This calculator will compare the cost of renting vs. the real cost of buying a home. This calculator will compare the costs and benefits of taxes, fees, and interest you will pay when buying a home to the monthly rent you pay when renting. It does not include payments made against the principal on your loan, since those payments become equity in your home.

Metacafe’s Producer Rewards™ program rewards you for creating and submitting great videos.
How it works
If your video has what it takes to entertain people, we want to license it and pay you for every view. Every time someone watches your video on Metacafe, you earn money.
How you make money
Metacafe will pay you $5 for every thousand views your video gets on our site. Payment starts after your video reaches 20,000 views and has a rating of 3.00 or higher – which tells us that the viewers like the video. On top of that, the license to Metacafe is a non-exclusive deal – you retain ownership of your video. Metacafe helps build your brand by marketing your content and making you money.
What’s the potential?
With well over 1 million unique users per day watching over 400 million videos every month, Metacafe is perfectly placed to deliver the most receptive audience to the most entertaining content. Whether it’s something spontaneous in your home or something you’ve scripted, if it entertains, it has a place on Metacafe.
What are the requirements?
For a video to qualify for Producer Rewards, you must own all the rights to the video and the video must meet certain content guidelines. Please see How Do I Qualify For Producer Rewards? for details.
Get started now!
Upload your video now to Producer Rewards and start earning money.
Popurls is, as described by its founder, the ultimate source for the latest web buzz and news and a daily must-read for me. I thought maybe I can do something based on that model to keep track of the buzz in Singapore and thus OneNews was born. Of course it’s not as grand as Popurls, just a simpler version. This also showcase the power of Wordpress being more than a blog software.
Below is the recipe for creating a popurls clone using a single blog and single post. Some knowledge on PHP/XML/RSS is required. Treat this brief post as a reference rather than a complete tutorial on cloning popurl
How to change the adsense code to my own?
In line 27 of the Adsense plugin (adsense.php), replace my adsense with your own.
I pasted the post.txt into the post content but I only see codes, not the feeds. How?
Switch from “Visual” to “Code” view before pasting the code in post.txt
How to add/modify feeds?
I can’t cover all areas but I will try to explain the basic building blocks.
In post.txt, you will notice each feed is a variation/repetition of the following code. I added comments along each line of code where you may need to edit.
<p width="280" style="float: left"> //change column
<h2><a href="http://del.icio.us">del.icio.us</a></h2> //change header
$rss = fetch_rss('http://del.icio.us/rss/tag/singapore'); //insert your feed url
$items = array_slice($rss->items, 0, 20); //limit no of posts to 20
echo '<ul>';
foreach ($items as $item)
{
$desc = htmlspecialchars(substr(strip_tags($item['description']),0,300));
echo '<li><a target="_blank" href="'. $item['link'] .'" title="header=[] body=[' . $desc . ']">' . $item['title'] . '</a></li>';
}
echo '</ul>';
?>
But instead of Y. E. A. mashup, us PORN and affilates advertising…. That’s the switch
HTAccess is a menace, but I’ll mod it a bit and see if I can make a version without. Here’s what you’ll need (he forgot to mention):- Hosting with PHP Support, and FSockOpen enabled, SafeMode Off, HTACCESS
- EBay, YouTube and Amazon API ID
That’s it, cool script I guess. oh also the license he put it up on does not require a linkback, I think that’s what he wants – but under the license he put it up on, it means you can use the script without having to put the link. I’d change the license to reflect this, so that he gets some credit for it.
here’s the script
(notice: there have been multiple changes since I originally posted the video. 1. A youtube developer id is no longer needed and the script is updated to use the google youtube api. 2. The default setup is for ebay users that use the commission junction affiliate program. 3. A site title is no longer needed because the homepage defaults to the first product page that is the first title.)
