This is idea #4 on how to earn money from Facebook. In my previous posts, I shared how you can earn money from facebook via Facebook fan page, creating a Facebook application, or by joining Paypal Wishlist.
This time, I will be sharing how to earn from Facebook via CloudCrowd.
What is CloudCrowd?
CloudCrowd is a facebook application in beta stage. CloudCrowd is a service that brings your work to the crowd-- thousands of workers ready to take on your tasks via the internet more specifically Facebook.
Basically, CloudCrowd is a facebook application that allows Facebook users to work on tasks and get paid!
CloudCrowd Review
Having worked for a few tasks in CloudCrowd, I would say that this is not a get-rich-quick scheme. The highest paying task would allow you to take home $1.44. This task would require you to rewrite badly written paragraphs.
After working on tasks for about an hour, my total earnings was $2.18. Not much. But compared to other make money online schemes, (like PTC and paid e-mails) CloudCrowd is significantly better.
They pay immediately. At least that's what they claim. According to their website, all work approved by 5:00PM Pacific Time will be paid by midnight of the next business day. They pay via paypal.
There seems to be a shortage of tasks. After being a member for about 3 weeks, I only had one chance to work on tasks. There seems to be some back end glitches as of now concerning their system that's why they are unable to rollout many tasks that workers want.
All in all, I recommend that you become a member of cloudcrowd. After all, it is FREE to join and you get paid no matter how much you earned. (There is no minimum payout for CloudCrowd). You just have to be patient in waiting for tasks to be given. And one way to make sure you get notified when tasks come up is to sign up for their Work Alert Notification System.
How to join CloudCrowd?
1. Add the CloudCrowd facebook application by clicking this link.
2. Sign-up for Paypal. (This is where your earnings get deposited)
3. Sign-up for their Work Alert Email Notification.
4. Make sure your work is top notch. You get credibility points for work well done.
Post your comments below on how you experience with CloudCrowd went!

9 Geminids, 3 Airplanes and a dog. That's what i saw as of 0241H 14 Dec watching for Geminids streaking across the night sky for an hour!
I also learned one or two very philosophical lessons while watching out for the Geminids Meteor Shower.
Lessons from the Geminids
You can't catch em all. Inasmuch as you want to see every single meteor streaking across the star-lit night, it simply ain't gonna happen. So it is with life.You can't be too greedy. There will always be meteors which are never meant for you to see.

Meteor Lovers are up for an awesome Geminids Meteor Shower at dawn, December 14! For those who are familiar with the Geminids, this night sky's show would indeed be a wonderful year-end treat!
Where to Look for the Geminids Meteor Shower
Look at the sky within the boundaries of the constellation Gemini the Twins. This point – called the radiant point – lies close to Gemini’s bright star, Castor.
In plain english, LOOK NORTH. (Philippine Viewers)
Peak Hours of Geminids Meteor Shower
The best time to look is during the early morning hours between about 2 a.m. and dawn.
Tips for a memorable Geminids Meteor Shower Experience
1. Find a place that has minimal ambient light. The country would be best. Or simply turning off the streetlights would suffice.
2. Bring along a buddy. He would keep you awake during the meteor-less moments:)
3. Wear a hoody. You want to catch meteors, not colds.
4. Chill. As a wise man once said, meteor watching is a lot like fishing. You go outside. You enjoy nature all around you. You hope you catch some!
I hope to hear about your Geminids Meteor Shower experience. Post them as comments below!

I think I now know why an 8-5 job won't make you financially free. Being rich is a state of being that is hard to achieve if all you know is the philosophy of an employee. It's not even how much you earn that makes you rich at all! It's how your mind works that is the determining factor whether you are rich or not.
So why won't a Job Make you Rich?
1. The 8-5 attitude. In a job, you are expected to work from 8-5. (9-5 in other countries). Either way, I fear this plants into your mind a rather flawed attitude that work stops when the clock strikes 5! It does not at all! The succeeding hours are as valuable as the ones that have gone by. Hence, if you think you can hit the couch after 5 and just shut your brain down you will never make it big!
2. You are minding somebody else's business. Your accountability to your performance at work is only limited to a professional level. It's only very seldom when employees take their work to a very personal level. Precisely because they think that their work ends when the clock strikes 5. To be rich, you need to mind your own business!
3. You get paid for your time. A job makes you think that your valuable time is worth X number of dollars per hour. At first glance, this phenomenon seems harmless. However, this is a hindrance to becoming rich because it would be very hard for you to work for FREE. To be able to work for FREE is a quality that almost all rich people share.
As of now, these are the reasons I can think of why a Job won't make you a Rich Person. What do you think? Post your comments below.
