Making an internet research on today's life on the net, our journalists found many things people do these days in their casual internet life worthy to mention here. One of those things, which hit the internet with a big 'WHAM!' is blogging. Most of the so called bloggers are in between the age of 12 to 45, though the majority of them are from 16 to 21. What is a blog, you may ask? A blog is like a website, it's just easier to edit and maintain, a website where you can write posts about who you are, what you do, what interests you, and get comments, people's reactions and even find friends or fans. Some people use their blogs to earn some money, and some of them are doing pretty well implementing affiliate links into their posts, adding ads to their blog. Some earn a living just for writing good articles on their blog. Two of the examples of those kinds of blogs are http://piggybanksavings.blogspot.com and http://my-first-day-cyb3r.blogspot.com they both belong to the same person. He writes about what interests him the most - Stand Up Comedy and making money online. We found out that both of the blogs are worth reading, for one of them is really fun to read and there even are some videos of famous comedians doing their stand up routines, and the other one contains already tested systems of how to make money online. The information there is very valuable if you use it right. ### Contact: Mantas Mileris Pasiles 57 - 43 Kaunas 3031 Lithuania mileris@gmail.com 37060742855 go there (offsite link)
