First there were blogs (these are web logs for people who don’t know or if you live in Scotland and the blog is small - its a Wee Blog), but blogging wasn’t enough, people wanted to make money from it. So they created blogs to make money, then people created blogs about how to create blogs that make money. Well now I think its time to create a blog about how to create a how to make money blogging blog (Or something like that).

Probably by now you are asking yourself what this post is all about? Perhaps Im just in a random mood, or perhaps I was searching around the internet looking at blogs and every other blog I looked at seemed to be about how to make money blogging. Sorry, but perhaps im missing the point here, is this what blogging is about. Okay, its nice if you have a popular blog to make a bit of cash from it, but surely before wanting to make money, you need to want to blog? or want to share something with the world?
For those who are really interested in blogging, not just making money from it, I suggest you check out delusionsofgrandeur.org of particular interest is his request for help with his new blog TheArtofBlogging.net. Seems like a move in the right direction for blogging, good luck with this

$3 Quadrillion is a lot of money, yet clearly one person believes they deserve this much because that is the amount that they are seeking in damages from the federal government over damage from the failure of levees and flood walls following the Aug. 29, 2005, hurricane. The total number — $3,014,170,389,176,410 — is the dollar figure so far sought from some 489,000 claims and this is the price tag that victim have put on the suffering from the damges caused by Hurricane Katrina.
Okay its true you can’t put a value on loss of life, but if you had to would it be $3 Quadrillion.
The Nintendo Wii became the must have item for Christmas 2007 this year So kids and adults alike were pestering there nearest and dearest for one.
Unfortunately for many who were desperate for a Wii, the door was clearly engaged, which left two options.
Not getting one
Paying a premium to buy one from Amazon, Ebay or some other seller who decided to capitalise on this shortage.
In fact many retailers were slapping on huge margins so they only needed to sell one Wii to make the profit of three. On Amazon prices seemed to go up every refresh - At one point I noticed it reach over £260 ($520) and saw other retailers selling packages for £400+. Back in the beginning of November there were reports of a chronic shortage and many being disappointed this christmas - BBC News Story on Wii Shortage .Okay, call me a sceptic/skeptic (depending on you spelling preference), but something doesn’t quite sound right here. Visiting Amazon, not once did it say there was none available, or an ebay search never told me ‘no results found’. In fact just before christmas one retailer on Amazon had over 90 Wii’s in stock at ‘only’ (note: Sarcasm) a £90 premium ($180). Perhaps rather than being a severe shortage, some creative marketing and drip feeding the market with just enough to keep people’s hopes up that they may be able to get hold of one.The funny thing about Christmas is retailers, manufacturers, etc.. know this is one of there busiest times of the year. They have twelve months to prepare to make sure they are stocked up with enough so that the majority of kids can be spoilt with far more things that they need or deserve.
So for 2007 the GetBuried Tomestone award is proudly given to Nintendo, for making kids unhappy and parents poorer. Happy New Year Nintendo, keep up the good work.
