This is a subsequent episode of my previous post about more powerful servers are required with the increasing needs of the Internet. As I have been playing with the Internet in a variety of ways… i.e. Checking my emails Coding and designing my various websites up (hitting about 40 of them) Hanging around in the social media to get [...]

Before I start, I just wish to clarify that “client computers” mean the actual desktop computer or laptop that you are holding right now. Long time ago, the client computers have very low specifications in terms of graphics, memory, hard disk and CPU speed.  That’s because we rely on the centralized servers to process the information, [...]

I don’t know yet myself… I may even attend one myself sooner or later… Or I may even get a chance to speak on the stage myself… But this question just pops up my head when I wonder why people are paying money to attend social media course… First of all, do you really need to [...]

For whatever reason it may be, it is always good to start your own online community where you have audience to hear what you have to say about your favorite topic.

I heard that Problogger is de-friending people on Facebook.  I was reading through that post, and found it very true… It’s not you or me… It’s Darren Rowse… While all of us are creating a personal branding of our own through the Internet, we may actually mix up our friends and family whom we are keeping [...]

I really appreciate all of you who have been taking the time to comment on my blog.  It is really enjoyable to have an interactive blog. Today, I just thought of writing this post to remind every blogger out there (myself included) that it really takes effort for people to comment on our blogs.  While they [...]

I wonder if any of you are still using Twitter after you have decided to use Google Buzz.  I am still trying out both, and trying to make the best use of both. Many of my twitter friends are not going to focus on Google Buzz at all.  I think there is a potential, and there [...]

Here’s a case study (from my perspective knowing through the social media only) of how a social media website manages a potential social media crisis themselves.
