Google Chrome Beta Works
I downloaded Google Chrome Beta and I have really enjoyed web browsing with it. Chrome maximazes your screen space by keeping the total toolbar area about 3/4 inch. Of course this comes without page rank tool, Digg, Stumble Upon and other useful tools. However, I like this better. It clears everything up and makes browsing and viewing a lot clearer. Also, Chrome outlines any box you are entering text into and Google writes in actually enhances your browsing speed. I would agree. You can add tabs very easily by pressing the plus sign and additional screens are “sandboxed”. With the enhanced speed, cool design, easy colors, and clutter clearup, I rate Google Chrome browser 8.7 stars out of 10.

Time is Money - Save Time
I’m undergoing a massive organizational facelift for my online operations in an effort to become more effecient and save time. In doing this I’m eliminating a lot of the redundancy. One key tip is I’m consolidating my email addresses on different websites down to a select few. I’ve found the email addresses hosted through my servers accumulate too much junk mail to be useful so I’m doing away with them. There are still a few active emails but a lot less than before. The login time and time expended deleting junk email may seem small but definitely adds up to a large number in the aggregate. I’m also tabbing all of my websites into one spreadsheet with all details to each website charted including what medium the site is (blog, forum, regular), whether it has ads, what server its on, the registrar of the domain, the expiry of the domain, and other notes about the website. I have several spread sheets, but none as comprehensive so I needed to consolidate everything into one master list. These are the types of revisions I’m undergoing in pursuit of saving more time into my online operations. If I can get everything under wraps, I will save tens of hours of time in having to check and recheck and continually updating overlapping items. In the end, this will open up a stream for making more money or adding time for relaxation or educating myself in other areas. Either way, this efficient move is a must. Consolidating your items into one package can be lucrative not only time wise, but in a money manner in a not so direct way.

Ample Internet Money Opportunities
Sometimes I marvel at the ability to make money on the internet. There are so many different ways to create a revenue stream online. In a sense, it’s a little frustrating. A webmaster like myself cannot simply delegate easily to others. One reason is because not many know what I do. A second reason is trustworthiness. A third reason is everyone else that can is trying to do the same thing for themselves. I have over 100 active sites and more are on the way. I have them all on excel along with my calendar of to-do and time lines. You have to balance everything out - offline money, time for others, exercise, education - and it can be somewhat overwhelming but I feel in the coming years, my efforts will be realized much more than the exchange rate I receive now.

What Type of Business Entity Are You?
Most likely, if you are the owner of a blog, you are a sole proprietor. For those seeking to venture out into a more official capacity, you should examine the various types of business structures to determine what type of business you want to hold yourself out as. Most likely you will want to be an LLC or limited liability corporation because of the low risk of losing your personal assets should you get sued and lose. There are other tax structures and entity types you should look at and categorize yourself if you want to hold yourself as a corporation. This is beneficial to you as you can determine different tax benefits and legal flexibility.

YouTube Vlogging Can Lead to Sponsorship Dollars
If you haven’t thought about starting a vlog on YouTube, it’s time you considered the notion as advertising dollars will increase online and companies are now looking to amateur content as a way to break inside the video mega power of the Internet. Sponsorships for well organized, dedicated vlog pages will become more prevalent in the next two years so it is a good idea to continually build upon a solid vlog base to become more attractive to sponsorship opportunities. All presentation styles will merit various types of endorsements as long as they are popular with the user community.

GoodMoneyBlog.com
I was typing in random URLs and I came across a good money blog. In fact, the name of the blog was GoodMoneyBlog.com. I wanted to focus in on one recent blog entry in particular. The cost of relocation entry which details how taking another job in a different city for more money doesn’t always mean you’re netting a profit. The blogger gives a nice breakdown in a +/- function and in his example he moves to New York with a $20,000 pay increase but was still down $10,600 because of the financial drawbacks of NewYork.

The forum now offers a private section for premium online ideas without any substantive posts. This is not to say the free part of the forum section is bad material, but the private forum has a better concentration of tremendous ideas.

New Google PR Unrythmic
The new Google pagerank seems to have bolstered better domain names and put less weight on linking. In fact, based on what I’ve seen domains with more links were punished. Unlike before, when there was more of a method to the PR madness, this update seems to send the message: Don’t get a bunch of links unnaturally.

Google and Digg Closer To Deal
Word on the web is Google may acquire Digg for a cool $200 million after on again off again negotiations. The deal could still fall apart as there will still be weeks of finalizations that need to go through, but all signs point to another giant web business swallowed up by Google since the major points to the contract have all been agreed upon. The merger could have been easily conceptualized as this makes complete sense. Google loves the Digg voting system.
