Whatever happened to Mz: I am currently homeless and have been since December 31st. So I haven't been posting much. I am trying to declare bankruptcy and trying to figure out some means to support myself that won't help keep me sick. It has long been my goal to develop an online income but that never panned out. Working full time in an industrial park and battling my health issues left too little time, energy and mental focus for working that out on the side. Plus it appears to me that no one takes my current sites seriously. I have been repeatedly told by people on HN that they "aren't commercial" and cannot be monetized.
I do have a posterous account. I am not aware of any means to monetize a posterous site. I would like to ultimately figure out a means to make money online. I am seriously considering not bothering to back up my current sites and trying to make a fresh start online. The CF community mostly is not interested in knowing what I did and basically thinks I am an egomaniac, charlatan and snake oil salesman. I don't mind helping people but it has helped very few people, left me feeling abused and is not making money. Without an audience, I do not know what to write about. Without new content going up, there is nothing to attract traffic. I do not know how to overcome that issue given the open hostility with which the CF community has long treated me. Now that I am homeless, I can no longer afford my self sacrificing idealism. I need to sort out my financial problems. I wish it weren't so. But I just cannot do this anymore.
Thanks for the info. I will follow up on it and see if I can get some new project(s) launched and maybe even figure out how to make money online.
