.. and Entrecard claims that it can make you money. Interested? Read on.

What is Entrecard?
Entrecard is your Internet Business Card which you can use to advertise on any blog in the network for FREE!

Don’t be mislead by the word “FREE” .. it just means that you do not have to fork out money to advertise on other blogs but instead you will pay using Entrecard credits. So it is not entirely FREE as it claimed but it is a fair deal since a lot of people are reluctant to pay to advertise.

You cannot buy Entrecard credits, you have to earn it by visiting blogs and dropping your card for other bloggers. (more…)

I noticed there is a next-previous button on one of my Adsense Leadeboard ad units. Out of curiosity, I clicked on the next button and the existing text link ads will be replaced with new ads without refreshing the page (Ajax style).

I guess it is still in testing phase because I have only seen it once so far… and I managed to take a screenshot of the ad units.

.. after Nuffnang and Advertlets, that is! I got to know GrabMyAds when they invited me to join their network via email. Hmmm… where did they GrabMyEmail in the first place?

I wrote a short email to GMA to enquire if they accept non-blog websites as publishers and to my surprise, I received a reply from them in less than 24 hours. Not bad for a new startup company.. unlike my experience with the other 2 blog ad networks.

• Nuffnang - Slow at first but now it is getting better.
• Advertlets - Slow as well and it is getting worse.

Their service impresses me and I signed up with them immediately. ( Update: Check out Comment #6.. from GMA’s representative )

Google is all set to challenge Wikipedia in providing a platform to build an online ‘encyclopedia’. Google Knol is open to anyone who possesses useful information and would like to share with others.

Unlike Wikipedia, the Knol pages are authored and users will not be able to edit the information on a topic without the approval of the author. However, they can submit the edits to the author for approval using the available community tools. Ratings, questions, comments, and additional information can be submitted as well through these tools.

It is confirmed that Knol results will be listed on Google’s main page, likely to be at the top of the page, and this indicates Google’s intention to challenge Wikipedia. There is more from Google…

At the discretion of the author, a knol may include ads. If an author chooses to include ads, Google will provide the author with substantial revenue share from the proceeds of those ads.

WidgetBucks has launches International CPM ads today which will be included in all Widgetbucks widgets.

The new system, which uses geolocation technology, will determine the location of your visitors before displaying the ads. Visitors from US/Canada publisher will see the regular pay-per-click (PPC) widget while visitors from outside USA/Canada should be able to notice the new CPM ads.

I will try out the new system to see if it worthwhile for non-US/Canada in continuing this program. Subscribe to my blog for updates!
