Hi everyone! Hope you all had a great week. On my end, things are finally starting to get better. Got a new ISP, fixed hacked websites and managed to be more active on the social web. Have to admit that it has been a nightmare for the last couple of weeks. We’ll see how it goes 🙂
Anyway, if don’t know already, today marks the official launch of Hesham’s “Best Selling Affiliate Products Blogging Contest”. As with everything Hesham does when hosting contests, this one, is quite interesting due to a number of reasons, the most compelling being the topic. If you like to participate in blogging contests and get the chance to win $1.000, I suggest you head over there to find out more.
BTW, this weeks video is not about Matt Cutts (sorry). Decided to favor Guy Kawasaki’s interview from Chris Brogan. In this interview, among other things, Guy mentions why he favors Google+ over other social media platforms. Must watch.

Another great roundup, I have read most of them and I am really impressed from the indepth and to the point advices of “I Need $1000! THE 30-Day Plan for Making Fast Internet Income” . It explains everything a newbie should start doing in order to make his/her first money online, thanks for sharing…

I’ve switched isp a few times in my day. The process can vary from fast and simple, to a total pain not nearly as much as dealing and fixing hacked websites though. Hope you got it squared away now. Also it seems like there has been quite a few Facebook timeline threads the past few days or week. Some people like it, and others hate it.
