Lady Laila started blogging on Saturday, April 26, 2003; little did she realize what she was getting into.
Lady Laila joined blogshare on 24th Jul 2004. Little did she know where she was going to be.
September 30, 2004, Lady Laila's blog was nominated as Philippine Blog entry into the Annual Philippine Blog Awards and the blog made it to the Semi-Finals.
The first feel of the blog, was like standing on the edge of an abyss; you know the feeling one gets when one is about to loose one’s balance? You see everything that is happening to her, you get to see how her mind works.
I am looking into the soul of another human, no filters no masks.
The Blog is a central part of Lady Laila’s life, and a very essential part of her daily life.
The look and feel of the blog:
- the background though essentially an yin and yang arrangement of the floral design could go easy on some of the darker colors used
- the archive links are organized easy
- all that, which has played an important part in Lady Laila’s life have been organized into the “Life’s Journey”
And hey she is doing good, making real money out of a game and using it to help real world people. Kudos to her.
An very interesting use of “THE GAME”.

blogshares frenzy
this one is a review. of a nice, cool and an exciting place on the net.an addictive stockmarket game on the net.
this is just like the real commodities market. only difference is that the commodity traded in are blogs.
i got on to this by accident, when i was trying to get traffic moving on to my blog.
last few days have been crazy. i have stopped blogging and just working on increasing my blog $'s.
concept is simple.
blogshares is a place where you trade in blogs. this is a fantasy stock market , where on registeration you are given 500 blog $'s. you play with this $ 500 ; invest in blog shares ,buy,sell and increase your blog wealth, stuff like in the regular stock market.
if you have have a blog of your own, then you can claim ownership and start trading. this is were the difference comes in, this is like having your own company, you can issue shares, bonds and increase your company's market valuation.
considering that this is not real money , it still gives you a real kick is you pituitary glands .
there are actual blogshare trillion'ers. nice people they are(i mean most of the interaction i have had and based on what i have observed), if some one likes you, they might even gift you a couple of billion blog $'s.
the few things which i have figured out so far are
a) there is something called the shares, these are shares in a blog
b) there are something called as industry, an industry is basically a classification of the blog
ie. a blog on india would be part of an industry called india. or a blog on humour would be part of an industry called as humour( were your surprised??)
c) there is something called the idea, i am still grappling with the idea(!) here. i think an idea is basically a blog entry which a person makes into the blog. investing in ideas seem to be the way to add wealth to yourself. the price moves up and down like in a real stock market, more rare an idea, more valuable it is, as the coolkats of the blog world want to buy and collect rare ideas.. more detailed stuff on this is put on the blogshares help page.
d) there is something called as an artefact which i have still not checked out nor have i figured out what this is yet, why? why because i dont have the moola,( yet!)
e) your interaction on blogshares (like voting a blog into a specific industry based on the content, earns you karma points(?) and chips
f) chips are the currency of the blogmarket. one correct vote give you 1 chip and i belive the going rate of a chip is about $25M (and M is million what else?)
i am just a couple of days into this, i am still wonderstruck just thinking of the mathematical/ computer model which is running in the background.
mind blogging(!) stuff.
there are a set of people working in the background, working on the maths of how the markets would move in the real world. checking out the forums i see that there is lot of interaction on evolving the game further.
just get to blogshares.com and get hooked yourself's.
