Tenacious Creations

 I am sure just about everyone has heard of Skype and perhaps a lot of you are already using it. Now it is not too often that I give a product rave reviews but once again Skype has performed above my expectations.

 For some time now I have been using Skype as an instant messenger and for some conference calls. Yes that is right you can do conference calls with Skype. Not all your participants in the conference call need to be on a computer either. You can use Skype dial out service (for a reasonable fee) to call participants and involve them in your conference call.

 If you read about improving traffic to your site or selling a product you have no doubt heard about branding. When I think of branding I am remind of growing up on the farm. I can still smell the mixture of red hot metal and seared flesh. Just like the brand on cattle identifies them as some ones property establishing a brand for your web site or product does the same thing.

 Examples of this are the golden arches of McDonald’s, the apple of Apple and I am sure now that you think of it several more come to mind. An effective brand will create an emotional response in the consumer. Why an emotional response?

 Well I thought I better write a quick update as nothing has changed on this site for a while. As some of you might remember I was working on some software to work with AdSense a while back. Well I am happy to report that a company, that I can not name (nondisclosure agreements and all), and I are currently negotiating the sale of that software.

 Due to the fact of that software running on this site and the legal negotiations I have been very reluctant to post anything. In fact I cleared this post with my legal team before posting it.. I will try to keep you my loyal readers updated as much as I can as things progress.

 If you have been following my blog, you know that I have repeatedly reported on how evil FaceBook is.

 You may also know that I had disabled my profile on FaceBook. Well if you know me on FaceBook you may of noticed that I did indeed re-enable my profile a couple months ago. Now I know this sounds a little bit hypocritical. Well the reason is I was coerced into developing a couple of FaceBook applications with a business partner.
