Ping.fm is not Ping

Mostly like you all know this already, but I personally was confused when I first saw the new iTunes update. So I’m writing this to clear it up for anyone who needs to know…just in case.

Smartphone Apps and the Future of Your Business

I’m not an iPhone user. I have an Android powered phone, so I only have about 70,000 apps to choose from compared to the 225,000 apps that iPhone users have.

But limited as I am, even I can see where the future lies. Managing your life from your mobile device is the way of the future and the future is NOW! You can do everything from managing your finances on line with apps like Mobile Banking and others. You can pay your bills right on your Smartphone with apps like My Verizon Mobile.

Google vs. The World

As we all know Google is the giant when it comes to search engines. And when you are the Big boy you put yourself in the sights of anyone with ambition and/or drive to be numero uno.

According to Computerworld Google still reigns supreme at 65.8% of the search market last month . The thing is that Google actually lost .04% of it’s share. Remember this is global and .04% of search traffic is a huge number of people.

Where is HTML5?

HTML5 is the future of the web – both for the future of how we present video and as a replacement for proprietary technologies like Adobe Flash.

However, Erik Huggers at the BBC has concerns that HTML5 may not deliver on that promise.

“The fact is that there’s still a lot of work to be done on HTML5 before we can integrate it fully into our products. As things stand I have concerns about HTML5′s ability to deliver on the vision of a single open browser standard which goes beyond the whole debate around video playback.”

The Mobile Marketing Race is On!

Microsoft is after Apple…Apple is after Google…and Google is going after the world!

The world is changing “technologically” right before our eyes and this means opportunity for you and your business.

I saw yesterday a brilliant man extremely successful and extremely influential in his area of expertise make a pointed statement against those in the Internet Marketing field.

His statement was that the Internet wasn’t a technology medium, but a people medium.

Online Marketing, The iPhone Billion Dollar Success!

Yes it sounds unbelievable but it is true…

There is one company that is going for broke with their marketing. They sold $1.1 BILLION DOLLARS in 3 days …just this week-end!

They are selling items that cost hundreds of dollars each and for the most part their products require that you sign up for  1 to 2 years of additional (costly) monthly services.
