ReviewMe, MyBlogLog, and Twitter

On ReviewMe: I signed up for ReviewMe a couple of months ago. And, I blogged about my initial thoughts on it at JustMakeMoneyOnline. I’ve never accepted nor written a sponsored/paid post. In the last couple of days or so, I’ve received two review offers to be posted here at ShaiCoggins.com. That would’ve made me US$100 immediately, provided both posts were accepted and approved. But, I decided to decline. I’m now even considering pulling out ShaiCoggins.com from their marketplace altogether, as I don’t think I’ll be doing any sponsored/paid posts here. However, I do hope to explore these types of services in some way. It has to be elsewhere, though. What are your thoughts on ReviewMe?

On MyBlogLog: A few weeks ago, I added the MyBlogLog community/readers widget here at ShaiCoggins.com. I find it to be an interesting way to track who has joined this blog’s community and who has recently visited/read this blog. It’s good because at least even though readers may not leave comments, I end up knowing who’s just been here. I just wish there’s a way to see a full day’s list of visitors (and running up to a week, maybe), not just the most recent ones. What about you? Are you on MyBlogLog? What do you think of it? If you’re on MyBlogLog, do join the ShaiCoggins.com community to let me know you’re following this blog. :-)

On Twitter: Another latest addition to my sidebar is the “What Am I Doing?” widget from Twitter. I can’t seem to make their Flash application to work on EE’s sidebars, so I opted for the basic JavaScript version. This one isn’t really useful, as far as I’m concerned. Just a fun little toy to distract me with every now and then. Anyway, you can sign up on Twitter and follow what your Friends/Contacts are doing. You can even ‘nudge’ them if they haven’t updated for a while.

Anyway, here’s the badge for my Twitter Friends’ Timeline:

There are hacks to see the last 127 visitors, but the best way to monitor MyBlogLog visitis currently is yackyacks tracker
