This is how I share my Blog. What is Your Strategy?

georgegijo @georgegijo (241) • India 24 Nov 12

I use Facebook, Twitter, G+ and Stumbleupon to share my posts. It's good you rewrite the sharing content so that it doesn't affect your blog post adversely and guard against plagarism. This is usually a problem with automatic...

purplemandy At the moment I am not doing anything to promote either of my blogs. I don't update them very regularly and when I have had a lot of readers before I felt almost pressured to write it in regularly, and don't want to end up feeling like that again. If you make...

purplemandy I haven't watched many Bollywood movies, but I haven't particularly liked the ones I have seen. I wouldn't not watch anymore in the future, but I'm also not desperate to see any more either.

Do You Still Order From Catalogues?

adforme @adforme (2114) 9 Oct 12

I know I asked do you still order from catalogs? I guess because for the most part, it is a thing of the past. I find ordering from catalogs to be quite convenient and nostalgic. I have fond memories of new clothes from catalog...

purplemandy I order some clothes from catalogues. It is easy when you don't have time to go into town and there is often more choice such as the same style available in a variety of colours. It also means you can try it on at home with different items to see how it will...

Oh, UV tattoo?

youless @youless (113953) • Guangzhou, China 8 Oct 12

Now there is a new tattoo technology. They use UV tattoo ink to make a tattoo on your skin. And the tattoo will not show in the daytime. When you go to the club, bar etc. And this tattoo will be appeared. So you don't have to be...

purplemandy That does look quite cool but I never go clubbing so it would be a bit pointless for me to get one. I'm not sure how healthy that ink is for your body either, it sounds a bit weird.

Do you think myLot will stop paying via paypal?

Bionicman @Bionicman (3958) • Czech Republic 8 Oct 12

Recently more and more legitimate paying sites lost Paypal option. Various money making sites (all sorts, image sharing, captcha typing...) that were working for a long time got blocked by Paypal. Do you think myLot will be next?...

purplemandy Paypal is the only site like that I use so hopefully mylot will keep using it. I would look into joining an alternative to Paypal but it would be annoying having to do it just for one site.

Oh how much I rely on electricity!

kedralynn @kedralynn (980) • United States 24 Sep 12

I didn't realize how much of my life is controlled by electricity until it shut off for a few hours today. Thankfully it was after my shower, as my water heater is electric and there's no window in my bathroom to let light in!...

purplemandy My electricity went off completely a couple of months ago and before they moved me into a different flat I had to cope with one plug that was fed through the window from the block next door. It is quite scary to realise how lost you are without it, especially...

USB or Cloud Storage... what do you prefer in storing your important files?

Proud Dad of Twins :) @primeaque86 (8108) • Philippines 24 Sep 12

purplemandy I save most of my files on my computer, with the more important ones e-mailed to myself. I do have some things on USBs and Dropbox, but I haven't got around to sorting them all out properly yet.

Have you heard about this 'sucking' fish?

micha5088 @micha5088 (554) • Malaysia 23 Sep 12

Using hobby as source of extra income

asdomencil @asdomencil (4265) • Philippines 23 Sep 12

purplemandy I love tennis! I used to play most weeks, but that was years ago when me and my sister both lived at home. I still enjoy watching it, although without Sky we only really get to see Wimbledon.

Tattoos

Mickie30 @Mickie30 (2626) 22 Sep 12

I just answered a post on Mylot that triggered an idea for a question. Last week I got a tattoo done and when I went into the shop it had a poster on the wall saying that children would not be tattooed even if accompanied by their...

purplemandy I don't have any children, but I would say that until they are 18 they shouldn't be allowed tattoos at all. Aside from the risks, it is a big decision to make as it is permanent and some people won't have stopped growing, which could affect it depending on...

purplemandy I have known people who wouldn't eat something if it was the last day before it expired, even things that aren't fresh and just say the end of a particular month. Or 'best before' which doesn't necessarily mean that you can't eat it after the date. I won't...

Pictures of Kate Middleton

A Swedish magazine has published the controversial pictures of Kate Middleton once again ? It is going to publish these pictures online too. I really feel sorry for Kate.

Buy a new dig camera instead of replacing the battery?

purplemandy Look into the different cameras you can get, and their specifications. If you find one that is not much more than a new battery, consider getting it. There may even be a newer version of the one you have now, so it wouldn't be totally different to what you...
