Sex cams are pretty popular in Eastern Europe. You could try that.

:p

idk about blogging tho. never tried it nor do i follow any. but if you garner a decent following i don't see why not. the topic you want to talk about is the hard part.

I wonder if blogging would pay off. Any experience or thoughts?
Depends on what you want. If you want a personal blog, those are pretty easy. (all blogs are time consuming, which is why I don't have one). If you want a professional blog to help you get a leg up in whatever industry you're looking at then those can be pretty difficult. You have to know what you're talking about, be able to write in a way that your peers understand as well as people who might be interested in your services, while keeping up to date with all industry content, as well as providing content to regular readers on a consistent and timely basis.

It's not for everyone but if you've got the time, go for it. Greg as a pretty good blog that I enjoy reading, ask him for some pointers.

There's little money in content creation overall. There's a 1% who can make a good living, and the 99% who scrape by with a little cash here and there. The upside seems to be flexible hours and location of work, mainly.

How should it pay off? Also, what would you blog about?
Because people earn money while doing it :p

And for the second question, I have no idea.

As for the movie, I forgot about it :D but I have to catch up with others first before watching it.

I did read Greg's blog in the past. But I never thought about doing it myself, was pretty much wondering how people handle it. I know it's not easy, though.

Do you have any suggestion for anything over the Internet?

Might as well try out something as I have a lot of free time and getting a job is pretty much impossible, I feel like giving up right now.

Pay off in what way? Emotionally? Financially?
Screw emotions.

I intentionally lose money on that blog though. :D

I like your entrepreneurial spirit. Keep that.

I suggesting picking a topic you can get passionate, and even controversial, about. It will make for your best writing.

And make sure there are people in the field who stand to profit from the subject matter: for ads, promotions, name recognition, etc.

I think it's really, really difficult to earn money blogging, as the others are saying. Also, you should blog about what I was suggesting. :agree:
