Selecting The Right Internet Hosting Company!

I can remember looking for a hosting company that would be the best fit for me and my needs. I actually purchased hosting, taking advantage of the “30 day money back guarantees” that they offered. That was how I selected them…

But now I’ve found the best hosting reviews at Upperhost.com that I (and you too) can use to find that perfect hosting company that you will find because of the excellent reviews they offer.
They review the very top of the market in hosting companies, and narrow down that decision for us in who to select. For example, they review inmotion web hosting -and by the looks of their review, they are a top notch company.

So you see, it’ll be so much easier to make that final choice for a web site hosting company using their review services.

I just tried to get the phone number to my local Wal-mart by calling 1800-goog-411. And it worked! I don’t know about you, but my cell phone carrier charges for their 411 service, so I have to give a big hand to Google for offering this service for free.

Check out the Google video for it:

Video Blogging

When asked if the availability of this feature could lead to a rise in video blogging, CEO Ron Yekutiel responded via phone interview: “Absolutely.” A rise in video blogging will also mean a rise in the legal availability of usable and re-mixable video content, since any video uploaded using Kaltura’s platform is fair game for Kaltura members. “We’re in the process of amassing the largest network or repository of shareable content,” Yekutiel says.

How Do You Spend Your Print Money?

I have to admit, I am a sucker for printing out graphic intensive materials. For example, I will be marketing a new small business for a client that is in the dog breeding industry. And the marketing materials contains tons of dogs, so it is heavily pictured. And to get the final product just the way client likes it, I will have to submit drafts of the work. And as you know, there will be many drafts before the final selection is made. I am pickier than my clients!

Now, printing out these flyer’s will cost me an arm and a leg if I did it on my office printer. And taking it to the local (read: expensive) print shop will cost me even more. So what can I do? Well, like most small businesses or start-ups, capital is tight. So I use online print services, such as the small business printing you can get at psprint.com. From the submission process to the final product, they offer great pricing as well as excellent service. Their support team is top notch as well. So why don’t you try them out the next time you are in need of printing your marketing materials?

Costum Fields And Semantics

It seems to me that using “advanced” WordPress themes can sometimes cause your XHTML to break. So what do we do about it? Well, you can edit each and every PHP line of code, hack those pesky plugins too, and create validity out of them, or…you can do this:

Semantic Videos

I never heard of “Semantic Video Web” until I stumbled upon Beet.TV’s write up on it. Basically, it’s the idea of indexing videos. Here’s a taste of what is said:

The development of a Semantic Web is a key goal of Tim Berners-Lee and the World Wide Web Consortium. Last year I interviewed W3C chief architect Philippe Le Hegaret on the global indexing of videos.

So watch this short video (semantic video?) on the topic, and let us know what do you all think: Just another buzz word, or much more?
