Hi everyone,
I don't know if you have heard of Navizon yet, but it's a great way to earn money whilst drivng around with your GPS on. I clocked 7000 pts in 45 minutes, which is 3000 points shy of my first payments, now you guys driving all day can rack up the points!
Navizon is a wireless positioning system that works a little bit like a GPS, only that it uses Cellular Towers and Wifi access points instead of satellites. In addition to being a wireless position system, Navizon offers other features like Directions, Buddy finder, Geotags and more... the best bit is you earn money whilst using the software through the Navizon reward system. Your phone maps the location of Wifi points and Cell Towers then sends them to Navizon. They give you points for each one and 10,000 points = $20 (It sounds like a lot of points BUT they build up really quick, especially if you are mapping areas that nobody else has done yet!)
If you're interested all you need to do is register with Navizon HERE then install the software on your phone from HERE and get Navizon connected to your GPS. Every Wifi access points that you pass, every cell tower that you log will earn you money.
When you have a) registered and b) installed the software - make sure it all works ok by loading up Navizon and checking the settings:
Goto Menu>Options> and scroll left to see the GPS tab.
On the GPS tab set the following:
GPS: COM4: (ActiveDevice)
Baud Rate: 4800 (9600 on Tilts/Kaisers is best apparently)
Auto start is ticked
Output port: Off
Use Physical output port is ticked.
Then go to the Account tab. Enter the account name and password you registered with - without those nothing syncs and your points go nowhere!
Click OK and if your settings are correct you should start to see three green lights for Phone, Wifi and GPS - it can take a little while to get going. (If you don’t see Wifi, exit the program, launch Wifi, then restart the program)
Your phone should now pick up Access Points (via Wifi) and Cells (Via the Phone) at which point you should see a count appear at the bottom of the screen.
It will start with "0 APs and 0 Cells located" then as it finds a site (either AP or Cell) those numbers will increase e.g. if it found 3 Access Points and 1 Cell Tower you would see 3 APs and 1 Cell located.
Once those numbers show on the counter your phone is seeing sites and you can sync then to add points to your account (Menu > Sync)
It can take a few hours for them to update the points showing on your account so be patient (mine took around 4 hours to appear at first).
For every 10,000 points you get they paypal you $20.
If you have any questions feel free to ask me.....
Cheers |
