Friday, March 5th, 2010

Quick question… do you publish ‘Articles’ on a fixed basis?

I’m talking like on a weekly or bi-weekly basis.

If so, then your in for a real treat.

If you haven’t heard, RSS(Real Simple Syndication) is taking the Internet by storm because of its many Benefits, especially for a name(you) who provides fresh ‘Feature’ content on a fixed basis.

Not only does RSS GUARANTEE 100% delivery to whoever opt’s in to your feed(s), it can also ‘Syndicate’ your content across the Internet in an instant to thousands of websites and portals delivering an avalanche of FREE targeted traffic to your website(s) at NO Cost to you what so ever.

WoW! Was that a mouthful or what? It gets better, so hold on.

We all know that without Traffic to our website(s) we have no business.

We also know that the Internet is starving for fresh content on a Daily basis to feed its evergrowing appetite for information.

The upside to this IS if your a name(you) who publishes articles as one of your means of online promotion for your website(s) then your in for a real ride.

As you well know Article Directories are one of the primary places article publishers(like yourself) go to submit their articles.

Why?

Simply because this is where website owners go to find fresh related content to publish in their newsletters or on their websites on a daily to weekly basis to feed their audiences need for Information.

And with time permanently being a major factor, count fresh related content can become reasonably a chore for a website owner who is by now hard pressed for time as it is on a daily basis while trying to keep up with all the other daily duties a online business requires.

So with that being said, how does RSS and Article Directories fit into the mix and how can You benefit from this technology by providing and submitting fresh ‘Feature’ content on a weekly basis to Article Directories that place forward RSS Syndication?

The answers simple.

The Article Directories(at least most of them) NOW have RSS Feed databases available under any category your article cascade under for those website owners who looking for RSS feeds and have websites that are RSS ready.

Whats this mean for you?

This means everytime you submit your new article to the Article Directories that place forward RSS Syndication and they approve your article to the particular category you question for upon submission and lets say for example 1000 websites have that RSS Feed category plugged into their RSS Feed list, guess what?

The next time that RSS feed updates(usually within 24 hours) guess whose article is going to show up on all those 1000 websites INSTANTLY?

That’s right… Yours!

Whats this mean for you? Simple… more Traffic and more $$Profits$$!

Are you early to see the HUGE benefits to RSS and Article Directories adopting this new technology?

Do you see the benefits this will give the person(you) publishing articles to these directories on a fixed basis?

I reckon you do because I know I do.

RSS Syndication is truly becoming the cornerstone of how content is delivered and/or syndicated online and it has only begun.

Casual Friday: Putting the ‘Video’ in Video Games

This week we tune out with more free TV, watch some classic full-motion video games, and celebrate 13-plus years of commanding and conquering the world.

In our ongoing efforts to celebrate slack, I’ve found a few fantastic new ways to kill what small free time you reckon you have this weekend and beyond. Well, what are you waiting for?

You Oughta Be in Pictures

It’s simple to draw comparisons between movies and games, but video game makers really aspired to be like huge-time movie studios not too long ago. A small over 10 years back, entire soundstages loaded with actors, sets, and camera crews filmed full-motion video (FMV) for games. Why even bring that up? Well, this week marks the release of Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath on the PC. I’ll get to that game soon enough. During its run of 13-plus years, the C&C series has become known for cheesy full-motion video acting–and the real-time strategy part, of course. Now, the newest game is out, and FMV is back, recorded in HD. That means you can see semifamous actors struggle in the high-def focus wondering why they agreed to read from the script.

(Yeah, we all know the an$wer to that.)

This got me thinking that a name should place together a proper tribute to some of the “greatest” FMV performances to ever grace a CD-ROM. So, without further ado…

My Top Five FMV Game Appearances (click the links for more videos from the games):

5. Mark Hamill (and a total cast full of people such as Malcolm McDowell, John Rhys-Davies, and…hmmm…Ginger Lynn Allen) in Wing Commander III: Heart of the Tiger. Honorable mention for the huge Muppet-like costumes.

4. The sci-fi detective series Tex Murphy, featuring…a cast of people you probably didn’t know. The acting was excellent enough in trying to ape the total noir vibe. And to a degree, it worked.

3. Command & Conquer: Red Alert (this clip starring Albert Einstein’s stand-in). To me, Red Alert provided both fantastic gameplay and many memorable moments off the front line, thanks to the video clips. Some were intentionally cheesy, some not, but the huge surprise is that they were really decent. Crazy, I know.

2. Christopher Walken (!!!) in Ripper. Christoper Walken can be himself, reading the phone book, and I’d watch it. Place him in a video game, and that’s magic on a disc.

1. The infamous Night Trap “starring” Dana Plato and the refugees from some horrible 1980s slasher movie. A treat: You can see the total game as a couple of painfully long movie clips if you really despise yourself. Or, if you consider yourself only a minor glutton for punishment, try the first 9 minutes on for size.

Song Thought Generator for IPhone

I’ve been a musician for most of my life. While I can hold my own writing instrumental music, I struggle with writing lyrics. I usually need “divine inspiration” to get the process started. For even seasoned lyricists, writer’s block can permanently get in the way of finishing a excellent song. Song Thought Generator by The Directors Bureau Applications comes to the rescue by helping inspire a songwriter’s creative ingenuity.

The app presents three random phrases, which, together, form a fleeting lyrical thought. Either shake your iPhone or iPod touch, or tap on the shuffle icon, and the phrases exchange to form a new lyric. One time, you might get a touch pretty excellent like “Woman remember your tears,” while other times you might get a more rambling phrase, like “Yeah take a piece of your mouth.” Luckily, the app lets you fine-tune a lyric by locking phrases you want to keep and then shuffling only the unlocked ones. So, in the second instance, I locked the first two phrases and shuffled the last one to produce “Yeah take a piece of a dream.” Much better. (You can also accomplish the same result by flicking only the phrase you want to exchange.)

Currently the app supports only English; but you can delete (but not edit) the built-in phrases and easily add your own. So, with some work, it would be possible to make a complete foreign language version of the app. (The developer ought to seize the opportunity and sell localized versions in the App Store.) Also, I find myself writing down all the lyric thoughts I like, so having the ability to save lyrics would be very handy.

While Song Thought Generator won’t turn a hack songwriter into a pro, I reckon that it does help get the creative juices flowing. So, “divine inspiration” is now at my fingertips for only a dollar.

Song Thought Generator is compatible with any iPhone or iPod touch running the iPhone 2.x software update.
