How Deimos uses Social Networking – EntreCard
Deimos the EntreCarder
I heard about EntreCard back in early November 2007, but it was only late December – 28 December 2007 when I decided to embrace this awesome new innovative concept and EntreCardize myself to become an EntreCarder.

Upon realizing EntreCard potential and how useful can be, I wrote a Tutorial – How to exploit Alexa Traffic Ranking using EntreCard. Somehow, my post seems to have gotten the attention of Uncle Sam and the mighty Turnip of Power as evidenced by their comments on my post.

A few days after that, I wrote up a short FAQ-ish article about EntreCard – Are you an EntreCarder yet? That article roused the interest of some local Bloggers but they failed to pick up any real interest in EntreCard. Their choice.

Deimos the EntreNewbie
At first I thought I was just going to rake in EntreCredits since all those Ads cost so much EntreCredits, might as well save up all those EntreCredits instead. However, I did try out advertising eventually and I am glad that I did that.

Back then, I dropped cards daily, read up guides about EntreCard, changed categories a couple of times before finally decided to settle down in the “Hobbies” category for good. Soon, I began to slowly climb up the ranks in the “Hobbies” category and somehow managed to reached the top Three (3), shortly after that I was ranked number Two (2) and was sandwiched in between Android’s Dungeon (number One) and Jamaipanese (number Two) back then.

Deimos the EntreVeteran
Can’t remember exactly when, probably inspired by the mighty Turnip of Power’s posts, I started a couple of lists of EntreCarders – Above Fold EntreCarders List and Almost Above Fold EntreCarders List and both of them are based off Turnip’s list.

This doing of mine might have unintentionally pissed off the mighty Turnip though I did not realize it at first, but I attempted to make amends after I know about it and hopefully, Turnip is no longer pissed.

As I continued to progress with EntreCard, one day, I discovered that I made it into the Most Popular Page, where the top 30 EntreCarders are listed.

Deimos the EntreExpert
Much more experienced with the usage of EntreCard now, I have done much things related to EntreCard – published a Survival Guide for EntreCarders, which ought to serve as a good reference for those who are seeking some EntreCard guidance.

Besides that I applied and then acquired an EntreCard Shop Seller Status Token from Phirate, which I then proceeded to sell the following three services – Deimos’s Sincere Comments (DSC), Deimos’s Redirects (DR) and Deimos EntreCard Designs (DED). Among these Three (3) I must say that DSC enjoyed the biggest success while the other Two (2) failed to attract much attention.

Deimos had some fun with EntreCard
A couple of weeks ago, something totally hilarious happened to the top row in the “Most Popular Page” and it is so hard not to notice that even Graham blogged about it. Details are chronicled here – Fun with EntreCard – EntreBall. Good times, aye.

Deimos’s Thoughts
3,000 EntreCredits is a decent amount and seeing that I have spent much EntreCredits recently, I am taking a shot at this and see how lucky I am.
