A colleague of mine recently introduce me to sign up for WidgetBucks. Its another advertisement panel for your blog. Upon signup, you’ll straightaway be awarded with $25.

So what is WidgetBucks? WidgetBucks features pay-per-click shopping widgets that help our customers make money fast. They instantly display the most popular products based on buying trends of 100 million shoppers. Thus they are highly engaging, which means instant dollars for the customers. Their widgets see $3-$6 CPM — pretty good compared to traditional ad networks that deliver less than $2 CPM.

It’ll only take you 3 easy steps to sign up. Click here to go to the sign up page. On that page, you’ll be required to enter your email address and password for the account.

After that you’ll be taken to a page where you will customize your widget. You will have to choose a name for your widget. Next, enter the website url where you will place the widget. Then, choose the size that you want. You may also change the widget box’s colour scheme to suit your website. Next, you will have to choose the product to display in your widget box. You may manually choose the product, or let the system decide what to advertise in your website.

Lastly, after you’re done with the above step, all you need to do is grab the code by clicking the “Get code” button and install the script to your webpage. Voila! You’ve now installed the widgetbucks advertisment box. Sign up now before the free $25 promotion ends.

With more people keeping digital artwork and photographs on their computers in bulk, image-cataloguing software is a booming sector. One absolutely free option that you might want to try is Google’s Picasa.

Picasa is more like a great photo organizer than it is a photo editor. It does have some features to fix photo mistakes. The greatest feature of this product is its organizing capabilities. It is also one of the easiest to use programs that I have used. The screens are simple, friendly and intuitive. There are also some limited ways to share your photos including a unique online sharing method called “Hello.”

This software is Vista compatible.

Pros

• Picasa is free. Integrates with other free Google services (Blogger, Web Albums, and Hello).
• Picasa is extremely easy to use.
• Provides good red-eye removal, quick fixes and effects, and online sharing options.
• Editing info is stored in INI files, making all edits reversible without saving multiple versions.
• Display your pictures as a custom screensaver, collage, or slide show movie.
• Allows to select compression level while exporting photo (Maximum, Minimum, Normal, Automatic & Customs)
• Designed for non-techies and casual digital photographers.

Cons

• Uses a folder-based system of organization.
• Edits are not displayed outside of Picasa.
• Limited organizational and searching features.
• No way to edit a photo’s embedded date.

With the limited feature set that this product offers, it doesn’t match up to the competition. There are easier to use, more powerful options available.
