Damn Small Linux USB install tutorial:

1. Download the HP-USB Format tool and format your flash drive using the Fat or Fat32 option
2. Download the dsl-embedded.zip and extract the contents using 7-Zip to your “USB flash drive”
3. Download syslinux-3.36.zip and unzip the files to a directory called syslinux on your computer
4. From Windows click start-> run-> cmd
5. From the command window, type cd \syslinux\win32
6. Type syslinux.exe -ma X: (replace X with your USB drive letter) to make the drive bootable
7. Reboot your computer and set your system BIOS or Boot Menu to boot from the USB device. In some cases, you might also need to set the hard disk boot priority to boot from the USB stick if your BIOS lists the device as a hard drive.

Notes: It is possible to “boot DSL using Qemu emulation” without the need to reboot the PC. See the included readme file that was written by the authors of DSL.

If you still can’t get DSL to work, you can try this full installation tutorial direct from the DSL wiki

Wondering how much money search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN earn from your searches? Thinking of ways to get back at them? Well here it is, My HomePage Friends (MHPF) is a Pay to Search (PTS) program that pays you to search on popular search engines like Yahoo.com. This PTS pays you in Pounds (£) that’s much more than a dollar ($).

MHPF pays you approximately £1 for every 100 searches using the search box, sounds small, after sometime you won’t even notice that your generating hundreds just by searching the internet. MHPF provides a search box that is built into your browser the best thing is, it works on Firefox and Internet Explorer. Though it searches only on Yahoo, it will eventually add more search engines that will give you more search results.

More ways on maximizing your earnings through , here are some of them.

1. Search

Instead of typing a website address in the address bar use the search box instead.

2. Referrals

You can also refer a friend, by recommending them to My HomePage Friends, you get 10% of their earnings and even a small amount from their referral’s earnings.

Here is my old but new Social Bookmarking Networking Site. I have refurbished the old one, but due to errors on my database, I haven’t imported the old bookmarks that used to be there, sorry :). Feel free to submit and contribute.

Well, I have already successfully registered. I am on my way to being part of that event – a certain first here in the Philippines. I am talking about WordCamp Philippines 2008.

What’s my purpose now in wanting to join WordCamp? Well, my main reason would be that I would like to learn even more about WordPress. Tons of websites do use WordPress and I would like to gain more knowledge on what else I could do with it. There sure is a reason why most people choose WordPress over other hosting sites. With my joining WordCamp, I would be able to discover just what makes WordPress stay on top.

Now, that was one of my purposes in joining WordCamp. I have yet another reason why I chose to register. See, I would also want to meet new people and make friends. I know that sounds so cliché but the truth is, being friends with people online are far different from getting to know people face to face. Living in a world where I am online most of the time leaves me not much time to meet up with these online friends I’ve made. This event is one chance for me to meet my online friends personally. It would also be a blast meeting these blogging and online celebrities. I could name them all but there are so many of them.

Those are my two main reasons why I chose to join WordCamp. I am sure that it would be quite interesting. Thanks to Mindanao Bloggers, this event is going to push through. Of course, the organizers of this event have got sponsors to thank. And the list includes:

• i.PH: the Domain for Individuals
• Free Online Flash Games
• Wazzup Manila Philippines
• Real Estate CRM
• Real Estate Website Designers
• Orange County Real Estate
• Auto Insurance Quotes
• Lane Systems Inc.
• RedMedia
• Orange County Business Lawyer
• Cebu Pacific Air
• Buddy Gancenia Reality TV
• SmartBro Wireless Broadband
• SPOT.ph
• Make Money with Performancing Ads

All I do now is wait for the date to arrive. And that would be the time when we would all troop to the venue and be part of WordCamp2008.
