms and Conditions". The post says that most of the changes to the Terms and Conditions fall into two broad categories. The first category is future products and features and the second category is privacy requirements. The post also says that the changes are not limited to those two categories because they also made small changes throughout the Terms and Conditions so it's a good idea to review them thoroughly before accepting.

I think I'll just have to read it all sometime. There's a "Remind me the next time I log in" option that I use now but I know I'll choose the "Yes, I have read and accept the above Terms and Conditions" option anyway in the future because if I choose the "No, I do not accept the above Terms and Conditions" option now, I will not be able to continue using AdSense until May 25, 2008 and who wouldn't want to accept it? We all love our AdSense, right? Hehe! :D
