Okay, now the bonus round:
A mute person goes into a shop and wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing his teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done.
Next, a blind man comes into the shop who wants to buy a pair of sunglasses; how does HE indicate what he wants?
Raise your hand if you remember AllAdvantage.
Well, it looks like the owners are about to start up something HUGE.
Its called Agloco (it stands for "A Global Community")
I touched on this a little bit yesterday, but after spending quite
a few hours reading the pro's and con's all over the internet, I
like what I see.
You see, Alladvantage gave out hundreds of millions of dollars to its
members before they reached a membership cap and began losing money.
But after looking at their business model, this one cant fail, honestly.
And trust me, I know about advertising and business and all of that
other fun stuff. Remember my Vegas trip? It was for this sort of thing.
The way it works is this:
You sign up, install their "viewbar" (you can see samples of it on their
website), then just do as you normally do. (Its set to go live by the end
of the month).
The cool thing is you only need to keep the viewbar active for 5 hours
a month.
And oh yeah, refer people. Lots and lots of them.
Each referral you have will equal to roughly one part stock in their
company and you will be paid accordingly on a monthly basis.
Or, you can just search on Youtube
and watch a bunch of different videos.
Can you tell im excited about this?
I actually think it'll work.
If not, what do we have to lose? Nothing. Only 5 minutes of signing up and referring our friends.
Oh yeah, speaking of referring, here are some sample emails you can use.
Just remember to insert your own referral link.
Sometimes Free Is Too Expensive
Subject: Sometimes free is too expensive
Ever notice on the Internet that some people are making all the money (YouTube, Google, MySpace, eBay, Skype, etc.).
As users, we usually get nothing – well I just joined AGLOCO and its sole purpose is to get its members their share of the value created on the Internet (that’s everything from search and advertising revenue to user-generated content sites).
You can check out the site to see how AGLOCO does it, but from my standpoint I just use the Internet the same as usual, and they work in the background to collect money for me.
One feature I really like is that they reward the early people who help build out the network (which is why I am sending you this email). Click on this link to go directly AGLOCO (with my member id#), and I will get credit if you sign up. http://www.agloco.com/r/agloXXXX
My advice: sign up now – invite all your friends and let's make the most of the Internet.
Join AGLOCO And Make Money From The Internet
Subject: Join AGLOCO and make money from the Internet
I just joined a new company called AGLOCO that is changing the way regular users -- like you and me -- are rewarded for their use of the Internet. Instead of just a couple people making all the money while users get nothing, AGLOCO rewards its members for using the Internet like they always do.
One feature I really like is that the early people who help build the company get greater rewards (which is why I am sending you this email). Click on this link to go directly to AGLOCO (with my member id#) and join my network http://www.agloco.com/r/agloXXXX
It's free and easy to join -- so don't miss out on this new company.
Share In The Money Being Made On The Internet
Subject: Share in the money being made on the Internet
It seems like every company on the Internet makes a couple people absurdly rich, while all the users who help build the company and make it valuable get nothing.
I just joined AGLOCO, the first company that is sharing this value with all its members. It's free and easy to join -- and even easier to use: you just use the Internet like you always do.
Best of all, those who sign up early and help build the company get more. So click here http://www.agloco.com/r/agloXXXX to sign up with my member id and tell your friends about the company.
It's a no lose opportunity that has the chance to transform the Internet -- and let us share in the value creation.
Join The Economic Network Chaning The Web
Subject: Join the economic network changing the web
I just joined AGLOCO -- the first company on the Internet that is building an economic network to share the wealth created online with its members. Like a social network such as myspace or facebook, but instead of just making friends and swapping music, the economic network is about making money for its members.
It's easy and free to join -- and even easier to use: you just use the Internet as you always have. And the members who sign up early and build a big network of friends stand to earn the most. Click on this link http://www.agloco.com/r/agloXXXX and join my network by using my member id.
Let's build a big network and see if we can make something from this.
Why AGLOCO?
If you haven’t yet heard about AGLOCO, you need to listen up! This new company, founded by a bunch of Stanford MBA students, is creating quite a buzz. Their slogan is ‘Own the Internet’… and that’s what it’s about: you’re getting back some of the money you generate for e-businesses just by surfing as you usually do. Skeptical? Well, here’s why I chose to join:
1) $$$ - I will earn ownership in the company (in the form of shares) and will then begin earning substantial money if this thing blows up (and I have nothing to lose if it doesn’t.)
2) Simplicity - I use the Internet just as I always have… I just get paid to do it!
3) Getting my share! - I like the idea of getting my share of all the billions of wealth being created on the Internet – even if I am not going to be a millionaire because of this.
The company has a very solid privacy structure in place, so your information won’t be shared and you won’t start receiving loads of spam. AND, you can earn for not only the time you spend on the net, but for the time your FRIENDS spend on the net. Think about it: you’re driving users to the site, so the company earns more, and you, in turn, earn more. Fair and square, right? I used the AGLOCO member calculator – I can get over 5,000 shares a month if I sign up 10 good people who recruit more new members; and, once the site has grown enough, I will start earning actual checks.
SIGN UP NOW – this is the key! Remember that you can maximize your earnings by getting referrals to the site… and YOU want to be the one referring everyone!
Here is a link to sign up – it has my ID code in it. http://www.agloco.com/r/agloXXXX.
Babs Miller was bagging some early potatoes for me. I noticed a small boy, delicate of bone and feature,ragged but clean, hungrily apprising a basket of freshly picked green peas.
I paid for my potatoes but was also drawn to the display of fresh green peas. I am a pushover for creamed peas and new potatoes. Pondering the peas, I couldn't help overhearing the conversation between Mr. Miller and the ragged boy next to me.
"Hello Barry, how are you today?"
"H'lo, Mr. Miller. Fine, thank ya. Jus' admirin' them peas. Sure look good."
"They are good, Barry. How's your Ma?"
"Fine. Gittin' stronger alla' time."
"Good. Anything I can help you with?"
"No, Sir. Jus' admirin' them peas."
"Would you like to take some home?"
"No, Sir. Got nuthin' to pay for 'em with."
"Well, what have you to trade me for some of those peas?"
"All I got's my prize marble here."
"Is that right? Let me see it."
"Here 'tis. She's a dandy."
"I can see that. Hmmmmm, only thing is this one is blue and I sort of go for red. Do you have a red one like this at home?"
"Not zackley. but almost."
"Tell you what. Take this sack of peas home with you and next trip this way let me look at that red marble."
"Sure will. Thanks Mr. Miller."
Mrs. Miller, who had been standing nearby, came over to help me. With a smile she said, "There are two other boys like him in our community, all three are in very poor circumstances. Jim just loves to bargain with them for peas, apples, tomatoes, or whatever.
When they come back with their red marbles, and they always do, he decides he doesn't like red after all and he sends them home with a bag of produce for a green marble or an orange one, perhaps."
I left the stand smiling to myself, impressed with this man. A short time later I moved to Colorado but I never forgot the story of this man, the boys, and their bartering.
Several years went by, each more rapid that the previous one. Just recently I had occasion to visit some old friends in that Idaho community and while I was there learned that Mr. Miller had died. They were having his viewing that evening and knowing my friends wanted to go, I agreed to accompany them. Upon arrival at the mortuary we fell into line to meet the relatives of the deceased and to offer whatever words of comfort we could.
Ahead of us in line were three young men. One was in an army uniform and the other two wore nice haircuts, dark suits and white shirts ... all very professional
looking.
They approached Mrs. Miller, standing composed and
smiling by her husband's casket. Each of the young men hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke briefly with her and moved on to the casket.
Her misty light blue eyes followed them as, one by one, each young man stopped briefly and placed his own warm hand over the cold pale hand in the casket. Each left the mortuary awkwardly, wiping his eyes.
Our turn came to meet Mrs. Miller. I told her who I was and mentioned the story she had told me about the marbles. With her eyes glistening, she took my hand and led me to the casket.
"Those three young men who just left were the boys I told you about. They just told me how they appreciated the things Jim "traded" them. Now, at last, when Jim could not change his mind about color or size....they came to pay their debt."
"We've never had a great deal of the wealth of this world," she confided, "but right now, Jim would consider himself the richest man in Idaho "
With loving gentleness she lifted the lifeless fingers of her deceased husband. Resting underneath were three exquisitely shined red marbles.
Moral: We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind deeds. Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath.
Today I wish you a day of ordinary miracles....A fresh pot of coffee you didn't make yourself. An unexpected phone call from an old friend. Green stoplights on your way to work. The fastest line at the grocery store. A good sing-along song on the radio. Your keys right where you left them.
Send this to the people you'll never forget. If you don't send it to anyone, it means you are in too much of a hurry !

Have you ever told a white lie? You are going to love
this--especially all of the ladies who bake for church events.
Alice Grayson was to bake a cake for the Baptist Church ladies' group
bake sale in Tuscaloosa, but she forgot to do it until the last minute.
She remembered it the morning of the bake sale and after rummaging
through cabinets she found an angel food cake mix and quickly made
it while drying her hair and dressing and helping her son Bryan pack
up for Scout camp.
But when Alice took the cake from the oven, the center had dropped
flat and the cake was horribly disfigured. She said, "Oh dear, there's
no time to bake another cake."
This cake was so important to Alice because she did so want to fit
in at her new church, and in her new community of new friends.
So, being inventive, she looked around the house for something to
build up the center of the cake.
Alice found it in the bathroom -- a roll of toilet paper.
She plunked it in and then covered it with icing. Not only did the
finished product look beautiful, it looked perfect!
Before she left the house to drop the cake by the church and head
for work, Alice woke her daughter Amanda and gave her some money
and specific inst ructions to be at the bake sale the minute it opened
at 9:30, and to buy that cake and bring it home.
When the daughter arrived at the sale, she found that the attractive
perfect cake had already been sold.
Amanda grabbed her cell phone and called her Mom. Alice was
horrified she was beside herself. Everyone would know, what would
they think?
Oh, my she wailed! She would be ostracized, talked about,
ridiculed.
All night Alice lay awake in bed thinking about people pointing
their fingers at her and talking about her behind her back.
The next day, Alice promised herself that she would try not to
think about the cake and she would attend the fancy luncheon/bridal
shower at the home of a friend of a friend and try to have a good time.
Alice did not really want to attend because the hostess was a snob
who more than once had looked down her nose at the fact that Alice
was a single parent and not from the founding families of Tuscaloosa,
but having already RSVP 'd she could not think of a believable excuse
to stay home.
The meal was elegant, the company was definitely upper crust old
South... and to Alice's horror, the CAKE in question was presented
for dessert.
Alice felt the blood drain from her body when she saw the cake, she
started, out of her chair to rush to tell her hostess all about it, but
before she could get to her feet, the Mayor's wife said,
"What beautiful cake!"
Alice, who was still stunned, sat back in her chair when she heard
the hostess (who was a prominent church member) say, "Thank you,
I baked it myself."
Alice smiled and thought to herself, "GOD is good."

Watch your animals........
Jennifer and Jim kept getting huge water bills. They knew beyond a doubt that the bills weren't representative of their actual usage, and no matter how they tried to conserve, the high bills continued. Although they could see nothing wrong, they had everything checked for leaks or problems: first the water meter, then outdoor pipes, indoor pipes, underground pipes, faucets, toilets, washer, ice maker, etc. all to no avail.
One day Jim was sick and stayed home in bed, but kept hearing water running downstairs. He finally tore himself from his sick bed to investigate, and stumbled onto the cause of such high water bills. Apparently this was happening all day long when they were not at home. Knowing that few would believe him, he taped a segment of the 'problem' for posterity - see attached video with sound!

How does buying on Etsy work?
To buy items, you'll need to create an Etsy account (it's free and easy). You purchase items on Etsy directly from the seller, using whatever payment you specify when checking out (e.g. PayPal, money order, check etc.). Keep in mind that every seller must be paid individually, and all payments must be made within seven days of checkout. We ask if you choose to pay via PayPal that you submit payment immediately to the seller. Each seller will have their own return policy (if they have one at all), shipping options and payment terms. If you have any questions about any of these, it's best to contact the seller directly before making the purchase.
How does the shopping cart work?
As you shop around and find items that suit your fancy, add them to your cart. Note: items in your cart are not removed from the site or reserved for you, until you complete the checkout process. The majority of items on Etsy are one-of-a-kind and thus tend to sell out quickly, so it's a bit risky to leave items in your cart for too long. Once you've got everything you want, click the big green Checkout button and following the onscreen instructions.

BookMooch is a community for exchanging used books.
BookMooch lets you give away books you no longer need in exchange for books you really want.
# Give & receive: Every time you give someone a book, you earn a point and can get any book you want from anyone else at BookMooch. Once you've read a book, you can keep it forever or put it back into BookMooch for someone else, as you wish.
# No cost: there is no cost to join or use this web site: your only cost is mailing your books to others.
# Points for entering books: you receive a tenth-of-a-point for every book you type into our system, and one point each time you give a book away. In order to keep receiving books, you need to give away at least one book for every five you receive.
# Help charities: you can also give your points to charities we work with, such as children's hospitals (so a sick kid can get a free book delivered to their bed), Library fund, African literacy, or to us to thank us for running this web site .
"Our global community provides a unique environment that encourages you to meet new people, share your thoughts, look for advice and most importantly, make YOUR voice heard. Nearly 500,000 consumers from 21 different countries around the world are already sharing their thoughts and opinions."

Ok, so back on topic. Shrink Pictures is exactly as its titled.
Here is a little excerpt from their website:
Resize Images Online
Welcome to Shrink Pictures. As an admin of a large Forum, we have a lot of users who have almost no grapics skills or knowledge. This website was created out of frustration of users asking questions like How do I resize images? How do I make images smaller? and How do I shrink this picture for an avatar?. So, we created the Shrink Pictures tools that are no more difficult than posting in a Forum and now anyone can Resize Images and Digital Pictures.
Another common use is to resize photos before sending in an email or posting it to your Blog.
To resize your images it is as simple as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5!
1. Browse your computer and select your image/photo to resize
2. Select the new size for your picture - use a preset or choose a custom size
3. Optionally, add an effect to your image
4. Select output image/picture quality Lower quality means a smaller file
5. Click "Resize" and wait for the processed images to be displayed
If you need to shrink a picture to avatar size then do it with our Shrink Avatars tool.
Original images can be up to 6Meg in size means you can use photos direct from your 8 megapixel Digital Camera. Original image can be jpg, gif or png. All resized images are automatically converted to jpg
A Place to Be Heard
More and more seniors are online, which makes the web a perfect place for them to share their opinions with each other, and with the world. Seniorsurvey.com provides a forum where seniors can easily speak their mind, as well as a place where their voice can easily be heard. As a result, seniors can see how they compare with their peers, both in the US and abroad. And providers of senior services and products can better understand their customers.
A Powerful Voice
Today, nearly half the US population is aged 50 or older. Worldwide, more than 578 million people are over the age of 60. And these numbers are going up fast. All across the globe, the senior population is growing at an unprecedented rate, far faster than any other age group. In another 25 years, more than 20% of the total population in most of Europe, Asia, North America, and Australia will be at least 60.
Long-Term Listening
Ideas about aging are rapidly changing, especially here in the US, where baby boomers are now reaching their senior years. At Seniorsurvey.com, we intend to track these changes with an ongoing series of timely, easy-to-take surveys. We will regularly post results from past and current surveys, provide updates on upcoming surveys, and request opinions on a wide variety of senior-related issues. So please check back often. And give us your opinion.
