My article about big money making blogs ended up with comments about over-crowded niches and the small chance that you will be successful in a niche that is completely stuffed with blogs and websites. If you want to make some money from blogging, there are several other parts of the Internet, which are ready to be used to gain a income.

If you’re a blogger in a over-crowded niche and you keep on struggling with earning a few dollars each month, you really should consider blogging about something else. Thousands of bloggers spend one day after another with writing articles that other bloggers have published before. Those articles won’t get noticed, but the enthusiastic bloggers keep on trying.

This article is meant to show you, what you can earn with a blog. To illustrate this post, we’ve taken a look inside the earnings of some great bloggers in the world, that actually post their earnings on the Internet.

Is there a single person in the world, that has never heard about Geert Wilders’ plan to make a anti-Koran movie? The news got worldwide known in the past few weeks and Wilders has already been threatened to get killed once he publishes his movie!

What is it, that keeps Wilders pushing forward to fight for his opinion and make a (political) statement? Is it really worth getting killed, which is most likely, to show your opinion to the world? Everyone can have his or her opinion, but is it worth to risk your life for that?

I think Wilders is only trying to make a point and show the world how single minded the world is. Wilders can cause so much trouble in the world, just by saying that he will create a anti-Koran movie, what will happen to the lost soul that actually will publish such a movie? Read more »

Google announced a new feature within her Google Apps package, the development of websites. Users of the Google Apps are free to create, modify or do whatever they like with pages for company intranet, or even for the internet.

Google Sites

Setting up a page in Google Sites should be as easy as creating a document in a text editor. You do not need any knowledge on HTML or PHP to create a page or complete site, with Google Sites. Users are also able to set who is allowed to take a look at the pages; a small group, the company or even the entire world. Read more »

On the great blog Problogger, a guest blogger asked the question; “Have blogs killed conventional websites“? To me, it’s pretty obvious why blogs have much more influence on the internet. We do need to keep in mind that this doesn’t apply to all blogs.

Most blogs won’t reach the status successful. But the blogs that do reach that status, have lots of people following, reading and interacting with the blog. And interaction is the keyword, which is why blogs have more influence and why blogs are more popular than conventional websites. Read more »

Yesterday I wrote about the great interaction between Blippr and bloggers. Being a great production as Blippr is, they instantly awarded Webhypes 100 private beta invites for their software, to give away to our readers.

You can subscribe for the beta of Blippr yourself, but you will only recieve a invite once Blippr decides to give away some more invites. Using our private beta invites, you can get instant access to the Blippr beta. Read more »

For most types of work, it boosts the productivity of your work when you can design your own environment. Off course, there is always a boss that will keep it within limits (otherwise I would play my favorite music at volume 10 instead of 2). But still, your working environment will definitely affect your work.

I can’t imagine working, without having music in my ears. Okay, I can work without music, but I will be more productive when I can listen to my favorite bands jamming their guitars. Big chunks of code seem a lot less stressful with the chords of one of the best guitarists in the world.
