Inmates angry about Paris’ special treatment

LOL...really? No way. Of course Paris got special treatment in the clink while she was there in the form of her parents getting special visitation rights while inside. Sitting at the folding tables of the visitation rooms she was unlike other convicts in that she didn't have to wait to see her relatives, unlike the rest of the inmates.

Alvina Floyd waited more than four hours to visit her fiance. It normally takes two, and Floyd, 20, blamed the Hiltons for the delay.

“I have to be at work later,” she said. “I can’t wait here all day.”

Gotta love the way a celeb can piss people off...lol

After her visit, Kathy Hilton said her daughter wants “just to do her time and get on.” She added her daughter has not had much sleep.

Oh no. It will be alright Paris.

PayPerPost Secures $7 Million

This recent press release discusses a new $7 Million procurement of cash for PayPerPost to continue leading the way in the paid blogging arena. Allowing marketers to advertise on blogs PPP has become the biggest network of bloggers in the marketplace and gives advertisers the best chance to get the word out on their products and services.

I've been posting for PPP since December and couldn't ask for a better way to earn money online. The amount of advertisers and bloggers there is by far the biggest on the web. Advertisers are able to gain long-term advertising via search engines, blogs, and word of mouth like no other advertising avenue available. They are able to reach millions of readers and internet users at a fraction of the cost that traditional advertising offers.

Draper Fisher Jurvetson leads round and joins Board of Directors

ORLANDO, FL – (June 12, 2007) – PayPerPost, the leading marketplace for advertisers to reach bloggers and other consumer content creators, today announced it has completed a $7 million second round investment led by Draper Fisher Jurvetson, an investor in the company's Series A and one of the world’s leading high-technology venture capital firms. The financing brings the total amount of capital raised by PayPerPost to over $10 million, giving the company considerable resources for further development as the industry’s leading Consumer Generated Advertising marketplace. Additional participants in the round include existing investors Inflexion Partners and Village Ventures as well as new investor DFJ Gotham. With this investment, DFJ Managing Director Josh Stein also joins PayPerPost’s Board of Directors.

“PayPerPost created this exciting new advertising space and has established itself as the industry leader,” said Ted Murphy, chief executive officer of PayPerPost. “Although we’ve only used a portion of our first round capital, this added support from investors unlocks significant growth potential. Our content creator and advertiser ROI metrics clearly demonstrate the upside for PayPerPost’s model. We intend to use this capital to build the infrastructure, visibility and professional expertise necessary to reach and retain a greater network of advertisers and content creators than ever before.”

Since its founding in June of 2006, PayPerPost has signed more than 6,500 advertisers to its groundbreaking service, which has enabled Consumer Content Creators to be compensated for their efforts discussing specific companies, products or services via blogs, videos or other media. The content creators are required to disclose relationships with advertisers on their blog, providing transparency for the end reader. Over 125,000 Internet postings, most in the form of blogs, have already earned money for their creators through PayPerPost’s innovative marketplace. PayPerPost recently released PayPerPost Direct, a disruptive new service that allows advertisers to contract and negotiate directly with individual bloggers they identify through a safe, managed system.

“PayPerPost has laid a strong foundation for the future,” noted Tim Draper, founder and managing director of Draper Fisher Jurvetson. “It continues to attract a critical mass of participants from both the advertising and blogging communities. Analogous to Overture’s sponsored search model, we believe PayPerPost’s business model holds disruptive potential and will enable the company to thrive in the evolving paid-content arena.”

To mark the $7 million dollar funding, PayPerPost has launched a new website detailing the company’s service offering at http://www.payperpost.com. Bloggers and advertisers can easily sign up at the site and begin leveraging the self service marketplace.

Paris Hilton says she will no longer ‘act dumb’

Is this possible? Of course not. She is talking out of her ass as usual. If she were to bust out with something like the stats behind California mortgage refinance I might have to change my mind, but really there is nothing here to believe. Talk is cheap.

Imprisoned hotel heiress Paris Hilton has said she believes God has given her a new chance and she plans to stop acting dumb and put her influence to good use.

Hilton called television journalist Barbara Walters on Sunday from the medical wing of a Los Angeles jail, where she is being held for violating probation in a drunken-driving case, and Walters recounted the conversation on her ABC television show “The View” on Monday. read more..

Ghosts, demons, and all things supernatural

Do you believe in the supernatural? Ghosts, demons, shadow people, etc? I always find myself drawn to such entities in theory, but only had a couple experiences dealing with them. Both times I just blew it off as a trick of my eyes.

One experience I had was with what I thought was a ghost. Not in a house, or a scary old mental asylum, but right outside, in a residential neighborhood. My buddy, our girlfriends, and myself were driving around bored and all of a sudden I saw the oddest thing. Sitting at a stop sign at a four-way stop intersection I saw a woman standing in a very small field directly in front of us. She looked like she was screaming, but I heard no sound. At first I was wondering what the heck she was doing there. I asked the others about it, but when I turned back to look she was gone. Instantly. I then asked if any of them saw here, and only my buddy said he did. We kind of just stopped talking for a while and never mentioned it again. To this day I wonder about it and we never really talked about it. I'm still very skeptical about the supernatural and shows like the Ghost Hunters. That experience really didn't convince of their existence.

On the same note the 1408 Movie is about a guy (John Cusak), who is skeptical about all this like I am. Also, starring Samuel L. Jackson, the 1408 Movie is set in a creepy hotel. The room 1408 has been said to not relinquish any survivors and no one has ever spent an hour in the room and come out alive. Cusak, wants to see for himself and decided to spend a night in the room. What happens may change the way he thinks forever.

Britney Spears Ugly Butt

Britney Spears vacationing in Puerto Vallarta this weekend showed off a bit for cameras. Unfortunately for us, she looks worse than ever. Just a few weeks after getting out of rehab when she had a complete meltdown, Britney looks to be in rare form with a playful smile in the photos. I wonder if she thinks it is funny that I nearly lost my dinner when seeing this photo.

Yeah, I know I'm mean, and frankly I don't care. Take pictures of hot celebs buying Las Vegas Real Estate and you will make me much happier. These non-air brushed photos really aren't going to get Britney any new fans that live in a house with out wheels.

Online Shopping Coupons

There is nothing better about online shopping than the array of coupon codes you can find to get huge discounts on products and services. Ever since Amazon came along and friends have directed me to online coupon sites I've never really had to pay full price for an online purchase. The more available coupons there are on the site the better. I prefer to shop online so anytime I need something I go to Coupon Chief first to see if there is a discount available for whatever it is I want to buy. Usually there is since they have over 1,000 stores with deals, codes, and coupons.

I buy a lot of stuff from Dell from time to time and I always have to look and see if there are Dell coupons when I do so. They tend to have quite a few with very good discounts on the things I want to buy. No sense paying full price when it only takes a few clicks to save hundreds of dollars on products and services is there?

RSS Feed Subscribing Campaign

RSS Feeds are an easy way for your readers to keep up with your blog. They are also a great way to increase your traffic. Many of us use Feed Readers regularly, but many have no idea about what RSS Feeds are, or what they can do for you. This list and the links of information in it give you a great way to understand the concept and how to mass subscribe to blog feeds. This blog was added by Internet Serious Business.

***Start Copying Here***

1. Create a post and link back to the person that put you on the list in the first paragraph with a brief thank you and description of why people want to use the campaign. DO NOT copy their paragraph. Write your own unique one and link to their site.

2. Copy the ENTIRE list of Feeds and create an OPML File to import into your feed readers so that you can subscribe to all of the blogs on the list. You will want to read my post entitled Mass RSS Feed Subscribing with an OPML so you understand how to do it. (You will want to copy this link over to your post so those you add know how to do this too.)

3. Copy the ENTIRE list of Feeds AND blogs and put them into your post like they are here. Move the "My Adds" from the blog that added you into the "Originals" lists for each. This list is unique because I want you to be able to copy the feeds with out having to delete the blogs before making the OPML file so I separated the two links into 2 lists.

4. Add any blogs you want to the list with whatever keywords you want. Then get their RSS Feed and add those to the list of Feeds in your "My Adds" section.

5. Publish your post.

6. Comment on the post that originated the list here so that new additions can be subscribed to as well by the lists before yours.

Trump vs. Rosie

Sad to see her go. I just laugh at the way Donald Trump talks about her in interviews. The guy is so personal it is hilarious.

"I know Rosie real well. Unfortunately, she came to my wedding. She ate a lot of cake..." LOL

This guy is really playing this up and it is fantastic. I really think he and Rosie have a scam going, but it is one of the better ones in a while. MAy need to upgrade my Dell Memory keep up with all the videos on Youtube from Trump.

Classic Trump:
