Introducing Snap Shots from Snap.com

TheNicheBlogger — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 14:11:00 +0000

I just installed a nice little tool on this site called Snap Shots that enhances links with visual previews of the destination site, interactive excerpts of Wikipedia articles, MySpace profiles, IMDb profiles and Amazon products, display inline videos, RSS, MP3s, photos, stock charts and more.

Sometimes Snap Shots bring you the information you need, without your having to leave the site, while other times it lets you “look ahead,” before deciding if you want to follow a link or not.

Should you decide this is not for you, just click the Options icon in the upper right corner of the Snap Shot and opt-out.

Seo Refugee: Should it be time to root for Microsoft

TheNicheBlogger — Tue, 24 Jul 2007 00:51:00 +0000

Over at the SEO Refugee they bring up a great point about the looking after MS against the great Search engine giant google.

Root for MS

Whew! As a Microphobe in good standing for over two decades, I never thought I’d say that. But the truth is, hating Microsoft just isn’t as much fun as it used to be. The reason is simple. As a web designer and developer, Microsoft and the indignities it inflicts upon the computing experience, just aren’t that relevant to me in the twenty-first century.

Anyways, I came across this site that had some coupons on dells the great thing is it was on the xps. The xps is one of the fastest dell computers.

YPN publishes its own blog

TheNicheBlogger — Tue, 11 Apr 2006 11:22:29 +0000

The Yahoo Publishing Network which is the equivalent of the Google Adsense program has started its own their blog. The goal of which is too..

We know that for the Yahoo! Publisher Network to be successful, publishers need to be successful, too. So we started the Yahoo! Publisher Network blog to:

Give publishers – you folks – a voice in the evolution of the Yahoo! Publisher Network and its products.

Build a place where you can come and learn about the latest updates and enhancements to the Network

Showcase your work and your contributions to making Yahoo! Publisher Network what is today – and to what it will become tomorrow

Provide a community space where you can learn from other publishers how to be a better one yourself

In a way its a me too type of situation. Google has a Blog the covers alot of the same topics. Just in this case its how to optimize for Yahoo.

I say good for Yahoo. These new ad networks are going a long way toward helping bloggers monetize their sites. Any new resources that can contribute to the success of blogging is fine by me. Optimization, Monetization and Trafficaztion are the name of the game!

Rss feeds friendly or not?

TheNicheBlogger — Thu, 06 Apr 2006 19:36:24 +0000

Toby over at problogger.net has a great piece on the pros and cons of building relationships with RSS

Is RSS is the downfall of building relationships and commerce on blogs? First, let’s set the record straight. I’ve drunk the kool aid. I get it. I love RSS and that new orange icon is pretty cute too. The ability to read huge amounts of information in one place, receive it at the second it’s published and not worry about email spam is awesome.

But is Spam going to Kill off the benefits of this communication medium?

I say it won’t we are going to start seeing RSS integrated into more things. People expect their information they want to come to them not them go it. Its a RSS world so get with it.
