ReviewMe Sponsored Reviews

Sponsored reviews have been around for more than 5 years and it is a great source of monetary income for people who blog. ReviewMe is one of those paid blogging services that are currently operational and I am actively a part of it.

To be able to receive opportunities, register for a free account and add your blogs. Their staff will check if your blog meets their requirements. Once your blog is approved, you can then check your account from time to time to see if there are any opportunities available to you. But a piece of advice, you would have to be quick as you are not the only user in their system. It is a matter of being able to see available opportunities and accepting them first.

Payment is done through PayPal or check and payments are usually done the first day after the next month. They are prompt when it comes to payments so you do not have to worry about delayed transactions. By far, ReviewMe is one of the consistent and legit sponsored review services that I currently am a part of.

Customer service is also prompt. I always get replies quickly once I email them for questions and concerns.

Splitting The Check As Easy As Bumping Phones

I read this a few months and totally forgot writing about this. This is one impressive iPhone app from PayPal But that attempts to take the pain out of splitting the bill. The application helps PayPal and iPhone customers transfer money by simply bumping their phones together. Not bad right?

Registered users can send money securely over the Internet in the process. This feature takes advantage of a technology from Bump Technologies, which created a way to share contact information by touching two phones together. The app uses the phone’s sensors to “feel” the bump and the information swap is secure and happens instantaneously.

The application is free so go ahead and download it from the iTunes AppStore. Once someone logs in with their credentials and identifies the recipient via e-mail address, one just needs to bump their phone with the recipient to transfer money.

X.com

Such an unusual domain name don’t you think? X.com is owned by Paypal and the domain is for their PayPal X Developer Network. This lets developers integrate PayPal payment processing services without forcing users to redirect to PayPal’s website to enter payment information.

This new initiative is designed to allow the company to better compete with the likes of Google and Amazon, which offer similar services. A great product from Paypal targeted specifically e-commerce sites.

Now, how much do you think Paypal paid for this domain? After all, common words made as domain are pretty expensive. This is actually the first time I have seen a 1 letter domain.
