make $50 a day with points2shop guide
MAKE EASY $10-20 PER DAY.
Today i am going to show you how you can rake in $10-$20 or more per day, and it requires next to no skill but common sense. $300-$600 monthly could pay some of your bills, or maybe provide you with some spending money for those dates you want to go on. I'm not saying that this will make you rich - it's purely meant as an alternate means to quick pocket cash.
Okay! Now that we've gotten the point out of the way, let's start!
In summary, what you'll be doing is looking at Google Image search pages, choosing an image, then pasting the full image URL into a field. Do 5 of these, and you have 15 cents. You should be able to do 1 in under 30 seconds no problem at all, so about 120+/hour, $3.60+/hour. Not great, but much better than $0.00/hour.
First I'll introduce you to the site - Points2shop - Earn Points for Free Rewards. They've come a long way in the GPT industry. We're not interested in the offer completing part though (well, you may be, could definitely get you $10+ extra bucks each day), we're interested in a feature they have dealing with data entry.
Now let's start. click here and register for an account.
Once you sign up and verify your email and everything, you'll want to go to the daily tasks here.
You'll see a nice list of daily tasks that you can do. If writing is your thing, you could answer some questions, if data collection is your thing, you could gather some business details. However, we'll be looking at "Find an Image for a Product". Click that, and read up on the instructions.
Got it? Basically, they list 5 products for you. They give you clickable Google search links, so you don't even have to type in the name of the product. Click the search link, select "Medium" under sizes, and look for an image that's at least 500x500 (preferably), but if you can't find one, find one at least 250x250. Note: MAKE SURE THAT THE IMAGE IS ACCURATE!! I'm not joking here - keep your work quality, otherwise you'll be kicked from doing these tasks, and probably lose your earnings. Use some common sense, find an image of the product.
Once you find a good image, click it, then click "Full Image" on the right. Then, copy the URL of the full image and paste it in the box back on Points2Shop. (you must select from the radio buttons given first)
And voila! Like I said, do 5 of these and hit "Submit Task" and you've got 15 cents, 3 cents per image.
The best part is that the minimum payout for PayPal (I believe AlertPay as well. they also pay via check, Liberty Reserve, and more) is $1! And the payments are sent out within 1-2 business days. If you want to stick with the site and complete surveys and such to earn $25 that way in addition to this, you can become a Gold member and get your payments made instantly, as soon as you request them.

1. DNA nanobots injected into cockroaches
Nanotechnology is a growing research field that manipulates materials
on a molecular scale. One prospect is to transform medicine by
injecting nanobots into the body where they perform functions such as
treating disease.

In February, an Israeli team described devices they made from DNA and injected into cockroaches.
By performing a kind of origami, the DNA nanobots assembled themselves
and were able to control a molecule that targeted specific cells, so
demonstrating their potential to carry out medical functions such as
attacking cancers.

2. Nanotubes in chloroplasts created super plants
Nanotubes are large carbon molecules that form tubes with unusual
thermal and electrical properties. In March, a team from MIT and CalTech
published a method
for inserting nanotubes into plant chloroplasts. The novel combination
boosted photosynthesis and plant growth by several hundred percent.

Applications are still years away, but besides increasing plant growth and production, there are extraordinary possibilities:
tapping plants for electrical power, building self-repairing materials
and erecting buildings from materials that generate their own power.

3. Scallop-shaped robots swam through blood
Researchers at Germany’s Max Planck Institute developed tiny robots that could swim through the bloodstream, repairing tissue damage or transporting medicine.
The challenge they faced was blood’s viscosity: it not only impeded
movement but also varied according to speed. They solved the problem by
designing robots in the shape of scallops powered by an external magnetic field. These robots provide a starting point for many kinds of medical devices of the future.

6. Unmanned drones: the future of delivery services
Unmanned flying drones are taking on a rapidly growing number of
roles, especially in surveillance and monitoring. Following Chinese
experiments last year to test drones as a delivery system for parcels, 2014 saw rapid expansion of serious business interest.

In August, Google used a drone to deliver chocolates to a farm in Outback Queensland. By year’s end, Amazon, DHL and many others were scrambling to establish unmanned delivery services in several countries.
7. A swarm of self-assembling mini-robots
Robots are already important tools in many industries, but put them
into swarms and they can do so much more. In August the journal Science reported work at Harvard in which 1,000 mini-robots, the largest swarm so far, was able to assemble itself into programmed shapes.

European Space Agency’s probe Rosetta went into orbit around the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
On November 12, it released the probe Philae which became the first spacecraft to land on a comet.
Meanwhile, Mars exploration moved forward. India’s Mangalyaan spacecraft went into orbit around Mars in September and in December, NASA successfully launched the new Orion spacecraft, a first step in preparing for manned exploration of Mars.
10. Green power and clean water
Necessity is the mother of invention, so the greater the need, the more important the invention. A worldwide need is the 780 million people around the world who lack access to clean water supplies. The challenge for inventors is to meet the World Health Organisation criteria for practical systems: accessible, simple and cheap.
One notable innovation this year was a portable new system called Sunflower
developed in Switzerland. Easily transportable, it used sunlight to
generate electricity, and at the same time provided heating,
refrigeration for food and purified water.

What are the best new products or inventions that most people don't know about?
The Invisible Bicycle Helmet
It is often cited that helmets mess up one’s hair and especially, may not fit properly over women’s hairstyles. Some people choose hairstyle over helmet and risk their safety. Some choose helmet and keep whining about their ruined hairstyle.
Folks! There's a new product which claims,
- to offer the protection of a helmet and
- to keep your hairstyle intact
Sometime back, Nan Waldman told me about this new design of helmets that are self-inflating in the event of a crash. An useful innovation, I must say! In contrast to traditional cycle helmets, it is worn like a collar with no need to cover the head.
Hövding is a collar that you wear around your neck while cycling. The collar contains a folded up airbag that you’ll only see if you happen to have an accident. The airbag is shaped like a hood, surrounding and protecting the cyclist’s head. The trigger mechanism is controlled by sensors which pick up the abnormal movements of a cyclist in an accident.
The actual collar is the visible part of the invention. It’s covered by a removable shell that you can change to match your outfit.
When in use, the black box continuously monitors the cyclist’s movements, and the collar deploys its air bag protection whenever a dangerous situation arises. The unit is charged by USB.
When I think of best new products, I think of products that solved a problem we previously thought was not possible.
Examples:
Examples:
- Use
an umbrella in windy weather, and you know how pointless the umbrella
becomes. A relatively new umbrella, called Senz stormproof umbrella,
can withstand wind speeds of 100+ km/h.
og/senz...
Disclaimer: our company sells this product - Alfa is a cardboard bicycle made 100% from recycled materials.
Amazingly, it is both waterproof and fireproof. The inventor, Izhar
Gafni, and his business partner ERB has an ambitious goal of
manufacturing these bikes for $9 to benefit people in the third world.
- A
new watersport equipment, called Flyboard, allows you to fly around
across the water like Iron Man. Think of it as wearing boots with a fire
hose attached to them.
Flyboard: Iron Man Jet Pack - If
you've gone camping before, you've probably used a propane cooker or
propane lantern. It works, but propane gives off toxic gases when burned
and you have to bring propane canisters with you - heavy, flammable,
and what if you run out?
Biolite CampStove solves this problem. Just use twigs and wood chips you find anywhere, and you have clean-burning fire and electricity.og/post...
- A bookcase that is also a staircase for people who are vertically challenged (like me).
http://www.ippinka.com/blog/post... - Bike
helmets are great for protecting your head. But they have always been a
pain to carry around because its so big. It's the #1 reason why people
don't wear a bike helmet. Some company created a bike helmet - called
Overade - that you can fold and unfold within seconds. Now, that's a new product that saves lives.
og/post... - Loopwheels (Inventor: Sam Pearce)
Replacing spokes and the conventional suspension in bicycles with badass carbon composite folded(looped) leaf springs between the hub and the rim, which provide suspension in every (practically encountered) direction.
This is their Kickstarter video:
They have been positively reviewed by BikeRadar :First ride with Loopwheels and Martin Cox, among others.
Don't re-invent the wheel, they said.
Bitch please, Sam Pearce said.
Tangential Suspension:
They have been specially designed for folding bicycles. After all, do ye want yer travel bike to have them bulky shocks?
This is an image of the bike these people worked on:
The design up close, in your nose:
JP = Jelly Products. More on this later.
Bought in = Bought in!
A Loopwheel under compression:
As of now, only for 20". There are some constraints involved:
In action:
Each wheel incorporates a regular hub, with a hub brake and hub gearing. Instead of spokes, however, three looped carbon composite springs run from the hub to the rim. Whenever the wheel hits a bump in the road, the energy is absorbed by those springs.
This causes the hub to momentarily dip down within the wheel by up to 45 millimeters, so it’s actually a bit off-center until the springs flex back into their regular state. For this reason, the wheels will only work on bikes that already have sufficient space between the fork/frame and the tire – otherwise the bike would be hitting its own tires when the springs compressed.
Loopwheels come in front- and rear-specific versions, one of the key differences being that the springs in the front wheel are twice as compliant as those in the back. This is (presumably) to help keep the wheel that does the steering from being knocked and bounced around, plus it compensates for the fact that more of the rider’s weight tends to be centered over the rear wheel.
And yes, it has been thought of before, but the right materials couldn't be created and the available ones couldn't do the job.
How, How much time and Who is the inventor?
UK based mechanical engineer and industrial designer: Sam Pearce.
Pearce got the idea for the Loopwheel while waiting for a flight and watching parents pushing children in strollers over a gap in the flooring. Every time a stroller hit that patch of floor, the child would be jostled forward. A cycling enthusiast, Pearce knew that cyclists had a similar problem to those kids in the airport, so he started drawing up ideas for in-wheel shock absorbers.... (more)

What are some amazing facts about Earth, that most people don't know?
Can
you name the longest mountain range on Earth? How about the shape of
the Earth? It’s a sphere right? The answers to some of these questions
might surprise you. Here are 25 Crazy Facts About Planet Earth That Will
Boggle Your Mind.
25
Earth isn't round. Centrifugal force pushes outwards at Earth's equator giving it a slight wasteline.
24
Standing
on that equator you would be spinning around Earth's center at 1000
miles per hour. At the poles, however, you would be standing still (and
turning in a circle)
23
You would still be hurling through space at 67000 miles per hour though
22
The
rocks you are standing on get recycled. Volcanoes spit them out as
magma, they dry, harden, and after a very long time either get sucked
down again by plate tectonics or get pushed towards Earth's core by a
fresh layer of rocks above.
wikipedia
21
Speaking
of magma, the hottest temperature ever recorded on Earth's surface was
136 degrees F or 57.8 degrees C in El Azizia, Libya recorded in 1922.
20
The
coldest spot was Antarctica's vostok station that recorded a
bonechilling minus 128.6 degrees fahrenheit (minus 89.2 degrees C)
wikipedia
19
On that note, Antarctica contains about 70 percent of Earth's fresh water and 90 percent of its ice
18
Gravity
is not distributed equally. Yes, you read that right. Places like
Hudson Bay in Canada actually have less gravity than other regions of
the globe. This is due to the fact that there is less land mass in that
part of the planet thanks both to retreating glaciers on the surface and
swirling magma deep in the core.
wikipedia
17
Earth's magnetic north pole is moving northward at a rate of 10 miles per year
16
Eventually, our magnetic poles will switch.
15
Scientists believe Earth may have had two moons at one point in time.
14
Some
scientists claim we still have two moons…in a manner of speaking. Every
now and then an asteroid will get sucked into Earth's orbit and stick
around for up to 9 months.
13
Although
earthquakes are no fun, they are not the only quakes that affect the
earth. Moon quakes can actually make a difference in the tides.
wikipedia
12
As
cool as moon rocks are, on Earth rocks can walk. Or at least slide. In
Death Valley rocks weighing hundreds of pounds slide across the desert
floor leaving trails in their wake. Scientists believe wind and ice are
the culprits.
wikipedia
11
The
longest mountain range on Earth is actually underwater. It is called
the mid ocean ridge system. It stretches for 80,000 km all around the
world and is nearly 20 times longer than the longest range on the
surface, the Andes Mountains. Not only that, the whole thing is
completely volcanic.

On
the topic of volcanos, the most active erupter on Earth is actually the
Stromboli Volcano in southern Italy. For the past 2,000 years it has
been erupting almost continously which has earned it the nickname
"Lighthouse of the Mediterranean.

Volcanos
aren't the only things that explode gas and magma. Lakes do that too.
In Africa, on the borders of Cameroon, Rwanda, and the Democractic
Republic of the Congo there are several lakes that sit above volcanic
earth which results in large pockets of dangerous gas being trapped
beneath them. If they were to explode they would asphyxiate any
passersby.

That's
strange considering the fact that the ocean holds nearly 20 million
tons of gold and Earth holds more than its share of greed. Granted, most
of the gold is diluted. Each liter of seawater contains about 13
billionths of a gram. There is enough undissolved gold on the sea floor
though to put 9 pounds in every pocket on Earth.

The
deepest spot on Earth is the Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench. It
is nearly 11 km below the surface of the ocean (~7 miles) and only 3
people have ever ventured there

Constructed from millions of tiny polyps, coral reefs are the largest living structures on Earth, some even visible from space.

They also contain the highest density of life on the planet, even more than rainforests.

If
gold dust in your ocean water isn't cool enough for you then consider
this, everyday about 100 tons of interplanetary material fall down onto
Earth's surface primarily from the ice of comets as it vaporizes near
the sun.

Just
to leave you with some parting food for thought, the pacific basin
contains half of the free water on Earth and could hold all of the
world's continents.

And
one more thing. The largest single living thing (apart from reefs
constructed of multiople polyps) was a mushroom fungus in Oregon that
grew to 2,200 acres. Good luck sleeping tonight.
