Did you know Helium was only one year old? Has anyone here been there since the beginning? I've been there since June. I had heard about it in May, but I wanted to check and make sure it was for real. How long have you been at Helium? For those that don't know: Helium is a website that you write articles and when someone clicks on your article you get a cent. I thought Helium had been around for a lot longer than that.

I've been there since July, 2006. They changed the name a little and a few minor things, and some of the people are gone who used to be there, so maybe that's when they're counting from.

I joined Helium when it was still in its beta stage, around May or June of 2006 if I remember correctly. it was called Helium Knowledge then. Yu could post questions and you have to answer them first. And then I think they started to change them into articled after. However, once it launched as Helium.com, I couldn't access it anymore. I'm from the Philippines and it really bummed me out that it wasn't available to us anymore since then. I still visit the site in hopes it'll be accessible for us, but no dice so far. It's a pretty interesting site when I joined it, it probably still is.

I'm sorry it's not available to you. That must be very frustrating and probably disheartening. Can you write to them and ask if you can get in on the fun again? Do you think it's political? Take care

I tried to contact them a few months ago, but they said the inaccessibility was still indefinite. I just want to ensure that I can be paid for all the articles I've contributed there. I spent a lot of time and effort in writing quality articles and it's really awful not to be able to access the site. Might you know how I can contact them? I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
