Picture show

We were recently trying to think of an original birthday present for my partner, who has everything that he wants at home, more clothes than he could ever wear - you get the picture? That was the point of inspiration - he loves to have photos of family and friends on show, but dislikes clutter. A digital photo frame is the answer. This is a stylish way to display all your favourite still photos and short film clips using a simple upload to the frame from your digital camera. Inside the digital picture frame you have a set of infrared remote controls to choose the frequency for the images to change over, so you can show a different photo every two minutes for example. In the end we chose the eight-inch clear acrylic frame with a black insert. You can now order digital frames online for a low price, I defy you to find anybody who would not like to have one!

Adsense income

Your Adsense blog can get access to a lucrative alternate source of income thanks to a fairly new service from Smorty. This company acts as a link between bloggers and advertisers who are willing to pay for sponsored blog reviews. At Smorty you register a blog - one per account - and you will receive email alerts when there is a new paid campaign for which your blog is eligible. Then you have the chance to log in to the site, claim the opportunity and you then have three days to write and publish the blog advertising post on your blog. Your post will then show as pending approval, and is normally approved within a few days. The company pays out via Paypal at the end of each month. The amount you get paid for blogging for each sponsored post varies from $6 upwards. If you want to start blogging for money, you can submit your blog today and you normally get a decision withing 24 hours, after that you can look out for blog advertising opportunities.
