Ever since the day I registered this Domain I've been dreaming of developing a true "Live" Casino that integrated my 2 favorite things, beaches and casinos. Just like the old IBM commercial "where are the flying cars? we were supposed to already have flying cars...." I feel the same way about the convergence of media and online gambling, it's just not completely there yet, at least not the way I envision it, which is to create a virtual reality integrated with real reality. My day will come... meanwhile, checkout CasinoBeach.com

I hand-coded and published my first HTML web page in 1993, ever since then my thinking about what I should be doing with my web-publishing passion, has vacillated between projects for helping disadvantage children in third-world countries, or providing information and services to help wealthy North Americans invest offshore.

Living in South Florida at that time, every day we watched images, or in one case I eye-witnessed, Haitian families coming ashore in home-made rafts because they were so desperate to escape the poverty of their Island Nation. It prompted me to start-up "PC on Earth" a non-profit organization that would find ways to get information technology to schools in the Caribbean.

An interesting name for a story, as it compels the reader to read more and begs the question; end of what? I wish it were the end of the war or anything more than just the end of August, alas there's more; I've reached the end of my silence not the end of reason and decided to commence publishing articles again. Back in June when I stopped writing for the Silicon Palms Blog I made a decision that I'd wait until I found some clarity about my business before I started publishing again. See, I was conflicted by the blur of the lines between my life and my career and what was the meaning of either.

Now that it's a blue moon I've run out of excuses for not writing more often, especially since both business and personal life have been very exciting and rewarding. It's now time to step-up my efforts towards gaining more momentum.

If you were waiting for the opportune moment ....
that was it.

Davos Switzerland is famous for ground breaking advancements in social programs. Each year technology has become more and more center stage at the schmooze fest for global titans, although this year Iraq was also high on the agenda.

Last night I watched a special on CNN live from Davos, hosted by Becky Anderson, called "Our Networked World" with a live audience who each had a wireless device to provide polling to questions asked during the discussion. The panel was a good mix of industry experts and the topic was Web 2.0.

Rumor has it that Ladbrokes of London are in discussion to purchase 888.com for about the same number of millions of dollars (888). How fitting that the largest global gaming company buys the largest online casino, just as I predicted they would do, after they divested themselves of the U.S. Hilton Hotel franchise.

...nothing gained.

I needed to sign up to another MLM program as much as I need another hole in my head but having received a message from an old trusted friend named Julio, describing a very simple program, that was conceived and launched by a mutual friend, who lays claim to having made fortunes and set records in Network Marketing (verifiable). Plus, the product was something I actually needed, so I joined and became the 1,777th member, 17 days from launch.

At long last, a major breakthrough on the Winning Streak project to create a Loyalty Reward Network for the online gaming industry is about to happen. There's nothing online that can compare to the Winning Streak Players Club.

The Jackpot Factory $250,000 Summer Splash bonanza is gearing up to be the summer’s hottest event! Play August 1 through September 4 and earn points by depositing, wagering and winning at any game you enjoy. Summer Splash will cool you off every week with loads of cash prizes.

In the last few years I've joined over two dozen affiliate programs, mostly in the offshore gaming industry but some in online trading and others in banking and payment services. Of all the banners and text links I've tried across my network of sites the one that converts the most lookers to players is from Brightshare called All Jackpots Casino.

Go ahead click on it, I know you want to.

Today marks the beginning of a new project, as an affiliate to the world's largest Independent Financial Advisory group, specializing in the offshore marketplace and operating in more than 30 countries around the globe. The website Invest Offshore has been slated for a re-design and now with the distinct purpose of promoting information for and about investing offshore with deVere & Partners.

I'm enjoying this blog more everyday, although I don't know who reads what I write or if it serves any purpose. Today I added some advertising under the heading "Propaganda", which is a great word isn't it? Maybe you know that I publish other blogs and web sites? and perhaps you've figured-out that this one is a personal project and not really commercial. However, there's a purpose to every page that I publish and that's to improve my communication skills, so it's all just propaganda.

On my very first day of joining Text Link Ads I made money, not a jackpot at $7 for the balance of the first month but 'what the heck!' it's a good start considering I can sell up to 9 more links, on a 50/50 revenue share. Potentially I could earn $100 per month (on average) per web site and I own 11 web sites.

Their system is simple, very clean and easy to understand. Seems fair and as I proved to myself, it works fast. So I say to you "go for it!" Monetize Your Site

In all my years of being involved in sales and marketing, I've never witnessed a more dynamic combination than what we're experiencing with the growth on 888.biz MLM program. Tomorrow will be 2 weeks since the official launch and we've set records for growth and most likely for volume of sales, as there was $300k of new player deposits in the first 4 days alone.

The company computer sweeps the system and provides detailed reports on the 10th, the 20th, and the 25th of each month, plus performs the overall reconciliation on the 1st day of each month, but because of the processing of player deposit we depend on the 3 reports throughout the month to evaluate total group activity.
