'Work at home guide' - A reliable source of information
Many online directories, sites and blogs offer useful resources or links for online jobs or work at home opportunities. But many sites misguide you by providing you the links to the sites which they are affiliated, so search carefully for free and reliable links.

An online job search place -'Werk board'
I have been searching for online jobs for a long time and during this search I came across many job search sites, which offer free job search and most of the sites are updated regularly. I would be reviewing online job search sites to help you find suitable online job.
I appreciate to place comment if you are aware of useful links in this connection.
Werk board.com is one of free online jobs search site which is easy to navigate. It is mainly following the Craiglist job board style, but it is different in some ways like as:
* It’s completely free, no ifs, ands, or buts
* Whereas Craigslist and Kijiji are broad-based classifieds sites, this site would be focused only on jobs
* It’s even easier to navigate, involving only two clicks (”What” and “Where”) or a simple keyword search
* It’s a sharper-looking site
Werk board.com is created by Giuseppe Rosati and very young (online from few months) and he says:
“We do not require registration from employers or job seekers in order to keep things as simple and efficient as possible,” he said. “Also, continuing in the vein of keeping things simple, we’re not concerned with collecting resumes or matching systems. We simply display the jobs and let the job seeker apply directly to the employer, so we act only as a middleman connecting the two.”

Learn 'How search engines work?'
To enter the world wide web you need to open a page first and enter the text or keyword to search for the stuff. It provides search results within seconds but you should learn how search engines work and how you can find the specific information around the net without wasting your time.
Tutorial:
Search engines look for your search term within the web pages they've collected and indexed. The results reflect the search engine's determination of how relevant the site's content is to your inquiry. But some search engines will rank sites higher in your results if the site pays a fee, regardless of its relevance to your terms. FTC officials say it's a savvy surfer who knows how search results are sorted and ranked. It can make a difference in which search engines you choose to use and how you interpret the results.
If you use Internet search engines, the FTC(Federal Trade Commission) wants you to know that:
Some search engines have programs for paid placement and paid inclusion.
Paid placement means websites or URLs pay search engines for higher rankings or more prominent placements in search results.
Paid inclusion means websites or URLs pay to be included in a search engine's pool of results available for display, but not to be more prominent.
Sometimes, third-party partners, like other search engines or guide sites, provide listings to search engines. If a partner has its own payment arrangements with a website, it could affect the results on the search engine you use.
Many sites indicate whether a placement is paid for. If the search engine separates some search results as "Sponsored Listings," they may be paid for placement. But keep in mind that results may be grouped under other labels. Look for terms like "featured listings," "recommended sites," "search partner" or "products and services." If those sites are ranked higher than others or placed in a more prominent location than others, it could be a tip-off that the search engine uses a paid placement program.
You may find an explanation of the type of paid placement or paid inclusion program the search engine uses. If such a program is in use, the explanations should be easy to find and understand. If they're not and the omission bothers you, let the search engine know.
Paid inclusion programs do not guarantee higher rankings for listings and may provide features that are useful. For example, paid inclusion programs may provide consumers with better choices if the programs allow search engines to review URLs more quickly or review websites more deeply than they would otherwise.
You have a choice. Before you decide which search engine to use, consider whether the use of payment programs for placement or inclusion is important to you.

These facts and tips are provided by ftc.gov (Federal Trade Commision) for the benefits of consumers, so you can judge how search engines work and to what extent you can trust at their results.

Get current news about ptc sites at online forums
I have searched at search engines to see if there is any directory or resources about paid to click/paid to view ads sites, but I didn't. I have found online communities and forums the best place to get all the news about this industry. If you are enthusiastic about earning online then paid to click or paid to view ads is the easiest way.
Due to hundreds of scam and fraud site, many people don't like to sign up for ptc sites, but there are many who are happy to earn with reliable and paying sites.
PTC Discussion is one of those online forums where the main topic of discussion is ptc sites. You not only get the news about ptc sites, but get a list of top 10 ptc sites, scam sites, read the payment proofs, success stories, ptc reviews, and lot of other topics relating to making money online.
As this forum is created from a person who is enthusiastic about making money and not a moderator of any ptc site, so information discussed at the forum are reliable.
There is only one thing which I don't understand that there are some adult links at the rules section. (Is it done to get the attraction of internet surfers?)
I suggest to go for PTC discussion blog which has many useful posts which I suggest to read carefully.

You can make millions with 70 cents
There are millions of site which claim to help you earn millions and you end up with nothing or few bucks. There is a risk-free matrix system which enables you to make 'millions' at this site, and my opinion is to try for this opportunity. They also offer 'paid to click' offer and if you are not successful for the system still you can make money.
I have signed up with the '70 cents' where you can earn $1,000,000 (one million dollars) by spending only $0.70 (70 cents).
The systems works in this manner:
You will receive money from your referrals (those who signed up under you): $0.10 per each. Moreover, you'll receive the same money for each referral of your referrals: $0.10. The higher your matrix level is, the more referral earning levels you have.
You have to pay one time fee - $0.70 to purchase the 1st matrix level. After that you'll be able to earn money without any spending. The next levels can be bought via account balance.
Even if you don't have $0.70, you can earn them here. You'll be paid for clicking ads brought to you by our advertisers ($2 per 1000 clicks)
- There are 7 levels in this matrix. The highest level is the 7th.
The minimum payout is only $1 that will be received in 24 hours after request.
- They accept AlertPay, Liberty Reserve and Webmoney.
7 Main Rules of the 70Cents Project
1. You have to deposit funds only once to purchase the 1st matrix level ($0.70).
2. The money you pay for the 1st matrix level go to your referrerrs.
3. You have only n referrals earning levels, where n is your matrix level.
4. You get money from all referrals corresponding to your referral earning level, their personal matrix level doesn't play any role.
5. You can refer only if you have at least the 1st matrix level.
6. You can purchase the next level as soon as you have enough money in your account balance. The money you pay for 2-7 level does not go to your referrers.
7. You can purchase referral gifts. With gifts you can add 70 cents to the balances of your referrals, they don't have to pay money.

Make free money onine with 'Bucket bux'
There are some sites on the web which are not related to 'paid to click' or 'paid to view ads' but you can make money by signing up the offers or trying the products/services. You don't need to spend any money for these offers, and you are get paid to complete these offers. And remember that registration to these paid to sign up sites is completely free.
Bucket Bux is one of those sites which I have joined few weeks ago and I have already earned $3, but as being from an Asian country I can't complete the higher paying offers. (If you are from U.S, Canada then you may earn from $50 to $200 by just completing the free offers. Recently there are more than 90 offers where first few offers were around $15 to $20 each)
More about the site and offers:
Most are simple forms, requiring only email addresses, zip codes, address information, cell phone numbers, and take only moments to complete.
- There are many "paid" offers. Which means that you can purchase a service or product, earning lots of profit. We'll pay you over $20 for many offers that cost only a few dollars to complete. You can test products or try out services with no commitment aside for what is stated in the offer's requirements. It is important that you read the terms set by both the site and the advertiser.
- You will receive credit for most completions within minutes of completing the offer. It is entirely normal for an offer to take a few hours to credit, however. If the offer doesn't credit "instantly" it will note that it may take a few days to credit in its requirements.
You can earn by referring other person to this site.
If you refer a friend to BucketBux you will receive 20% of their earnings. For instance, if you refer a friend who earns $100 on the site, you receive an extra $20! All you have to do is make sure the person you are referring uses your referral link to sign up.
How to start making money from the site?
After getting registered at the site you need to:
1. Select the View Offers tab in the navigation bar.
2. Decide which offer you would like to complete.
3. Select the offer and more info will appear, informing you of what you must do to receive credit for completing the offer. We show you useful information such as the offer's description, its requirements, how much it will cost you (if it's not absolutely free) and how much the site will pay you for completing the offer.
4. Select the "TRY IT TODAY!" link to open the offer. Complete the offer, following all of the requirements listed on the previous page.
5. When you have completed the offer, make sure to select the "I have completed this offer" button. You can't receive credit until you do so!
6. Once we confirm the offer (usually within a few hours) your earnings will be in your account balance.

Effects of internet surfing
Internet access has accelerated the learning and in some ways it boosts creativity among humans. But at the same time this useful technology is producing 'internet addicts'.
Internet surfing becomes a bad habit when you spend hours in front of computer on daily basis and quit other activities. But despite of being a victim of 'internet addiction' is there any good or positive side of internet surfing?
What happens inside our brain when we surf internet regularly for hours?
Gary Small, a neuroscientist at UCLA in California who specializes in brain function, has found through studies that Internet searching and text messaging has made brains more adept at filtering information and making snap decisions.
"We're seeing an evolutionary change. The people in the next generation who are really going to have the edge are the ones who master the technological skills and also face-to-face skills," Small told Reuters in a telephone interview.
"They will know when the best response to an email or Instant Message is to talk rather than sit and continue to email."
In his newly released fourth book "iBrain: Surviving the Technological Alteration of the Modern Mind," Small looks at how technology has altered the way young minds develop, function and interpret information.
Small, the director of the Memory & Aging Research Center at the Semel Institute for Neuroscience & Human Behavior and the Center on Aging at UCLA, said the brain was very sensitive to the changes in the environment such as those brought by technology.
He said a study of 24 adults as they used the Web found that experienced Internet users showed double the activity in areas of the brain that control decision-making and complex reasoning as Internet beginners.
"The brain is very specialized in its circuitry and if you repeat mental tasks over and over it will strengthen certain neural circuits and ignore others," said Small.
"We are changing the environment. The average young person now spends nine hours a day exposing their brain to technology. Evolution is an advancement from moment to moment and what we are seeing is technology affecting our evolution."
Small said this multi-tasking could cause problems.
He said the tech-savvy generation, whom he calls "digital natives," are always scanning for the next bit of new information which can create stress and even damage neural networks.
"There is also the big problem of neglecting human contact skills and losing the ability to read emotional expressions and body language," he said.
"But you can take steps to address this. It means taking time to cut back on technology, like having a family dinner, to find a balance. It is important to understand how technology is affecting our lives and our brains and take control of it."

Good news is that internet surfing may prevent the age related changes which cause the brain to slow down. (So women start surfing the net!)
New research shows that surfing the web may be a good way of boosting your brain power and preventing age-related changes that cause the brain to slow down.
"Internet searching engages complicated brain activity, which may help exercise and improve brain function," University of California's Professor Gary Small said.
Although the study was only small in scale - with 24 volunteers aged between 55 and 76 - the results were considered "encouraging".
The volunteers' brains were scanned while they performed web searches and book-reading tasks.
Researchers found that compared to reading, web searching stimulated areas of the brain which controls decision-making and complex reasoning. This is because it requires people to make choices on what to click on to find what they want.
So next time you catch yourself searching for the latest online bargains, banish those guilty feelings - you may just be doing your brain a favor!

Web surfing boosts brain power
Alan Royal believes regularly surfing the internet not only keeps his own mind sharp, but also those of his ageing computer students.
The 75-year-old has tutored hundreds of Wellingtonians at SeniorNet - a volunteer computer training organisation aimed at users over 55 - and said new technology is changing the lives of the elderly.
New research has shown that middle-aged and elderly people can benefit from searching the internet to stimulate the brain.
The study, carried out by scientists at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), was published in the latest edition of the American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry.
Mr Royal said SeniorNet usually had a membership of about 900 - "but unfortunately at our age, we've got a habit of dying off".
He said learning new things involving the internet, as well as having other interests, meant his students, some of whom were nearing 90, were keeping their brains active.
The UCLA scientists found that browsing the internet triggered parts of the brain that control decision-making and complex reasoning - which may improve brain function.
They tested 24 volunteers with normal brain function between the ages of 55 and 76; half were Web-savvy and half had no online experience.
The study participants searched the Web using browsers such as Google while undergoing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans to record changes in brain circuitry.
All participants showed significant brain activity, but the Net-savvy group showed double the brain activation during Web use compared with those who had had little Internet experience.
The researchers said the Web-savvy group also registered greater activity in the areas of the brain which control decision-making and complex reasoning.

Are you an internet addict?
Do you love to spend most of the time online?
Do you leave yourself logged in twenty-four hours a day, even when you're not home? Is your wpm typing speed higher than your IQ? Are you having trouble seeing things at distances greater than 2 feet? Yes, YOU. You know who you are.
You are an internet addict!
Read these signs and decide for yourself:
"30 Signs That Technology Has Taken Over Your Life"
1. Your stationery is more cluttered than Warren Beatty's address book. The letterhead lists a fax number, e-mail addresses for two on-line services, and your Internet address, which spreads across the breadth of the letterhead and continues to the back. In essence, you have conceded that the first page of any letter you write is letterhead.
2. You have never sat through an entire movie without having at least one device on your body beep or buzz.
3. You need to fill out a form that must be typewritten, but you can't because there isn't one typewriter in your house -- only computers with laser printers.
4. You think of the gadgets in your office as "friends," but you forget to send your father a birthday card.
5. You disdain people who use low baud rates.
6. When you go into a computer store, you eavesdrop on a salesperson talking with customers -- and you butt in to correct him and spend the next twenty minutes answering the customers' questions, while the salesperson stands by silently, nodding his head.
7. You use the phrase "digital compression" in a conversation without thinking how strange your mouth feels when you say it.
8. You constantly find yourself in groups of people to whom you say the phrase "digital compression." Everyone understands what you mean, and you are not surprised or disappointed that you don't have to explain it.
9. You know Bill Gates' e-mail address, but you have to look up your own social security number.
10. You stop saying "phone number" and replace it with "voice number," since we all know the majority of phone lines in any house are plugged into contraptions that talk to other contraptions.
11. You sign Christmas cards by putting :-) next to your signature.
12. Off the top of your head, you can think of nineteen keystroke symbols that are far more clever than :-).
13. You back up your data every day.
14. Your wife asks you to pick up some minipads for her at the store and you return with a rest for your mouse.
15. You think jokes about being unable to program a VCR are stupid.
16. On vacation, you are reading a computer manual and turning the pages faster than everyone else who is reading John Grisham novels.
17. The thought that a CD could refer to finance or music rarely enters your mind.
18. You are able to argue persuasively the Ross Perot's phrase "electronic town hall" makes more sense than the term "information superhighway," but you don't because, after all, the man still uses hand-drawn pie charts.
19. You go to computer trade shows and map out your path of the exhibit hall in advance. But you cannot give someone directions to your house without looking up the street names.
20. You would rather get more dots per inch than miles per gallon.
21. You become upset when a person calls you on the phone to sell you something, but you think it's okay for a computer to call and demand that you start pushing buttons on your telephone to receive more information about the product it is selling.
22. You know without a doubt that disks come in five-and-a- quarter-and three-and-a-half-inch sizes.
23. Al Gore strikes you as an "intriguing" fellow.
24. You own a set of itty-bitty screw-drivers and you actually know where they are.
25. While contemporaries swap stories about their recent hernia surgeries, you compare mouse-induced index-finger strain with a nine-year-old.
26. You are so knowledgeable about technology that you feel secure enough to say "I don't know" when someone asks you a technology question instead of feeling compelled to make something up.
27. You rotate your screen savers more frequently than your automobile tires.
28. You have a functioning home copier machine, but every toaster you own turns bread into charcoal.
29. You have ended friendships because of irreconcilably different opinions about which is better -- the track ball or the track pad.
30. You understand all the jokes in this message. If so, my friend, technology has taken over your life. We suggest, for your own good, that you go lie under a tree and write a haiku. And don't use a laptop.
