Data Recovery in the Event of a Hard Drive Failure

Do you know what Twitter is? If you don't, you may want to google it to find out. Dell announed that Twitter has made it over 1 million dollars in the last year and a half. Sure, that's nothing for Dell, but, every little bit helps, right? 

Twitter is a social networking site, where people (or companies) who have a free Twitter account post their current location, or what they are doing at the moment. Friends, or other interested persons can then get alerts on their computers, or cell phones immediately. 

Sounds like something your teenager would like, but not your clients? Guess again. Dell uses Twitter to announce special sales, or discounts. People following can then login to get these short term discounts, and even pass it along to their friends. 

It's all part of the new Web 2.0, where marketing can certainly play. So, go Google Twitter, and see how you can take your marketing up a notch, with little or no money.

Just a quick blog to say Happy New Year to everybody who follows my ramblings. I hope 2009 finds you healthy, happy, and profitable in your business. Forget the doom and gloom that the media seems to thrive upon. If your business is down, find a way to bring it up. Adapt, adjust, do what you have to. Find a way to distance yourself from your competition during these times. Invest in your business. Find marketing that works, and use it! 

Happy New Year, and best wishes in 2009!

A scientist looking around on Google Earth discovered 7000 Hectares of forest that was previously undiscovered, in Mozambique. An expedition was quickly put together. In the first two weeks, they discovered new species of butterflies, and a snake that can kill a man with one bite. I've always known Google Earth was exceptional, but who knew it was capable of this?

 This discovery has the science community in an uproar, with the hopes that there are other parts of the World out there as yet undiscovered.

Just in case you thought the government was taking care of your tax dollars in a fiscally responsible manner, along comes this story. 

If you happen to be in the ocean (for whatever reason) and run across a floating rubber ducky, NASA would like for you to call them. It seems NASA dumped 90 of the little yellow floaters in a hole in the ice in Greenland about 3 months ago. The idea was to determine how the polar ice cap is melting. To date, they haven't gotten a single one of them back. So, they put up a $100 reward for the first person to find one. 

I'm betting with the amount of tax dollars they spent on this project, they can afford to offer more than $100. Personally, I'm keeping my rubber ducky until they up the ante more! 

To Your Success,
