I was watching a podcast this morning of a fellow called Scott. He happened to mention that a quarter of a million people had watched a recent post he had put up. He wasn't saying this was a remarkable number so I assumed it was nothing unusual. Now, I don't know how much this translates to in cash terms but Jamie mentioned at one stage that he receives 1.5c for every play of the music he puts on line.
So, if Scott is on a similar deal, he took in $2500 dollars from that one post and he does at least two a week. I assume it's US dollars so it's not a bad income for not doing very much.
The other regular I watch was in Copenhagen this morning making his way north through Denmark to catch a ferry to Iceland. How I would love to do that! This afternoon, I will plan a phantom trip from here in Longford to that ferry port in the North Sea. I've stopped pretending that I might do the trip one day; it's not the destination, it's the travel. Who said that? Google tells me it was Ralph Waldo Emerson but he got it wrong .. it's the planning that's the best part!
