2008 in retrospect

Happy New Year 2009!

Time to review the last year’s achievements!

Well i have certainly made progress in the development of my “business” at http://humbleideas.com   In total as at 1st Jan 2009 i have11,938 hits on my 25 videos posted on REVER hosted at my site.   In fact one of the videos posted on Metacafe attracted 60,677 hits (as at 1st Jan 2009) in 4 months:  http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1755541/calculator_hidden_secrets_1_of_4/

I’m a bit cheesed off by both Metacafe and Revver though… Metacafe for their failure to pay me due to their reason that the video was not “entertaining” enough (there are so many simple non-entertaining videos in Metacafe that they pay hundreds of dollars to the authors).. and Revver for their slow pay-outs (rumours abound that they are in Chapter 11 mode or something like that!).   Well i’ll still roll out more videos in 2009 regardless, since i get a lot of sense of satisfaction from the work,  Stay tuned!

And guess what, in the two years after i rejected the big fat salary in the Corporate world and its accompanyingfrustrations, i never had to visit a doctor!  It is probably due to a more healthy lifestyle and happy environment with less stress.   As 2009 unfolds i wish all readers a happy and healthy new year ahead!
