Making Money Online By Publishing Media on Triond

I know this sounds like some kind of spam article but I want to detail my experience with the article publishing company Triond. Triond is like other paid content farms such as Associated Content and EHow with a couple of key differences.

First Trion allows Minors to publish articles so High Schoolers are able to make money off of their articles. Also Triond only makes sure that your article is original material it doesn’t care how well it is written. This means that many of their articles are sub par when compared to other pay-to-write sites. On the positive side, this allows one to publish more articles in a shorter span of time and therefore make more profit.

Just like any other pay to write site Triond has its own way to pay you. They base your income off of how much ad money you make. You may only get a few cents for every hundred page views because of this but in the long run these small payments can add up. One good thing about Triond is that you can cash out with as little as fifty cents when using PayPal (it’s $50 for check).

Unfortunately it is very easy to waste your time writing for sites such as these, which only pay well if your article receives thousands of hits. However it doesn’t hurt to write a couple of articles a month while watching some crappy reality television. Here’s my first article on Triond for example.

Raybans and Macbooks: A Journey On Becoming A Hipster

This is a guide on how to be a hipster. Or maybe it’s a tale of how not to be a hipster. With these easy steps you can achieve victory before achieving was cool. Just follow these simple steps.
Hipster-ariel
Firstly, you have to look the part. Hipsters like many types of clothing but generally fall into certain set sartorial statements. Invest in skinny jeans, you have to allow every pre-distressed piece of fabric cling to your body like a wet bathing suit. Buy clothing two sizes two small. Your t-shirts shouldn’t go past your waist. Preferably they barely even touch your pants. The t-shirts also should have some snarky comment in fancy font. They shouldn’t be from any mainstream brand, the more obscure the better. Just start going to thrift stores it doesn’t matter how bad the clothes look when you are making such profound statements. Another part of hipster fashion is the man bag. It’s like a purse but with ragged fabric to make you look outdoorsy.

Then you need to work on your transportation methods. Bikes work the best, or even public transit. Don’t drive cars they’re too mainstream. If you have to drive car get a hybrid. At least make it look like you care about the environment. Your bike has to be a certain type too. The Bicycle should be the oldest one you can find.

You will have serious hipster cred if you start riding an eighteenth century velocipede around your college campus.

Once you have the basics down you need to start accessorizing. Start with your choice of sunglasses. Ray-bans are always a hipster staple. Always have them on even if you are inside. Because you’re too cool to be exposed to the harsh artificial lighting that hurts the environment. To tie everything up buy yourself a Macbook. Hipsters use MacBooks and there is only once exception to that rule. If you want to be ironic get some clunky ten-year old ThinkPad. Never break the computer rule otherwise your hipster card will be revoked. You will never be able to set foot in another Starbucks once your hipster card has been taken away from you. You might as well say hello to Dunkin Donuts and start looking for an actual non-ironic job.

All I Wanted Was a TouchPad

All I Wanted Was a TouchPad

The biggest sale I think I have ever witnessed just went down. HP has discontinued their touchpad tablet and have been selling them for only ninety-nine dollars at many online and retail stores. Unfortunately they seem to be sold out everywhere. BestBuy, HP and even Microcenter have no tablets left in stock. Maybe they should produce some more. Also HP’s Small and Medium business store is out of memory as shown in the screen cap above. Quite a catastrophe.

My First Day of Minecraft (Or How I Fail At Minecraft)

Minecraft is the insanely popular sanbox game from the swedish developer Mojang. It is currently running in a beta. But anyone can buy and download it for 25% off of the sale price when it comes out in November. Anyways enough with the boring description. You want to know how I fail at Minecraft.

I tried to avoid the hype but I couldn’t last, the numerous posts on Reddit and advice from people in real life caused me to fall for Minecraft’s creeper claws. I had quite a few problems with the game before it even started. My current computer is a Hp Mini 311. Admittedly, it’s a little under powered. It is one step above a netbook. So I can’t say I expect all games to run at one hundred frames per second. But I said to myself “look the art is all pixelated why would it need a good computer to play it on? That would be silly”. So I forged on entered my paypal details and hoped for the best. (Okay, I actually did check the system requirements but they were innacurate).

I downloaded the game. Logged in and was confronted with a screen to name my world. I quickly deleted the place holder “New World” and replace it with “Brave New World“. Why? Because I can. It takes a minute or two to get everything running and it drops me in the randomly generated game world. I look around and my frame rate drops to nearly zero. I back out of the game and type into google.

After some failed attempts and repeated google searches I found out how to mod the game and add some changes that would increase my frame rate. (if you need some help check out Optifine and one of the various mod loaders. Downloading optifine seemed to help a little bit and increased my framerates. My first of many obstacles was overcome. Now Minecraft was playable.

I booted up Minecraft and landed back in Brave New World. I looked around and said to myself  ”What am  I supposed to do? Where are all those cool creations that are found on youtube?”.  I alt-tabbed out of minecraft and started googling. I found out I need to cut down trees and build a house. Why did nobody tell me this? I started on my way, but was too slow to create a house before dark and I was killed by some exploding thing. Another lesson I learned the hard way. Things kill you in Minecraft. Again I rage quit.

The lure of the building blocks and /r/minecraft brought me back to Minecraft within minutes. I was determined to set everything right. Cue montage. I chopped down trees, I ate my lunch and built myself a wonderful cave home. Like a Minecrafting BOSS.

That’s all I really got done in my first day. I am now in an endless cycle of wishing I actually had enough resources to build something, and then getting lost in the unexplored abyss that is my minecraft world. Hopefully I will find some redstone dust in the next century. Until then I will keep cutting down trees and being killed by random creepers.
