What’s the Buzz About the Soon-to-be-released Nokia N96 Mobile Phone?

Thursday 16 July 2009 @ 9:50 pm
Caroline Telford asked:


On the third quarter of the year 2008, the Nokia N96 - which is the successor of the successful Nokia N9 and Nseries - is set to be released.

As the world’s largest mobile phone manufacturer, it is quite easy for Nokia to come up with innovative designs and a line of mobile phones to suit a particular lifestyle.

For example, the Nokia Eseries is a line of mobile phones with enhanced connectivity and business application features. The target market of this line of mobile phones is business users.

Now, with the Nokia Nseries, it is actually a line of multimedia smartphones. The idea is to offer the modern mobile user digital multimedia services. This includes music playback, video, enhanced photography, Internet services and mobile gaming.

For these applications, high-speed wireless technology such as 3G, wireless LAN and HSDPA are used.

The first line of mobile phones was made available in April of 2005. So far, here are the models released under the Nokia Nseries:

- Nokia N70

- Nokia N70 Music Edition

- Nokia N71

- Nokia N72

- Nokia N73

- Nokia N73 Music Edition

- Nokia N75

- Nokia N76

- Nokia N77

- Nokia N78

- Nokia N80

- Nokia N81

- Nokia N81 8GB

- Nokia N82

- Nokia N90

- Nokia N92

- Nokia N93

- Nokia N93i

- Nokia N95

- Nokia N95 8GB

- Nokia N96

- Nokia N800

- Nokia N810

Nokia N96 Review

Despite the fact that the Nokia N96 is yet to be released on the third quarter of the year, some reviewers got the first dibs on the pre-production models. According to the Nokia N96 review online, the phone is lighter and slimmer than its predecessor which is the Nokia N95.

As compared to the other phones from the Nseries, the Nokia N96 has a better overall design quality. It has a 2-way slide just like the Nokia N95, but the features are much improved and sleeker-loooking.

Also, the first feature which has a great difference from the previous models is the internal memory. The Nokia N96 has 16GB of memory, twice the size of the Nokia N95 units.

The features of the Nokia N96 mobile phone includes:

- 3G and WLAN access

- GPS navigation

- Mobile television (depending on the network)

- Full HTML browser

- 5-Megapixel camera

- VGA camera in front for video calling

- Double LED flash

- 3G video calling

- Built-in motion sensor

The camera is the highlight of the Nokia N96. Aside from the improved resolution, it also uses the crystal clear Carl Zeiss optics Tessar lens. It comes complete with auto focus and auto exposure features. When you add to that the dual LED flash, this is one nifty camera and all-in-one phone to have.

If these features will all be incorporated in the actual Nokia N96 to be released on the third quarter of the year - then it is a definite improvement.

As compared to the previous designs of the Nokia Nseries phones, the Nokia N96 has a better camera resolution, more internal memory, as well as a lighter and sleeker design.

Latest Nokia Phones for Small Business - Nokia E70 Review & Nokia E62 Review

Wednesday 15 July 2009 @ 3:30 pm
Nokia Review asked:


Nokia’s Enterprise series phones cater mainly to the business professional, but anyone can appreciate the benefits of these phones. I love the Eseries phones because they seem much more practical than other phones. You’ll find useful features in these two latest Nokia phones that you won’t find in other phones. Best of all, the latest Nokia Eseries phones look quite sleek and attractive.

Nokia E62 Review

The slim E62 is an international roaming quad-band device which supports 850/900/1800/1900 bands. The screen features rich colors on a rather large screen (320 x 240), you’ll have no problems with image quality here. The phone itself is very light, weighing in at around 5 ounces - less than a 1/3 of a pound!

The latest Nokia E62 is perfect for e-mail with the handy QWERTY keyboard. Business users will also appreciate the dedicated e-mail key and flashing message alert light. Internal memory is a nice 90 MB, which leaves plenty of room for storing your messages and files.

Talk time is around 5 hours, with stand-by time a lengthy 14 days.

The Nokia E62 is packed with extra voice features that you’ll find very convenient. You’ll find hands-free voice dialing, voice commands for menu selections, push-to-talk, as well as a dedicated voice button for quick and simple voice recording.

Armed with the versatile Symbian S60 3rd Edition OS, the E62 can handle pretty much anything you throw at it. Pre-installed on the Nokia E62 is also a bevy of useful office software. You’ll find a word processor, a spreadsheet program, an innovative web browser, and more.

Available from Cingular Wireless the Nokia E62 is also very inexpensive when compared to similar devices. If you’re operating on a budget, then the E62 would be the perfect match for your business phone needs.

Nokia E70 Review

The Nokia E70 is a little heavier than the Nokia E62, but it incorporates a camera on the back (while the E62 has no camera) so the extra weight is called for.

The design is unique but very functional. Flip open the E70 to reveal a fully functional keyboard. The keyboard makes this phone ideal for business communications like e-mail and messenger. You can even send messages easily in the dark, a vivid white backlight will brighten up your keyboard.

The Nokia E70 features a wonderfully big rich display at 352 x 416 pixels. The phone operates on the slick S60 Symbian 3rd Edition OS. Included is the S60 Office Suite, as well as programs like Handy Expense and Zip Manager.

Since Eseries phones are mostly business oriented phones, most of them don’t have cameras. This is one of the only Eseries phones that actually has a camera. The camera is quality, 2 megapixels with 8x digital zoom. Record near-VHS quality video with the Nokia E70 in up to 3 different resolutions at 15 FPS (frames per second).

The latest Nokia E70 phone also features integrated Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is perfect to stay in touch or on the Internet anywhere in the world, as long as you’re within range of a Wi-Fi network.

Setting up your mobile e-mail is quick and easy right out of the box. Nokia likes to make this easy for their business users to sync their existing contacts, calendar, and other data.

The Nokia E70 is one of Nokia’s most robust business phones and offers all the features you’ll ever need in a phone.

Google Adsense as Supplemental Income

Tuesday 14 July 2009 @ 9:31 pm
Meena Kumari asked:


There are times Google’s heralded ad affiliate program isn’t in your long term business interest. Oh no I said it!

AdSense isn’t the unstoppable revenue engine for every eBusiness. Before I am taken out and flogged by the eCommerce pundits — please let me explain what I mean in my defense.

I make revenues from AdSense at a very high click-through rate. I experience high click-through rates with AdSense without resorting to questionable tactics like tricking site users with photos (the AdSense trick and tip dujour).

There are times Google’s heralded ad affiliate program isn’t in your long term business interest. Oh no I said it!

AdSense isn’t the unstoppable revenue engine for every eBusiness. Before I am taken out and flogged by the eCommerce pundits — please let me explain what I mean in my defense.

I make revenues from AdSense at a very high click-through rate. I experience high click-through rates with AdSense without resorting to questionable tactics like tricking site users with photos (the AdSense trick and tip dujour).

So my perspective is from one who has made decent income from AdSense to fund aspects of his business like advertising seminars — and outsourcing to his virtual assistants. Yes, AdSense is a legitimate and significant revenue source. However evaluate AdSense with some type of balance.

By now you may have heard about people like 6 figure income with AdSense, or Jason Calacanis of Weblogs being on his way to generating 1 million dollars in AdSense revenue. Google’s Ad revenue sharing affiliate program for publishers certainly seems to be an eSales Nirvana for many webmasters.

But there are obvious and not so obvious times not to use AdSense ads on your sites. Let’s list - examine - and explain them below.

1. On Sales or Mini-sites

This is a no-brainer. If you are trying to sell a particular product that is important to your bottomline, you don’t want AdSense ads distracting your customers from either joining your email list, or hindering your site’s online sales process.

However I do see hybrid sites that are mini-sites or full scale eCommerce sites, with AdSense at the bottom of their pages. This might not be so bad since only 1% - 15% of your site visitors will either buy from you or fill out a form.

The thinking with this approach is you might as well make money from disinterested parties using up your server’s bandwidth.

2. SEO Business Sites

If your livelihood depends on search engine optimization or marketing for a living you might want to think twice about displaying AdSense Ads on your site. I can tell you this from personal experience. I once was on top of MSN for search engine marketing in my local area. I concentrated on my local area because I found people felt more comfortable hiring an eCommerce consultant locally.

One day my site fails totally out of the MSN index. After intense study I noticed that I obviously had a filter on my site from MSN.

I analyzed all the top ranking sites in MSN and noticed the only difference between me and the other top ranking sites was I had Google AdSense ads on my site. Someone at MSN felt that my AdSense ads, and perhaps to a less extent, my book on SEO, was getting a free ride in the MSN search engine database.

In fact I noticed that there were no sites with AdSense ads for at least the first 3 pages. Plus the sites with AdSense were only using 1 ad unit at the bottom of the home page (there were very few of them in the top 5 pages).

I knew it was strange to not have AdSense ads on the top Internet marketing sites. This prompted me to scan other industries where I noticed the same trend.

Many of the leading SEO gurus have sites that have been banned from the top listings by the search engines. It seems the more visible you become, the more of a target your sites are to the search engine auditors.

Some of my sites are still on the top of MSN with AdSense ads but that doesn’t mean they won’t also be targets in the future.

Let’s face the facts. MSN and Yahoo! have competing ad networks to Google’s, and this competitive situation is rife for a potential backlash against SEO sites with AdSense ads.

Many SEOs will point to exceptions to this position. However you have been warned!

Think about it, how long will MSN and Yahoo! sit back and watch SEO driven websites use their search indexes to fund Google? Did you know SEO in MSN and Yahoo(!) — is much easier to obtain.

Therefore optimized sites are creating an ad sales wealth transfer from MSN and Yahoo into the pockets of Google! It won’t be long before Yahoo! and MSN begin to devalue ranking on AdSense sites in their databases — if not outright ban them.

If you are in the search engine business stay search engine neutral, or create multiple sites for different search engines.

3. When AdSense Becomes Your Only Business Model

When you become so myopic in your thinking that you build a business solely on AdSense revenue — think again my friend. Why build a business solely on the largess of Google?

I don’t know if your realize it or not, but the sites making the real big AdSense money usually have a following that doesn’t depend on the search engines. Internet mavens like Chris Pirillo or Joel Comm have been on the Internet a while and have followings for their websites. Therefore they can consistently make six figures with AdSense.

These content powerhouses are an asset to Google and not the other way around. But do you think Google is going to sit back and watch just anybody make big bucks off of their top rankings?

If you do a search on most keywords you will notice many of the top ranking sites are news sites, .gov sites, or .org sites these days. The only exception is in industries where these sites don’t really exist like eCommerce industries (clothing, shopping, etc.).

No doubt in most industries you will notice a conspicuous scarity of AdSense sites in the top rankings. In other words don’t bet your future fortunes on AdSense.

An IPO based on projections of AdSense revenue isn’t in the future for the average eBusiness. Think of Google AdSense as supplemental income. Building a business solely on AdSense revenue isn’t just silly — it’s just plain stupid.

Why Switch to Windows Vista

Tuesday 14 July 2009 @ 3:25 am
M. Aslam asked:


In addition to hype there are some tangible reasons to upgrade and or switch over to Windows Vista. I can recount only some of them.

Start from the appearance. Windows Vista looks different; window, desktop, start button, start menu, taskbar, everything has a new look. Window in Windows Vista looks somewhat similar to that of in Mac OSX. Minimize, maximize and the close buttons seem new. The windows can be made to appear in translucent, 3D modes, if the new Aero is applied. The start button has been modified to give a new look and the word

“start” is gone. Instead new Windows logo appears in start button. Start menu and wallpapers are also new. The desktop contains a side bar, which shows a clock, and some of the widgets.

Windows Vista provides high level of security measures. Windows Vista that comes with Internet Explorer which is version 7.0 provides a higher degree of security to the system, as well as, the operating system environment. It includes phasing filter to provide higher

security while surfing the net. Protection against spamming is also provided. The other security measures include tools such as Windows defender, advanced firewall, Encryption/Decryption of data, support for NTFS partitions, auto backup. The Windows Defender is a program which blocks suspicious programs which tries to do some illegal

activity in the computer system. Also users can control kids by using parental controls in Windows Vista. Parents can now deny access to certain programs especially, the games. At the same time the Windows Media Player 11 enhances video, audio quality when playing sound, music, videos.

One of my favorite features in Windows Vista is search results. Users can have a new and improved search experience in Vista; they can manage images more efficiently with inbuilt Photo Gallery and a lot more.

So what is your choice?

How Can Your Company Become More Popular? Search Engine Optimization Training Can Show You.

Tuesday 14 July 2009 @ 1:13 am
Jane Fields asked:


An interesting trend has emerged at the start of 2009 that will impact your marketing strategy and your choice of SEO company. Because we are in challenging economic times, many businesses are looking to save money in their marketing budgets. This search for low-cost marketing has increased the importance of social media, an affordable and effective marketing option.

Ron Callari, writing for Scoop Independent News in New Zealand, predicts that “businesses will take a more integrated approach to social marketing in 2009 to save money as the economy continues to falter. Low-cost social marketing will become the tool of choice.” He also believes that SEO companies will help businesses repurpose their offline messages for redistribution on social media sites, like social networks, blogs, wikis and video sharing sites. This will, in turn, increase their reach and their “search authority”.

Supporting Callari’s statements, a recent study out of Toronto shows that 82% of Canadian business leaders plan to spend more on social media marketing in 2009 than they did in the previous year.

Further evidence of the importance of social media marketing was seen in a news story from the Wall Street Journal in January, 2009, which stated that advertisers have begun moving their dollars away from search advertising and towards mobile platforms and social networks. The article goes on to say that search engines have not faded from the landscape, but a significant shift towards social media is clearly underway.

So, how does your business ride the wave of social media marketing? It is not as straightforward as you might think. There are many social media sites.

How can your company become more popular? Search engine optimization training can show you.

If you manage your own Website, you may have some knowledge of how to increase your ranking on Google. But keeping up with the latest trends and information on search engine optimization (SEO) is a full-time job. It requires constant scanning and reading of SEO Websites and blogs, and who has time for that?

This is where search engine optimization training comes in. With the right training course, you can learn all of this “inside” information without having to do the actual research yourself. Leave it to your instructors to prowl the Net for information on Google algorithms and ranking secrets. All you need to do is attend a course that will tell you what’s new in the world of SEO and, more importantly, how you can apply this knowledge to your business.

For example, many SEO experts believe that Google’s algorithm (the complex and top-secret formula they use for ranking sites) has changed to base a site’s ranking more on links than on-site content. Some peg the ratio at 80%-90% links and only 10%-20% site content. The bottom line for you? Stop worrying so much about optimizing your pages and start worrying about building links.

Knowing the best way to build links without incurring the wrath of Google is not easy. You cannot just start dropping links to your Website anywhere you want. You need a clear strategy to ensure you get high-quality links and to ensure that you build your popularity gradually. Your links need to come from a variety of sources. And you need to know how to create the right anchor text to appeal to search engines.

A search engine optimization training course can tell you everything you need to know about building link popularity through:

• General Advice on Increasing the Visibility of Your Site - There are lots of techniques you can use to build popularity. A general overview will get you started.

• Directories - Some are better than others and it is important that you can determine which are best suited to your business. If you live in a large centre, like Toronto, the choice of local directories alone can overwhelm you. SEO training can tell you which directories to focus on and whether it is worthwhile to pay for a listing.

• Using Blogs and Articles - A lot of companies have discovered the power of blog and article marketing. Regular blog posts with the right kind of links to your site can help boost popularity. Similar in concept to blogs, articles enable you to get your name out there, and offer many chances to link to your site. Your search engine optimization training course will show you how to start and maintain a blog, and where to post articles you have written.

• The Latest Trends in Link Popularity - Find out which link building techniques are working most effectively at this moment in time. Be ahead of the curve and stay ahead of the competition.

With the right instruction, you can get launch a strong and effective link building program. Search engine optimization training can show you how to build links, and put that knowledge in context so you can develop a comprehensive Web marketing plan.

Vineeth Purushothaman asked:


With its incredible diversity, India is a feast for the senses for people around the world, with its colour, character, philosophy and organised chaos. All my life I have revelled in this and considered myself very fortunate to be a part of it. However, it has made my search for such diversity and vibrancy elsewhere much harder.

Having planned some time off to travel last year, my wife, Sophia, and I narrowed the list of places we wanted to visit to South America or Indonesia; and when a good friend related fascinating stories from Indonesia, it seemed like a sleeping giant that the world knew little about so we decided to go and see it for ourselves.

Consider some of these facts: The largest archipelago in the world with about 18,000 islands, Indonesia stretches along the equator for more than 5,000 km. Almost 60% of Indonesia’s land is forested and it has more than 500 volcanoes - 12% of which are still active! The fourth most heavily populated country in the world after China, India and the United States with close to 250 million people, comprising some 300 ethnic groups who speak an estimated 600 languages and dialects.

Part 1 Bali - the island of the Gods!

As a first time visitor to Indonesia, I was excited as well as a little nervous. It’s a massive country, spread over thousands of kilometres. So like India, yet so unlike India, with its endless islands forming a chain along the equator.

Indonesia to me was a slightly incomprehensible mix of a remarkably beautiful tropical paradise and danger; with communal troubles and civil disturbances, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, and earthquakes. During our trip we hoped to find a fascinating reality that lay between those two opposing themes.

The excitement stemmed also from the fact that we had a month to spend there exploring these marvellous islands; home to active volcanoes, spectacular beaches and unique wildlife, like the Komodo dragon.

We started our trip in the relative comfort of the well developed tourism infrastructure on the island of Bali. In fact only thing that was difficult was trying to get a reasonably priced flight from New Delhi, as we had left it so late! Everything worked out finally and an uneventful Malaysian airlines flight later through Kuala Lumpur, we landed in Bali at Denpasar airport. The landing was spectacular as the plane comes down close to the white sandy Jimbaran beach; as you fly in, all you can see is the sea coming closer and closer until a few seconds before touch down the runway is suddenly visible.

As Indonesia has recently relaxed its visa regime for Indians, it was possible to get a visa on arrival - as an Indian passport holder, it is still a novel experience to travel to countries and get a visa on arrival! Laos, Thailand, Hong Kong (interestingly enough one needs a visa for China though), Cambodia and Maldives are a few of the others.

It was a hassle free experience and one can straight away see the advantages it brings to tourism and business travel. This is even more important in light of the Indian Tourism Board’s efforts to push a similar proposal through for visitors to India.

Having pre-arranged some budget accommodation in the nearby beach town of Sanur, we hired a taxi to get us there. Bali’s excellent tourism infrastructure made it an easy and painless process, we didn’t even need the Indonesian we had been learning, a language much easier to learn than many.

Bali, appropriately called ‘the island of the gods’ is an excellent example of the religious and cultural diversity which exists in Indonesia, and consists predominantly of Hindu communities. By contrast the island of Java, where the capital Jakarta is located, is predominantly Muslim and the island of Flores (where we headed to later in our trip) is mostly Christian.

The widely spread islands with their mix of peoples, cultures and religions means that Indonesia has faced a similar problem to India in terms of language. Bahasa Indonesia is the national language but interestingly has faced similar challenges in many parts of the country to that with the adoption of Hindi as the national language in India. Indeed in Bali, Balinese is widely spoken.

The Balinese worship the various gods of Hindu mythology and are all as familiar with the Mahabharatha and the Ramayana as many Indians are. Each house is in fact considered a minor temple, adding further to the astounding statistic of some 20,000 temples on this small island of no more than two million people.

Offerings are made twice daily to the gods of the house and to the gods honoured in small shrines everywhere. As you drive around Bali, the sight of women carrying rice-and-flower offerings on banana leaves is common. Indeed, the word Bali, dating from the 9th century, means “offering.”

Sanur - rather unfairly nicknamed ’snore’ by us - was a very sleepy town, that had begun to lose its charm through its efforts to pander to all kinds of tourists. Our sense of discovery, lead us to search for the real Bali and we headed to a small island, Nusa Lembongan, about two hours away by boat.

Nusa Lembongan is one of 3 islands that sit across the Badung Strait on the Southeast coast of Bali along with Nusa Ceningan & Nusa Penida. These 3 islands are somewhat impoverished, relying on seaweed farming, cattle and other low-return activities, with tourism the brightest light on the horizon. The boat ride across the Badung Strait was smooth to begin with, but as we had been warned, the straits are extremely deep and there is always a large swell in the middle -finely illustrated by the teenage girl sitting behind us unable to keep her breakfast away from the fish!

Although we had to get off at the main jetty, we had made up our minds to make our way to Mushroom Bay, an amazing white sand beach which we had spotted from the boat. Getting there meant either taking a small, but expensive, motor boat taxi, or hiking with our heavy back packs up and downhill for a couple of hours.

Of course, having decided on the water taxi option, we couldn’t find one until a booming Australian drawl asked if he could help. Indeed he was the owner of the water taxi company who had been living on Nusa Lembongan for years. Mushroom Bay was every bit as pretty close up and we booked ourselves into some Balinese style lodging for a few nights.

Breakfast by the beach is a luxury for anyone and we certainly indulged at the rather aptly named but predictable Bali Café. There was a sense of exclusivity to Mushroom Bay which was only disturbed at about mid-day for a few hours by day trippers from mainland Bali. We spent that time exploring the island and the first time around decided to do a walking tour. Incredibly greenery, and some stunning beaches, were our reward although after a while the humidity made the walk more of an effort than we would have liked. And, of course, temples and offerings were everywhere.

The next day we decided to explore a bit further by hiring a motor cycle, with my wife bravely (according to her!) agreeing to ride pillion. The roads were not great and extremely steep in places, but off we set off. It is hard to lose one’s way around the island and we made it to the other side of the island, stopping off to admire the views and when stopped by friendly inquisitive children.

Our plan was to visit the other two neighbouring islands, if possible, and were told we could drive our bike across a narrow bridge. The bridge was indeed narrow but what worried us even more was the approach ramp - a small miscalculation of a few inches and the probability was that we would miss the bridge and land in the sea. As not-so-brave adventurers, we decided that I try it alone without my passenger. Success!

Driving through Nusa Ceningan, it was apparent that the island was much poorer than Nusa Lembongnan; the difference was tourism. Residents of Nusa Ceningan survived mostly through sea weed farming and when the trade wasn’t going well they had a difficult life.

We stopped at a site where there were clearly plans to build a resort. Most of the structure and layout were in place, but now had been left to rot. As we were enjoying the views and thinking, how wonderful it would be to resurrect the resort, and would it ever be feasible, a man appeared from behind the buildings and came over. Suddenly worried that we were trespassing and that there was no other soul in sight, we tried to apologise and move away. But he was very friendly and told us about the plans for this place and how it had all gone wrong when his foreign business partner decided to pull out when tourism in Bali went into a tailspin after the bomb attacks several years ago. At last our few phrases of Bahasa Indonesia had come in useful! That, with English and body language had helped us communicate.

Having had a relatively quiet and relaxed introduction to Indonesia we were ready to make our way back to mainland Bali and get intrepid in pursuit of the Komodo dragon and to see whales in the remote village of Lamalera, in one of the eastern most parts of the archipelago.
