I'm a Millennial that didn't quite get social media

When I was but a wee little lad internet was around. You just had to sit at the computer and listen to the internet dialup tone, then boom! You've got mail! Then I would click, wait, click, and wait. Computers were so slow. You had to have patience to work with them that's for sure. As a kid I didn't wanna have patience. I liked to go outside and have fun.
Sure I signed up for Myspace when that was in. I enjoyed making my own page of comedy filled with as they are called now "Memes." I also signed up for facebook so I could connect to my friends. The only real part I really couldn't get was how to make my friends connect to me.
I've always thought that I was such an average person that no one would really be interested in what I have to say. Now that I've grown a little older I realize now that just by putting my funny Memes up it makes people wanna connect with me.
I think often about making a blog. My hardest part is getting the nerve to pick an idea. I feel like there are already a million others out there who know more about any subject I pick. Suppose that's a part of the learning curve. It would be really fascinating to make money though one, but really I just want a place to express the things I enjoy.

I first use internet 1999 the dial up. But since 2012 I only use smartphones to make money online. I have a personal blog on Blogger.com and Wordpress.com. I bought domains from Namecheap for my Blogger blogs and monetized them by displaying affiliate banners/widgets.
You can start a general/personal blog and apply at amazon affiliate program. In the Philippines I promote products from Lazada because it is the easiest affiliate program in Asia.
