(kontera earning with the detail covered, I’m not sure if I can display it to public)

After 8 months waiting patiently, finally my kontera earning is breaking USD100 mark. That means, I will receive my first ever payment from Kontera next month. Yahooooo!!

On June 17th, I have posted 1 article about top kontera earner that I found from my searching on the net. At that time my earning stood at USD49. However, within 2 months, I manage adding about USD50 more, averaging USD25 per month. Not bad… and I also have decided to keep my Kontera account forever as long as they exist.

In this 2 months also, I have added 2 more websites to display kontera ads, but the contribution from them is very little at the moment. I plan to add more new websites to my kontera account in future since it looks, that kontera has no so called ’smart pricing’ as Adsense or Yahoo for less traffic websites.

According to Paula Neal Mooney, after you earn USD 100 or in a program for about 1 months, they’ll give you affiliate link to promote them. I haven’t asked it from them yet, but will do it very soon.

For those who have no idea about Kontera is, head over to their website to watch the demo. Who has doubt if Kontera can be displayed on the same page with adsense, rest assured that it is allowed, at least at the moment. However, please review Google Adsense TOS from time to time or their official blog for the latest news and update. Who know if google change their games in future.

I’m interested to know how much you earn from Kontera. If you’re willing to share it or you know who earn from it , do not hesitate to post it on the comment section below. I would like to have another round of top kontera earner soon. Long live Kontera!!

blogger outage

Blogspot base blog appeared to have experienced outage around 7am CST today. I’m in the middle of browsing one of my blog when suddenly it was unreachable. I thought something wrong with my connection, but it is not. I browse some blogspot blogs, all of them are unreachable.

However, I didn’t see any announcement from their status page. Let see how soon they will get it fixed

apple iPhone finally unlocked

This story might be old by the time I post it here. I know very well, internet is moving very fast. I came across to unlocked iPhone yesterday evening when I’m looking for free ftp software. I’m not a gadget geek , but having read this post made me think how they do it? When I read TheStar (local newspaper) yesterday, there is a picture of 1 teenager holding unlocked iPhone, I know, it’s time digging this story.

I have posted one post about iPhone earlier (not a very good post actually), when it just launched, but I never thought it will be unlocked this fast. That teenager called George Hotz from NJ, is the first person in the world who successfully unlocked iPhone. Clap!! He has posted steps by steps how to do it on his blog as well. And his first unlocked iPhone was traded with Nissan 350z and 3 8gb iPod. Nice stuff!

Earlier today, I read from Engadget , 1 team called iPhoneSimsFree manage to unlocked iPhone using piece of software, which would be much easier work (but it is not free) than what George Hotz has done. If you browse over to their website, they have started offering unlocking service and on top of that, they’re offering it free of charge for the top 3 applicants.. only.

On a local scene, I saw there is 1 thread in lowyat.net discussing about this matter. I’m not reading through in detail, but I think I saw someone has posted a picture of iPhone with Digi sim card. Well done guys!! I believe, very soon, we’ll started to see iPhone sold as AP set all over the place :)

The good thing about all this development is, those who’re dreaming of getting iPhone (especially in other region than US) won’t have to wait until next year. Get someone to buy it from US (or ebay), and unlocked it using iPhoneSimFree service.
