What is RSS and what makes it so great?

noreply@blogger.com (musashi4) — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 20:35:00 +0000

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication.

RSS is the format for distributing news and other web content. When you put content into RSS and send that content to other people or websites, it's called a feed.

Feeds are very powerful. They attract the interest of the search engines and they reach new audiences.

Every blog has a feed. Most of the new social media sites are using RSS Feeds to distribute their content. Like Twitter runs on RSS feeds, also Facebook and MySpace use feeds.

You can add feeds to your news and tap in to the power of the social web. A feed will increase the reach and visibility of your news content.

What do RSS feeds do?
RSS feeds help keep your audience constantly updated.

They allow people to see your content without having to actually go to the website. Now that may sound like a bad idea, but in today's fast-paced world, anything that saves us time and frustration is valued. How many websites have you intended to go back to and then forgotten about them? Even those we bookmark don't get visited, cause we quickly forget about them.

With RSS feeds, once someone subscribes the content, the content comes directly to them.

Here are some examples:

Let's say you update your website with product news regularly. If a visitor doesn't come back to your site and see all those updates, he or she won't know about them. But with a feed they'll automatically get the content updates. They may not purchase immediately, but at least they'll see each update. When they do decide that they want to buy, they will come to your site.

For a software company, tech articles or support updates get posted on the site. Unless the users remember to visit the site regularly, they could miss important data. Feed it to them and they get it every time.

News is perfect content for a feed. The Internet is now the number one choice for news in the 18 - 54 year old age group. And since Google changed the way they display web search results to what they call Universal Search, news content is now seen on the main Google web search pages. Studies show that images and news are in fact the most clicked content on a web search page now.

There are so many sources of news that your visitors, and the journalists who cover your industry, won't come to your site every day. But if you offer an RSS feed of your news it pops right into their RSS reader.

If the headline catches their attention, chances are they'll click through and read the article.

* Finally, after all this you still had to figure out how to get traffic to your website...

The Truth About Auto Cash System

noreply@blogger.com (musashi4) — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 13:19:00 +0000

Auto Cash System... real opportunity or complete scam? ( just a review on this business)

First and foremost let me tell you that the amount of money making systems out there that are complete scams is ridiculous and quite simply discusses me, that is why I have set out to see if there are any actual programs that are legit opportunities and will help the average person make money online.

I began buying program after program just to find myself disappointed time and time again. I went through over 30 different money making systems before I finally found one that actually helped me earn an extra income online.
http://musashi4.autocash09.hop.clickbank.net/

On the home page of Auto Cash System the author Lanty Paul claims that he has reached financial success using the secret techniques he discusses in his system. He then goes on to say that he helped four of his family members grow a successful online income within just a few months and that within the first year these four family members were making more money online then at their current full time jobs.

I heard these ridiculous kinds of claims time and time again on just about every sales page for every money making system out there, so needless to say at first I thought it was a bunch of B.S

However, after purchasing Auto Cash System I quickly realized that it was nothing like all these other worthless products that I wasted hundreds of dollars on in the past. The member’s area was full with literature, audio lessons and added bonuses such as various different programs. He also includes a library full of resell rights products to help you make some extra money. All of this was well worth the measly $50!
http://musashi4.autocash09.hop.clickbank.net/

After going through everything in the members area I decided to put some of Lanty’s techniques to use and see if they actually work.

His secret techniques worked better then I had expected. Auto Cash System actually had me making money online within 48 hrs. After just a week of applying Lanty’s methods on the internet I had my first $100 day. I couldn't believe it.

Finally a system that holds up to the claims it makes and truly does help the average person make money online. Rather you are just getting started or you have been making money online for years and just want to increase your income, Auto Cash System is a definite must have product.

I hope you enjoy this system as much as I did and I guarantee you will...

Without a Job... Is the Internet an Alternative?

noreply@blogger.com (musashi4) — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 20:52:00 +0000

http://musashi4.maverick66.hop.clickbank.net/-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

The question has come into everyone's mind at one point or another."How do I make money fast?" Luckily for everyone who has ever had that question come to mind there is an answer! There are several ways to make money quickly online, now we will venture through the online category.

3 websites to make money online.
1. Associated Content.2. Cash Crate.3. Forum booster.

Let's begin with associated content. Associated content should be the number one stop for those people who frequently ask themselves, how I could make money fast. Associated Content requires you to write content, which in other words for those who aren't familiar with the online language, content means articles.
Associated Content requires that you write articles for them, they will pay you anywhere from $3 to $40 for your content.
Most of the time however the bids that they place on your content are for much less than $10. However, this is still a great way to make money online if you can type several articles per day. You may be surprised to see how easy it has become to earn a part time income through writing for Associated Content.

The next site that we will talk about is Cash Crate. Cash Crate is a site that pays you to take surveys. They may pay anywhere from a dollar to possibly a hundred dollars, just for you to take a survey.
Doesn't sound too bad now does it? The reason they pay you to complete surveys is that companies are willing to shell out loads of cash for in-depth information from their consumers to find out exactly what they word on the street is about their product or services.
They even have a daily survey on the homepage that is guaranteed to make you some extra income; the guaranteed survey on the homepage pays $0.80. It may not seem like much but do the math, over a 30 day time period. That is almost $30 extra dollars just for taking surveys.
Are you still asking yourself that question, how do I make money fast? Well if writing tons of articles and taking surveys doesn't really sound like your cup of tea, there is always the alternative of Forum Booster.

Forum Booster is a website that pays you $0.10 for each post you make on a forum. This is great for those of us that would be searching and posting on forums either way, why not get paid for it? If you can post sixty posts in 1 hour, you can make $6, which is not that bad for earning money online.
It may not be minimum wage, but you have the advantage of being in the comfort of your own home. You can be in your pajamas sipping coffee while working on posting on these forums. Each post should be a minimum of 12 words, which is not difficult to do at all.
Overall there are tons of ways to make money quickly online but these are just the tried and true and the best of the best.-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

George Carlin-A Comic Genious Who Had A Way With Words

noreply@blogger.com (musashi4) — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 04:14:00 +0000

George Dennis Patrick Carlin (May 12, 1937 - June 22, 2008) born in Manhattan, New York City, New York. Probably one of the funniest comedians of all time, passed away because of a heart failure. Comedy Central placed Carlin second on a list of the 10 greatest stand-up comedians of all time.

George Carlin had a remarkably long and productive comic career, some 50-odd years or so, and his last HBO special, "It's Bad for Ya", was just broadcast in March, and like all others, was a massive hit.

His humor almost always a little subversive, aimed at puncturing hypocrisy, feelgoodism, he hated religion(did a great take on the Ten Commandments), also self help movements, shopping malls, fast food, trendy child rearing practices, feminisism, drugs, global warming...etc...etc...

I will surely miss his prancing on the stage with his microphone in hand, his facial expressions accompanied with timely expletive language(you know, like: it's just f-cki-g bullsh-t).

Tiger... Out Of The Woods?

noreply@blogger.com (musashi4) — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 09:36:00 +0000

Tiger Woods, (shown here with his first child, daughter: Sam Alexis Woods)the world's numero uno golf player for 500+ weeks in a row now, will be out for the rest of this 2008 season and will be undergoing surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament (acl) in his left knee. It'll take at least six to eight months to recoup after surgery.

Coming off from an incredible feat of winning the 2008 U.S Open (he has revealed that he has been playing for at least 10 months with a torn ligament in his left knee, and that he suffered a double stress fracture in his left leg two weeks before the U.S. Open), wow! and ouch!!!

An amazing man at only 32 years of age, who has racked up 65 victories, 14 professional majors (Jack Nicklaus has 18 majors), ranks 3rd all-time on the PGA tour.

Tiger is an enormous and awesome attraction to the game of golf and an incredible athlete in sports in itself that I don't think I'll be watching too much of the game now on tv, I mean, even tho I myself, have never played the game, I like watching it when he's playing, and now if I were to watch it, it'll be like watching the movie "Halloween" without the intensity of Michael Meyers in it!

Hope all of you will be rooting for him to have a successful surgery and a great recovery. Will be waiting for the...eyes of the tiger.....!!!

Nathan Sawaya--Now I Lay My Brick To Sleep......

noreply@blogger.com (musashi4) — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 22:25:00 +0000

Nathan Sawaya (born: July 10, 1973- ) in Colville, Washington and raised in Veneta, Oregon, is not your typical artist, who not only sculptures custom three-dimentional models and large-scale mosaics of everyday like items, but uses standard Lego toy bricks of various colors to accomplish his ingenious, intrinsic art formations.

When he was just 5 years old, he received his first Lego set for Christmas, and he stopped everything else and started building things with his newfound joy. Nathan immediately began creating a 36 square foot Lego city in his parent's living room, where it remained untill he left home. The Lego city was one of the ways he explored his creativity as a child and kept adding on pieces to it up until he left for college.

He came into national prominence in 2004, when he won a nationwide search for a professional Lego Master Model Builder. Nathan worked for the Lego company for 6 months and eventually branched off and opened his own art studio in New York, whereby recognized officially by The Lego Group, as a: Lego Certified Professional.

Today, his one-of-a-kind-in-the-world art creations are commisioned by companies, individuals, museums and galleries.

His works take many different forms, such as: a 53-foot movie billboard that required a half

million bricks, a life-size Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton, a 7-foot replica of the Brooklyn Bridge, a large black and white self-portrait, a functional air conditioner and computer to name a few.

Sawaya's important message is - do what makes you happy and "follow your dreams".

Tim Russert-King of Interviewers

noreply@blogger.com (musashi4) — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 22:38:00 +0000

Tim Russert (born: May 7, 2008-died: June 13,2008) collapsed and died yesterday at the NBC studios while working on voiceovers for a Meet The Press show that was shot earlier in the morning.

A highly regarded journalist among his peers and audience, known for his indebt interviews and well investigated reports on the many people that he came in contact with, especially of political importance, died unexpectedly of a heart attack.

I myself, did not watch his shows, but I have heard of him. By listening to the radio or watching the news on tv about this journalist, one can only feel the legacy of this man who has interviewed countless of people with the utmost of fairness and judgement, has left many of his colleagues bewildered and shocked.

My heart goes out to his family, including his wife Maureen and his son Luke who just graduated from Boston College. They all had just returned from a European vacation, celebrating Luke's graduating from school.
