Sarugu.com - Tech Innovations for Free! » Albert http://sarugu.com Free Internet Resources Tue, 22 May 2012 06:30:45 +0000 en hourly 1 Good and Bad Social Networks for Bloggers http://sarugu.com/2012/03/01/good-and-bad-social-networks-for-bloggers/ http://sarugu.com/2012/03/01/good-and-bad-social-networks-for-bloggers/#comments Wed, 29 Feb 2012 18:35:08 +0000 Albert http://sarugu.com/?p=1306 Every blogger’s final destination is to hit highest level of traffic on their blog. Naturally as ‘social’ you are, your blog is bound to be more popular. There are no ‘bad’ social networks for bloggers but definitely there are those which are not so good. While good social networks enhance your readership others might simply be good for socializing but not for bloggers. The list shows some of the supporting social networking sites for bloggers.

1. Twitter

Twitter Profile
Twitter is the highest rated among all the bloggers. It provides very comfortable and encouraging environment for professionals and  newbie. Unlike other social networks especially Facebook where you need to first make friends, twitter publishes your post in front of new groups constantly. This brings a lot of traffic on the blog. Most bloggers have largest share of diverted traffic form twitter only. After clearing basics of twitter, your articles will fetch you lot of publicity and expand your contact book with millions of other users in virtually infinite spectrum. However, it is extremely important that you tweet only about important, and not about everything under the sun.

2. Google+

Google+ Business Page Profile
Rated parallel to twitter, Google+ shares almost equal popularity among bloggers. The concept of circles lets you define your literary boundaries and enter others. Posting your articles in front of people who have no idea of the content is an insult for yourself. Circles of Google+ first let you fence yourself and then slowly expand among the people of same liking. In addition whenever a post receives a comment, it is automatically thrown up. This is an excellent publicity fetcher when your post maintains to top people’s screen for the entire day. It is one of the most reliable and stable blogging platforms ever.
Unlike other social networks, Google+ is extremely efficient in terms of handling high amount of traffic. As a blogger you are not expected to have knowledge of HTML or CSS in order to work on Google+. Most importantly, with Google+ you get the unique option of creating your own domain name. With unlimited space and free of cost blogging, Google+ is an incredible option for all bloggers.

3. Facebook

Facebook Profile - Private Network
Facebook cannot be termed as a ‘blogger supportive” platform. Though it is the most popular website for social networking but as a blogger, do not consider it. First of all you need to have big bang friend list so that your posts reach to maximum people. After that it is not at all comfortable with every second new posts popping up, forget of getting appraised on the article. You require fighting for space and need to devote time and energy, for results.
Each day work on your fan page, bring readers and then think of diverting traffic. The task is tedious and the results do not meet up the expectations. However, the inclusion of “comments box” feature in facebook proves an advantage for the bloggers.

4. MySpace

Myspace Profile
MySpace is not a viable option for a serious blogger. It is centered more around social networking rather than blogging. The main disadvantage of MySpace is that you need to surf all kind of content when looking out for a specific blog. This discourages people to promote the link to their friends or family. So you love social networking and at the same time enjoy non professional blogging, MySpace can work for you.
To sum up, there is no hard core classification between good and bad social networks for bloggers. You can gain from every corner of internet but the amazing features of Google+ make it one of the most opted blogging platforms.

If your heart is singing, the time is now to croon, hum, swing and dance. And Serenade is the way to fix up your date; hold it, rather there are 640 of your own ways, to tune up; and make the romantic date with a capital R.

Heineken has bent the tech-world to bring out the loveliest of all the Facebook Apps. See the following fun video
and let the bubbling mood flow; create a serenade, a song full of feelings; and what you two can be together. That’s how easy it is.  And you can say all this in as many as 20 languages. Heineken’s Serenade proves again that Valentines have only one language and that’s love.

Viral video by ebuzzing

Four Clicks Away:

Just four clicks do the trick. Add this Apps and click “Who” is that special person you want as your date on this Valentine’s Day; and then click “Why” and say all you can and want to celebrate only with that partner. Make it interesting and compelling, select “What” and plan what you want to do. Want to go bowling, want to Karaoke or a pleasant dinner and a dance – decide what you think is best.

It’s all about you:

That leaves only the final step, press “Why Me,” yes, go ahead, and do a bit of convincing her or him to step out with you. If you feel that, this is the most difficult part of all, that’s where Heineken’s Serenade comes to your help. No nail biting or sweating it out to buy that classic and legacy heart-shaped greeting card: forget it – this is all about you and your date now. Use any of the 640 tunes and sing yourself straight into the heart.

Tweeters can find this new Valentine’s Day (technology?) at @Heineken, #Serenade, #SerenadeLive and #Serenade Your Date

Be sure and jive with millions of Valentines the world over, may be you can break global barriers.

The “Serenade Live” Event (Live Streaming): 9th February
London: 6pm – 3am, New York: 1pm – 10pm and Sydney: 5am – 2pm are the timings when the event of lyrics and magic will be on.

Heineken’s YouTube channel features the incredible event, the “Serenade Live” for eight melodious and wonderful hours on 9 February.

Bet you have. Laptops have taken over desktop PCs in almost everything but it’s just that they can not shout as loud as desktop speakers can.

Well, headphone is yet another option to listen to music but what about the people sitting around? You don’t want to look rude by just plugging the earplugs onto your ears and enjoying music on your own. Moreover, listening to music through headphone over long periods of time can be tiring and harmful.

So, isn’t there a middle way out there? Creative T12 is the perfect audio solution with its wireless speakers. Now no matter if you are listening music from your cell phone or headphone, they can all be easily paired with the wireless speakers to make you time more fun, pleasurable and loud.

  • High performance wireless audio: The apt-X audio codec provides top class audio performance on wireless.
  • Get all the bass in less space: The bass response varies depending upon where the speakers are placed. For example, if you place it near a wall so the presence of wall may hinder its performance, but if it is placed with some space around the units, then the speakers will bang on your ears with their full strength. Turn the top volume of the speakers, and you will be ready to roll!
  • Convenient access to controls: You can connect the speakers easily with any Bluetooth device at the touch of a button. Conveniently located headphone jack and volume control ease the use of controls.
  • Versatile connectivity options: Can also physically connect other non-Bluetooth devices via a line-in port on the Creative T12 Wireless.
  • Wireless audio for your PC made easy: Pairing these speakers with your device is just a piece of cake. The pairing has to be made when the speakers are paired with a device for the first time by holding down a button on the right speaker. Once this is done, the connection will be built automatically after any number of times the same device is in the proximity and the speakers are turned on.
  • Wireless transmitter for your iPhone/iPod: You can get access to these speakers through your iPhone/iPad. Plugin using Creative BT-D5 Bluetooth transmitter and listen to music that is download on your Apple devise.

In sum, don’t underestimate the abilities of this 180mm high speaker system, as it would sure surprise you with its banging performance.
