I'm always thinking about how to make money on the Internet!!
A few years ago I created my first website. It was a site with information about my birthplace, Curacao. I created this site to inform people about this beautiful little island. After that I created some other websites. Creating websites became a hobby and I enjoyed creating and updating all my sites! It didn't matter that my tracker showed that I only received 5 visitors a day! But that all changed when I received my first check for $36.89. So it was true what they were saying, you can make money on the Internet!! Creating websites was no longer a hobby, but business. I removed all websites that were not receiving enough visitors and I will only create a site if I think that it will get a descent amount of visitors. When I'm at work I'm always thinking about how to make more money on the Internet, when I'm at home I'm ALWAYS behind my computer. I don't have time for my girlfriend or daughter any more (you should hear them complain!). I don't call or go out with my friends anymore, I check my stats at ValueClick more than twice a day so that I know how my sites are doing! I don't want to go on vacation because they don't have any computer in the hotel rooms!
What is wrong with me?? Am I addicted to Internet?? |

Yeah it sounds like you're pretty much hooked.
I don't know anyone who would put the internet first before family. So if your house was burning down, you would save your puter before your sister? http://geekvillage.com/ubb/smile.gif ------------------ Free Tutorials http://www.tutorialindex.com/ |

Heehee denasio,
I am going to Singapore for one week trip next week w/o laptop but I am not afraid of anything. But I do understand. It's not a hobby anymore. It's serious business which brings you handsome money! |

denasio, first lose the daughter and girlfriend. They're not gonna incrase your click through ratio, and they just waste bandwidth.
Uhh, nevermind, that didn't make sense. ------------------ -Bryan |

You only check your stats TWO times a day? Can't possibly be hooked then, I check mine 2 - 3 times an hour and I don't consider myself to be addicted, YET http://geekvillage.com/ubb/tongue.gif. I agree with the laptop thing though, and a cellular style modem, those sound bad *** ...
