Tuesday, July 18th, 2006I am currently working madly on my next eBook. I have looked at a few related products on the market and it should be fairly unique. It is not a very exciting topic and the subject matter won’t surprise readers of this blog. My goal is to get it complete by the end of this [...]
First Tokyo ebook sold
Saturday, July 15th, 2006I sold my first Tokyo ebook! Actually it was sold by an affiliate, but I am still happy. From doing a few Google searches, I have noticed a couple of people selling the book. I have tried Adwords, but Tokyo related keywords are expensive and I didn’t have a single convert. I haven’t done any [...]
Day off from work
Friday, July 14th, 2006Japan has a public holiday this coming Monday, so I am having a four day weekend. I am getting ready now to go off to the bank. It is pretty hot and humid here today. I will probably follow that with a trip to the book store, gym and then the local pool, with a [...]
Added a forum to this site
Friday, July 14th, 2006I have added a forum to this site if anyone is interested in participating. I know some people are thinking “not another forum”, but after participating myself in a couple of very low key forums myself, I have found it to be fairly helpful – both trying to help people, and getting advice from like [...]
Email from a realestate agent

I kind of wonder why they would think I would want to sell so soon. If someone is prepared to come up with a [...]
Working for yourself versus working for a company
Tuesday, July 11th, 2006It is interesting hearing about people working for a company for 10 years plus. In my company they started giving away $500 for 10 years service. The people who had reached this milestone were pretty happy. Then I started thinking. Sometimes I wonder if I should keep working for a company and do my internet [...]

First cheque from Adbrite
Friday, July 7th, 2006It has taken me a while but I received my first cheque from Adbrite last night. I read somewhere that they were in trouble. Text link ads seems to be the leader in the space, but I am happy with what Linkworth is bringing in for now.
A walk through Shibuya on a Friday night
Thursday, July 6th, 2006This video is not going to win any awards, but it does give you an idea of what Shibuya, Tokyo’s youth capitol is like on a Friday night.
Making money with Google video
Tuesday, July 4th, 2006It is warming up here in Tokyo, making it difficult to sleep. I couldn’t concentrate on my book, so I thought I would play around a bit with some video I have taken. I would like to improve my video editing skills to put together some interesting videos, but I find it pretty time consuming. [...]
