Prepared Your Black Friday

Date March 8, 2008

Do you know what is Black Friday? it is the day after Thanksgiving. Maybe you have wondered about it, why I talk about this topic. it’s because in the next couple of weeks there will be Black Friday and in that day I usually spend money a lot to buy many things.

Last year I have been busy because of my school so I don’t really have free time to think or buy the thing that I want. So on that day I use BlackFriday.info to search for online shop info and find where the biggest sale is.

After use their service for a while now I’m really glad. Black Friday.info also offers email alerts that let you know when new black friday ads or bfads have been posted. So now I don’t really need to stand in line on the front of store in the morning just to get things that I wanted.

Today I have visited Entrecard blog after so long, I haven’t checked it frequently because sometime they don’t give many big updates such as Entrecard Shop or something like that Recently they have many updates on Entrecard especially on our Dashboard.

On our Entrecard Dashboard, they have applied many things such as:
1. Upgraded Dashboard
entrecard popup
this new feature will make your dashboard show you the most 15 recent ads that dropped in your inbox and the cards will pop up and maximize in size when you scroll over it. Well maybe for others it’s quite convenient but personally I’m not liked this because it’s make my Dashboard load slow, maybe this will not be problem with they who have broadband connection, but what about they who still using dial up?

2. News Feed
The next feature is a News Feed
entrecard news feed
with this feature you can keep in touch with what your favorite bloggers are saying in the forum, selling in the shop, adding favorites, updating their card, who they’re buying ads on, etc

Paypal Accept Indonesia To Withdraw From Local Banks

Date February 1, 2008

paypal
Yesterday I just got a good news from Paypal! Finally Paypal accepted more 26 countries to withdraw their money to local banks including Indonesia my home country.

This is really a good news and I have waited for it so long:) If I look back, in the past many of Indonesian have struggled just to open Paypal account and withdraw their money from affiliate or AdSense. As for me, many have recommended to use broker account so I can have my personal US bank account, which I haven’t tried before it because I think it’s not safe.

Recently on mid 2007 Paypal has officially announced that now some countries has accepted to withdraw money to their credit card including Indonesia too. I have once tried it and I’m really satisfied though it took times.

But now I have no worries, because I can freely take my money from Paypal account to my local banks in less than week.

For my Indonesian fellow who still don’t know how to withdraw, I will give you simple guide how to do it.

How to Withdraw to Local Banks:
paypal withdraw
1. Choose “Add your bank account” option
For this guide I preferred to choose BCA bank account because it’s the mostly used in Indonesia. First write down your “Real Name” same as the BCA card says.

2. Insert Bank Name
On the box below your name, you need to insert your Bank Name. Because in this guide we use BCA bank so write it “BCA”

2. Insert Bank Code
Please insert your Bank Code (7 digit number) so Paypal can verified it. You can ask your bank if you don’t know about it.
Just to let you know, the bank code is not “SWIFT” code. For the BCA bank, the first 3 number is taken from Indonesian Bank Code. Here I listed some of it:
http://www.imagecows.com/display.php?image=http://www.imagecows.com/uploads/6062-Clip_4.jpg

And the rest 4 number you can check it on BCA site, just search about KCU number. Because I take KCU in Sultan Iskandar Muda so my number is 0271

3. Insert Account Number
Well you must be know what the account number is, so I think I don’t need to explain anymore

If you have fill it all then click “Add bank account” and Voila! now your bank has added and now you can freely withdraw you money.
