Today I was reading a blog post where one of the commenters mentioned a WordPress application for the iPhone/iPod Touch. This immediately caught my attention as not only do I love to blog but I also love using my iPod Touch. Just combine the two and I am in heaven…well maybe not in heaven but you get the point.

So of course as soon as I read that comment I went searching for the WordPress app on my iPod Touch. It wasn’t hard to find, simply type in WordPress and it is at the top of the list.

The application is free of course and simple to set up. Just type in your blog URL and password. You can also add more than one blog.

I love the clear interface on this. It is very intuitive so you won’t need to read a how-to to start writing up a blog post. In fact, I am writing this post using my iPod Touch and I have only been using this app for the past 5 minutes.

You can view and edit posts, pages and comments quite easily with this app. And images can be easily added.

Once you have finished your post you have the option of previewing it to make sure it all looks pretty and neat.

I have to say that I’m actually finding this a whole lot easier to use than my desktop computer.

This is a big winner for me. Highly recommended!

Today I finally got around to uploading a traffic generating ebook that I have been wanting to finish for a while now. It wasn’t that I was procrastinating…well maybe I was a little…but my main reason for not getting this finished earlier was that I was starting to think that I was really putting too much into it. 

I wanted this to be an ebook with solid content on how to generate traffic to your blog or website.  My only problem was that I was getting up to around 50 different methods and although they were workable I really felt that in the long run you really only need a little more than a handful of methods to really get good solid traffic.

We only use a few traffic generating techniques ourselves so I wasn’t really sure why I was recommending that many methods to others.

So as you can see from the title, the ebook got whittled away to only 7 methods…but don’t be fooled by this small amount – these are truly some of the best methods for getting traffic quickly.

Of course there is a catch…don’t you hate that? To get this ebook you need to sign up for our newsletter. The sign -up is in the sidebar to the right – you can’t miss it. And we suggest that you stay signed up once you download your ebook as we have a lot of other goodies to giveaway plus plenty of tips and helpful advice.

We hope you enjoy the ebook and we would love to hear your comments on this blog post.

For most of the day today one of the trending topics on Twitter has been Tweetie 2 so since I had no idea what it was and I was just a little curious, I clicked on the link to see what the fuss was about.

Well I’m glad I did because I found out that it is an iPhone or iPod Touch application that you can use to access Twitter and do all the things you normally do on Twitter on your iPhone or iPod Touch.

This application isnt free and for me being in Australia it cost $3.99AUD…not a huge amount of money but when you can get other Twitter applications for free you usually think twice before spending. However, the ratings for it looked really good so I decided to take the plunge.

I have only been using it for about 30 minutes and have had a lot of fun so far. This application has so many features that some of the other Twitter applications lack like:

• The ability to handle multiple accounts – I love this…I have quite a few accounts and it makes it so easy to get into each one without having to open a new window and enter passwords. In fact, the accounts are all listed on one page (once you enter them in the first time) and it is just a matter of touching the account with your finger to get into it…so easy!
• An easy to use retweet option – this is so much easier than using twitter itself which doesn’t actually have a retweet option. It’s just a matter of finding the tweet you like and selecting a retweet button.
• There is also a place to draft your tweets and save until later to post.
• You can also update your profile via Tweetie 2.
• There is an offline mode but I haven’t gotten into that yet so not sure what is involved.
• And I just found out that it has the ability to reveal the short urls – in other words you can see the full original url and not just the shortened url.

As I said, I’ve only been using it for about half a hour now but I can definitely recommend this great little app if you have an iPhone or iPod Touch.

UPDATE: Since yesterday I have been using this application quite extensivley and I have to say that I am starting to prefer using my iPod Touch to access Twitter over my desktop computer. In the past, I had used other Twitter applications on my iPod Touch but only used them for when I wasn’t at my computer as although they did the job, they just weren’t as easy to work with as Tweetie 2.

But my absolute favorite part of Tweetie 2 is the ability to swap seemlessly between multiple accounts. I know I have already mentioned it above but anyone who has multiple Twitter accounts will understand how messy it can getting logging  in and out of different accounts.

Other features include:

• the ability to link twitter accounts to your Address Book contacts
• the ability to save searches
• a translation facility to translate tweets
• the ability to add photos and video you have on your iPhone/iPod Touch
• a url shortener
• hashtags

I have to say that I am loving it.

If you have Tweetie 2 tell us your experiences or if you have a question leave a comment below. We answer most comments left on our blog.

I’m a big fan of all things related to The Secret, The Law of Attraction and self improvement in general. So after reading The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles – a book written over 100 years ago – I started looking for anything I could find on the subject. That inevitably brought me to The SGR Program – it was a bit hard to miss actually because if you type ‘Science of Getting Rich’ into Google you invariably see it in the first page of results.

At the time, I wasn’t really interested in paying for a program as there’s so much content available for free on the net but I did sign up for his FREE 7 Lesson Course which I thought was excellent value considering it was free. Even so, I didn’t buy the main course after the 7 lessons were over.

But for some reason I kept finding the Bob Proctor course in my day to day surfing on the net so eventually I took it as a sign to give it a go.

So I’ve signed up and paid the $197 and am currently in the process of downloading all the mp3′s, transcripts and the ebook. There is a lot of information in here. It is going to take a while.

As I am only in the first stages of the program I am not going to write up a review today but instead wait until I get more into it….so stay tuned.

Are you into the Science of Getting Rich or have used the SGR Program? If yes, please leave a comment below. I would love to hear what you have to say and I usually respond to most comments left on my blog.

I am always in awe of those bloggers who are willing to reveal exactly how much they are making online. It’s a pretty brave thing to do really so I respect their honesty…that’s assuming they are totally honest about it and not just making it all up. I mean who hasn’t seen those landing pages where the writer gloats about making $386,212 in 5 minutes….hmmm, those I tend not to believe.

But there are some out there that look like they are giving us the real deal so I have listed them below:

1. The 45 Year Old Millionaire

I have been keeping track of Davids blog for some time now as it is interesting to read his monthly account of just how much he is making. His goal is to become a millionaire by age 45. I’m looking forward to seeing that day!

2. Caroline Middelbrook

Caroline reveals her earnings on a monthly basis and includes all sources of online income. She also includes traffic stats and subscriber stats.

3. David Risley

This is a great informational blog so well worth reading some of the other blog posts and not just David’s monthly reports.

4.  Deneil Merritt

Deneil provides one of the most comprehensive reports I’ve seen. It includes detailed traffic stats, the top 5 posts for the month, income and goals for the next two months.

5. Shout Me Loud

I like reading the monthly income reports from Shout Me Loud. The owner, Harsh Agrawal is honest and forthcoming about his experiences online.

6. Smart Passive Income

Pat gives a comprehensive monthly overview including not only income but a basic run-down of what he did over the month. A great read!

7. Blueverse

Ryan provides a basic breakdown of income for the month and also includes what he’s currently working on.

8. I Need Discipline

Another monthly income report, this time from Dean who provides a breakdown of income as well as whether his sources of income increased or decreased from the previous month. He also includes traffic stats.

9. My Tech Quest

Steve is the owner of My Tech Quest and provides an overview including traffic stats and income. He also discusses his goals for the next month.

10. Richard Bonner

Richard doesn’t provide a detailed breakdown but instead shows the amount earned and the amount spent for the month.

Making money online is one of those truly unique methods for making a living. It doesn’t have to involve selling a physical product, it costs practically nothing to start, you can work from home, you can live anywhere in the world (as long as you have a good internet connection) and in a lot of cases you don’t need to work long hours to succeed.

A good majority of the population aspire to working online but never get any further than thinking about it.  And in most cases their thinking involves negative beliefs that keep them rooted to their 9 to 5 job. I’ve heard lots of excuses over the years – I don’t have the time – When my kids are bigger I might start looking into it – I spend all day on a computer at work, I don’t want to have to come home and do the same – I can’t type (hello!?…you only need 1 finger to type on a keyboard).

Every one one of these excuses is simply that – an excuse to keep that person from even trying. For most it is easier to not attempt something than to attempt it and fail. Their fear of failure keeps them stuck doing the same 9 to 5 job day after day. Unfortunately they don’t realise that the most successful people on this planet have failed again and again, but the difference between them and anyone else is that they see these failures as opportunities. They know that they can learn more from their failures than they can from their successes.

I think we’ve all heard by now the story of Thomas Edison who failed over 2000 times before he finally perfected the light bulb. Imagine if he had given up after the first failure? Would we all be sitting in the dark now? Probably not, as someone else who wasn’t afraid of failing would have taken over.

You only have to see a baby attempting to walk to see how this all works. They get up, take a step and fall straight back down again. But do they give up?…no way, they keep getting up and falling down until they take that second step and the third and before you know it they are walking across the room towards you. And the thing is, we expect them to fail again and again before they eventually start to walk properly. We don’t codemn them, or think they’re stupid or tell them to stop trying.  We know that the only way they will walk is if they keep trying.

So if you think about it why aren’t you doimg the same? What’s holding you back from taking the next step to making money online?

Let go of the fear and just do it. If you make a mistake then don’t beat yourself up about it – instead look at that failure and see how you can improve upon it. Just keep at it and you can only succeed.
