Agloco Join or no join?

After reading on several websites, my initial thrust of joining Agloco has collapsed.

One of the many factors was John Chow’s description and Angel’s point of view of Agloco. This brings back memories from when Alladvantage was still around.

I remember back in those days, I did get a few cheques from them, simply for surfing the web. A friend of mine talked me into joining alladvantage and used him as the referrer. To a high schooler, 50 or so USD for two to three months would be quite a lot, especially when all I did was turn the AllAdvantage bar on and browse around, or chat on IRC. Back then, Microsoft Comic Chat was still active so it was pretty fun, but dealt a great blow to my system resources. For those of you who have no idea what MS Comic Chat is, it is an IRC client, with users’s words typed into dialog bubble of a user specified comic character. Here is a wiki page on it.

But then I stopped after half a year. It seems the electricity bill that I was using to browse just for the view bar was actually costing me more then the money coming in. Since I usually can’t get people to join affiliate programs like these I was stuck to making all the hours on my own.

So, after remembering this experience, I’d rather spend more time building up this website rather then installing a tool bar and hope for the little money that some big company can spare easily.

An Extra note, I doubt that view bar is designed for Linux anyways.
