Google starts offering Adsense payment via Western Union (not in all countries mind).

BOTW.org are giving away $10,000, to enter just enter the promo code when submitting, winner will be picked by Shoemoney.

On the subject of give-aways, ProBlogger has $54,000 worth of prizes on offer at the moment. Happy Birthday ProBlogger and Darren also explains why Problogger no longer uses Adsense.

I came across this video about ‘are paid links bad?’.

Jim Westergren sells SEO Fusion for $157,700, very nice!

Today’s addictive game is Fun Copter an old one but a good ‘un, my record is 1601. If that is too simple (but fun) for you try Jelly Battle.

Just a tad Garry, I think all the social boom sites get overvalued but then again maybe I’m just jelous ;)

The day that Google starts offering AdSense Payment via PayPal will make a lot of people happy. But I guess WU is a step in the right direction anyhow.

Paypal would be a boost but unlikely to happen I would guess seeing as paypal fill a space that Google may want to develop into.

Dang! BOTW contest only for US citizens.

Anyway, thanks for the link since the %15 discount still applies to everyone.

that Microsoft takeover is mad.

i am really annoyed about missing it on problogger’s free blog listing. :S

That fine is mad too. They have no way of proving she did it. And if she did do you really believe she cause that much damage? It’s mad I tell you.
