I wish they had these for computer...

CRSunrise @CRSunrise (2981) • United States 30 Dec 08

I wish there was a such things as a Wi-Fi plug for the computer. Rather than to have a cord draped from your computer, going to a plug, especially when you're on the computer when it's recharging. I wish there was something like...

ThePaintGuru Hmm... such a thing would have to use induction. I know there are devices where you just set them next to the charger and they charge, but they have to be pretty close to each other (or else you'd end up with a incredibly powerful magnetic field and a lot of...

ThePaintGuru Actually, yes you can. Contact them and tell them you will report their copyright infringement to their host if they don't take the material down ASAP. If they don't respond, send an email to their blog host (looks like a blogger blog to me). Inform them that...

ediyanto @ediyanto (233) • United States 30 Dec 08

ThePaintGuru I probably couldn't, I need variety in what I eat. If I ate pizza for more than 2 meals in a row I'd start to get really bored with it really fast. Not to mention the fact that it doesn't provide all the nutrients that are needed to be healthy, like you said.

ThePaintGuru Hmm well I joined Ciao about a week before they decided to stop paying per review and I made $7, which I was very excited about. Since they changed the payment system I have not written anything since, because I don't want to spam everyone with PMs saying...

With this cold weather, is it really global warming?

aaamine @aaamine (134) • United States 29 Dec 08

Recent times, global warming has become a bigger social and environmental issue. Everywhere you can see people collecting funds to fight against global warming... But on the other side, we are witnessing record low and coldest...

ThePaintGuru Huh, it's pretty warm here. I remember when I was a lot younger we used to have colder winters in Pennsylvania. Still, global warming is a long term, global trend that doesn't necessarily show up uniformly everywhere at the same time. At least that is my...

How Honest Are You?

lynnemg @lynnemg (4529) • United States 28 Dec 08

Hypothetical situaion.... You are in line at the grocery store, and the person in front of you accidentally drops a hundred dollar bill. No one is around, so no one saw it but you.What would you do? Would you pick it up and put it...

ThePaintGuru I'd definitely give it to them. For one thing I would feel really guilty if I kept it, whoever lost it might have fallen on hard times really needed that $100. Also I don't need money that badly. It might be different I guess if I were really poor.

Do you see of myLotting as blogging?

richiem @richiem (3644) • Philippines 28 Dec 08

Just a simple question: Who among you consider myLotting as blogging? I think myLotting and blogging has a lot of similarities. First is the discussion which can be your blog post. Next is the responses which are the blog...

ThePaintGuru Usually it's not very similar at all. On a blog you have more control over what people see, you can keep all your posts together easily, and you can moderate. Also, successful blogs tend to have much higher quality writing than I or most other mylotters...

ThePaintGuru Try the sites on my profile. I don't like pay to click or pay to read either, all of mine are ones where you sign up for offers. Basically you just put in a temporary email or fake name and address. I have made over $10 already from the first one (Prizelive)...

ThePaintGuru We never donate money through the phone either. I understand the importance of giving to charity but you never know who is really going to be using your credit card when they call. I guess if it was a real call he might have been genuinely frustrated, with the...

ThePaintGuru Of course it's not. There is still Google Video (although Google now owns youtube) which hosts some videos separately. There is Yahoo Video, and AOL video I think (ugh, AOL), and about a million others such as Blip tv, Revver, Metacafe, Veoh... All you need to...

pinkzebragirl @messageme (2821) • United States 28 Dec 08

ThePaintGuru Yes I use Firefox, and one of the things I have come to rely on is the spell checker. Also I couldn't live without tabbed browsing, which admittedly IE now has. The really indispensable thing about FF is the security, though. I feel safer browsing with it...

Windows 7 - the BETTER Vista?

hardcoresata @hardcoresata (16) • Philippines 25 Dec 08

Vista has been the most criticized OS of all time. This is because of the fact that it eats up more RAM than it should, not to mention the worthless bundles of apps and widgets Microsoft included. PC users who have used Vista...

ThePaintGuru No, I probably wouldn't, although my friends would be too polite to ask. Maybe if someone was having a hard time, unemployed, or something and I owned a shop then yes. Maybe if I ran a service or restaurant, but it wouldn't be like "come on in anytime and get...
