A freelance blog creator.

This blog was created by a Canadian whom I consider as just an online acquaintance.

But I was impressed by his communication and paid him his fees to create this blog. I was a sub zero in that time in blog creation. All I could do was to make a blog post that too splashed with grammar mistakes.

But over these past several months, I think I have become sort of sort of an expert in creating a blog with blogger.com

Yesterday, my friend's wife came to my house seeking my help to create a blog for her. You know what happened, I created it in less than 3 minutes. Don't you think I can launch myself a freelance blog creator and charge a small sum like my Canadian contact?

But no, this knowledge is given to me by God and I shall forever offer my skill free of charge.
I can also now give serious coaching in blog promotion and blog tools.

Thank you God!

The success story of Simmons, Jannace & Stagg.

Behind the success of simmons jannace & stagg, I don’t find any woman but I could attribute several other factors such as a set of high legal ethics, understanding the needs of the clients, employing alternative dispute resolution techniques and earning a peer review rating by Martindale-Hubbell.

If you are new to Martindale-Hubbell, the Martindale Directory and Hubbell's Legal Directory’s purpose was "to furnish to lawyers, bankers, wholesale merchants, manufacturers, real estate agents, and all others the address of one reliable law firm, one reliable bank, and one reliable real estate office in every city in the United States.

Also one more important factor for their reputation, this firm provides guidance in choosing a business form and has organized corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, and other legal entities throughout the U.S., as well as negotiated and prepared joint venture agreements and buy/sell agreements.

No wonder several fortune 500 companies including Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc are their clients.

Social network aggregator.

Keeping up-to-date with all of your friends' activities across various parts of the social web can be a pain and that's where Spokeo hopes to make life a little easier. Started by four recent Stanford graduates, the service is best described as a social network aggregator which presents each user with an updated view of all of their friends' activities on sites such as MySpace, Digg, Flickr and YouTube. In fact Spokeo has support for over 20 of the most popular social networks, as well any site that provides an RSS feed.

To begin using the service, a user submits their user name or profile URL for each social network that they belong to, from which Spokeo then imports any 'friends' associated with each network, ready to track updated content. You can also manually add additional people you wish to track, by simply adding each of their profile URLs or blog RSS feeds. However, Spokeo currently only syndicates publicly available content, meaning that it won't work on sites where a friend's profile or content is set to private or has restricted access.

Spokeo also has a feature called "Recommend". When you recommend a post or any other content syndicated on Spokeo, all of your friends who are also members of the site will immediately see it on their Spokeo page. This way, content syndicated on Spokeo can spread beyond the first degree of friendship — giving the site its own social dynamic.

Do you require an internet booster?

Frankly I don't know. I don't find my system to be slower.

I happen to read an article at http://www.genuineanswers.com on the subject.

It is essential that the system that we use is updated and fast - thus the need to install an internet speed booster. This service claims to keep “your system healthy and responsive”.

The internet speed booster is actually a set of 3 functions;
it prevents the user from getting disconnected by the Internet Service Provider (ISP);
allows to exercise full control over the Ping interval host and sound.

It also plays a role in monitoring the method by which the Windows PC sends and receives data across the internet to prevent the information from getting lost. The function Free Memory utility helps to free the RAM or the physical memory on the system.

This can be done by selecting a particular amount of free memory and then pressing the “optimize” key. In fact it can also be programmed to automatically “optimize” RAM when it goes beyond a
particular target level.

However, it should be noted that original internet speed cannot be changed without the up gradation of the hardware; Internet Speed Booster can only help in increasing the speed by making the best use of the existing network settings and windows modem.

I thank the source for this article.

These useful tips are given by Teleflora, a family-owned floral company with almost 35 years of experience in the flower industry.

Cost Per Term Advertising.

A google adword prompted me to look up on John Chow who promises to show how to make money from my blog without charging a fee.

But when I visited his blog, I got diverted to a term called ‘CPT’ meaning Cost Per Term advertising.

He was referring to a website named Advolcano which says “The CPT model allows advertisers to purchase ads at a fixed rate for a set amount of time. In essence, the CPT model works much like classified ads, whereas the publication, rate, and ad lifetime are all predetermined”.

But John Chow made it easier to understand; “The easiest explanation of cost per term are those Text Link Ads links listed under the Featured Sites section on the right sidebar. Advertisers pay a flat monthly fee to have those links listed there. It doesn’t matter what the blog traffic level is during the month or how many clicks the links received, the advertiser pays one price”.

Oh sure, I am aware of this strategy but never felt the need to advertise(as if I have something to advertise).(smile)

However, I enjoyed John’s humor in this sentence, “From a startup standpoint, a CPT network like AdVolcano is the easiest to start because you don’t need a huge technology infrastructure - only God and Google knows how much was spent on their fraud detection software”.

I saw also noticed ‘John Chow’ as one of the publisher in advolcano’s home page.

Myspace bulletins-are they worth it?

Getting the word out to as many people as possible about a website's product or service is the one and only goal of every netizen.

People search for new ways to propagate or try out some of the time tested methods of internet advertising like classifieds, traffic exchange, email campaign and signature advertising.

My sister is a member of several forums but very active in Digital Point forum. There she reads plenty of messages through which myspace members offer their services of sending out a news bulletin to thousands of their network members.

For example, if you engage one of such person's service, he promises to send out a few sentences containing about your website or blog to his huge network. The charges are of course easily affordable, but I am wondering whether it will be effective. Will his network of friends really read his online bulletin?

Any suggestion?

Akshaya Thrithi- a festival in India.

This festival is somewhat special in India mostly welcome by women and dreaded by men.

Yes, there is a belief among Indians that if one buys some precious metal for however insignificant value on this day, then they are likely to buy gold or silver throughout the year.

Some belief!

Cashing in on this, precious metals merchants and nationalized bank gear themselves up fully and entice the public with offers of discount, installment purchase and other added gifts.

Most of the famous gold shops will witness a queue in front of them to buy gold as coins or as ornaments. The craze will go on till late in the evening and the next day will be reserved for showing around their proud purchases.

I think, Monex too can seize this opportunity and set up a store here. When the entire American people can trust them as honest and dependable, why not we?

I think women of India are thinking beyond profits to better secured investments.

What exactly is video conferencing?

We all come across the word 'Video Conferencing' everyday in our emails, news papers and offline marketing brochures goading us upgrade our PC, laptop and mobile phones.

So far I have been neglecting to learn more about it but today I decided to enrich my my knowledge in this field.

A video conference (also known as a video teleconference) is a set of interactive telecommunication technologies which allow two or more locations to interact via two-way video and audio transmissions simultaneously. It has also been called visual collaboration and is a type of groupware.

The core technology used in a video teleconference (VTC) system is digital compression of audio and video streams in real time. The hardware or software that performs compression is called a codec (coder/decoder).

Required components:
* Video input: video camera or webcam
* Video output: computer monitor , television or projector
* Audio input: microphones
* Audio output: usually loudspeakers associated with the display device or telephone
* Data transfer: analog or digital telephone network, LAN or Internet

Application:
This technology is really useful in education, medicine and of business apart from enriching the social contacts.

Math animations.

This is one subject I know only a few people will be interested in.

"The American Mathematical Society (AMS) announced that a collaboration between a French mathematician and a Belgian artist has resulted in math animations that herald new era in visualization".

The AMS is even more enthusiast and says that these graphic animations "point to a new era for the use of computer graphics in communicating and carrying out mathematical research."
Let's start with a short excerpt of this AMS news release.

The two collaborators are Etienne Ghys, a mathematician at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Lyon, France, and Jos Leys, a Belgian graphic artist and engineer with strong mathematical interests. They have written an online animated exposition of an important new theorem Ghys has proved in dynamical systems theory.

Tips for destination Hawaii.

I just returned from a vacation to Hawaii and I happy to share with you my travel experience.

Of the many attractions in Hawaii, I liked the Big Island very much.

Kona is rich as both a commercial and historical center known for the only commercially produced coffee in the U.S., macadamia nuts, the world-famous Ironman race, Mokuaikaua Church, and Hulihee Palace. Don't miss out on other natural attractions such as the summit of Mauna Kea, the island's tallest volcano, Magic Sands beach or Kamakahonu Beach.

I stayed with Gebhart’s Hawaii Vacation Rentals, located just south of Kailua-Kona on the Big Island.


I opted for their 3 bedroom 4 bath vacation rentals home. It was quite huge (3,000 square feet) in the heart of Hawaii's Gold Coast surrounded with the sunshine, beaches, resorts, and other attractions.

It was a luxurious two level private home that is equipped with full kitchens on levels, expansive lanais on both levels, two master suites and a location so close to the ocean that you can frequently feel the spray from the ocean as waves break against the coastline. A small wading pool next to the sea wall is a perfect place to watch the famous Hawaiian sunsets.

If you are contemplating your next vacation to Hawaii, please take a reference letter from me to Gebhart Properties; they will be pleased to offer you the finest accommodations in one the world's most coveted vacation spots.

Gmail users loosing all their emails and contacts.

"Found my account clean..nothing in Inbox, contacts ,sent mail..How can all these information residing in different folders disappear?"

This appeared in one of the google groups.

As it turns out, the cause is most likely an insecure system, that was attacked either through a trojan horse or a cross-site scripting attack. Suspicions are that it is related to an error in Firefox 2.0 (not updated to 2.0.0.1) that can be read about at http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2006-6507 . This error states "Mozilla Firefox 2.0 before 2.0.0.1 allows remote attackers to bypass Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) protection via vectors related to a Function.prototype regression error."

Later discussions has lead to requests for a backup routine in gmail, and that google should take responsibility for backing up these user's email. The thing is, users already have a way of backing up the emails, as gmail permits POP access to the account.

Weeding the SCAM away.

"I invite and encourage webmasters, SEOs and internet marketers to come to the site and share there wisdom - simply by posting articles, tutorials etc. With your help, we can root out the 'evil' and expose the 'good' when it comes to having success online." says June Beezy, the founder of WDclub.com

Personally I feel this is an effort that requires plenty of active participation from professional as well as veteran internet marketers and SEO specialists.

According to WDclub, people can find the truth by voting on what online marketing information or opportunity really works.

Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) January 2, 2007 -- According to WDclub, when it comes to internet marketing or making money online, folks are more likely to run into a scam than a real opportunity. The company says there is a way to separate the two for good.

WDclub.com has implemented a new platform that enables everyday people to post, vote and comment on any online marketing information - information that brought them results or lack thereof.

Once the piece of information is posted, it becomes live almost instantly. The entire WDclub community has a chance to review the information and vote and comment on it. At WDclub, the people decide if the information is legit or not, not the seller.

Once enough people vote on it, it will appear on the top for everyone to see and benefit from.

Originally, the site offered just dropshipping resources. But a change was needed when subscribers started to request other relevant information such as email marketing, affiliate marketing, eBay selling etc.

WDclub's "democratic" platform seems quite promising. It is a lot different from normal review sites as the editor is the individual user thus giving the site more value and power.
