Europe United with Samsung Mobile

Previously, I was given the opportunity by folks at TechARP to review the unreleased Samsung SGH-L760 mobile blogging phone. I tried very hard to review this Samsung mobile phone without being bias against my other free mobile phone, the Apple iPhone. And it wasn’t easy, trust me.

Besides being able to blog on the Samsung L760 and post pictures or videos direct with it, I have found the built-in camera to be satisfactory. Plus, the ability to record video was the biggest advantage against my Apple iPhone. See, even the Apple iPhone can lose out! And although the banner says help me win one, I’m going to giveaway the won Samsung L760 to anyone who leaves the most creative comment with the theme “I want the Samsung L760!”

Google Adsense Income Affected This Holiday Season

I recently received the Inside Adsense newsletter sent by the good ol folks of Google on November 16, 2007. Besides introduction of the new Adsense design back in April, Google did other big things this year. They recently did a major Google Dance which left a huge number of local and international blogs affected in the PageRank – even me.

Yet, Google has put their foot in the door again. This time its to curb accidental clicks during the holiday season and future. If you’ve been a long time user of Google Adsense, you’ll realize most clicks may be generated either via click fraud or strategic placed ads. These strategic placed ads can be helpful or can be the cause of accidental clicks.

How a Blog Can Improve Online Sales Leads?

I’ve always said the power of corporate blogging is an influential tool not only to move trends and markets but to improve your online sales or online sales leads. Surprisingly, I even found myself writing why a blog can boost business sales earlier this year.

Many are still afraid of how a blog is a double-edged sword to their business. When in fact, it all depends on which end you sharpen often. Is it the edge that gives you the increase in sales leads and conversions, or the end of being arrogant and not listening to what your commenters have to say about the product or service. With the proper blogging strategy, you’ll reap more than you can sow I tell you.

Maxis Support for Apple iPhone in Malaysia

Before I first took my Apple iPhone in Malaysia for a spin, I already read about it’s compatibility issue of my telco provider; Maxis. The Maxis compatibility issue is it disapproves any incoming calls when my Maxis simcard is inserted in my Apple iPhone. I also experienced this first hand on the first day I got my Apple iPhone because a client of mine tried calling me. Oops! But he’s forgotten about it ever since I showed him the device. *grin*

And ever since I started blogging about the Apple iPhone in Malaysia, many potential buyers and owners have expressed their distressed over Maxis incompatibility with the Apple iPhone. There was a blogger who mentioned he wrote to the Maxis support. All the support could do was reply the Maxis network doesn’t support the Apple iPhone in Malaysia at this point of time. It’s just sad I tell you. Especially when DiGi and Celcom networks have no related issues. On the other hand, good news seems to be in certain areas now.

What Blog Topics Make More Money?

Let’s be honest here. We’ve heard of stories bloggers already started cashing cheques after 3-months of blogging. Some report doing it even after a month of blogging. Like you, I wonder how they do it or what they even tell is just to get more traffic.

One of the things people love hearing is how others made their money using the same method – especially if the sum is more than what we are generating. So that’s one of the topics which will help you generate more money. Everyone wants to be a millionaire but just don’t know how. So there’s no excuse not knowing what can you blog.
