skeptical about this PeopleString thing

[EdCompSci]

Bigstring.com is a free email provider, and they have this thing called Peoplestring, so I signed up for it, and so it said do this survey and so I did and then it said I am going to earn my first 1.50. They are sending me a card in the mail and I put a code on it and send it and get 1.50. Now I'm not just skeptical of this, but also of this email address I'm using at bigstring.com. Any comments please?

This is definately not a scam. I am watching everything they say happen to me. I have no doubt I will see the 200 dollars I invested with the Entrepreneur package very soon. I know 2 people that have already recieved checks for over $200. It really is as easy as doing what your already doing. Why click on adds from web pages, gernerating that website (such as facebook, myspace, aol, etc...) money that you will never see. Everything we click on, news streams, emailing, shopping adds, creditcard adds, EVERYTHING, is generating that site money. All that can be done through Peoplestring, but Peoplestring is paying you back for doing so. AND ITS FREE! plus their email technology is pretty cool.
go to the site and spend 3 minutes reading it, and try it out for free. there is no obligation, nothing to loose.

In response to Nomaxim claiming the Peoplstring website was created that same day of oceanman's post.... That website is oceanman's site, not Peoplestring. Peoplestring was created a few months ago. Entrepreneurs are given a URL to send out so anyone who joins is linked to that Entrepreneur. Oceanman must have posted that comment the same day his URL was created.
I have recently joined Peoplestring as an Entrepreneur myself, and must agree that the site truly is fantastic.

[Boorchmen]

Very interesting article, i have bookmarked your blog for future referrence. Best regards

[Boorchmen]

Hello. May I rent your layout for my site? :)

[RiseAbove]

Was reading a "HOW TO" site (see below), Can some People Stringer tell me how accurate this site is?

Is it 200 for a 2 year membership without a monthly?

http://peoplestrings.com/

[Bdboop]

Yes. And if you sign up an entrepreneur anytime in September, you will never have another annual fee.

[Bdboop]

The social portal launches this week.

[Bdboop]

Make that 'today'.

[seangworld]

Ok, you know about MySpace and Facebook, and whatever other social websites there are.

There's a new one that apparently launched today.

From what I saw, there's 2 ways to sign up - for free and for $200. I signed up for free. I'm looking around and it already says I have 3 cents in my account. They say to do a survey and they'll give me another $1.50. Then for every person I refer to the site I'll earn 50 cents each.

They will either paypal me the balance each month or send me a check. Something about 6 levels deep and unlimited width. I don't know all the details.

They state that the difference is everyone else keeps all the advertising revenue while PS gives 70% back to it's members.

See for yourself and tell me if it's a scam or not:

PeopleString and HelloHello.net. What revenue is generated by these sites by users simply chatting and posting messages like they would on Facebook? Where is it written down (link would be nice) as to how the calculations are made to determine how much I would get paid as a free member for simply using the site like I would use Facebook? I understand that money is being made when ads are clicked on but really how much money can you expect to receive from sites like PeopleString.com and HelloHello.net?

They also will pay you 50 cents for any person you get to join under your account. How the heck are you going to find enough people to join to even make you 10 bucks a month let alone enough money to consider this a second income? I mean you would have to get 20 different people a month and 240 people in a year to just make that $10. I don't think I know 240 people. And, if I brought a person in, should I not receive most of the money from this as I did the leg work to bring them in and not the other way around?

The desire for more money without really having to work to get it must be very *****ful as there are many people out there pushing these sites as well as many other sites with this same way of making money at home. Tell me how this is really going to make me a lot of money with some concrete numbers and how about a picture of one of these checks and how the site calculated how much you would receive.

[Bdboop]

Boy, are your numbers off.

The main reason I joined is because I make money all by myself. From Cashbox/Mailbox, advertisers sending mail (both by postal and email).

I don't have to click on the ads. They are per view, not per click (but PS does make more if you click). Ad share revenues go out monthly.

I do have a downline, but I haven't even broken 100 yet. I have earned from a) them signing up, and b) them filling out the survey. Those earnings are in pending, and I receive them when my stringer enters their postcard code to validate their postal address.

How much money do you make for being on Facebook? It's a multi-billion dollar industry. How much are they sharing with you? None.

How much is PeopleString sharing? 70%.

Nobody said this is get rich quick. We all know it's not (although fortunes will be made). It's going to take time, effort and determination from those of us who see our future here.

But people like my sister, who will never recruit, has no desire to recruit, and just wants to make a bit from her junk mail and web surfing? She'll get it.

[martin77]

Peoplestring.com is a load of utter nonsense. Its just yet another load of MLM rubbish. If you check the small print you will see that in order to earn just $200 you will need to sign up over 700 people. Making it out to be a social networking site like Facebook is simply their way of enticing you in. Don't waste your time.

[Bdboop]

That's assuming you don't earn anything by any other means, which is simply not true. ALSO assuming (lots of that in such a tiny post, Mr. Martin!) that you upgrade. Which is absolutely not necessary.

So with it being free - what exactly is your issue, Mr. Martin?

[Silverrain]

I've been hearing a bit about PeopleString lately... I agree that if Facebook were an MLM company, it would look something like this. It's an interesting idea, but I have some reservations about a company that's trading at $.03 a share.

In any case, let's focus on what's really important. Has anyone actually been paid--not awaiting payout, but received money into their bank account--by PeopleString? Have you recouped your investment (if any)?

[cneilson]

I'd be more concerned with the financials than the stock price. The company has been operating at a loss for four years running, but the two directors are drawing quite handsome salaries despite this.

[Silverrain]

Hmm, didn't know that. From the stock price I concluded that there wouldn't be (isn't?) enough resources to make sure everyone gets paid. Sounds like we're coming to the same conclusion, though.

[martin77]

Its fairly obvious by now that those people involved in this MLM Peoplestring operation are well advised to get out now.
And to those who might be foolishly contemplating joining ? As I said before....don't waste your time and effort. The writing is on the wall on this one.

No disrespect, Martin, but what exactly are your qualifications as a stock analyst? Had you done your research you would be aware that PeopleString is a NEW piece of BigString less than 1 year old and stems from the founder's realization that they needed to take a different direction with their technology in the sagging economy. As well, you do not ONLY get paid for recruiting, in fact that is a de minimis piece of the pie.

As far as has anyone been paid, the answer is yes. I very recently joined b/c I think it's at least an intriguing idea and a very good friend of mine is, in fact, getting paid with no hassles. No he has not made millions of dollars with PeopleString (lol) more like a couple hundred a month, which for the minimal time spent messing with it I think is a reasonable expectation. Just like any other start up in any other industry it may or may not pan out long-term but who cares since it's free to join and see what happens.

YOU'VE GOT THE *****

Control is ***** & ***** is Control ! ! !


How many times have you heard the sermon, Take control of your life?? Well that is ‘easier said than done’, is the typical reaction. The most control the majority of us ever have is the control exercised over our lives by forces beyond our own influence. I believe that any reasonable person would readily admit; that the laws and codes of conduct are vital for a free society to function. But to what extreme? Everyplace you turn to, there is some authority or *****-to-be telling you what you can do, can not do and what you should do! And it always costs you money!! Money is something we just don’t seem ever have enough accumulated. It’s not that we don’t want the ability to be in charge of our lives, it’s just that it takes ***** to do so!

You should wake up and smell the roses! You have that ***** and in this democracy of ours, you have always had that *****. It is a ***** you don’t even have to work for. It’s been there all along, staring you right in the face. All you have to is use it and it’s so simple. The ***** is totally economic. It’s the ***** to buy or not to buy. It’s the clout to choose what, where, when and how you want it. Want proof? Keep reading and I’ll prove it and show you how to use that *****. It won’t cost you a penny…in fact it will do just the opposite! That is right it will make you money!

Look around you; see all those huge Companies and organizations wooing you to do this and do that! They are telling you to buy this, to go here or to go there and on and on and on…..They don’t want you!…They only need you!!. Why do you think they spend so much money and go to great lengths to sell you their needs? In every which way you turn, there’s a marketing machine and a message aimed at you personally! There’s no escaping it unless you are living under a bridge! They hit you up at the movies! They get to you in your car too. They find you when you rental movie or when your reading a newspaper or magazine. They find you at the restaurant on the placemat or they get to you by telemarketing you @ home during the most inconvenient times! They interrupt your life, your dinner, your favorite TV show too! Our lives have become one big commercial and you’re their captive audience. Now what you’re really missing is their sounds of desperation. You see, because without you they can’t survive. For you see that is really the *****! Now we can show you how to use it. Why should it cost you a dime or a nickel every time you turn around? Let PeopleString show you how to make them pay you for the ***** to be involved in their little game and cut out the middleman. Your name has been sold so, so, so many times and you never had one thing to say about it. NOW YOU DO!!!

Ok, you say but how do I harness this *****? After all you reason; I do need certain services and goods to survive. Believe it or not, those businesses and organizations have a greater and more immediate need than you. Individuals always have the ability to cope when they have to. Companies and large organizations don’t have that luxury. They simply can’t move that fast. If they lose the consumer, even for the briefest time, they lose period! And believe me, they know it. Want clear evidence of that? Just be alert to the business news briefs that typically follow the evening newscast. When there is even the slightest decline in consumer spending or retail sales are slacking, it’s a major event. The stock market knows it and immediately punishes the stocks of companies affected. Nevertheless, in their arrogance, these business behemoths find comfort in the belief that they own the consumer/shopper. Look at it from their perspective. Compared to you, a tiny consumer, it’s no contest. They’re giant companies! To them the consumers are the great unwashed. They are perceived as a mass of unorganized individuals. They don’t believe consumers could ever pull together enough to make any real difference. Not likely to happen, they think. They believe that they’re merely fighting among themselves for ownership of the consumer. Let’s face it, consumers are little more than sheep with wallets and pocketbooks to be herded into their stores for a monetary shearing. Oh, there are been some moves to bind you to them. One example is the discount store. If they deem you to be a smart shopper with the will and time to seek out the most advantageous prices that’s where they’ll get you to go. Good grief, even the bare bones facilities of these so-called discount centers have the ambience of a slaughter house with out all the blood and guts being spewed all over the place!!

A step in the right direction is the shopping club outlet. In short, to be competitive and bring the best prices to their customers, they literally bully the manufacturers into deep discounts with their huge bulk orders. Consequently, they have the lowest prices for the goods offered. Their members more than offset the annual membership fee with savings realized. These organizations are large enough nationally to leverage their size and strength. Their shopping club members are quick to take advantage of the economies offered. As I said it’s a step in the right direction. However, it’s the giant company that’s in control. They’re doing the picking and choosing for the individual shopper. The individual may be under one roof shopping but they’re hardly em*****ed to the extent they would be if they were bound together into one huge network working for themselves. It’s time the individual recognizes his strength, flexes his muscle in the market place and takes the next step up in the financial food chain. For there lies the freedom of spirit and the pocketbook!

***** to the People


Today that attitude need not be tolerated. The Internet has changed everything. Yes, I know, many of you are bleeding from the current financial meltdown. Put this behind you. That was yesterday and this is now! Stop looking for those to blame and punish. There’s no percentage in that. Leave that activity up to the stock cops. What’s on the table here has nothing to do with that mess. To the contrary, this system is not only costless and risk free, but it enables the individual to cope, achieve wealth, build an asset and establish an independent self-renewing income flow for life and beyond. What’s more, it has the ability to organize all consumers, which works to your financial benefit as you will discover to the extent you decide to get involved.

Digital Real Estate

The Homestead of the New Millennium


What is Digital Real Estate? Digital Real Estate is the electronic bond between individuals that harnesses their collective purchasing ***** into the most significant economic force in the world. Once formed, this bond generates a continual stream of income and wealth without any additional work. Digital Real Estate allows you to create; free of any cost an asset that others will pay you to use. Digital Real Estate could become the most significant asset you will ever own. Read on and you will learn how your Digital Real Estate will allow you to gather thousands of others together. How would you like to earn $1 from 10,000 to 100,000 people each year? How about $5 or $10 every year from that same number of people?

Let There be Light – Behold the Internet!


Up to this point, the discussion has been about the ***** of the individual. Expand that truism to read as follows: The true ***** of the individual in his ability to bind himself or herself others to him in his endeavors. This is the ultimate opportunity that the internet brings to the table and it’s captured here for free. History teaches us; that in every great change or advance there is a marking of a major event, where it all began. You can be a part of that legacy and be a part of the SINGLE MOST *****FUL event in modern times. This, my friends is what the internet was made public for. THEY WOULD BE SORRY, FOR THEY NEVER KNEW WHAT THEY REALLY CREATED!!! It may yet prove to be the greatest event of all time. There is no doubt that the internet has and will continue to foster profound changes in our lives. The entire landscape of our planet’s culture has been altered. It is the key to future betterment and true entitlement! Yet, we have barely turned the key in the lock, much less open the door.

Where did it all start? The internet, I mean. Did it start with the personal computer? Certainly the computer; personal or otherwise made it possible, but it’s difficult to pinpoint exactly when and where the actual internet was born. If it was truly a military secret communications device as they say why was it made public?? I suspect it was more of a high speed evolution that big money and big ***** seen to really catapult themselves into the next millennium. It took many by surprise, including myself. When it arrived, I’d been around so long that I remember when the advent of the hand-held calculator was a big deal in its day! Oh how I loved the Sixtys and the Seventies! When we thought of computers it was in terms of mysterious massive mastodons of equipment occupying entire floors if not whole buildings. And it was!! I ran my first business with a Commodore 64 that used a cassette player for a hard drive! Now that was funny! It was unthinkable that small businesses and individuals would have personal computers at their disposal much less to the point where households would harbor one or more. Much less that they could pull information out of the air!

At first, the personal computer came on the scene as little more than a complex word processor/calculator with modest program capabilities like my Commodore 64. It was very expensive for the day and you got very little functionality other than simple data bases. I didn’t trust them at first. And that was a commonality among the first users or on lookers. Then came the email programs and I trusted those even less! Online shopping and the real beginnings of the internet, per se, followed! …Maybe it was the other way around? I didn’t care because by then I was paranoid with distrust. However, they were wrong when they said old dogs can’t be taught new tricks. I’m living proof that you can. To my satisfaction and reward … oh boy …have I learned and adapted!

Digital Real Estate Empire


Here we are today, just a few years down the road of the internet’s technological explosion! The internet has changed the world and yet its true ***** has thus far not been understood and utilized. So committed to the past paths, trends or even perhaps ruts …so tied to the traditional …locked into conventional …are the titans of industry…. that they fail to comprehend the internet’s greatest strength! The internet’s true ***** is not its ability to provide merchants and middle men with the opportunity to sell direct to the consumer. Nor is the internet’s function to perform mundane tasks of delivering messages or blanketing the population with advertising ad nauseum. Nor is it meant to spread chain letters, jokes (usually in bad taste) or to provide chat rooms or to facilitate auctions. It was not even invented to invade people’s privacy with the barrages of spam notices and email, etc.

Nothing could be further from the TRUTH! The ***** of the internet is that it em*****s the individual. That unique ability has been recognized by someone I know to be a disruptor and an internet GURU! A GURU among GURU’s where the ***** of the internet is concerned. I have known him for over 20 years. I watched him change the online insurance business for what it is today! I am also pleased to call him a personal friend. Trust me, that man is Darin Myman. You see, Darin Myman is the CEO of a public Technology Company called BigString. Darin for well over the past four years, has been overseeing an investment of over $5,000,000 of public money and countless hours of research developing; in what will be truly the greatest technology platform ever built! Darin’s pioneering spirit has enabled the internet to operate as it was meant to be! Instead of the hodge-podge of hustle that abounds today, a web of people from all walks of life; economic and ethic backgrounds from all four corners of the globe will be bonded ! LIKE NEVER BEFORE!! It is a web that em*****s the collective individual to do what has never been done before!!! Why, you ask? The reason is because frankly, it wasn’t feasible before. The technology simply didn’t exist. Until the internet, there wasn’t any means to effectively connect instantly large groups of people with a common purpose. For the first time in the history of mankind there is a system that makes possible the ***** of individuals to be bound together. Once formed, such a bond becomes a new asset …possibly the most valuable asset ever, because it has the muscle to change individual’s lives forever. Just go and ask President Obama and he will tell you his election was living proof of that!

We’ve named this Digital Real Estate for very good reasons and purposes too. Just give me a moment and it will become clear to you, as well. Why this label? First understand what distinguishes this new digital real estate from its corporeal brethren. What it is, in comparison, is limitless in every conceivable way! Strong language you say and I agree, but follow along with me. For the sake of discussion, let’s say you acquired an investment in real estate. Real Estate by definition is a hard asset such as a parcel of land. If it’s a good section of land or a house or office building. You’ve done it all correctly. The location is great; you bought early and paid the right price. However, no matter how successful that investment may become, there are limits as to what it can return in profits or be used for. For example, it can only support a certain amount of structures, or be cashed in once, or lived in, rented to a fixed number of tenants, grow so many crops on, etc. Of course, you also had to shell out cash for the purchase. It may have been your nest egg or borrowed funds or a leveraged structure, etc. No matter which, an investment of hard assets of sorts had to be made and arrangements, legal or otherwise, entered into. None of that is involved with the acquisition of Digital Real Estate. As stated earlier, now is the time. This is the ground floor. Perhaps even the basement or the infrastructure of the sky scraper! It is where the early arrivals get the biggest bang and the best real estate value and return. Those that take advantage now as it is just emerging free, will own that which is the most valuable. It is not possible, at this point, to determine just how valuable it will be! What is certain, is that the “Digital Real Estate” market will truly be an immense market!

To be honest, although we unashamedly believe ourselves to be visionaries, we know that we haven’t come close to having thought of or discovered the many ways this digital landscape will *****e into other income producing engines. We’ll cross that bridge together when we come to it. For now, we’re going to show you how to seize and create your personal free digital homestead. We are going to demonstrate how to make money with it, from the very moment you state your claim! Then next will come, the development of a lifetime self-perpetuating income stream.

Dot Com and Dot Gone?


Despite all the hoopla and the giving of credit to what the internet has accomplished; with its arrival on our cultural shores, it hasn’t begun to nearly impact our lives nor realize a fraction of its potential. Yeah, I know, you think it’s fantastic and how impossible it would be to live without it. I’ve heard it all and as far as that goes it’s all correct, but only up to a point. In terms of its potential, the internet has barely begun to develop its ***** and influence on our way of life.

Think about it. Thus far, with the exception of a few corporate giants, the industry has been characterized by a multitude of false starts, scams and misadventures. True, that didn’t stop the dot com crowd; fueled by wretched excessive greed and naiveté, from helping our friends on Wall Street push the hype to an exuberant crescendo! As we all know, it peaked in March 2000. The Dot Com hype exploded and the debris rained down. Just when the bulk of the damage had passed, the Financial Crisis emerged and spread to all industries. From this debate, a handful of giant firms emerged. You know who they are. While I’m all for giving them credit where it’s due! I am not that taken with these large dominating fellows. Why? Because, there is an enormous internet potential that they don’t see. They may be the new boys in town but it might as well be the old boys’ network doing business as usual with just a twist or two!.

Digital Real Estate …Stop Giving Yours Away?


There is no more relevant historic parallel of this opportunity before the individual today, than The Homestead Act of 1862. This act is one of the most important pieces of legislation in the history of the United States. Signed into law by the greatest president to date, Abraham Lincoln, after the secession of Southern States. This Act turned over vast amounts of the public domain to private citizens. (REAL ESTATE) In total, 270 millions acres or 10% of the area of the United States was claimed and settled under this act. All for virtually free!

Think about it! A homesteader had only to be the head of a household and at least 21 years of age to claim a 160 acre parcel of land. Settlers from all walks of life including newly arriving immigrants, share croppers without land of their own from the East! It included single women and former slaves and every walk of life came to meet the challenge of “proving up” and keeping this “free land.” Each homesteader had to live on the land, build a home, and make improvements and farm for 5 years before they were eligible to “prove up.” A total filing fee of $18 was the only money required. That was well over $200.00 in todays world! But still a fraction of the value for a lifetime of income from the Real Estate, to share for generations and generations to come…..

It was the greatest land grab in our country’s history … A windfall for many without a nickel to their name. Fortunes were made. The riches that lay on and beneath the surface of those free lands were oil, gold & silver, fertile farm lands, lush cattle ranges, etc …It was all for the taking. What a coup that was for the visionaries and pioneers of that time. And for most… it involved much more risk….. than let’s say; the Markets expose us to….. today!

The Homestead Act is recognized as one of the most revolutionary concepts for distributing public land in American history. It was also a great disruptor to the old money regime in its time! Favorable repercussions of this monumental piece of legislation can be detected throughout America today. In short, the act of an enlightened government gave away free tangible assets in order to develop the nation’s great natural resources by tapping into its utmost strength, the individual citizen. It was the right thing to do. Above all, it recognized the dignity and vigor of the individual. And it paid off. The rewards to citizen and country were huge. Now, after all that time, a new grand opportunity has emerged: The Internet. It offers the individual a gigantic free intangible piece of real estate. It is at least as valuable as the historic Homestead Act’s give away …possibly greater!

Intangible is defined by Webster New Collegiate Dictionary as: An asset that is not corporeal. The internet may not have corporeal substance but it sure as hell is the most potent form of real estate today. Representing the biggest property grab ever, it certainly can be developed as well as any acreage of yesteryear. It represents a colossal windfall for the modern-day citizen pioneer with grit and determination …and it’s free.

STOP GIVING YOURS AWAY TO COMPANIES LIKE FACEBOOK, TWITTER AND MYSPACE, DON’T STOP USING THOSE SITES; JUST MAKE SURE YOU ARE GETTING YOUR FAIR SHARE!

What Makes This Different?


There’s an army of books out there on how to cash in on multiple streams of internet income. The reverse funnel, the viral marketer, the blogologists and on and on and on! On balance what these books present is mostly accurate, but They miss the biggest opportunity of all. The opportunity that most will not follow unless it is “Purely Simple” and easy to do! Just as a deer is trapped in the headlights of an oncoming car, the author pontiffs are blinded by the rule of the establishment. The truth is They’re an unwilling servant of the establishment. Worst yet, They don’t even know They are. And that is the funniest part of the whole deal.

Okay, then who and what is the establishment that everybody talks about but nobody ever meets? Let’s give them a name. They are They. All through life we hear about the Theys. They did that, They say this; Do this They tell us; etc. They possess the real *****. There are those that believe that They are the ones in charge, accountable for everything. To some They are the source of life’s problems. Actually, They are everybody in the establishment with the exception of us. We’ll never be one of the They, not that we should aspire to. In fact, if I ever catch up with one of the They, I think I’m gonna kick him in the butt!

Wanna know how They speak about us? We “the ordinary people!” Come on, you’ve seen it on countless headlines, books, brainless commercials and even on 60 Minute’s commentaries. Don’t those piss you off? It does me. It’s downright demeaning. The theme, “How ordinary people can make extraordinary money on-line” is the most offensive. Ordinary people? How dare They. They consider ordinary people to be subhuman rather then the ones that built this country with their ******, imagination, hard work and sacrifice. Contrary to their opinion, ordinary people are the extraordinary ones that made this great nation what it is. It is the establishment that is sub-ordinary.

But, sub-ordinary or not, it is the establishment that has also highjacked so many great opportunities from right under our noses. Just look at what happened with the advent of the internet. In effect They said, ok, it’s a new medium to carry our messages and continue doing business as usual. Consequently, we’re subjected to more advertisements reaching into the private corners of our everyday lives. We’re sold even harder to. Their effort is to bring you to their internet site. Because once on their site, it’s their belief, they possess you. The industry expression is “We own their eyeballs!” These folks are not going to interact with the consumer; share the benefits and efficiencies the internet brings to them or pass on the tremendous savings and it goes on and on and on…. No, all the consumer is going to get, is more intrusive advertisements thrown at them in the belief that the consumers can be corralled as a mindless herd into buy, buy, buy!

The technology has now changed! It is giving the individual the ability to have the ***** over everyone. The individual is now more important to the group. They don’t want change. In fact, they’re fearful of the type of change the internet carries because it will alter for all time the methodology of how business is done. It has and will continue to change the life of the consumer for the better and They for the worst. We’re not speaking of the manufacturers producing product. Rather, were addressing those of the They; “the middlemen”, expending money and effort to sell you and then charging for their effort in the price of the goods and services purchased. They will no longer be able to market at you! They will be forced to market with you! Why? All because the internet will bring people together enabling them to employ that ***** over the establishment. We have called it PeopleString!

And now They have got their grubby paws around the internet attempting to take possession and to gather every single cent from it. Well, it isn’t gonna happen. You can beat them to the punch because They don’t have a clue. This one is ours!

Hey Dinkel, how about learning not to post your affiliate website in body of the post. With all Kool-Aid you are drinking, learn about forum rules a little bit too.

MLM is a business strategy and is not rubbish if you get in the right one. Is Avon rubbish? Is Pampered Chec..Is Amway...Is MayKay? All multi-million dollar industries! You just have to find the right one or join a new one that is at a ground floor level...i.e., new and unique and wanted by everyone. They are out there. MLM is recommended by experts including Robert Kyosaki http://www.wynman.com/kiyos.html and Donald Trump recommend MLM or Network Marketing. Also see http://www.scam.com/showthread.php?t=18247. You are doing a disservice to people who may and can be successful in the right MLM.

How many times have you heard the sermon, Take control of your life?? Well that is ‘easier said than done’, is the typical reaction. The most control the majority of us ever have is the control exercised over our lives by forces beyond our own influence. I believe that any reasonable person would readily admit; that the laws and codes of conduct are vital for a free society to function. But to what extreme? Everyplace you turn to, there is some authority or *****-to-be telling you what you can do, can not do and what you should do! And it always costs you money!! Money is something we just don’t seem ever have enough accumulated. It’s not that we don’t want the ability to be in charge of our lives, it’s just that it takes ***** to do so!

You should wake up and smell the roses! You have that ***** and in this democracy of ours, you have always had that *****. It is a ***** you don’t even have to work for. It’s been there all along, staring you right in the face. All you have to is use it and it’s so simple. The ***** is totally economic. It’s the ***** to buy or not to buy. It’s the clout to choose what, where, when and how you want it. Want proof? Keep reading and I’ll prove it and show you how to use that *****. It won’t cost you a penny…in fact it will do just the opposite! That is right it will make you money!

Look around you; see all those huge Companies and organizations wooing you to do this and do that! They are telling you to buy this, to go here or to go there and on and on and on…..They don’t want you!…They only need you!!. Why do you think they spend so much money and go to great lengths to sell you their needs? In every which way you turn, there’s a marketing machine and a message aimed at you personally! There’s no escaping it unless you are living under a bridge! They hit you up at the movies! They get to you in your car too. They find you when you rental movie or when your reading a newspaper or magazine. They find you at the restaurant on the placemat or they get to you by telemarketing you @ home during the most inconvenient times! They interrupt your life, your dinner, your favorite TV show too! Our lives have become one big commercial and you’re their captive audience. Now what you’re really missing is their sounds of desperation. You see, because without you they can’t survive. For you see that is really the *****! Now we can show you how to use it. Why should it cost you a dime or a nickel every time you turn around? Let PeopleString show you how to make them pay you for the ***** to be involved in their little game and cut out the middleman. Your name has been sold so, so, so many times and you never had one thing to say about it. NOW YOU DO!!!

Ok, you say but how do I harness this *****? After all you reason; I do need certain services and goods to survive. Believe it or not, those businesses and organizations have a greater and more immediate need than you. Individuals always have the ability to cope when they have to. Companies and large organizations don’t have that luxury. They simply can’t move that fast. If they lose the consumer, even for the briefest time, they lose period! And believe me, they know it. Want clear evidence of that? Just be alert to the business news briefs that typically follow the evening newscast. When there is even the slightest decline in consumer spending or retail sales are slacking, it’s a major event. The stock market knows it and immediately punishes the stocks of companies affected. Nevertheless, in their arrogance, these business behemoths find comfort in the belief that they own the consumer/shopper. Look at it from their perspective. Compared to you, a tiny consumer, it’s no contest. They’re giant companies! To them the consumers are the great unwashed. They are perceived as a mass of unorganized individuals. They don’t believe consumers could ever pull together enough to make any real difference. Not likely to happen, they think. They believe that they’re merely fighting among themselves for ownership of the consumer. Let’s face it, consumers are little more than sheep with wallets and pocketbooks to be herded into their stores for a monetary shearing. Oh, there are been some moves to bind you to them. One example is the discount store. If they deem you to be a smart shopper with the will and time to seek out the most advantageous prices that’s where they’ll get you to go. Good grief, even the bare bones facilities of these so-called discount centers have the ambience of a slaughter house with out all the blood and guts being spewed all over the place!!

A step in the right direction is the shopping club outlet. In short, to be competitive and bring the best prices to their customers, they literally bully the manufacturers into deep discounts with their huge bulk orders. Consequently, they have the lowest prices for the goods offered. Their members more than offset the annual membership fee with savings realized. These organizations are large enough nationally to leverage their size and strength. Their shopping club members are quick to take advantage of the economies offered. As I said it’s a step in the right direction. However, it’s the giant company that’s in control. They’re doing the picking and choosing for the individual shopper. The individual may be under one roof shopping but they’re hardly em*****ed to the extent they would be if they were bound together into one huge network working for themselves. It’s time the individual recognizes his strength, flexes his muscle in the market place and takes the next step up in the financial food chain. For there lies the freedom of spirit and the pocketbook!

***** to the People


Today that attitude need not be tolerated. The Internet has changed everything. Yes, I know, many of you are bleeding from the current financial meltdown. Put this behind you. That was yesterday and this is now! Stop looking for those to blame and punish. There’s no percentage in that. Leave that activity up to the stock cops. What’s on the table here has nothing to do with that mess. To the contrary, this system is not only costless and risk free, but it enables the individual to cope, achieve wealth, build an asset and establish an independent self-renewing income flow for life and beyond. What’s more, it has the ability to organize all consumers, which works to your financial benefit as you will discover to the extent you decide to get involved.

Digital Real Estate

The Homestead of the New Millennium


What is Digital Real Estate? Digital Real Estate is the electronic bond between individuals that harnesses their collective purchasing ***** into the most significant economic force in the world. Once formed, this bond generates a continual stream of income and wealth without any additional work. Digital Real Estate allows you to create; free of any cost an asset that others will pay you to use. Digital Real Estate could become the most significant asset you will ever own. Read on and you will learn how your Digital Real Estate will allow you to gather thousands of others together. How would you like to earn $1 from 10,000 to 100,000 people each year? How about $5 or $10 every year from that same number of people?

Let There be Light – Behold the Internet!


Up to this point, the discussion has been about the ***** of the individual. Expand that truism to read as follows: The true ***** of the individual in his ability to bind himself or herself others to him in his endeavors. This is the ultimate opportunity that the internet brings to the table and it’s captured here for free. History teaches us; that in every great change or advance there is a marking of a major event, where it all began. You can be a part of that legacy and be a part of the SINGLE MOST *****FUL event in modern times. This, my friends is what the internet was made public for. THEY WOULD BE SORRY, FOR THEY NEVER KNEW WHAT THEY REALLY CREATED!!! It may yet prove to be the greatest event of all time. There is no doubt that the internet has and will continue to foster profound changes in our lives. The entire landscape of our planet’s culture has been altered. It is the key to future betterment and true entitlement! Yet, we have barely turned the key in the lock, much less open the door.

Where did it all start? The internet, I mean. Did it start with the personal computer? Certainly the computer; personal or otherwise made it possible, but it’s difficult to pinpoint exactly when and where the actual internet was born. If it was truly a military secret communications device as they say why was it made public?? I suspect it was more of a high speed evolution that big money and big ***** seen to really catapult themselves into the next millennium. It took many by surprise, including myself. When it arrived, I’d been around so long that I remember when the advent of the hand-held calculator was a big deal in its day! Oh how I loved the Sixtys and the Seventies! When we thought of computers it was in terms of mysterious massive mastodons of equipment occupying entire floors if not whole buildings. And it was!! I ran my first business with a Commodore 64 that used a cassette player for a hard drive! Now that was funny! It was unthinkable that small businesses and individuals would have personal computers at their disposal much less to the point where households would harbor one or more. Much less that they could pull information out of the air!

At first, the personal computer came on the scene as little more than a complex word processor/calculator with modest program capabilities like my Commodore 64. It was very expensive for the day and you got very little functionality other than simple data bases. I didn’t trust them at first. And that was a commonality among the first users or on lookers. Then came the email programs and I trusted those even less! Online shopping and the real beginnings of the internet, per se, followed! …Maybe it was the other way around? I didn’t care because by then I was paranoid with distrust. However, they were wrong when they said old dogs can’t be taught new tricks. I’m living proof that you can. To my satisfaction and reward … oh boy …have I learned and adapted!

Digital Real Estate Empire


Here we are today, just a few years down the road of the internet’s technological explosion! The internet has changed the world and yet its true ***** has thus far not been understood and utilized. So committed to the past paths, trends or even perhaps ruts …so tied to the traditional …locked into conventional …are the titans of industry…. that they fail to comprehend the internet’s greatest strength! The internet’s true ***** is not its ability to provide merchants and middle men with the opportunity to sell direct to the consumer. Nor is the internet’s function to perform mundane tasks of delivering messages or blanketing the population with advertising ad nauseum. Nor is it meant to spread chain letters, jokes (usually in bad taste) or to provide chat rooms or to facilitate auctions. It was not even invented to invade people’s privacy with the barrages of spam notices and email, etc.

Nothing could be further from the TRUTH! The ***** of the internet is that it em*****s the individual. That unique ability has been recognized by someone I know to be a disruptor and an internet GURU! A GURU among GURU’s where the ***** of the internet is concerned. I have known him for over 20 years. I watched him change the online insurance business for what it is today! I am also pleased to call him a personal friend. Trust me, that man is Darin Myman. You see, Darin Myman is the CEO of a public Technology Company called BigString. Darin for well over the past four years, has been overseeing an investment of over $5,000,000 of public money and countless hours of research developing; in what will be truly the greatest technology platform ever built! Darin’s pioneering spirit has enabled the internet to operate as it was meant to be! Instead of the hodge-podge of hustle that abounds today, a web of people from all walks of life; economic and ethic backgrounds from all four corners of the globe will be bonded ! LIKE NEVER BEFORE!! It is a web that em*****s the collective individual to do what has never been done before!!! Why, you ask? The reason is because frankly, it wasn’t feasible before. The technology simply didn’t exist. Until the internet, there wasn’t any means to effectively connect instantly large groups of people with a common purpose. For the first time in the history of mankind there is a system that makes possible the ***** of individuals to be bound together. Once formed, such a bond becomes a new asset …possibly the most valuable asset ever, because it has the muscle to change individual’s lives forever. Just go and ask President Obama and he will tell you his election was living proof of that!

We’ve named this Digital Real Estate for very good reasons and purposes too. Just give me a moment and it will become clear to you, as well. Why this label? First understand what distinguishes this new digital real estate from its corporeal brethren. What it is, in comparison, is limitless in every conceivable way! Strong language you say and I agree, but follow along with me. For the sake of discussion, let’s say you acquired an investment in real estate. Real Estate by definition is a hard asset such as a parcel of land. If it’s a good section of land or a house or office building. You’ve done it all correctly. The location is great; you bought early and paid the right price. However, no matter how successful that investment may become, there are limits as to what it can return in profits or be used for. For example, it can only support a certain amount of structures, or be cashed in once, or lived in, rented to a fixed number of tenants, grow so many crops on, etc. Of course, you also had to shell out cash for the purchase. It may have been your nest egg or borrowed funds or a leveraged structure, etc. No matter which, an investment of hard assets of sorts had to be made and arrangements, legal or otherwise, entered into. None of that is involved with the acquisition of Digital Real Estate. As stated earlier, now is the time. This is the ground floor. Perhaps even the basement or the infrastructure of the sky scraper! It is where the early arrivals get the biggest bang and the best real estate value and return. Those that take advantage now as it is just emerging free, will own that which is the most valuable. It is not possible, at this point, to determine just how valuable it will be! What is certain, is that the “Digital Real Estate” market will truly be an immense market!

To be honest, although we unashamedly believe ourselves to be visionaries, we know that we haven’t come close to having thought of or discovered the many ways this digital landscape will *****e into other income producing engines. We’ll cross that bridge together when we come to it. For now, we’re going to show you how to seize and create your personal free digital homestead. We are going to demonstrate how to make money with it, from the very moment you state your claim! Then next will come, the development of a lifetime self-perpetuating income stream.

Dot Com and Dot Gone?


Despite all the hoopla and the giving of credit to what the internet has accomplished; with its arrival on our cultural shores, it hasn’t begun to nearly impact our lives nor realize a fraction of its potential. Yeah, I know, you think it’s fantastic and how impossible it would be to live without it. I’ve heard it all and as far as that goes it’s all correct, but only up to a point. In terms of its potential, the internet has barely begun to develop its ***** and influence on our way of life.

Think about it. Thus far, with the exception of a few corporate giants, the industry has been characterized by a multitude of false starts, scams and misadventures. True, that didn’t stop the dot com crowd; fueled by wretched excessive greed and naiveté, from helping our friends on Wall Street push the hype to an exuberant crescendo! As we all know, it peaked in March 2000. The Dot Com hype exploded and the debris rained down. Just when the bulk of the damage had passed, the Financial Crisis emerged and spread to all industries. From this debate, a handful of giant firms emerged. You know who they are. While I’m all for giving them credit where it’s due! I am not that taken with these large dominating fellows. Why? Because, there is an enormous internet potential that they don’t see. They may be the new boys in town but it might as well be the old boys’ network doing business as usual with just a twist or two!.

Digital Real Estate …Stop Giving Yours Away?


There is no more relevant historic parallel of this opportunity before the individual today, than The Homestead Act of 1862. This act is one of the most important pieces of legislation in the history of the United States. Signed into law by the greatest president to date, Abraham Lincoln, after the secession of Southern States. This Act turned over vast amounts of the public domain to private citizens. (REAL ESTATE) In total, 270 millions acres or 10% of the area of the United States was claimed and settled under this act. All for virtually free!

Think about it! A homesteader had only to be the head of a household and at least 21 years of age to claim a 160 acre parcel of land. Settlers from all walks of life including newly arriving immigrants, share croppers without land of their own from the East! It included single women and former slaves and every walk of life came to meet the challenge of “proving up” and keeping this “free land.” Each homesteader had to live on the land, build a home, and make improvements and farm for 5 years before they were eligible to “prove up.” A total filing fee of $18 was the only money required. That was well over $200.00 in todays world! But still a fraction of the value for a lifetime of income from the Real Estate, to share for generations and generations to come…..

It was the greatest land grab in our country’s history … A windfall for many without a nickel to their name. Fortunes were made. The riches that lay on and beneath the surface of those free lands were oil, gold & silver, fertile farm lands, lush cattle ranges, etc …It was all for the taking. What a coup that was for the visionaries and pioneers of that time. And for most… it involved much more risk….. than let’s say; the Markets expose us to….. today!

The Homestead Act is recognized as one of the most revolutionary concepts for distributing public land in American history. It was also a great disruptor to the old money regime in its time! Favorable repercussions of this monumental piece of legislation can be detected throughout America today. In short, the act of an enlightened government gave away free tangible assets in order to develop the nation’s great natural resources by tapping into its utmost strength, the individual citizen. It was the right thing to do. Above all, it recognized the dignity and vigor of the individual. And it paid off. The rewards to citizen and country were huge. Now, after all that time, a new grand opportunity has emerged: The Internet. It offers the individual a gigantic free intangible piece of real estate. It is at least as valuable as the historic Homestead Act’s give away …possibly greater!

Intangible is defined by Webster New Collegiate Dictionary as: An asset that is not corporeal. The internet may not have corporeal substance but it sure as hell is the most potent form of real estate today. Representing the biggest property grab ever, it certainly can be developed as well as any acreage of yesteryear. It represents a colossal windfall for the modern-day citizen pioneer with grit and determination …and it’s free.

STOP GIVING YOURS AWAY TO COMPANIES LIKE FACEBOOK, TWITTER AND MYSPACE, DON’T STOP USING THOSE SITES; JUST MAKE SURE YOU ARE GETTING YOUR FAIR SHARE!

What Makes This Different?


There’s an army of books out there on how to cash in on multiple streams of internet income. The reverse funnel, the viral marketer, the blogologists and on and on and on! On balance what these books present is mostly accurate, but They miss the biggest opportunity of all. The opportunity that most will not follow unless it is “Purely Simple” and easy to do! Just as a deer is trapped in the headlights of an oncoming car, the author pontiffs are blinded by the rule of the establishment. The truth is They’re an unwilling servant of the establishment. Worst yet, They don’t even know They are. And that is the funniest part of the whole deal.

Okay, then who and what is the establishment that everybody talks about but nobody ever meets? Let’s give them a name. They are They. All through life we hear about the Theys. They did that, They say this; Do this They tell us; etc. They possess the real *****. There are those that believe that They are the ones in charge, accountable for everything. To some They are the source of life’s problems. Actually, They are everybody in the establishment with the exception of us. We’ll never be one of the They, not that we should aspire to. In fact, if I ever catch up with one of the They, I think I’m gonna kick him in the butt!

Wanna know how They speak about us? We “the ordinary people!” Come on, you’ve seen it on countless headlines, books, brainless commercials and even on 60 Minute’s commentaries. Don’t those piss you off? It does me. It’s downright demeaning. The theme, “How ordinary people can make extraordinary money on-line” is the most offensive. Ordinary people? How dare They. They consider ordinary people to be subhuman rather then the ones that built this country with their ******, imagination, hard work and sacrifice. Contrary to their opinion, ordinary people are the extraordinary ones that made this great nation what it is. It is the establishment that is sub-ordinary.

But, sub-ordinary or not, it is the establishment that has also highjacked so many great opportunities from right under our noses. Just look at what happened with the advent of the internet. In effect They said, ok, it’s a new medium to carry our messages and continue doing business as usual. Consequently, we’re subjected to more advertisements reaching into the private corners of our everyday lives. We’re sold even harder to. Their effort is to bring you to their internet site. Because once on their site, it’s their belief, they possess you. The industry expression is “We own their eyeballs!” These folks are not going to interact with the consumer; share the benefits and efficiencies the internet brings to them or pass on the tremendous savings and it goes on and on and on…. No, all the consumer is going to get, is more intrusive advertisements thrown at them in the belief that the consumers can be corralled as a mindless herd into buy, buy, buy!

The technology has now changed! It is giving the individual the ability to have the ***** over everyone. The individual is now more important to the group. They don’t want change. In fact, they’re fearful of the type of change the internet carries because it will alter for all time the methodology of how business is done. It has and will continue to change the life of the consumer for the better and They for the worst. We’re not speaking of the manufacturers producing product. Rather, were addressing those of the They; “the middlemen”, expending money and effort to sell you and then charging for their effort in the price of the goods and services purchased. They will no longer be able to market at you! They will be forced to market with you! Why? All because the internet will bring people together enabling them to employ that ***** over the establishment. We have called it PeopleString!

And now They have got their grubby paws around the internet attempting to take possession and to gather every single cent from it. Well, it isn’t gonna happen. You can beat them to the punch because They don’t have a clue. This one is ours!

Well, if I could show you how to make that $1000 in 1 month, wouldn't you be interested? Why wait 6 months to get $1000. I got that in my first month! I wouldn't waste my time on this peoplestring thing. Too much work...not enough return. All MLM you need to work, but not that hard....pennies???

[ulltimm]

In my opinion, anything that is new should be viewed with sceptical eyes.

There are a lot of scams out there on the internet. I have joined many programs and before getting to the site I am given an OTO (One Time Offer) to upgrade before really kowing what the program is all about.

When I join a new program, I want to check it out from the inside, to learn what really is going on here, so to say, "Kick the tires".

With PeopleString, I have the opportunity to do this for FREE. I have the opportunity to upgrade later for the same price as I did when registering. This is makes the whole thing a lot more believable.

When you join PeopleString you are not blasted with hype about getting rich quick, as happens with a lot oif other opportunities that are offered out there, many with a much higher price than $200 Entrepreneur Package with PeopleString.

My advice to all those sceptics out there is, why don't you just check it out for FREE. See if there are any benifits in it for you. Enroll in Mailbox-Cashbox and earn a little extra money for FREE. Search the internet, shop online, send your personal E-mails, meet new people, take advantage of some offers, in other words do everything that you are doing already, but earn some extra money. It is FREE!! It will not cost you a dime, not even a cent - IT IS FREE, FREE, FREE!

PeopleString offers valuable trainings on maketing on the internet. These are also FREE.

I have been a member since March 2009, and yes, I have been paid. In fact I get paid regularly, which is more than I can say for Facebook, MySpace and the other Networks that I am in.

So, all you sceptics out there, I invite you to check it out from the inside befor posting all you negative thoughts.

My link to PeopleString where you will see a little bit more about the opportunity is [No Affiliate Links in Posts, Please.]

I wish you all a wonderful day and success in all your activities.

You are right. The writing IS on the wall. However, it does not say what you think it says. :)

I've been paid. Once. Another payment is around the corner, as I have made another $25 but not at the "every-other-week" payment. Have I recouped my investment? No. But I'm 1/4 of the way there, and I've been a member since August 2nd. And, I hardly promote. I have like 166 in my string at this point in time.

Well I get paid regularly by PeopleString. It is a worthwhile adventure. PeopleString is getting rolling. They pay punctually and I am earning money from several activities on the Portal. And just by the way, I have 200 personally sponsored members and that has developed a string of 1500 members total. Just try it before you try to beat it down. You don't know what you are talking about, when you just try to rip it apart.

Have a nice day, anyway.

Wow, Bobbydin; Thank You!

Let the record show, the detractors are not saying PS is a scam; just that it's not
big enough or quick enough for them.

No doubt they aren't allergic (or scared of) classic 'net and/or network marketing, unlike
most internet users. the vastness of the potential niche (wait, i said that wrong) -- the
potential vastness of the niche of pre-internet marketing is almost unfathomable.

i don't mean, before internet marketing, but the stuff that lots of us did before deciding
to take on internet marketing. i think most people try to do surveys, pay to click,
surf affiliate pages in hit exchanges, and similar easy, non-technical, uncomplicated things
that almost always end in disappointment and giving up. a distinct (acutally HUGE) minority
go on to learn the real stuff.

but what if something comes along, and is a model for how anyone really can make some
extra spending cash (or bill paying cash) without learning all that "marketing crap"? the
word on the street could eventually spread like wildfire. moreover, once people get some
success with the pre-internet marketing stuff, they are more likely to be inspired to take it
to the next level.

i believe peoplestring, and other companies that can funnel some of those billions of advertising dollars no longer going to print, tv, and radio, but to the internet, and help
give it to the people who are actually viewing the ads -- could become a revolution, of sorts.
(at least a mega-trend...at least I'm hoping.)

My thanks to Bobbydin and everyone else who posted the PS experiences. I'm sold.

And Bobbydin, I am so impressed with your writing eloquence and grand scale perspective.
I am going to share your tome with one of my main mentors (and JV partner) Chris Farrell, who is oft heard repeating his assertion that the internet is but a baby capable of the almost unimaginably wonderful.

We live in such a fast food society that majority think if you don't make thousands of dollars a month right away promoting a program is a waste of time. I know several great marketers that generate 50-100 leads a day. I know people that pay for leads everyday. With People String you even get paid $.50 for each lead when they complete their 30 question profile and submit their code they recieve in the mail in 30 days. My record day was 40 leads generated in a day. That is a potential extra $20 that I could make every day. It sure beats paying for leads or earning nothing for a Free lead. This is why I think People String is different then a lot of companies. Most companies if I free member does not want to recruit you make $0 from them. In People String you can make $.50 off them plus as they complete offers you earn either 6% if you are a free member and 20% if you are an upgraded member. Of course, for the big time money you need people that can duplicate your success of recruiting as many people as possible. I like the magic number of 10 people. Just think about the ***** of 10 people generating 50 leads a day. You have 500 people every day. Now, most will do little to nothing. However, you will still earn off of most everyone plus new leaders will join your organization in time. I still think its a good 3-5 year plan to really get to a nice 6 and or 7 figure income. Thats alright, people go to school hoping to increase their salary in 5 years and getting a good paying job and keeping it is almost more challenging then being successful at people string. Just some food for thought.

Have a great day!
Dave

oh do get real. You know perfectly well that the vast majority of people have little or no hope of generating anything like 50 leads a day . ( which would in effect earn them $25 ). Most people will not even generate 5 leads a day . Why ? Because its very difficult to get traffic and when you do its very hard to entice them to sign up to anything. PeopleString is not a red hot venture that people will rush to sign up to. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but there it is. Sometimes the truth does hurt.

So - what? You're into "get rich quick"? This isn't THAT, by the way.

Oh, absolutely it does.

Not this time though. You know nothing about it, do you? If you did, you'd know the bulk of the money to be made isn't from the .50 for signups. It's from Mailbox/Cashbox.

What bulk of the money ? You've been paid once in 4 months .
PeopleString definetly isn't Get -Rich -Quick its more Make -A -Tiny- Bit -Of -Cash -Over -A -Long -Period -Of -Time.

Martin,

You're being too kind.

This is a scam. The numbers should tell you instantly that it's not even multilevel marketing, it's a pyramid scheme.

The key to a pyramid scheme is payouts to early, vocal marks who join the shills in proclaiming how much money they've made.

The internet makes that a lot simpler in this scam by depositing fake money into an "account" and tracking fake contacts/leads/points/coins - whatever.

It's sweet because it hooks the mark AND creates an expectation of delay - the key to any pyramid scheme.

Another key sign of the scam is the ask you find buried in the long diatribe by whatever shill is writing on behalf of the this peoplestring nonsense. $200 - exactly. That's a tipoff.

There's no value in the leads. Plenty of people on Twitter have thousands of followers, some tens and hundreds of thousands and Twitter doesn't make money yet.

There's money to be made on the Internet - particularly on scams.

[martin77]

@obla8 Most eloquently put Sir. You've summed up
PeopleString perfectly in my opinion. I just feel sorry for all
the people banging away promoting this nonsense in the vain
hope that they'll make money.

Okies. Since neither of you realize that roughly 1% of our members are entrepreneurs, leaving 99% free members (of 250,000) - .... I give. Beating my head against a brick wall has never been my favorite way to pass the time.

Ciao.

I agree with you. These guys don't have the fogiest idea of what they are talking about.

PeopleString is a great opportunity. The payments are punctual. The opportunities are growing and it is unique on the internet.

Have a great day all you blind sceptics. You are really missing out.

"Shill" can also be used pejoratively to describe a critic who appears either all-too-eager to heap glowing praise upon mediocre offerings, or who acts as an apologist for glaring flaws. In this sense, they would be an implicit "shill" for the industry at large, possibly because their income is tied to its prosperity.

Hey Martin! I've been reading this thread recently and I appreciate all sides. I haven't been on this site for a long time. I think the last time I was enjoying it was when GREENZAP was doing it's hustle.

I gotta get some more time on this peoplestring thingy. I have read a good deal and I think I get it all with some outside experiences that helps me understand what the advertisers are trying to do and the hustle everyone would be involved in.

The advertisers want a target market and are pulling back from traditional print media etc. due to costs. I think they are hoping to get open minded people who "want" to know about offers, deals and opportunities etc. So it makes sense that they are willing to kick back a few coins for participation. Makes sense, particularly if a sale is generated.

The idea of recruiting others is always a skeptical angle and reminds me of the GREENZAP thingy but I think I am getting the PeopleString goal.

They appear to me to be using a pretty neat email service which is certainly a benefit. I like it and have a Bigstring email account. So when I found peoplestring I did some poking around.

So they are using the email thingy to be a perk while creating a "community" for advertisers to approach in a warmer or less aggressive "junk mail" delivery mechanism. This social network thing is a proven success so they appear to be balancing the community building with the features and bennies at an "opt in" expense to the users....which is the acceptance of agreeable junk mail.

In exchange you get a "spiff" for gleaning over the information or offers. Okay...I get that and it is reasonable. The advertisers like the idea od a "community" because it acts as an extended pool of "buzz agents". If you or I do respond to a product offer and we like the results, it is expected that the experience will be discussed within the social network or "string" and others will check it out. The "viral" nature of this buzz is exactly what I think this PS is all about.

But I am interested to know what happens to all your information and survey data, cookies tracking and the data compiled from your Internet usage and string of people? That's where the gold is for those operating the site and is what the advertisers desire.

If this is a program you can stop, that's a good thing, but if it is a pipeline to crush you with ongoing junk mail years later....not a good thing.

Nickle diming an income stream is more reality based then the hyped up get rich schemes and I can see where the slow and steady growth of something like PS "could" ultimately work.

What I don't like is the inability to experience the site on a trial basis to see if you like the layout, or to see if it is chunky.

If the email features are any indication of the creativity and capability of those pulling the "strings" on this program, then I like it.

The other thing I notice is that there is a real focus on the sale of BLACK GRAPE drink, which certainly appears to be one of those MLM thingys.

I'm not into being stalked with email ads, surveys and bullshit but I am a guy that likes to be in on new products and services that interst me and I am sure you are as well. So this site appears to be in the gray area of what we typical want & don't want when it comes to solicitations and social networking.

Who knows...give me some feedback...your all pretty smart cats!

Yours Truly,

Mr. Peckerhead :)
