Is making money online a realistic goal nowadays?

gottasayit74 @gottasayit74 (99) • Canada 29 Jun 12

Making money online has been something we all wish to achieve. But why is it that so many of us fail? The competition out there is so large that we are lucky to make enough just to pay a small bill each month. Some of us, only...

sleepincot Many people have the false misconception that earning money online is much less work than working in the office. This statement is false, even to the point where working online is more work than the office. Once people figure that out, they tend to quit. To...

Mylot going down for the weekend?

petersum @petersum (4522) • United States 28 Jun 12

Well, the signs are all here to see. Unable to post sometimes. Icons showing - not showing - showing again. Pages not fully loading. Or showing a blank white page. Getting stuck waiting for the advertisements. Long, long waits...

sleepincot I have not noticed any change with mylot... Maybe it is your computer or internet connection? No problem with me: all pages are loading, no wait at all.

sleepincot I think that the Ku Klux Klan can apply as much as they want but anyone with a brain will see what their truen intentions are. So let them apply as much as they want, and get rejected by the state. It is outrageous letting a terrorist group adopt a highway to...

students who are scared to ask for help

kelzbelz @kelzbelz (36) • United States 28 Jun 12

not all teachers have time to go around the room that's why they need helpers and i will admit that in some classes, or schools that there are helpers in there but not all of the classes have them but they should there are a lot...

sleepincot I agree with the other comment, it isn't really scared but shy. Myself being really shy in person I would say it happens because you are worried what the teacher or other students will think about you. You are concerned with "fitting in" that you judge...

Why do people use Facebook?

PhillyDreamer @PhillyDreamer (3039) • United States 28 Jun 12

It just occurred to me,with sites like MyLot, Hubpages, and Redgage that pay you for your participation, why do so many people flock to Facebook to do their social networking. It seems to me they are making Facebook rich and not...

sleepincot I would probably say that since all your friends use facebook, it makes sense to join something which is already there than have all your friends move to a new social networking site. Also facebook has many apps and games which make the experience much more...

swagbucks

asyria51 @asyria51 (2861) • United States 28 Jun 12

Swagbucks is a site that I have dabbled with off and on for the last couple of years. I have earned enough points to receive a few gift cards. I was on the other day in a few minutes of down time and they are having a promotion,...

sleepincot I myself am a very active member with Swagbucks, and I can say it is a legit site that does pay. However I would suggest don't get the $20 paypal cashout, get amazon giftcards instead as those are cheaper pointwise. You get more "bang for the point" if you get...

Internet Speed

ericgrilli13 @ericgrilli13 (2) • United States 6 Jun 12

My computer has just recently started slowing down its internet speed. It went from loading a page in about 2 seconds to loading it in about 10 seconds. Is there something wrong with the computer? How can I fix this?

speed

sleepincot Well with a difference of 8 seconds it isn't too major, but nonetheless annoying. I think it has something to do with your ISP. Go to speedtest.net to find out your connection speed. Chances are it is lower than it previously was.

sleepincot Definitely a hardware issue. Open up your computer and try to locate the source of the noise. Might be a malfunctioning fan, your hard drive, video card, etc. Once you figure out what it is try to purchase or get a replacement part for your computer.

Will Windows 8 be a hit for desktop computers?

yoretiller0522 @yoretiller0522 (142) 18 Apr 12

Considering that I've seen and used Windows 8's consumer preview, I am on the boat of thinking that it is too much of a change from the typical Windows interface for desktops that unless you have a touch optimized desktop, it is...

sleepincot Personally, I think Windows 8 will only be useful on mobile devices and touch screen desktops. Using it with a mouse is too tedious for normal use. I can't even imagine what it would look like in an office setting.

sleepincot Make sure the ram is inserted properly into your computer. If so, maybe you have exceeded the maximum ram you can put in the computer, or it doesn't support the type of ram you are trying to install.
