Using video to promote your website

Using video to promote your website, services, or products has become an integral component of online advertising. With the explosive popularity of sites such as YouTube (now considered the number two search engine online), Vimeo, and others - it's time to embrace video and make it work on behalf of your company and your website.

Here are some amázing statistics about online video from 2010:

   * 172 millíon U.S. viewers watched an average of 14.6 hours of video.

   * Over 40% of consumers watch online videos on a weekly basis - Over 70% watch monthly.

   * YouTube serves over 1 billion videos per day.

   * YouTube (owned by Google) is expected to hit $2 billion in revenue during 2011.

   * Viral video marketing campaigns boost clickthrough rates by 750%. (MarketingExperiments.com, November 2006)

   * E-commerce sites that use product videos sell up to 45% more. Onlineshoes.com says it sees a 45% higher conversion rate for customers who watch videos on its website. Zappos.com says it sells up to 30% more for products that it shows in videos instead of just static pictures. (Sources: ReelSEO, Internet Retailer)

Online video marketing first surged in 2007 and has been growing exponentially every year since. Over $3 billion was spent on online video advertising during 2010. With online video becoming such a major marketing player, it's an important advertising genre to consider embracing.

Researchers ride waves for better spin current

British researchers have developed a more efficient method of generating current for transferring information in 'spintronics', touted as the successor to the transistor.


Spintronics taps the 'spin' -- instead of the charge -- of an electron for storing, processing and communicating information.

3 Facts you need to know, to blast your business into the future

I would like to take a moment of your time and talk about the brand new

ICANetwork Smartphone App with unlimited text messaging.

FACT No. 1:

 The number of internet connected devices is set to explode in the next four years to over 15 billion - twice the world's population by 2015. Technology giant Cisco predicts the proliferation of tablets, mobile phones, connected appliances and other smart machines will drive this growth.

Don't get left out on this technological wave... it's happening right now!

Think of your smart phone app as an advertising tool, or as a communication tool, or both!  Use it for Business, Family or just for fun.

FACT No 2:

Right now today, 95% of all text messages are read within five minutes of receipt. Compare that to email. Email messages do not even come close.

Alert your customers to specials, click the mouse, send a text message anytime of the day or night, as often as you want... No extra charge!

This technology works on all smart phones - iPhones, iPad and Android-based systems.

FACT No 3:

This app has already been trialled and is in use by Jane Mark and Phil Basten for Sokule and the Kule collection, so you know it has to be good.

No matter what field you're in, no matter what market you serve, you better hurry! You can beat your competitors to the punch.

When information comes across your screen that you do not want to forget, a screen capture is in order. While using inaccurate and confusing hot keys was once the preferred method, ScreenHunter Free offers an alternative that promises to simplify the process.
This free program has a simple interface that makes this operation surprisingly easy. The main screen is well spaced and intuitive enough to have new users making screen captures in no time. A menu along the top allows users to make screen captures now or to stand by. Along the left side of the screen are the buttons to toggle between options of where the capture comes from, where it is sent, and more advanced options. The Advanced and Send To options are fairly standard for this type of software, but the Capture From option is quite unique. On this screen, users can select a single hot key to take screen captures, as well as select whether they'd like a full-screen capture, capture a window, or simple a small rectangle (which brings up crosshairs that let you zero in on target).
ScreenHunter Free promises to make getting screen captures easier and we were pleased to find it lived up to this promise. The process is simple, the options are easy to manage, and the results are flawless. We highly recommend this download for all users.
