VANYWHERE — Turn Time and Skills to Cryptocurrencies That Pays Bills

Image
I hear some people saying they don’t have skills for any job so they tend to stick on what is there even if it is a low-paying job. Stuck on a job which they hate until they retire. I beg to disagree because even a housewife has a skill that she may offer or share with other housewives. Is it really their choice? Or is it only just because opportunity did not present itself to them? Now, what if your skills can earn you a crypto even during traffic hours, even when you are just staying at home, a PWD, or any status you have now, would you be joining a program, a project or a platform? (Remember that cryptocurrencies now are really popular and unlike FIAT or paper money that are affected by inflation, values may increase overtime.) With Vanywhere, time can turn into cryptocurrency. Real people, real skills, real time! Vanywhere is a skill-sharing platform that connects people who are seeking and offering skills via live video, voice & chat Well, ...

24 Free Bids from Pisobid.com

Image
I got a surprise from Pisobid today though it should not be a surprise if only I religiously open my emails. The email was sent 2 months ago with the subject "Pisobid.com - FREE 24 bids for your purchase at Ensogo". This is in connection with the delivery delay of serials and pins of the bid packs I purchased from Ensogo . Considering that the cost of 12 bids is P200, the 24 FREE bids worth P400 is really an interesting subject. I am not sure how did I missed it since this email was not filtered and it is still sitting in my inbox out of the hundreds of emails I received since that time. With the serial and pin on the email and crossed fingers since it's been 2 months, I tried them. It works! :) The instruction was to ask for a refund from Ensogo but since I was not able to read it, I was not able to ask for a refund. Instead, I emailed and requested that the serials and pins should be delivered already because the vouchers are near to expiry. Luckily, Ensogo delivered ...

Ramnit Worm Compromises 45000 Facebook Accounts

Ramnit worm takes the cyberstage as recent reports claim that it has compromised 45,000 Facebook accounts. Microsoft published an entry about Ramnit worm last May 10, 2011. According to Microsoft Malware Protection System (MMPS) Threat Research and Response, "Win32/Ramnit is a family of multi-component malware that infects Windows executable files, Microsoft Office files and HTML files. Win32/Ramnit spreads to removable drives, steals sensitive information such as saved FTP credentials and browser cookies. The malware may also open a backdoor to await instructions from a remote attacker." It originally targeted financial accounts, and just a few days ago, reports came out that 45K Facebook accounts were compromised. Seculert, which has been tracking the worm, reported that Ramnit has mostly been focusing on users in the United Kingdom and France, but has been attacking accounts all over the world. Seculert believes the motive behind the stolen credentials may have magnified t...

That Green Thing Back Then

Image
This was copied from an FB friend's status. Since FB is kind of restricted and some readers might not be on my friends' list, I am reposting this on my blog instead. Quite long but worth reading, IMHO Checking out at the grocery store recently, the young cashier suggested I should bring my own grocery bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment. I apologized and explained, "We didn't have this green thing back in my earlier days." The clerk responded, "That's our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations." She was right about one thing -- our generation didn't have the green thing in “Our” day. So what did we have back then…? After some reflection and soul-searching on "Our" day here's what I remembered we did have.... Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed an...
