So I mentioned Blingo the other day. I read about it in one of my technerd magazines, and went and checked it out. If you use their portal (they license Google's content for the results) while doing searches, you might win stuff. Only your first 10 or so searches count each day, but you can win iPods, gift cards, movie tickets, and iTunes gift certificates. So I signed up (you don't have to to win, but I did anyway). And today, I won a movie ticket. Woohoo!

Then, Ghana beat the US, 2-1 in the world cup. Last time I refilled my balance at allofmp3, they had a deal going where you picked a world cup game and predict the outcome correctly, you get bonus credit. Predicting the winner gets you 10%. Picking the winner and right score gets you 50%. Guess who picked Ghana over the US, 2-1? That's $7.50 worth of mp3s, man!
