Ever since we have had a wireless router I have found myself blogging in unusual places.
I took the laptop up to our roof garden a few months ago and was gleefully happy that I actually had signal up there. I think it’s important to be able to move around with your work, especially as it can affect your mood and creativity.
For example, when I am tired but still have an idea or project going on, I will take my laptop with me to bed and happily type in comfort.
Another thing I like about wireless is that don’t have to be attached to a big lead running through the house and several computers can work on it at the same time. Which is great seeing as we have 2 computers and 2 laptops in our home. How geeky? lol.
Uh-oh, today I came across a very cool site, which has some very cool gifts. It can mean only one thing, my credit card better watch out.
House Of Cool has so many gadgety, funky things, so much so that Cuteek will gobble them all up. I have many favourite things from the site….there’s even huge discounts, just in time for Christmas.

BABY ART PRINT @ £14.75
The is an excellent present for new parents. My brother has just become a Dad so I bought one of these fab kits for them. My thinking was that they would have so many presents and balloons, all very similar and this gift was just a little bit unusual. It’s 100% baby safe and very simple to use, a great keepsake and the footprint displays in a modern frame.
Computer Key money Box @ £6.99
Encourage yourself to save cash with this geeky Computer Key Money Box. Although I do like to spend, I can be a really good saver when I want to, the novelty of this would make me put money in. Great gift for all cash stashers!
I thought I would take the opportunity to sign up with Smorty, which I have have heard very good things about.
Smorty pays you to blog and also gives advertisers an easy way to connect with bloggers, giving opportunities for them to advertise on blogs.
Unlike some sites, Smorty actually has tasks waiting for you as soon as your blog is approved, which means you get paid for blogging right away and advertisers get the job done.
Once you are logged into Smorty, the dashboard or your main personal page displays earnings, completed tasks and there is even a points system which is based on Google PageRank, Alexa Ranking, rate of completion…these factors all add to your points, the more points you total up, the higher paid posts will be available to you. The minimum amount per post is $6, while the highest is $100.
Posts are normally approved within 5 days of submitting, and payment is on a weekly basis straight into your paypal account! You must write in English, over 150 words but not over 400 words to complete the posts, which is very easy to get your point and views across whilst earning.
