My experiment on rf123 doesn’t really seem to have worked.  The ones I donated to get downloaded several times, but I was hoping for some action on some of the similar ones.  And BigStockPhoto didn’t do anything in  February, like I had hoped it would after it’s good start.

When it comes right down to it, I had fun doing it and what ever money I make is a nice extra. Although that doesn’t mean I don’t plan to keep working at it and setting some goals although my 10/week is already shot.
