It seems that infolinks really wants to expand their business and for the purpose they are luring more publishers to join them along with their existing publishers with offering several incentives.

Some times ago they lowered their minimum payout to $50 from $100 for all form of payments, they offered their publishers with Payoneer prepaid card.

Now they have introduced WordPress plugin for their publishers, which will make it easier to integrate infolinks code in WordPress powered blog. WordPress is the most popular CMS used today by bloggers.  However even today it is not hard to implement their ad code but this will make it a lot easier for the persons who are not accustomed to HTML or PHP and find it hard to edit codes.

This plugin works as any other WP plugin, just upload, activate and configure and that’s all.

If you are infolinks publisher, you can download this plugin from here and befit from this new initiative.

Google Twitter Follow Finder

Google Labs is where Google hides innovations not considered ready for prime time. Google Follow Finder is one such service. It analyzes public social graph information (following and follower lists) on Twitter to find people you might want to follow.

Just enter the twitter user name of a twitterer/tweep you admire and Google will give a list of tweeps you might like, as well as a list of people with followers similar to yours.

Google says:

“The lists in Google Follow Finder are generated using public following and follower lists on Twitter. For example, if you follow CNN and the New York Times on Twitter, and most people who follow CNN and the New York Times also tend to follow TIME, we’ll suggest TIME as a Tweep you might like.’ The list of  Tweeps with similar followers’ is simply a list of accounts with similar follower lists to yours.

The government has confirmed it is pushing for an online real-name registration system. The issue has sparked fierce debate in China since it was first raised several years ago.
