Look at the video closely. Gary Vaynerchuk gives it all away here. THIS is how to make your blog or website a huge success.

Enjoy.

Okay. As those who knows me well knows, I’m a guy that gets easily bored. Working with our clints regarding getting them to the top of the search engines for their desired keywords is fine and dandy, but mostly this kind of work is more or less routines - and it’s rather technical. What I have missed in all that is the people-side of things.

So - a while back (a few months) I started playing with Twitter, and later stumbled by Jaiku (now owned by Google). Another service I just started testing out is Pownce. 

The whole point with these social networks is to use them as a simple and quick way to keep your contacts posted about what you are doing, blog posts and ask about their opinions. They are also called mini-blogs because usually they have a limit of 140 letters for each posting. So, in many ways they can be compared to sending a SMS.

I actually like a lot the fact that I only have 140 chars available. It means I have to be to the point right away since it’s so limited what I can actually write there. 

By the way - you will soon enough find it hard to make a descision on what network to consentrate on - so you might want to check out a little piece of software that let’s you post to most of the social networking sites at once. It’s called Posty and is a little AdobeAir application that runs quite smoothly. 

When I have some more experience with all this social network thingie, I’ll make a post about my experiences with it, and how I think it might fit into the marketing mix. So far I like it though.

Dear whoever good at programming widgets for Google Desktop.

I ask you kindly: Could you please make a Jaiku widget for Google Desktop so all the rest of us that hates having to have a program running to use the service can get a good solution?

Please?

Anyone?

Hm. I can’t imagine this has not already been made, so if you know where to get it from please leave a comment with the url. I am dying here..

By the way: Jaiku is now open for public registrations - as of yesterday that is. If you are tired of constantly getting error mesages from Twitter, Jaiku is probably what you want to move on to. I know I have not regreted a second since I left Twitter.

I am most sertainly going to use this theme on this blog, and probably a couple others.

Arthemia is combining a magazine and a weblog into one; it is not too magazine-ish nor too blog-ish. The front page of Arthemia shows the headline and featured post of yours along with the pictorial representation, that’s the magazine style, while the rest of your post will be shows sequentially just like a usual weblog. In the middle of the front page, Arthemia has a nice blue-and-black category bar which will help your readers exploring you site. At the bottom, Arthemia is outfitted with a blog must-have section, a three-list of favorite posts.

One of Devenia’s main markets is the norwegian market. It was really a chock to me to discover that the equilents in norwegian to search engine optimisation .org and .info had net been registered by any of our competitors.

So - naturally I registered both of them right away.

They are søkemotoroptimalisering.org and søkemotoroptimalisering.info

The .info domain will be used as a sales site for Devenia, but the .org domain I am still not sure about. It could lay the grounds for a seo-related forum or something similar.

Any ideas?

The first time I read the following saying it was like a big YES! in my heart. It really represents what I believe in: Being a person that reaches for that little extra to become a better person.

Here goes the saying:

“God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change.
Courage to change the things i can, and wisdom to know the difference.”

September 1. I will be living in Szczecin (Stettin) in Poland and I am looking for someone to play squash or badminton with there a couple times a month or weekly - whatever we figure out.

I am not really “into” sports, but it is nice to play a bit to do something besides working and going out from time to time.

So, it does not really matter what level you are, as long as you find it funny to hit a ball

Contact me here or by SMS if you are interested. I’m sure we’ll figure out where to play.
