Portal For Everyone!
Have any of you out there ever heard of metaRL? I haven’t really ever heard much about them either until I came across their site tonight. They’re a portal for everyone who visits virtual worlds. They offer you the chance to earn free currency for these other virtual worlds sites. You can even earn free habbo credits, to use on habbo’s site. They way they do it is you can participate in games, contests, and more to earn your favorite virtual world currency. I did check out their frequently asked questions to see if I could understand them a little more. The very first question asked on the site is “What is metaRL?” The answer to that was “metaRL is a portal for everyone who visits virtual worlds. You can participate in games, surveys, tasks, and contests and earn virtual world currency.” Anyway, check the site out if this is something that interests you. And make sure you do your research on the site before joining.
Popular Online Hangout!
One of the most popular online hangouts’s, MySpace is getting into the online download business. Their nearly 120 million users will be able to listen to free music, as much as they want. Now there’s a catch, you can only listen to the music through your computer using your MySpace account. And of course there will be ads you will be looking at. By offering this free to MySpace users will definitely hurt other online music sellers like iTunes. That’s because if you like the song you’re listening to you can buy it for as low as 79 cents from Amazon’s site. And the thing that will set this service apart from iTunes is that you can download the songs as many times as you want. Plus the song will work on any MP3 player. I think iTunes is going to be in a little bit in trouble here. The recording labels are loving this new service. They’re hoping this will bring their numbers back in line. I read that CD sales where a little over $12 billion in the late 1990’s. Today they almost reach $6 billion. That’s a huge drop in sales, which is why recording labels love this new service.
Good Times!
Tonight I feel like a change is in order. Lately I’ve written a lot about what’s been happening in our economy. And you know what, it’s kind of bringing me down. So here’s a little change, and I hope it puts you in a good mood. I came across a site tonight called Howl at the Moon. If you’ve never heard of this company you just might want to click on the link in this post. Anyway, Howl at the Moon is a very successful dueling piano nightclub. They have eleven locations across the country, so make sure you check the site for a location near you. These guys have been in business since 1990. They have a Houston piano bar location that you and your friends would have a blast at. So if you’re looking for a great club to visit with your friends make sure you look these guys up. I know if one of these locations was near my home I would be visiting them. And they even offer corporate events for all you business people out there. So if you like what you have read so far you gotta check the site out. You just might find a new place to hang out at.

Halloween’s Coming!
With the summer almost over it’s time to start thinking of those beautiful fall days. And with those fall days comes the traditional Halloween day. In my neighborhood it’s like a big Halloween party. We get hundreds of kids coming through the area, so all my neighbors and I all sit outside to hand out candy. If we don’t wait outside the doorbell would never stop ringing. Last year we went through about 300 pieces of candy in 2 hours. I had kids sitting on my lawn because they needed to rest from walking the area. I really don’t mind all the little kids coming through. I like it when the little kids are wearing some great looking costumes. I found a site so that you can check out some great halloween costumes like the little kids in my area were wearing. And I’m not kidding when I say this, even some adults where dressed out with their kids. And on that site they even have some great looking costumes for adults. Here’s a few great looking Pirate Costumes I would consider getting for myself. A pirate costume would fit me to a tee, that’s who I am, a pirate - arrrr! If you do purchase a costume from these guys use this code PPP05BLOG2008 to get 5% off TILL OCTOBER 10th, 2008.
