 Blogging What Exactly is Blogging? by Roberto Beiro. Nowadays, there are so many new terms and phrases in can be quite confusing. This is especially the case on the Web. Both the young and old have trouble keeping up with the new meanings our high-tech world has to offer.
If, back in the 80's, I'd have told you that I was checking my email on my mobile, you'd have probably stared at me blankly. Today, it is something that we take for granted.
Radio and television were the the only ways to really express your opinion to large groups of people. Not any more. Now you can talk to million through the new medium of blogging over the internet. What would you like to say? |

 Engineering Beginners Guide to Joomla by David Tanguay. If you have been contemplating whether a Joomla-based website is right for you, you may want to check out Joomla’s “Absolute Beginner’s Guide to Joomla.” Much of the information found in the rest of this post will be condensed from this informative web page, so if you desire more in depth knowledge, visit Joomla’s site.
One nice feature that Joomla allows you to do is take a “test drive” with their system. They let you go to a demonstration site, sign in as a backend Administrator, and change some options to see what an end product will look like. This feature helps you to get familiar with the content management system so that you can test out whether it is something that would be right for the needs of your own web site.
Joomla recommends something that you should do no matter what system you use to manage your website, and that is to plan in advance. You will want to look at the big picture. Joomla poses 4 questions that may help you to do this: |

 Want Buyers? Money Making Strategy: Make It Better! by Remy Jirek. Making money can be as simple as making it better. Better product, better marketing and a better message.
First you take a product that sells well. Then you make it better. If you are good at this, you will be able to locate products that not only sell well, but are poorly made, poorly marketed and have a so-so message.
Once you find one of these, you test the product to make sure that you can sell it and still make money. How? You find a product that pays an affiliate commission. You then use Pay Per Click advertising such as Google Adwords to generate traffic to the sales page.
Once you prove that you can sell the product at a profit (your sales exceed the cost of the Adwords fees) you are ready to make it better. |

 eCommerce Business Eliminating Downtime For Your E-Commerce Store. by Edward Cole. Running an e-commerce business isn't just about keeping your website up and running. Customers rely on your ability to serve them via telephone, fax, email, or other means, and it requires all of your systems to be working to be able to fulfill customer requests. Often, a single failure in your infrastructure can disable your ability to serve clients, ship orders, answer calls, and process transactions.
The true cost of downtime can be significant, and includes many things other than just lost revenue from lost orders. Increased (and expensive) customer service time, refunded and cancelled orders, loss of customer loyalty, and opportunity loss associated with handling the outage itself can be tremendously expensive. |

 Media Pirate Media Piracy and Law Enforcement By Josh Stone. Once upon a time, music played for free on the radio. And you could record a cassette if you wanted to, and you could listen to it as many times as you wanted to, and nobody thought you were a pirate if you shared it with your friends. In fact, this was seen as a way for new bands to break into the market; quite frequently receiving a mix tape would be motivation to buy the album of the band whose song was included.
What little concern there was over music piracy was restricted to "bootleg" tapes made at concerts. Even one of the most outspokenly liberal musicians ever, Frank Zappa, vented in vain at bootleg tapes of his music. He went so far as to include the tape of an interview expressing his anger with this practice at the beginning of his "As An Am" album, part of his "Beat the Boots" project. But even at its most vampiric, the bootleg recording industry was hardly able to suck off more than a single-digit percentage of profits. |
