Earn money by writing online

It’s not like writing for a book, or publication, a newspaper or magazine but blogging is prevalent on the Web because we love sharing, reading and hearing about new experiences. And unlike freelance writing you don’t answer to a client’s demand or write to adhere to a blog’s direction or scope. Still, it feels good to be paid to write articles, and you don’t have to manage a blog to actually make money out of your writing. I would understand how difficult it is to write a convincing piece on something they don’t really fancy or have enough knowledge or understanding about.

Facebook knows who your friends are, even better than you do? The social media giant uses a mix of complex science and mathematics to narrow down on your friends list. Have you ever thought how Facebook exactly predicts your friends, sometimes even those whom you have long forgotten. Last week, a Redditor named easyjet posted a thread on Reddit.
