How To Change The Name For Personal/Premier PayPal Account
For some reasons, you may want to change your name for your personal or premier PayPal account. One of the problems most people may face is the arrangement of "first name" and "last name".
The arrangement of "first name" and "last name" in different countries might be different. For example in Malaysia, banks put an account holder as "first name" "last name". But in PayPal, the account payee name is in this order "last name" "first name".
After you have registered a PayPal account, you are not allowed to change the account name. In order to change the account name, you will need to make a request to PayPal and at the same time you need to show proves, that the name you want to change to is actually your name.
Nestle (4707) To Replace Parkson (5657) in FBM KLCI
According to The Star, FTSE Group, the index company, and Bursa Malaysia Bhd announced that Nestle (M) Bhd - Nestle (4704) would replace Parkson Holdings Bhd - Parkson (5657) in the 30-counter strong FTSE Bursa Malaysia KL Composite Index.
The replacement will take effect on on Monday, 21 December 2009. The reason why the replacement is made is not mentioned either in the article or the FTSE Group's announcement.
I think they replace Nestle with Parkson in FBM KLCI is because of the Nestle's stock price is much less fluctuate than the Parkson one. In this case, the FBM KLCI will look much more stable and also to prevent speculation on the index.

Getting Paid For My Second Sponsored Review
This is my second time write a review for a website and getting paid in one of my technical blogs. Well, I cannot disclose the link of the post I have written at this blog because one of the terms is "do not include a sponsored disclosure within the post".
I registered SponsoredReviews.com quite a long time ago and did not actively look for advertisers. Very lucky, I got the two offers from two different advertisers although my blog's traffic is not high. Maybe the theme of my blog looks good to them.
For the last review (and also for the first review), the offer was $15 and I will get $9.65 in my PayPal account and the rest go to SponsoredReviews.com. SponsoredReviews.com takes 35% from the amount paid by advertiser as the transaction fees.
Actually I think the income from writing a sponsored review is quite good if you have a good blog with high traffic. You will get paid from what you have written (quick money!) and at the same time, you add more content to your blog as well to generate more traffic.
I will be more aggressive to look for advertisers to bid for review opportunities when my blogs grow bigger (more pages cached in search engines) and have more traffic. Because the higher traffics the website you have, you will more likely to bid for more expensive opportunities.
If you have a great blog and can write good English, maybe you want to try to make more money by writing reviews.
