Afraid of Using Your Credit Card or Debit Card Online? Use Obopay!
Filed Under free, special offer | 5 Comments
A lot of people tell me that they don’t like buying stuff online because it means giving people on the internet your private information on your credit card or debit card.
Well, fear no more! I just came across a great solution with Obopay. It let’s you get a card you can use online without having to link it to your bank accounts or credit cards. You can even manage it from your Cell phone! (What can’t you do from a cell phone these days?)
It’s a pre-paid debit MasterCard. It was featured on Wall Street Journal and comes with $10 free when you sign up. Can’t beat that.

PepperJam Network – For Affiliates By Affiliates
Filed Under affiliate, marketing, thirty day challenge | Leave a Comment
I’ll be releasing another Tech-Bites video a little later today, but I wanted to drop a line to the affiliates I know visit this website to let the know about a new affiliate network that looks extremely promising.
They are called PepperJam and they are an affiliate network that is made “by affiliates, for affiliates”… and it shows. I signed up with my information and they called me literally less than 1 minute after I registered!
Once inside I found a very slick and useful control area where I could find partners to advertise for and get code for ads on my sites that match each sites needs.
They also offer something called PepperJam Ads that is a slightly different approach to AdSense advertising. They are text ad rotators that are contextual and look a lot like adwords BUT (and this is a big but!) they let you decide which ads are displayed. A very welcome degree of control.
You can watch this video to see how easy it is to use the PepperJam Ads.
I really hope that this Network continues to grow and I see no reason why they shouldn’t. Everything was very smooth and I couldn’t be happier as an affiliate!
Just click below to get started with PepperJam.
Enjoy

PBWiki – Make your own website and collaborate with others
Filed Under Productivity, episode, planning, screencast, sharing, tutorial, wiki | 2 Comments
There are a LOT of services these days that let you make your own website with ease, but PBWiki is unique in that it also let’s you collaborate with others if you want. For instance, you can use it to:
- Manage a shared calendar
- brainstorm
- make a class worksheet
- make a page of favorite youtube videos
- use as a personal information manager
- and more!
Now, it is true that this isn’t the only service that can do these things, but I found it exceptionally easy. I’m using it as a personal information manager… and it doesn’t even expressly say that it’s for that! With a little bit of creativity, you can use it to do almost anything.
Just head to http://pbwiki.com to make your own website (wiki) today!
Just had to pass that along today
PS: Hope you like the new site design. I really just wanted to simplify things and improve navigation… and the search function actually works now! Thanks for visiting!
