How do people communicate before ?
Telecommunication gadgets before were made of two cans and there’s a string that connects to both.
A decade after it became wokie tokie.
Then it becomes telephone.
Telecommunication evolved to modern internet technology. I just noticed that as communication technology evolves it becomes faster as it advances.
I wonder what may happen in the future.
What do you think ?
Well blogging for me is supposed to be fun. Even if I don’t get paid I would still do this out of hobby.
For me it is something that pleases me whenever I do this. I am the boss , I am the publisher and I am the controller.
But do you know How to work with balance at the same time pleasurable ?
1. Buy an organizer.
Just write whatever ideas that would come in your mind. Write your things to do. It organizes your life at the same time it keeps you get tracked of your daily plans.
2. Keep up the good work
Yeah right ? If you seem to be doing so well then by all means prioritize what you need to do. Whatever !
3. Be an explorer.
As the movie The Losers says ” Don’t stop believing ! ” Criticize your job. A good criticism will always come from you. Of course right ?
4. Honesty is the best policy
Don’t be shy tell your friends that you have no time for non sense. Time is Gold so you should keep working. As the saying goes; Honesty is the best policy.
5. Spend
Don’t be a spendthrift. Learn to pay someone even for a small favor. Here in the Philippines, go to cubao area during midnight. Somebody would ask you for a small amount in change for a minute of happiness. That includes the room. You know what I mean. Sometimes you need to forget work and do this kind of activities. It’s great Fun. Pleasure is not that expensive.
original content and being up-to-date.
These are the tips that I will remember from Ms. Janette Toral. She said that I should maintain my blog with original content and I should blog at least 2-3 x a week to keep my blog updated. Posts which are not paid review. If I could then there would be a greater opportunities for me. I should also be available in facebook and twitter, so that she can easily contact me. » Read more: Taking Care of your Blog
Few months ago I meet an old friend, he has a car, he said that he was able to buy his car through blogging. I asked him what he did? He said he placed google adsense in his blog. Then he just keeps on blogging until he earned a lot through blogging, by means of putting adsense on his blog site. I asked him if he could teach me, he said no. He doesn’t want me to be his competitor. I beg to him to help me because I want to learn how to drive.
I told him that that he should have a car insurance. And I started to tell him that he should know car insurance rates. Because I know a site that offers cheap quotes. Most of my colleagues are satisfied customers of carinsurancerates.me . The company offers motor vehicle liability insurance at competitive rates.
Even if he doesn`t want to teach me his secret about blogging I am still concern to him because he is my friend.
The next day , he tried my advice , he visited carinsurancerates.me and he was able to compare cheaper rates for quality car insurance. It was easy to get started, he just filled out the form then used the quoting database and in just a click away he was able to find the best available rates and services in our state.
Car insurace rates made our friendship more stronger.
Remember those days when you we’re begging to a friend to leave a testimonial on your friendster, the first time you learn to chat when you commented to your friend`s blog and the time when you first share your photos to the public. Those were the things you did in the World Wide Web, and the same your friends and relatives did, it became your habit to use this social media to communicate with them and at the same time have fun. Social Media such as Friendster, Multiply, Facebook, Twitter , Plurk has become part of our routines and it has influenced the way we live our lives. » Read more: Describing the Social Media

I am a great fan of Janette Toral. Here in the Philippines she is considered as the Internet Guru. She is an organizer og blogging summit and social media conferences which helps us new bloggers to maximize and improve our craft. One day I was able to catch her latest buzz and I just can’t resist sharing it here. A repost of what she said. It will also serve as a reviewer, I will read this from time to time.
One thing that made Facebook very popular is its developer program. This allowed users like you and me who are creative in developing our very own application and share it in the social network for users to try out.
However, since late last year, there were so much abuses committed against this program. This includes:
- Applications that creates a photo and tag friends, appearing on notifications and not on your Facebook wall. (SIMs, Who’s Viewing Your Album?, Who’s Viewing Your Profile?)
- Applications that imitates Facebook’s “like” feature. (calling itself “like” and “likes”)
What is most common in these spam programs is that they are created in several variants using the same engine or re-uploaded several time using different user profiles. Some are also classified as a virus already.
To counter this, Facebook has now stopped applications from sending us notices. This is an issue especially for users who have authorized specific applications to update them such as NetworkedBlogs. I think what Facebook should prevent from sending spam notifications are those that were not authorized in the first place.
What is the worst thing that can happen to Facebook with these applications?
- People will get fed up with all the spam and leave.
- Facebook will face a huge attack that it can’t protect itself from – sooner or later.
What can Facebook do?
- Perhaps it is about time for Facebook to have a fee entry for its developer program, rather than be a free for all. This way, any abuser can be caught, properly identified, and be made accountable for their actions. They can implement a similar approach to developers selling apps in an iTunes store.
- Moderating application is another option but that may be too many to manage. However, I believe the above, the entry fee, will make abusers think twice if they will join.
We always say that social networking in 2010 will be bigger than ever. If it is all about Facebook, then all I can think about is that the 1st quarter is all about users defending itself from various form of spam attacking the network.
