Eddie Griffin crashed a rare Ferrari Enzo worth $1.5 million into a concrete barrier while practicing at a racetrack Monday, destroying the car but escaping uninjured.
The comedian was practicing for a charity race to promote his upcoming film, “Redline,” when he drove too fast around a curve at the Irwindale Speedway. Video footage showed the red sports car screeching before it ricocheted off the barrier with heavy damage to its front.
“Undercover Brother’s good at karate and all the rest of that, but the brother can’t drive,” Griffin, referring to one his past films, said after the accident.
We have been having tons of pagerank wierdness on Zeropaid, and today I am happy to report both zeropaid.com and www.zeropaid.com are showing a pr of 6 on all google datacenters (like you cared
Ok, so I know I am always the last one on the train, but StumbleUpon is the bomb. I was seeing a ton of referrers from there, so I went over and saw it was some kind of toolbar app. I installed it and WOW spent hours on the internet having fun like I haven’t in years. There is TONS of good content out there people.. this really refreshed my perception of the net and people in general.
Not sure if it is because of all the fuss I made a month or so ago, but Digg’s search seems much improved. I needed to find an article about Ubuntu performance I had seen but couldn’t remember when, and viola! There it was. I thank the good engineers of Digg and beseech them to grant us an advanced search. You know, boolean operators, exact keyword and phrase matching, search inside title / description, search inside your search results —- oh wait sorry I meant thanks for fixing the search, please don’t break it again.
The World Famous Shoemoney has released his new ebay referral program to the world called AuctionAds (click authenticate then login/pass is aa/bb). He had previously released a project called ShoeMoneyAds that was basically the same thing, an interface for the ebay affiliate api. In this previous incarnation, you input your PID that CJ gives you when you sign up for the ebay affilaite program and shoe just served ads using your pid. In AuctionAds, no pid is necessary and it looks like shoe pays you directly via paypal. Interesting, but he (like adsense), does not disclose the % of payout. Cool tool for non developers or lazy people, but you can get the full amount by going with CJ and the ebay api. I am trying it out on our BitTorrent Tracker Links page.
update: Here are some stats from yesterday (has to glance at auction ads tos to see if this was legal). I have been running this only on the page referenced above, yesterday we had 2487 impressions and 4 clicks with a CTR of 0.16% and $0.00 in revenue. I had used the keywords of “hdtv;xbox360;wii;dvd” but after looking at Shoemoney’s blog I have switched them to “laptop;dell;gateway;geek” (higher priced items == bigger commissions?).
Arrington says “AuctionAds says they’ll pass 100% of eBay affiliate fees (paid on new eBay user registrations and a percentage of sales) on to publishers for an interim period. Since eBay pays sliding fees based on the total business generated by the affiliate (which in this case is AuctionAds), eventually AuctionAds will be able to skim some fees off the top while still promising to pay sites at least as much as they’d earn as a direct affiliate.”
