Who introduced hubpages to you

It was a dark and stormy night. I was in the laboratory, working on my latest experiment, when I ran out of petri dishes, so I Googled and well the rest is history
I actually discovered Hubpages when I was searching for duplicate content stolen off some of my own websites. i reported teh user who stole my content (Who was subsequently banned) but as i researched this interest I grew interested.
The first time around I wrote a couple of Hubs, just for backlinks, until I came back to it earlier this year, and now I am earning around $1500 a month from it

I was taking an Internet marketing course that included regular teleconference sessions. As part of that, we students were introduced to YouTube, TubeMogul, MySpace, Facebook, Digg, Squidoo, HubPages, and a whole bunch of other sites. (Fifteen to twenty in all, if memory serves.)
Those teaching the program decided to have a "best writing" contest. You could submit just one online article, and it could be published on either HubPages or Squidoo. I entered one of my early Hubs--don't ask me which one now--and rubbed my hands with glee as I prepared to bask in the adulation of the judges.
To no one's surprise but my own, my entry made it to the top 100 or so...but was cut shortly thereafter. I was outraged! Could these fools not see they were in the presence of a superior author? Why, those they picked were mere junk compared to my exuisite literary sculpture!
Or something like that.
In the end, I never did quite complete the course. I'd been writing online full time for seven months, but the money ran out, and going back to work, hardcore 70 hour night shift work weeks driving big rigs and wrestling heavy hoses and tire chains in western Colorado's mountainous snow country was not exactly conducive to Hubbing much.
Oops. Done wrote another Hub and called it a Comment...again!

Somebody from Black Hat forum told me about this
also squidoo, like this a lot better not being biased or anything, actually no comparison, that's just me
I had started a blog (pretty bad one too) and wanted to get traffic so went looking for how to get traffic to my blog. Found a hub about this site being a good way so signed up and wrote my first article. By the time I finished it I had been fanned (a serial fanner but I didn't know about them at the time). Was so excited to have a fan I wrote a second article, by the time I finished it I had 3 fans and several comments. I had had my blog for several months with no indication that any one had read it, here I had results in a matter of an hour or 2, so I was hooked! I don't remember who I signed up under but as I am seeing a trickle of income they must be seeing some too! To that person, who ever they are, thanks for the hub that got me here!
Hard to believe, the internet!
No one introduced me to HubPages. I simply stumbled across it, found it to be a perfect platform, that works in correlation with my message.

Low traffic hubs being unfeatured - Is this now hubpage policy?
As fast as I'm trying to fix up hubs that are unfeatured, the problem isn't that there is something wrong with them, but that they are being unfeatured as a result of lack of traffic. Isn't this short sighted? Some topics just don't get that much traffic. It's not because they are badly written,Is...

Huge drop in page views over the past seven days.
I am experiencing an overall average off 66 percent less page views per day, for seven days versus a week previous and for the past two months. Such a huge drop in page views makes me think that Google has tuned up something again. I do know that I don't have the time and energy to keep...

Most of entire Hubpages site copied
Perhaps this is already widely known, but I have just found most of my hubs copied in their entirety on hubinfo.netThere are literally thousands of our hubs there, all categorized, basically a cheap replica of hubpages. Is there anything to be done about such a site?

Another site that has probably copied your hubs, this time in Spanish!
I just ran across a site, radikewl dot com, that had copied another hubber's hub that I had a comment on. The entire hub, including comments, is translated into Spanish. No author is named. That led me to do a search for my own hubs on that site, and I found many of them, also translated into...
