Yep, I Do Want a Free iPod »

Get a Free iPod

I don’t really believe in getting things for free, there are so many multi level and affiliated marketing schemes online, most of them just scam, that most of us doubt there could be any serious offer, you know, they say there’s no free lunch.

I already own an MP3 player, well, actually an Otis Audio Book Player, courtesy of Audible, which can also play music, but they, yep, the same they, say nothing compares to an Apple’s iPod, right? Well, I believe them.

Being unable to afford the 299 bucks I decided to look for iPod offers online.

After reading this Wired article , and realizing that giving away iPods could perhaps be a serious business model, I decided giving FreeiPod a try.

FreeiPod give you a free iPod after participating in one of their sponsors offers and referring 5 more friends, who will have to also choose an offer. They only accept US residents at this time.

I chose the offer from RealRhapsody, the Real Networks music service competing with Apple iTunes. At US$ 29.99 for a 3 month subscription, I think is well worth the money, in fact, I’m currently listening some Green Day at RealRhapsody.

Some of my friends are going for the BlockBuster offer, first two weeks are free and you can enjoy lots of movies.

Now I need the 5 friends for completing the process and getting my precioussss … errr … I mean, the iPod.

So, if you want to have a chance of getting a free iPod and helping me in getting mine, just sign up here.

One last detail: you will have to use Internet Explorer at FreeiPods, their site doesn’t work right with other browsers.

Keep rocking baby!

Fighting Spam in Comments »

Just installed this plugin to fight the spam in the comments.

Now you will have to enter a small code before posting.

I hope I won’t have to moderate and delete more messages from Mr. Texas Holdem or Mrs. Viagra and will be able to write some new articles instead.

Peace. (Oh, and to hell with spammers!)

Real Life - The Online Comic »

I can’t remember where I found about Real Life, but the minute I read this great online comic strip I liked it.

So, take a look at Real Life and tell me about it, oh, and don’t forget to read from the first chapter.
