This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Sponsored Tweets. All opinions are 100% mine.

I have blogged about get paid to tweet programs and my recommendations, but I probably should blog about the one I like the best: Sponsored Tweets. Yes, this is a sponsored post, but out of all the paid to tweet sites I have tried out, I can comfortably say this is the best one. It is fair and full disclosure is required on every tweet. Full disclosure can be as simple as putting #ad at the end or within your sponsored tweet. Sponsored Tweets also allows users the option of writing their own tweets based on their sponsors.

You can sign up for sponsored tweets. It is really easy. Just put in your twitter username and basically they (Sponsored Tweets) gather your Twitter stats with their API. Although Sponsored Twitters allows you to set your own price, they have a suggested price which is based on your involvement on Twitter. You can also set the keywords to topics you like to tweet about which will help advertisers find Sponsored Tweeters that will best suit their product.

Sponsored Tweets does payout when you reach $50. I can vouch for this as I have a Sponsored Tweets account and have reached payout several times in the past two months.

Have you tried Sponsored Tweets? What do you think about it? If you have not used Sponsored Tweets before, do you have any questions that I might be able to answer from my own experience with them?

Importance of Antivirus Software

Posted by Nile | Posted in News | Posted on 10-07-2009 | 3

Computer security is important for everyone! As general of a statement, it is the truth. So many people still complain about their computers being hacked or they had obtained some anti-virus. Problem is, the scary part when I asked them if they had at least an anti-virus program, they said “Oh, I just go around and use trial versions.”

I always wanted to say “Wrong answer!”

Scarier than that, there are some that say they do not have anything!

Antivirus Software is important and trial versions will not cut it. Some trial versions or online scanners do not even remove all or sometimes any of your computer’s viruses. It makes the difference between having a computer or not having the computer, or saving yourself some money. It also saves time from taking it to a computer fix-it store or having to send your computer into the manufacturer.

I would recommend trying VIPRE Antivirus + Antispyware as it has a free trial offer time of 15 days, and if you like it, it is $29.95 to purchase a 1 year subscription. The anti-virus is built by Sunbelt Software and Download.com gave it 5 stars. So, it is worth the shot in trying to keep your PC clean.

What do you use for your anti-virus software?

Learn.com: A Way To Stay On Top Of Your Career

Posted by Nile | Posted in News | Posted on 07-07-2009 | 1

I found this opportunity for Elearning and thought it might be a great thing to share. Learn.com is a place that allows you to keep on top of your career.

The site works a couple ways. You can take courses or if you are an expert in an area, you can create a course. In fact, if you create a course, Learn.com will give you 70% commission if your course has been taken by other users.

Learn.com Screenshot These days, it is about what your experience/skills are rather than your education. With the economy not doing that great, employers are seeking people with experience. The skills from taking Learn.com courses can help you develop the experience you need to get ahead. Some of the courses available are even connected with accredited colleges.

I know that for myself, I am seeking to increase my own skills with business management and my IT skills. I already am enrolled in college, but I think a place like Learn.com can help me develop things that my schooling may not cover. For Learn.com I selected IT and Microsoft Productivity because I already have previous college courses in this field, but I had not finished my certification. These would help eliminate the time spent in class and I could just take the exam when ready. Right now, I do not have the time to sit in a classroom, so this is convenient.

Have you tried Learn.com or a similar service? What did you think of it?

Job Consideration

Posted by Nile | Posted in News | Posted on 17-05-2009 | 4

Right now it has not been easy to find something good as a job in my area. Most of the things available are factory work. That does not do anything for me as my career has always been along the lines of web and graphic design. It is actually what I am studying for. I am seriously considering to look for New York jobs as there are a lot of opportunities in my field, especially in the New York City area.

Of course, I like the freelancing, but I am not as known as others and even though I do have some demand on my services, it is not like having a regular job to go to. As a freelancer, I have to pay for my own healthcare and even continuously strive to put myself above others when bidding for a job. I am almost at the point in my life that I may need to move to somewhere like New York to finally get somewhere with my career.

A Little Bit About CDs

Posted by Nile | Posted in News | Posted on 16-05-2009 | 0

CD Rates which is known as Certificate of Deposit Rates are not savings bonds, nor saving accounts. They are similar, but require you to keep the money in the account over a certain amount of contracted time. The amount accrues interest, but if it is taken out, then it you would not receive the amount of money that was interest. The amount for investing in CDs are much higher than usual savings accounts. However, the interest rates are usually much better than savings accounts from even credit unions.

This is something that my ex and I have discussed about getting with the money we have put together in his savings account. It would allow Angel to have money when he is older and not have to worry.

Webhosting Choice: Webhost Review Site

Posted by Nile | Posted in News | Posted on 07-05-2009 | 3

I always encourage people to visit sites that offer more information to consumers looking for web hosting. Why? Well, these sites are important in allowing people shopping for a new webhost a single place to check out reviews submitted by their peers. There are webhosts that open and close every day based on your input.

I cannot count the times I have had bad service since I started purchasing webhosting in 2003. Since then I became my own webhost.

It is not easy, but these web hosting review sites really do help. Consumers want to trust the service they buy. If a host is not genuine, or has a lot of technical problems, these review sites will reflect that in what the clients say about a company.

I recommend checking it out. If you are hosting with anyone, you should submit a review for them today at Webhosting Choice.

Get Paid to Hack

Posted by Nile | Posted in News | Posted on 22-04-2009 | 2

I have to admit, when seeing this, it really drew my eyes. There are people out there paid to hack. Now, most people associate hacking with something negative, but there are two sides to it. What I am talking about is companies hiring people to hack in order to tighten their computer security. IT Security is something highly sought after for companies today since most are turning to using computers and the internet to get the job done. In a way you would be one of the people involved in making sure your company is not hacked. You can even study online to be certified for the position, which makes it extremely convenient for people who work and have a family.

EC-Council IClass has classes in Security Fundamentals, Ethical Hacking, Penetration Testing, Computer Forensics, Disaster Recovery, and Secure Programming. All of these subjects are important for those in the tech field as it is always developing.

There are free first look classes that you can check out to see if you would be interested in taking the classes or to set you on the right path, like being a Certified Ethical Hacker. The IT field is one of the highest paying jobs. It would not hurt to give this site a look and see if it is something that you would be interested in, especially if you are still looking for a solid career.

Make A Difference Just By Walking

Posted by Nile | Posted in News | Posted on 01-04-2009 | 6

Anyone who knows me, or regularly visits knows that I support causes like Breast Cancer Awareness, and Relay for Life. These are important causes to me because I know so many women around me that have suffered from breast cancer and various others suffer from other types of cancer. For those of you that know people with cancer, or are survivors of cancer should really read the rest of this post. It is a way to support the cause just by walking.

I came across a great cause called BeeWell Miles . From April 1st until October 31st of this year (2009), Bumble Bee Foods will donate 15 cents per mile walked towards Breast Cancer.

The great thing is that anyone can do it and all you have to do is walk and log the miles at their website, BeeWellMiles.com. It is a win-win situation as you can lose weight and also support a cause at the same time. Since I have been exercising, and now that the weather is warmer, I will most likely be joining this cause. Besides logging miles on the website, you can enter your meals in and get the tabulations on calories and have access to health experts to help you along the way.

This is a great opportunity especially for mothers who are wanting to get out and about.
