BlogPayz: Get Paid to Blog and Get Out of Debt

BlogPayz.com is another paid to blog site that I recently found. If you're new to blogging or your blog lost it's page rank, you may want to try this one out. Why? Read on.

How can I make money with BlogPayz?
BlogPayz is free to register. Once you sign up, it's easy to add your blog. After that, you're done. You just wait to get an offer.

How will BlogPayz pay me?
You must have a paypal account. When you complete an assigned task, you will receive payment on the 10th of the following month. For example, if you write several reviews in the month of May you can expect payment on the 10th of June.

How much do they pay for reviews?
All the prices are automated. I just signed up and haven't received any offers, so I haven't been able to see if they're rates are competitive with those of other sites.

Am I expected to write only positive reviews for advertisers?
Their site states they require neutral articles. If you don't want to write for a specific advertiser, reject it. Why? They state negative reviews will be rejected and reassigned to another blogger. Don't waste your time, unless you really want to share your negative experience. Don't expect to get paid, though.

Getting a Secure Broadband Network

As the penalties are lifted, I'm back in the swing of blogging. There's one little problem, which many adults of kids understand...sharing bandwidth. There is also the security of your network. My kids have computers and consoles that cause the system to crawl when in use simultaneously. Thrilling. With my limited knowledge of computers, I asked someone at a popular chain about it. They were very helpful in explaining how systems work and the appropriate network needed.

Discussing the issues with my kids, they broguht up some very important issues about their school's network. How are they able to have webcams with teachers and students from other countries participating? Furthermore, how is it that such a large campus with multiple buildings keep their systems running smoothly with optimized security? Of course that made me wonder about the following question.

What if you need secure broadband network services on a larger scale?
There are companies that provide secure broadband network services on a larger scale for institutions of education. One such company is Trillion. They have an informative site that explains the problems that arise with such a heavy exchange of information. Watch their video that explains the challenges faced by large networks and the solutions they provide. Their site states they are the largest national competitive service provider of fixed licensed wireless and fiber WANs for K-12 school districts in the United States.

What can a system like this accomplish?
They help districts manage students online portfolios. My children each have a portfolio that they access from school with a special number and password. Power Point presentations are saved there, as well as other projects that are assigned.
Another interesting aspect of my district is that they have begun to implement sakai. It is a system that allows students to log in and complete their homework assignments online. My daughter The Diva (the vegan/environmentalist) thought it was a great idea. It saves trees..she says. However, it brings up a lot of issues. For example, it pressures families to have broadband services instead of dialup (or no internet access at all). That's a whole other story.

Systems like Trillion's have many more pros than cons. They can greatly enhance a school's security and increase their academic reach. In these times of technology, it's good to know that schools are taking precautions to protect our children, while taking major strides to provide a competitive education.

What was the final outcome? I have to upgrade my system. I'm glad that things have picked up because it's not going to be cheap for me...
