New gaming technology Logitech G15 v2

Well the other day I recieved an email from logitech informing me of the revamped g15 gaming keyboard, Considering I already have the first version of the G15 and the logitech G5, I was pretty impressed when I saw the actual items, so lets start with the G15. the keyboard looks more streamlined that what the origina keyboard does. What logitech has done to improve the appearance of this fine keyboard is they have sacrificed the flipdown lcd screen which also covered the global media keys, as what they have now done is circulated the media keys around the lcd screen. which can be seen here as opposed to it's predecessor which had a more chunky look. The only downside on this keyboard is the fact that it still only supports usb 1.1 which is very much the same with the original G15. The drivers that come with the keyboard allow you to predefine any macro's for any online game that you play, which is handy especially for mmporgs such as WoW. Another thing I like especially with the new keyboard's lcd screen is the magma orange contrast that it uses for the characters in the lcd screen. which makes it a lot more easier to view the text on your lcd at night in the dark, whilst the keyboard uses the same colors as the colored text on your lcd screen. For comfort you still get the palm rest which is quite handy, especially if your a speed typer like myself or play games for a large amount of time.(just remember to take the occasional break from your computer as its bad for your eyes sitting infront of your monitor for a large length of time.)

I will update this post once I obtain one of these spanking new keyboards, and run a full comparison check against the original G15.

How to Make Money Answering Free Paid Surveys

Global Test Market pay you to complete surveys which get e-mailed to you whenever a survey needs completing. The website is quite simple to use and most people shouldn't have a problem making money from answering these paid surveys. However some people might find it tricky to 'activate' these paid surveys, so you should read this tutorial if you are worried about not receiving any surveys even if you are a member.

Once you have applied and been accepted in to the Global Test Market paid survey website, you will need to log on to their website and answer some basic questions so that they can build up a profile of you, which they will use when deciding which surveys to send out.

Go to the Global Test Market website and click on the login link at the top of the screen. Login with your e-mail address and password which should have been e-mailed to you after you signing up. After logging in you should see a list of subjects under the 'My Profiles' heading. They will probably say 'Not Started' next to them, in red writing. If you click on Add/Modify, you will then be able to answer all of the questions that they ask you.

You will not be paid to complete your interests profile, but this is the only way to activate the paid surveys. If you don't complete your interests profile you will not be sent any surveys, so it is essential you keep your profile up to date so that you are eligible for as many surveys as possible.

The interests profile is used by Global Test Market to judge the type of person that you are. This will determine the type of surveys that you will receive, so try and answer the questions as positively as possible. If you answer the surveys stating that you are unmarried, homeless with no job, then you will probably not be eligible for any surveys and so none will get e-mailed to you.

This does not mean that you should lie when completing your profiles, but generally as a rule if you answer yes to as many of the questions as possible, you should receive more surveys - and should therefore receive more money after completing these surveys. I currently receive around 1 survey a day, which is a very nice amount. I would rather receive more surveys than I have time to answer then receive only a couple of surveys a month. It leaves me with the choice of completing the survey or not, which puts me in a nice position.

Below the 'My Profiles' section on the Global Test Market website you should see a list of all your 'Survey Activity'. This will show you the surveys that you have received recently, (starting with the most recent survey sent) and it will also be able to tell if you have completed or not started a survey. This is a nice way to keep on top of all your surveys, and to check that you are receiving and submitting your surveys without any problems.

HPI MT2

Thanks to steve aka speedfreak, my mt2 is practically complete till I am able to upgrade it more with alloy arms and such. I bought some new wheels and tyres but so far, giving the mt2 a runaround is pretty tight, especially handling wise.
