Submitting to Web 2.0 Sites Is A Very Smart Idea

Saturday, July 26th, 2008

People who advertise on the Internet and who sell their goods or services there often get used to where they were in the beginning and they’re not that interested in making changes or moving into new venues.

With the advent of Web 2.0, these people have to make some changes or risk being left in the dust by their competitors. Social networking is becoming a huge part of the lives of a lot of these people and others are still playing catch-up.

Some people are uncomfortable with too much social networking or Web 2.0 because they think that it is only for people to share personal information. What they don’t know is many sites exist in cyberspace for professional networking too.

The idea behind Web 2.0 is not to be juvenile or overly personal, but simply to help people connect with one another in whatever manner they want to. They can share as much or as little information as they want with each other, and they can branch out and meet new people, learning about others as they go. This is the beauty behind Web 2.0 – the idea that there are so many different options that, with a little research, you can find exactly what you need and connect with people who share your goals and interests.

YouTube – Now on TiVo!

Friday, July 25th, 2008

According to most ‘techies,’ new technology isn’t that exciting if you can’t get YouTube on it. TiVo was revolutionary when it first came out, but it did lack YouTube, and now the new versions of TiVo will no longer have that problem.

If you have TiVo series 2, though, you’ll be out of luck, because it will only be available on series 3 and HD models. By the end of the month, TiVo owners who qualify for the YouTube ability should see the download option they can use to get the service. Whether this is really needed is arguable, but like most of technology needed is not really the issue.

The main issue is what people want and demand from the technology that they have and will buy in the future. YouTube is one of the most popular sites in existence today, because almost everything can be found there.

Are you looking for a music video from a one-hit wonder? Do you want to see hip-hop from another country? How about a video of someone having a medical procedure?

No matter what your interest is, there is something on YouTube that will catch your attention, and mixing it with TiVo only seems to be a natural choice that will appeal to a very large number of people.

Well its been a while since I launched the site so where do we stand?

Thursday, November 30th, 2006

Overall I’ve been very happy with the response to the site, peoples response has generally been very positive.

In the last 45 days over 70 people have joined the site and announced over 170 launches, with very little promotion on my part. That is about to change, now that things are running fairly smoothly I’m going to make a concerted effort to promote the site and get it the attention it deserves.

I’ve also decided that this blog will expand its purpose a little, instead of just being about the website, I will also start blogging about promotion, and search engine optimization techniques to get the most traffic for your website.

Hope you all like the website, and continue to announce your launches!
