WONDERFUL...

I keep getting banner ads across my "My Multiply" page. I get one of two ads: The first is some of the current eBay listings for Scarface items, and the second is "singlemuslim.com", "USA's LEADING MUSILM MARRIAGE SITE." 

I know why this happens. The ads are targeted to your content. I have a sound byte of Scarface in my music section, and I constantly mention Muslims in my blogs about the Middle East.

Who feels like signing up at singlemuslim.com? I bet all of the woman's profile pictures are just of them in their burkas...!

I also saw THIS story yesterday. It made me scream "WHAT?!?" I can't see that there is that big of a market for these I mean, yes, Islam is a huge religion, but don't all new cars come with compasses and almost all cars have glove compartments! Did you also see that they're in talks with Volkswagen AG, (German) and General Motors, (American), to "turn around its fortunes"? I'm thinking if the sanctions work, GM and VW could be held liable if they participate with this company since it would be working with Iran. The company lost over $150 million last year, though, so there's hope that it will go down the drain.

NOTICE

I was an active blogger on Yahoo!'s Y!360 blogging service, however it has been announced that that service will be disbanded. Accordingly, I fled to a new home with my friends. We found it at Multiply.com The address for my blog there is zebaron.multiply.com It is unfortunate that that URL was used here, therefor I am known here as "zebaronjosef.blogspot.com." Not my first choice... things happen.
 My name, as you can guess, is Josef/-ph. I will not be blogging here actively, however, since I have a Google account for
gmail, I set this blog up as an emergency page of sorts. Multiply allows me to mirror my posts to other sites, one of which is here. Since, as I've already mentioned, I have a Google account, I took advantage of that.

You've gotta be smarter than your computer.

TESTING... TESTING

I tried something new tonight. I went over to Blogger, owned by Google, and activated my account. Since I have a Google account for Google Talk and GMail (yes, I'm avoiding Yahoo!), all I needed to do was activate the blogger portion. The reason I did this was for my own sense of mind and to test out a feature of Multiply that 360 did not have.

I'm going to be mirroring, or cross-posting, all of my new posts. That means that whatever I post over there (nothing) will post here, and whatever I post here should post there. That way, I'll have a back-up and an archive. It's just extra precautions.

Hopefully, this post will mirror to Blogger. We'll see.

My page over there is nothing much, but if you want to visit me, I'm at zebaronjosef.blogspot.com. Anything "better" was already taken, oddly enough. I'll get back to you guys through a blog if this is successful.

Hopefully I'll have more blogs for you this coming week.
