200!! Dividends, Dividends And More Dividends.

I have changed my strategy on Empire Avenue to "Dividends Collection". Currently I'm building a strong portfolio of 100 profiles and with my new limit of 250 I get lots of dividends in return. I really don't care about my profile shares right now, but I do try my best in creating dividends for those who chose to invest in me!

One week passed with my new "strategy" and I have 100k in investment earnings/week. Yesterdays investment earnings were close to 15.000Eaves. Furthermore, I have some really big names in my portfolio like Chris Pirillo, Chris Voss, Bob Warren from ResumeBear etc.

I suggest you check me out and look into my portfolio for some great investments.

Must Watch Movies 2012

Almost a year ago I posted the "Must Watch Movies 2011". Some of them were a disappointment, like Transformers: Dark Of The Moon and Thor. I liked the movies Source Code, Unknown, and Battle LA somewhat. Ah, well. Hollywood tries it's best to meet the needs of movie goers.

Let's see what's in store for 2012, I few candidates for my taste always, if you're into Drama, Romance etc. you're out of luck. Sorry. Here you'll find action packed Adventures and Sci-Fi suggestions.

I will list them in an ascending order of Release Dates. So let's start.

Veedcast.com | Alternative Video Sharing

Veedcast.com is a new way of sharing videos from Youtube.

Imagine this:
You are at home and at your computer browsing the web, all of a sudden a skype call comes in. You accept the call and start chatting with your friend. Then your friend is starting to text message you on skype with links from Youtube. You now have to click on every link and open up a new tab on your browser wait for the page to load and then watch the video. And if you have friends that are quite active on Youtube you get a lot of links this way.

This is where Veedcast comes in. You simply take that Youtube link, post it on Veedcast, then Veedcast creates a "Channel" with a unique identifier and you simply share this link to your friends, and voila! Your friends can now watch your channel and see what you want to share with them. In an almost perfect sync. You take control of what video you want to show them, when to start it, seek to a particular position of time in the video and pause the video to comment on it.

Veedcast is now in Beta so go ahead and try it out with your friends.

The steps to follow are:

1. Find a Youtube video and copy the URL.
2. Open up the page www.veedcast.com :p
3. Paste the link on the input box below the Logo and click "Create a Veedcast Channel"
4. There you'll find a link below the video player with your unique identifier and social media buttons to share on Facebook and Twitter.
5. Share the link and start posting videos.

Have fun!
