What does this mean?
At least one of three things may be going on:

1. Your email account may be compromised. In other words a spammer has gotten a hold of your account password and is using your account to send spam to your contacts,
2. A virus/malware has infected one of the computers you use login to check your email and is accessing your account, or
3. A spammer is using an email list that has both our addresses in it and just happened to faking an email from you

What to do?
Although #3 is the most likely (and is actually quite common) you should:

• change your email account password ASAP just to be safe
• make sure your computer has the latest updates (whether Mac, Linux, or Windows). Eg run the Windows update to make sure everything is up to date
• if you have a virus scanner, make sure it is up to date
• scan your computer for viruses/malware
• speak with whoever is in charge of the computers at your work or other place you check your email from about a possible infection

Note: no Facebook app can tell you anything about who visits or how many people visit your profile. Any app that makes these claims is fraudulent.

How to remove an app

1) log into Facebook

2) click your Account menu in the top right corner of your page

3) select Privacy Settings

4) on the bottom of the Privacy Settings page select Edit your settings

5) in the Apps to use area click the Edit Settings button

6) look for any suspicious app that you have installed recently (or any other app you don’t trust) and click the X to remove it

The biggest hurdle for bloggers is how to facilitate this outpouring of gratefulness, especially when such outpouring takes the form of small donations, while maintaining a certain level of anonymity. There are several different ways to receive small donations from your blog visitors:

PayPal

PayPal is the most flexible and universal way for visitors to send money/donations. The transaction is free if visitors send a personal payment. To send a personal payment one must:

1) log into their paypal account
2) select the send money tab
3) select the personal payment tab

(there is a credit card fee if the visitor uses a credit card:  the visitor decides whether he/she pays this fee or whether it comes out of the donation he/she is sending).

Alternatively you can make a donate button ( ) on your website. Users will be directed to login or create a paypal account. Transaction costs for payments through a donate button are 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction.

My recommendation generally is to write a short blurb about personal payments: If you would like to support my work through a donation, please feel free to send me a money gift from your paypal account to myemail@address.com.

Other payment options:

flattr – neat micro payment scheme that is starting to take off (flattr keeps 10% of what you make)

pledgie – make a fundraising goal and allow visitors to pledge (uses paypal 2.9% + $0.30 per donation)

gift cards - visitors can buy new or load top up e-gift cards (eg starbucks, amazon, chapters)

online wish list - nice visitors might buy you books (eg amazon, chapters)

Other ways to monetize blog traffic:

ads – post ads on your site; ad companies pays per click (eg adsense)

affiliates – companies pay commission for sales/customers sent to them from you (eg netflix, cafepress, amazon, etc)

sell custom merchandise  (eg cafepress, zazzle, etc)

Luckily there is third part software!
