Normally, Dot Com Pho is held on the patio of Pho Ba Co. We have never dined inside the restaurant before because it’s always sunny in Southern California, and outdoor Pho is the best Pho. However, we got forced indoor today, not because of rain, but because of the sun. We’re in the middle of a heat wave and it’s just too damn hot to have Pho outside! Being inside had its blessing. The restaurant is extremely loud and that set up the perfect 3-way microphone test.
In addition to finding out which mic is the best for a noisy environment, this episode of Dot Com Pho features Pho menu #17, a Pho accident, Sally learning how to drive and then shopping for an angry sport car, a blinding gadget of the week, and I get paid $5,000 to wear a T-shirt!
Anyone is welcome to join us for Dot Com Pho. We had a great turn out of 21 people attending today’s edition. Follow me on Twitter to find the time and place of the next Dot Com Pho.

One of the most common complaint (or excuse) I hear from potential new bloggers is they don’t know how to install WordPress. Terms like FTP and CPanel are like a foreign language and setting up a database might as well be setting up the space shuttle for a launch. Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...

I thought you’re from Canada John? BTW, one think which I wanted to ask from you is that why are you using Infolinks text ad in this blog? Aren’t you making good money? Is it important to place text ads from Infolinks?
I’m going back to Canada next week. Inforlinks is one of the blog’s sponsor.
In time for Dot Com Pho 8/18?
Yep! Looking forward to it,
Can I get that T-shirt with my blog’s name on it? Or if I have permission can I put any other text on it?
Why would you want a t-shirt with both your blog name and IncomeEDU’s name on it?
Sounds pretty good with sony bluetooth mic but i like Sony ECM-HW2 – Bluetooth Wireless Microphone System for Video Cameras… this device mounts into the active interface shoe of a Sony Handicam camera, and enables you to capture the subject’s and the camera operator’s voices from up to 300 feet (91.44 m) away. Next time i visit pho ba co, i will try menu #17 btw, are you going back to Canada for visit?
Sounds good but I don’t have a Sony camcorder. I’m flying to Vancouver on Tuesday.
This is an interesting, way of running a profitable blog. One serious money making post, the other, dare I say, a fun post.
Very interesting

It’s good to know that they finally made you NOT to wear that “I’m JohnCho, Bitch!!” tee.
Oh!! That $5000 to charity, awesome John.
It’s OK. I got 10 people wearing “I’m with John Chow, Bitch!” shirts for Affiliate Summint. ::)
5000$ for a t-shirt, is plain awesome.
Can’t make the 8/18 one but hopefully I will be in Canada in the Fall. What does the scheduled look like then or is it too early?
In the fall, I’ll be back in sunny California.
