I don’t do photography at all. But I know others do. If you say Foap is a joke, I’ll take your word for it.

Thanks for reporting on your experience. I was hoping for some feedback; positive or negative but genuine.  🙂

It’s not a question of trusting the software that checks for plagiarism. It’s just a fact that we can’t trust other human beings not to plagiarize our content. If there were no dishonest people stealing the hard work of other people, the computer program would have not had to be written to catch those defrauders. As the Internet is vast and it is very difficult to find these thieves using your own two eyeballs, then we must rely on technological assistance. We do not rely solely on the automated checker. No wise person would ever totally depend on a computer program. Because we all know a computer program does not always “properly verify”. The people who own the site and/or writers who own the content are humans and they can perform additional verification, if need be. It’s a shame that people can’t be trusted, not the software. It’s a shame that the software had to be invented.

You’re very welcome. Lots of times I go back to my old posts and find bad links and the only thing I can think of is: “Who else visited, found the bad link, and didn’t tell me to fix it?” It would have been appreciated. I try to do it for others.

Visited your link. This site sounds like fun!! Will check it out. I might get one of my kids to do this. They need extra pocket change.

By mentioning that song you reminded me of the Happy song.

Yes. My husband converted m to foreign movies. He said American films were boring. We first started renting foreign film videos from the store. But when we got Internet access finding foreign movies online was way easy. My husband got me into watching Bollywood or Hindi movies. We really enjoy them! We like the plot and the music and most of them are “good clean fun”! They rarely have profanity or foul language, unnecessary nudity, etc. You can be entertained without being offended by distasteful script or images. You know what I mean??

Agree. Good in the beginning and either ar not paying or have completely disappeared. Yet. You sign up at similar sites for the same reasons who promise the same revenue potential and you repeat the process and you get paid. Go figure!

Why can’t all the sites be successful? They’re all supposedly doing the same thing!

Answer: Site Owners/Management.

Hey! It can’t be the members. The members want it to work!  Right?

Jacky Hughes –  Out of all the ones you mentioned I only know of two:  myLot and Swagbucks.  If a mobile device is required then I won’t participate because I don’t have a phone.  I wrote a detailed account of all my experiences trying to earn money by writing online.  The sites that are still up and running; and the sites no longer exist.  It’s not  an impossible dream but it sure does take patience, persistence and perseverance.  🙂

I am signed up for Swagbucks as did my daughter. She makes more money than I do. Much of my time is consumed with my other work-at-home projects, but it’s good to know SB is an income stream. Have had an account for a long time. It’s also good that they don’t delete your account for inactivity.  Thanks for suggesting those others sites like MTurk, Content Authority, etc.  Will have too look into them.  🙂

A couple of your memories are similar to mine.  I did enjoy mangos from the mango tree.  When there was a hurricane, we ate food and played games, but always with my mother close by us.  🙂  Cricket is not an American sport, so no memories there.  Also I’m not much into sports.  Thanks for sharing.  🙂

Support – One more thing. Not writing this out for you because I know you already know this. But this might help for those who do engage in social sharing. Some seem to want to avoid this particular task like it’s a plague.  ( J.K.  It’s just humor.  🙂 )

You said to share “Quality post”.  Well of course the term “quality” might be subjective. But you don’t really have to HUNT for the posts. You know what you enjoy reading and in your mind that post has a good “quality” and is worth sharing. So let’s just say you read a really good post and you use the share buttons at the bottom of the post to circulate it. Well! Keep scrolling down the page and take a look at some of the “Related Posts”. They are probably equal quality content and there are usually about 6 posts. One good post leads to another. Before you know it you found 10 posts or more to easily share. Works for me!   🙂

Support – Awesome!  Thanks so much for the clarification.  Bookmarked it!

Support – OK!  I share.  But I don’t share as much as your suggestion.  Quick question.  Just to be clear.

• When we share, we need to include our “referral link” to get proper credit.  Right?  In other words the URL has to include, for example, for me “?mref=cmoneyspinner” at the end of it in order for me to be credited with a coin.  Right?

• If it is my own blog post link, however.  I don’t have to add the mref part because …??  It is my link.  Right?  But if I share another member’s link then I have to add it to the URL.  Right?
