Non-Us Based Amazon Associates Must Perform All Services Outside The Us

An interesting addition to Amazon's terms and conditions for their Associates (announced here):
“If you are a Non-US person participating in the Program, you agree that you will perform all services under the Operating Agreement outside the United States. If, for any reason, you cannot comply with this requirement, you must notify us using this link for an exception.”

My guess is that this is something to do with tax-regulations, and is worth a few moments thought (at least) for Bloggers who use Amazon Associates links to earn money from their blogs.    

But it also made me wonder about bloggers who travel a lot:   we possibly shouldn't be doing any work inside a country where we don't have a visa that allows us to work.   I wonder if that includes writing blog posts, or perhaps even drafting but not publishing them or taking pictures for them?

How To Put Posts Into Pages In Wordpress - Without Using A Plug-In

This article shows how to set up your blog made with Wordpress so that that (it looks like) your posts are on separate web-pages, without needing to install any plugin. (For this task, the answers for Wordpress.org and Wordpress.com are so very similar that they have been combined into the one article.) Wordpress, like most blogging platforms, is basically made up of Posts, Pages and Widgets (aka gadgets). People who are building blogs often want to "put posts into pages" ie to have a page which shows a subset of their posts, based on the category.   The standard, but unsatisfactory, answer is " Sorry, that's not how Wordpress works.   Static pages are used for reference information that doesn't change often, which you don't want to be part of your regular post-feed, but which you do want users to have easy access to.
