essence: none even, no identity, no meme, no beliefs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Any idea of &quot;What is&quot; takes us away from what should be at the moment, all ideas need be gone. There is not even an &quot;I&quot;, the ideas to have.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The natural is acts as a result of the movement of the universe in the same way that an artist is moved by his &quot;universe&quot; brush.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All &quot;lessons&quot;, take &quot;spiritual&quot; paths or &quot;Holy&quot; practices actually us away from the moment because it takes a &quot;Me&quot;, they, with an agenda of whatsoever to win something to do. All of them from the eternal identity-free moment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The only way that the &quot;what is&quot; can be experienced is all traces of losing themselves in this case could not be &quot;What is&quot; experienced because there is no one, to experience it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No description of the State of natural spirit is false - it can not be described and who says you can is something fool themselves and/or - describes, is there an identity, to describe has and if there is to date can be real.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is not even an &quot;ultimate&quot; State to win because the idea that there is takes us away.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All it is, is the process of the universe in its all-ness. There is no such thing as an &quot;enlightened&quot; or &quot;unenlightened&quot;. These are just an idea of what is.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Even &quot;Bliss&quot; or &quot;Transcendence&quot; is a State of mind, a &quot;Me&quot; that these feelings to experience.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thoughts are the glue of our belief structures. &quot;I&quot; is the creation of thoughts and beliefs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What is operated if we think we are good human beings is the operating system of the brain types, demanding meme or belief structures, the content our identities feel itself running.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The only act awareness &quot;can do&quot;, is &quot;Self&quot; awareness release. Awareness, to be fully as, &quot;I&quot; must no attached to it - and then, who understand there?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The natural state is where everything is useful and meaningless – everything is part of the whole and no link in the chain can be more important than the other.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Action and thought from this location, is an immediate, clear response to the call of the moment. It is the moment, the universe acts, not the person.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An absence of agitation is true peace, an absence of self-generated internal activity. So peace can not &quot;done&quot;, or created - there is an absence do. This allows to be authentic &quot;what is ness&quot;. All action from this State is completely harmonious (even if it &quot;out there was someone&quot; to experience the harmony - are not) and no conflict. There is nothing there to conflict with something else.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Is a natural feels the world clean, while a &quot;Me&quot; full of beliefs and ideas of itself, overlays this genuine feelings with external content draw you with emotional &quot;free&quot;. This fee is reactive to create the world around him, constantly conflict as it tries to dispel.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Modern research shows that there is a gap of about half a second between the body/mind of establishing a physical action and our conscious intention to do so.) This indicates that the body/mind instructions, no conscious intention acts according to his conviction. This is &quot;I&quot; just along for the ride – late - while pretending to be responsible.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What&#39;s next from the moment only refers to this moment. It&#39;s already past and how experienced is not existent,. To keep something experienced or said at this moment, to the dead life past.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you can touch it, show it taste has reality? This is not to say it&#39;s not real, but it may not really be. It could be a construct of ideas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What actual or real can only because if all believe all ideas, all thoughts, all traces of identity are verschwunden-, if there no &quot;I&quot; are left to us from the moment take. If the eternal now moment is anything it is, this is the only way to be in it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thought is required only of use if there are certain of the moment for a task for called is. Beyond the specific call of the moment think keeping is the same as your arm over his head constantly to keep or keep your abdominal muscles tense all the time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you took every real current experience of natural is - the fragrance of a flower, a sunset, the death of a friend, a humorous situation, the movement of smoke on the wind - all of these at any moment but with no itself, are not &quot;I&quot;, these things are aware, this is the natural state of mind.&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/feeds/2156169997664285797/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/zen-mind-personal-view.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/2156169997664285797'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/2156169997664285797'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/zen-mind-personal-view.html' title='Zen mind: A personal view'/><author><name>Sancho quijote de la panza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14260444873480936071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4545301710740258012.post-1622915184387894383</id><published>2010-12-27T20:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-27T20:38:00.467-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Analysis"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="CrossCultural"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Understand"/><title type='text'>How: understanding cross-cultural analysis</title><content type='html'>Translate Request has too much data&lt;br /&gt;Parameter name: request&lt;br /&gt;Translate Request has too much data&lt;br /&gt;Parameter name: request&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;p&gt;Cross-cultural analysis could be a very perplexing field to understand with many different viewpoints, aims and concepts. The origins of cross-cultural analysis in the 19th century world of colonialism was strongly grounded in the concept of cultural evolution, which claimed that all societies progress through an identical series of distinct evolutionary stages.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The origin of the word culture comes from the Latin verb colere = &quot;tend, guard, cultivate, till&quot;. This concept is a human construct rather than a product of nature. The use of the English word in the sense of &quot;cultivation through education&quot; is first recorded in 1510. The use of the word to mean &quot;the intellectual side of civilization&quot; is from 1805; that of &quot;collective customs and achievements of a people&quot; is from 1867. The term Culture shock was first used in 1940.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How do we define culture?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are literally hundreds of different definitions as writers have attempted to provide the all-encompassing definition.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Culture consists of language, ideas, beliefs, customs, taboos, codes, institutions, tools, techniques, works of art, rituals, ceremonies and symbols. It has played a crucial role in human evolution, allowing human beings to adapt the environment to their own purposes rather than depend solely on natural selection to achieve adaptive success. Every human society has its own particular culture, or sociocultural system. (Adapted from source: Encyclopaedia Britannica)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Generally culture can be seen as consisting of three elements:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Values&lt;/strong&gt; - Values are ideas that tell what in life is considered important.&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Norms&lt;/strong&gt; - Norms consists of expectations of how people should behave in different situations.&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Artefacts&lt;/strong&gt; - Things or material culture - reflects the culture&#39;s values and norms but are tangible and manufactured by man.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Origins and evolution of Cross-cultural analysis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;The first cross-cultural analyzes done in the West, were by anthropologists like Edward Burnett Tylor and Lewis H Morgan in the 19th century. Anthropology and Social Anthropology have come a long way since the belief in a gradual climb from stages of lower savagery to civilization, epitomized by Victorian England. Nowadays the concept of &quot;culture&quot; is in part a reaction against such earlier Western concepts and anthropologists argue that culture is &quot;human nature,&quot; and that all people have a capacity to classify experiences, encode classifications symbolically and communicate such abstractions to others.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Typically anthropologists and social scientists tend to study people and human behavior among exotic tribes and cultures living in far off places rather than do field work among white-collared literate adults in modern cities. Advances in communication and technology and socio-political changes started transforming the modern workplace yet there were no guidelines based on research to help people interact with other people from other cultures. To address this gap arose the discipline of cross-cultural analysis or cross-cultural communication. The main theories of cross-cultural communication draw from the fields of anthropology, sociology, communication and psychology and are based on value differences among cultures. Edward T. Hall, Geert Hofstede, Fons Trompenaars, Shalom Schwartz and Clifford Geertz are some of the major contributors in this field.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How the social sciences study and analyze culture&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cultural anthropologists focus on symbolic culture whereas archaeologists focus on material and tangible culture. Sociobiologists study instinctive behavior in trying to explain the similarities, rather than the differences between cultures. They believe that human behavior cannot be satisfactorily explained entirely by &#39;cultural&#39;, &#39;environmental&#39; or &#39;ethnic&#39; factors. Some sociobiologists try to understand the many aspects of culture in the light of the concept of the meme, first introduced by Richard Dawkins in his 1976 book The Selfish Gene. Dawkins suggests the existence of units of culture - memes - roughly analogous to genes in evolutionary biology. Although this view has gained some popular currency, other anthropologists generally reject it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Different types of cross-cultural comparison methods&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nowadays there are many types of Cross-cultural comparisons. One method is comparison of case studies. Controlled comparison among variants of a common derivation is another form of comparison. Typically anthropologists and other social scientists favor the third type called Cross-cultural studies, which uses field data from many societies to examine the scope of human behaviour and to test hypotheses about human behavior and culture.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Controlled comparison examines similar characteristics of a few societies while cross-cultural studies uses a sufficiently large sample that statistical analysis can be made to show relationships or lack of relationships between certain traits in question.  The anthropological method of holocultural analysis or worldwide cross-cultural analysis is designed to test or develop a proposition through the statistical analysis of data on a sample of ten or more non literate societies from three or more geographical regions of the world. In this approach, cultural traits are taken out of the context of the whole culture and are compared with cultural traits in widely diverse cultures to determine patterns of regularities and differences within the broad base of the study.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aims of cross-cultural analysis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cross-cultural communication or inter cultural communication looks at how people from different cultural backgrounds try to communicate. It also tries to produce some guidelines, which help people from different cultures to better communicate with each other.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Culture has an interpretative function for the members of a group, which share that particular culture. Although all members of a group or society might share their culture, expressions of culture-resultant behaviour are modified by the individuals&#39; personality, upbringing and life-experience to a considerable degree. Cross-cultural analysis aims at harnessing this utilitarian function of culture as a tool for increasing human adaptation and improving communication.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cross-cultural management is seen as a discipline of international management focusing on cultural encounters, which aims to discover tools to handle cultural differences seen as sources of conflict or miscommunication.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How laypersons see culture&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is a daunting challenge to convey the findings of research and field work and discuss cross-cultural issues in diverse contexts such as corporate culture, workplace culture and inter cultural competency as laypeople tend to use the word &#39;culture&#39; to refer to something refined, artistic and exclusive to a certain group of &quot;artists&quot; who function in a separate sphere than ordinary people in the workplace. Some typical allusions to culture:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br&gt;Culture is the section in the newspaper where they review theatre, dance performances or write book reviews etc. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Culture is what parents teach their kids and grandparents teach their grandchildren.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;You don&#39;t have any culture,&quot; is what people say to you when you put your feet on the table at lunchtime or spit in front of guests.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&quot;They just have a different culture,&quot; people say about those whose behaviour they don&#39;t understand but have to tolerate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;Different models of cross-cultural analysis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are many models of cross-cultural analysis currently valid. The &#39;Iceberg&#39; and the &#39;Onion&#39; models are widely known. The popular &#39;Iceberg model&#39; of culture developed by Selfridge and Sokolik, 1975 and W.L. French and C.H. Bell in 1979, identifies a visible area consisting of behaviour or clothing or symbols and artifacts of some form and a level of values or an invisible level.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Trying to define as complex a phenomenon as culture with just two layers proved quite a challenge and the &#39;Onion&#39; model arose. Geert Hofstede (1991) proposed a set of four layers, each of which includes the lower level or is a result of the lower level. According to this view, &#39;culture&#39; is like an onion that can be peeled, layer-by layer to reveal the content. Hofstede sees culture as &quot;the collective programming of the mind which distinguishes the members of one group or category of people from another.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cross-cultural analysis often plots &#39;dimensions&#39; such as orientation to time, space, communication, competitiveness, power etc., as complimentary pairs of attributes and different cultures are positioned in a continuum between these.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hofstede dimensions to distinguish between cultures&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The five dimensions Hofstede uses to distinguish between national cultures are:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Power distance&lt;/strong&gt;, which measures the extent to which members of society accept how power is distributed unequally in that society.&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Individualism&lt;/strong&gt; tells how people look after themselves and their immediate family only in contrast with &lt;strong&gt;Collectivism&lt;/strong&gt;, where people belong to in-groups (families, clans or organizations) who look after them in exchange for loyalty.&lt;br /&gt;    The dominant values of &lt;strong&gt;Masculinity&lt;/strong&gt;, focussing on achievement and material success are contrasted with those of &lt;strong&gt;Femininity&lt;/strong&gt;, which focus on caring for others and quality of life.&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;U&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ncertainty avoidance &lt;/strong&gt;measures the extent to which people feel threatened by uncertainty and ambiguity and try to avoid these situations.&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Confucian dynamism&lt;/strong&gt;. This &lt;strong&gt;Long-term &lt;/strong&gt;versus&lt;strong&gt; Short-term Orientation&lt;/strong&gt; measured the fostering of virtues related to the past, i.e., respect for tradition, importance of keeping face and thrift.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Trompenaars dimensions to distinguish between cultures&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;Trompenaars and Hampden-Turner (1997) adopt a similar onion-like model of culture. However, their model expands the core level of the very basic two-layered model, rather than the outer level. In their view, culture is made up of basic assumptions at the core level. These &#39;basic assumptions&#39; are somewhat similar to &#39;values&#39; in the Hofstede model.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Trompenaars and Charles Hampden-Turner use seven dimensions for their model of culture:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Universalism vs Particularism&lt;/strong&gt; (what is more important - rules or relationships?)&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Individualism vs Communitarianism&lt;/strong&gt; (do we function in a group or as an individual?)&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Neutral vs Emotional&lt;/strong&gt; (do we display our emotions or keep them in check?)&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Specific vs Diffuse&lt;/strong&gt; (how far do we get involved?)&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Achievement vs Ascription&lt;/strong&gt; (do we have to prove ourselves to gain status or is it given to us just because we are a part of a structure?)&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Attitude to Time&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;Past- / present- / future-orientatedness&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sequential time vs Synchronic time(do we do things one at a time or several things at once?)&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Internal &lt;/strong&gt;vs &lt;strong&gt;External Orientation &lt;/strong&gt;(do we aim to control our environment or cooperate with it?)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;p&gt;Criticism of current models&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;One of the weaknesses of cross-cultural analysis has been the inability to transcend the tendency to equalize culture with the concept of the nation state. A nation state is a political unit consisting of an autonomous state inhabited predominantly by a people sharing a common culture, history, and language or languages. In real life, cultures do not have strict physical boundaries and borders like nation states. Its expression and even core beliefs can assume many permutations and combinations as we move across distances.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is some criticism in the field that this approach is out of phase with global business today, with transnational companies facing the challenges of the management of global knowledge networks and multicultural project teams, interacting and collaborating across boundaries using new communication technologies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some writers like Nigel Holden (2001) suggest an alternative approach, which acknowledges the growing complexity of inter- and intra-organizational connections and identities, and offers theoretical concepts to think about organizations and multiple cultures in a globalizing business context.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In spite of all the shortcomings and criticisms faced by the Hofstede model, it is very much favoured by trainers and researchers. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, it is a wonderful and easy to use tool to quantify cultural differences so that they can be discussed. Discussing and debating differences is after all the main method of training and learning. Secondly, Hofstede&#39;s research at IBM was conducted in the workplace, so Hofstede tools brings cross-cultural analysis closer to the business side of the workplace, away from anthropology, which is a matter for universities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bibliography and suggested reading:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dawkins, Richard (1976).

Z list is an effective solution to meet these concerns.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is Z list?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Z list is a concept in December 2006 by Mack Collier, A viral garden as a meme started. A meme is a &quot;unit of cultural information&quot; that analog can propagate other spirit one in a manner to genes. The Z list is a blog meme that create blogger and many links to blogs in a single post has a list sharing. This list will have called Z list, because this is a list of blogs the need for A-list of blogs of exposure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How help Z list can be set?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Search engines like Google, Technorati, etc. have a democratic system of ranking your blog / website. The number of other websites / blogs link to your blog / website is taken into account when assigning a PageRank to your website / blog. Therefore, if link of your blog / website, a Z list is up on a bunch of other sites published number of blogs / websites that is links to your blog and helps to improve the page rank of your blog. Secondly the webmaster of the blogs contained in the Z list on your site can see who is who want to link to your blog and can visit your Web site, request a backlink, leave a comment and even your RSS feed can subscribe to if you are interested to get your content. This helps to increase the traffic to your site.&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;To get more details about the Z list please visit [http://www.info4beingrich.blogspot.com]&lt;/p&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;										</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/feeds/5867851677408574005/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/improve-your-blog-page-rank-with-z-list.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/5867851677408574005'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/5867851677408574005'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/improve-your-blog-page-rank-with-z-list.html' title='Improve your blog page rank with Z list'/><author><name>Sancho quijote de la panza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14260444873480936071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4545301710740258012.post-9002879524265675841</id><published>2010-12-27T02:08:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-27T02:08:00.287-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Build"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Different"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Popularity"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Strategies"/><title type='text'>To create 101 different strategies to link popularity</title><content type='html'>Translate Request has too much data&lt;br /&gt;Parameter name: request&lt;br /&gt;Translate Request has too much data&lt;br /&gt;Parameter name: request&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;p&gt;Link Building... Time-intensive. Frustrating. Sometimes confusing. Yet Unavoidable. Because ultimately, it&#39;s still the trump card for higher rankings.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Many of us have been hoping that it would go away. In Brett Tabke&#39;s 5/18 Robots.txt entry, he echoed a sentiment that many, many webmasters hold on to as a hope:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What happens to all those Wavers that think [ i ]Getting Links = SEO[ /i ] when that majority of the Google algo is devalued in various ways? Wavers built their fortunes on &quot;links=seo&quot;. When that goes away, the Wavers have zero to hold on to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;The pertinent questions:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Will link building still be very important for rankings in the medium term? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;When will link popularity be devalued in favor of other algo elements (that are less tedious, from a webmaster&#39;s point of view)? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;The answers:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sorry, but link building is still going to be the SEO trump card for the foreseeable future. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;I wouldn&#39;t hold your breath for search engine algorithms to place less importance on link popularity until the Semantic Web arrives, or maybe when HTTP gets replaced by a new protocol. Because links are still the basic connector, the basic relationship, on the Web. And for the forseeable future they&#39;re going to be the easiest way for a computer program to judge the importance and trustworthiness of a Web page.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What will happen to the way search algorithms score links is already happening. The Google algo has become much more elegant and advanced, devaluing staggering amount of links that shouldn&#39;t count, and placing more emphasis on trusted links. And the trust and juice given by those links is then verified by elements like user data, domain age, and other relatively hard-to-spoof factors.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But please, don&#39;t fool yourself. Links that should count are still the key to rankings (in Google, at least -- and MSN and Yahoo! are only a few short years behind). In that spirit, Aaron and I have created our 101 Ways to Build (and Not Build) Links in 2006. (Yeah, it just so happened that there were exactly 101!)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh, and mad props to our inspiration, 131 Legitimate Link Building Strategies, one of the original authority documents on link building. It was just getting a bit rusty, that&#39;s all (&quot;Host your own Web Ring&quot;?). Anyway, enjoy the update. It&#39;s guaranteed to be accurate until January 1, 2007. ;-)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;71 Good Ways to Build Links&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;Love for Lists&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. Build a &quot;101 list&quot;. These get Dugg all the time, and often become &quot;authority documents&quot;. People can&#39;t resist linking to these (hint, hint).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2. Create 10 easy tips to help you [insert topic here] articles. Again, these are exceptionally easy to link to.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3. Create extensive resource lists for a specific topic (see Mr Ploppy for inspiration).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4. Create a list of the top 10 myths for a specific category.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5. Create a list of gurus/experts. If you impress the people listed well enough, or find a way to make your project look somewhat official, the gurus may end up linking to your site or saying thanks. (Sometimes flattery is the easiest way to strike up a good relationship with an &quot;authority&quot;.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Developing Authority &amp; Being Easy to Link At&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;6. Make your content easy to understand so many people can understand and spread your message. (It&#39;s an accessibility thing.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7. Put some effort in to minimize grammatical or spelling errors, especially if you need authoritative people like librarians to link to your site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;8. Have an easily accessible privacy policy and about section so your site seems more trustworthy. Including a picture of yourself may also help build your authority.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;PPC as a Link Building Tool&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;9. Buy relevant traffic with a pay per click campaign. Relevant traffic will get your site more visitors and brand exposure. When people come to your site, regardless of the channel in which they found it, there is a possibility that they will link to you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;News &amp; Syndication&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;10. Syndicate an article at EzineArticles, GoArticles, iSnare, etc. The great thing about good article sites is that their article pages actually rank highly and send highly qualified traffic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;11. Submit an article to industry news site. Have an SEO site? Write an article and submit to WebProNews. Have a site about BLANK? Submit to BLANKinformationalsite.com.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;12. Syndicate a press release. Take the time to make it GOOD (compelling, newsworthy). Email it to some handpicked journalists and bloggers. Personalize the email message. For good measure, submit it to PRWeb, PRLeap, etc.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;13. Track who picks up your articles or press releases. Offer them exclusive news or content.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;14. Trade articles with other webmasters.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;15. Email a few friends when you have important relevant news asking them for their feedback and/or if they would mind referencing it if they find your information useful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;16. Write about, and link to, companies with &quot;in the news&quot; pages. They link back to stories and blog posts which cover their developments. This is obviously easiest if you have a news section or blog. Do a Google search for [your industry + &quot;in the news&quot;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;17. Perform surveys and studies that make people feel important. If you can make other people feel important they will help do your marketing for you for free. Salary.com did a study on how underpaid mothers were, and they got many high quality links.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Directories, Meme Trackers &amp; Social Bookmarking&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;18. This tip is an oldie but goodie: submit your site to DMOZ and other directories that allow free submissions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;19. Submit your site to paid directories. Another oldie. Just remember that quality matters.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;20. Create your own topical directory about your field of interest. Obviously link to your own site, deeplinking to important content where possible. Of course, if you make it into a truly useful resource, it will attract links on its own.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;21. Tag related sites on sites like Del.icio.us. If people find the sites you tag to be interesting, emotionally engaging, or timely they may follow the trail back to your site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;22. If you create something that is of great quality make sure you ask a few friends to tag it for you. If your site gets on the front page of Digg or on the Del.icio.us popular list, hundreds more bloggers will see your site, and potentially link to it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;23. Look at meme trackers to see what ideas are spreading. If you write about popular spreading ideas with plenty of original content (and link to some of the original resources), your site may get listed as a source on the meme tracker site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Local &amp; Business Links&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;24. Join the Better Business Bureau.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;25. Get a link from your local chamber of commerce.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;26. Submit your link to relevant city and state governmental resources. (Easier in some countries than in others.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;27. List your site at the local library&#39;s Web site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;28. See if your manufacturers or retailers or other business partners might be willing to link to your site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;29. Develop business relationships with non-competing businesses in the same field. Leverage these relationships online and off, by recommending each other via links and distributing each other&#39;s business cards.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;30. Launch an affiliate program. Most of the links you pick up will not have SEO value, but the added exposure will almost always lead to additional &quot;normal&quot; links.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Easy Free Links&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;31. Depending on your category and offer, you will find Craigslist to be a cheap or free classified service.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;32. It is pretty easy to ask or answer questions on Yahoo! Answers and provide links to relevant resources.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;33. It is pretty easy to ask or answer questions on Google Groups and provide links to relevant resources.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;34. If you run a fairly reputable company, create a page about it in the Wikipedia or in topic specific wikis. If it is hard to list your site directly, try to add links to other pages that link to your site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;35. It takes about 15 minutes to set up a topical Squidoo page, which you can use to look like an industry expert. Link to expert documents and popular useful tools in your fields, and also create a link back to your site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;36. Submit a story to Digg that links to an article on your site. You can also submit other content and have some of its link authority flow back to your profile page.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;37. If you publish an RSS feed and your content is useful and regularly updated, some people will syndicate your RSS content (and some of those will provide links... unfortunately, some will not).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;38. Most forums allow members to leave signature links or personal profile links. If you make quality contributions some people will follow these links and potentially read your site, link at your site, and/or buy your products.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Have a Big Heart for Reviews&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;39. Most brands are not well established online, so if your site has much authority, your review related content often ranks well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;40. Review relevant products on Amazon.com. We have seen this draw in direct customer enquiries and secondary links.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;41. Create product lists on Amazon.com that review top products and also mention your background (LINK!).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;42. Review related sites on Alexa to draw in related traffic streams.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;43. Review products and services on shopping search engines like ePinions to help build your authority.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;44. If you buy a product or service you really like and are good at leaving testimonials, many of those turn into links. Two testimonial writing tips -- make them believable, and be specific where possible.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Blogs &amp; the Blogosphere&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;45. Start a blog. Not just for the sake of having one. Post regularly and post great content. Good execution is what gets the links.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;46. Link to other blogs from your blog. Outbound links are one of the cheapest forms of marketing available. Many bloggers also track who is linking to them or where their traffic comes from, so linking to them is an easy way to get noticed by some of them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;47. Comment on other blogs. Most of these comments will not provide much direct search engine value, but if your comments are useful, insightful, and relevant they can drive direct traffic. They also help make the other bloggers become aware of you, and they may start reading your blog and/or linking to it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;48. Technorati tag pages rank well in Yahoo! and MSN, and to a lesser extent in Google. Even if your blog is fairly new you can have your posts featured on the Technorati tag pages by tagging your posts with relevant tags.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;49. If you create a blog make sure you list it in a few of the best blog directories.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Design as a Linking Element&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;50. Web 2.0-ify your site. People love to link to anything with AJAX. Even in the narrowest of niches, there is some kind of useful functionality you can build with AJAX.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;51. Validate and 508 your site. This (indirect) method makes your site more trustworthy and linkable, especially from governmental sites or design-oriented communities. There are even a few authoritative directories of standards-compliant sites.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;52. Order a beautiful CSS redesign. A nice design can get links from sites like CSS Vault.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hire Help&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;53. Hire a publicist. Good old fashioned &#39;PR&#39; (not PageRank) can still work wonders. Andy Hagans now offers a link baiting publicity service.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;54. Hire a consultant. Yes, you can outsource link building. Just make sure to go with someone good. We recommend WeBuildPages, Debra Mastaler and, ahem, Andy Hagans.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Link Trading&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;55. Swap some links. What?! Did we really just recommend reciprocal link building? Yes, on a small scale, and with relevant partners that will send you traffic. Stay away from the link trading hubs and networks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;56. In case you didn&#39;t get the memo -- when swapping links, try to get links from within the content of relevant content pages. Do not try to get links from pages that list hundreds of off topic link partners. Only seek link exchanges that you would consider pursuing even if search engines did not exist. Instead of thinking just about your topic when exchanging links, think about demographic audience sets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Buying Sites, Renting Links &amp; Advertisements&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;57. Rent some high quality links from a broker. Text Link Ads is the most reputable firm in this niche.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;58. Rent some high quality links directly from Web sites. Sometimes the most powerful rented links come direct from sites not actively renting links.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;59. Become a sponsor. All sorts of charities, contests, and conferences link to their sponsors. This can be a great way to gain visibility, links, and a warm feeling in your heart.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;60. Sell items on eBay and offer to donate the profits to a charity. Many charities will link both to the eBay auction and to your site.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;61. Many search algorithms seem biased toward older established sites. It may be faster to buy an old site with a strong link profile, and link it to your own site, than to try to start building authority links from scratch.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Use the Courts (Proceed with Caution)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;62. Sue Google.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;63. Get sued by a company people hate. When Aaron was sued by Traffic Power, he got hundreds or thousands of links, including links from sites like Wired and The Wall Street Journal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Freebies &amp; Giveaways&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;64. Hold a contest. Contests make great link bait. A few-hundred-dollar prize can result in thousands of dollars worth of editorial quality links. Enough said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;65. Build a tool collection. Original and useful tools (and collections of tools) get a lot of link love. What do you think ranking for &quot;mortgage calculator&quot; is worth?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;66. Create and release open source site design templates for content management systems like Wordpress. Don&#39;t forget the &quot;Designed by example.com&quot; bit in the footer!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;67. Offer free samples in exchange for feedback.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;68. Release a Firefox extension. Make sure you have a download and/or support page on your site which people can link to.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Conferences &amp; Social Interaction&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;69. It is easy to take pictures of important events and tell narratives about why they are important. Pictures of (drunk?) &quot;celebrities&quot; in your industry make great link bait.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;70. Leverage new real world relationships into linking relationships. If you go to SEO related conferences, people like Tim Mayer, Matt Cutts, and Danny Sullivan are readily accessible. Similarly, in other industries, people who would normally seem inaccessible are exceptionally accessible at trade conferences. It is much easier to seem &quot;real&quot; in person. Once you create social relationships in person, it is easy to extend that onto the web.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;71. Engaging, useful, and interesting interviews are an easy way to create original content. And they spread like wildfire.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;30 Bad Ways to Build Links&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;Here are a few link buiding methods that may destroy your brand or get your site banned/penalized/filtered from major search engines, or both.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Directories&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;72. Submit your site to 200 cheesy paid directories (averaging $15 a pop) that send zero traffic and sell offtopic run-of-site links.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Forum Spam&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;73. List 100 Web sites in your signature file.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;74. Exclusively post only when you can add links to your sites in the post area.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;75. Post nothing but &quot;me too&quot; posts to build your post count. Use in combination with a link-rich signature file.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;76. Ask questions about who provides the best [WIDGET], where [WIDGET] is an item that you sell. From the same IP address create another forum account and answer your own question raving about how great your own site is.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;77. As a new member to various forums, ask the same question at 20 different forums on the same day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;78. Post on forum threads that are years outdated exclusively to link to your semi-related website.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;79. Sign up for profiles on forums you never intend on commenting on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Blog Spam&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;80. Instead of signing blog comments with your real name, sign them with spammy keywords.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;81. Start marketing your own site hard on your first blog comment. Add no value to the comment section. Mention nothing other than you recently posted on the same subject at _____ and everyone should read it. Carpet bomb dozens of blogs with this message.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;82. Say nothing unique or relevant to the post at hand. Make them assume an automated bot hit their comments.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;83. Better yet, use automated bots to hit their comments. List at least 30 links in each post. Try to see if you can hit any servers hard enough to make them crash.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;84. Send pings to everyone talking about a subject. In your aggregation post, state nothing of interest. Only state that other people are talking about the topic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;85. Don&#39;t even link to any of the sites you are pinging. Send them pings from posts that do not even reference them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Garbage Link Exchanges&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;86. Send out link exchange requests mentioning PageRank.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;87. Send link exchange emails which look like an automated bot sent them (little or no customization, no personal names, etc.).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;88.

Get links from nearly-hidden sections of websites listing hundreds or thousands of off topic sites.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Spam People in Person&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;90. Go to webmaster conferences and rave about how rich you are, and how your affiliates make millions doing nothing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;91. Instead of asking people what their name is, ask what their URL is.

Send a webmaster an alert to every post you make on your website.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;93. Send a webmaster an email every single day asking for them to link to your website.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;94. Send references to your site to the same webmaster from dozens of different email accounts (you sly dog).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;95. If the above do not work to get you a free link, offer them $1 for their time.

Understanding can your company increase</title><content type='html'>&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;p&gt;Earlier today I was checking out my friends status on Facebook, if I click on a post by one of my friends closer random. He has released search a video about the group &quot;Answers in Genesis&quot; status re posted after tax. Now, whether you with this agreement is not the point, the point is that he re-it posted and although I know he believes does not agree with this in creation, he unwittingly transported one against view on Facebook.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Companies must on Facebook... PERIOD!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the last few months Facebook has beat Google as the number of visitors. Facebook is has changed how Facebook and way # 2 ranked website in the world and the new method of marketing, to talk about the company for your customers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why should you put your business on Facebook? If the two above examples sufficient&#39;s here another one.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Most people go when you find that opened a new business or online come to Facebook, check your network and see if it bad press about you. Your future customers will tell you (and your friends) If you like, what you have to sell or promote, whether you&#39;re on Facebook, or not. Facebook offers a &quot;presence&quot; and what is a way to even more important to have a direct conversation with your customer base.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ok... Is this old news, right? Well, it&#39;s a new twist on it. Bring to the &quot;meme&quot;! What is a meme? Chances are you know what you are, but still not up now you consciously been made.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Richard Dawkins first used the word in his book &quot;The Selfish Gene&quot;. Basically, a meme is a self-replicating ideas created by melodies, technology, catch-phrases and the like.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What does this so, have, with my business to do on Facebook?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the first paragraph, my friend had introduced a meme to it via the link. The meme triggered a response (humor) and my buddy like spread humor, and he did to his hundreds of friends. Memes are good if you distribute and Facebook is to spread the Queen Mother memes. These small &quot;mind viruses&quot; can be created, how do companies through their marketing campaigns.  When you start to spread good, positive memes to get better on the social network of # 1.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Through my friends single post he spread an idea and an organization the he even believe that more than seven hundred people and those people who probably can contain thousands of people on your Facebook profile to your networks, the hundreds, if not, booked you get the idea.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can accept the change, you can prosper business. Social networks are not a fad, and they are not removed. If you are building a relationship with your customers on Facebook, you are at risk on the cutting edge of extinction.&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;By fired from my job more than 5 years and in the amount of the bad economy, I said &quot;enough is enough!&quot; I started career on my consulting on the same day... two days before my birthday, I might add.

Sex has nothing to do with success and happiness. So whether you&#39;re male or female, the balance between the male and the female energy in you is a key component to the holistic success.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A cultural memes existed for many years either creates a female or male definition of success. Therefore, we have an old locked paradigm, the only definition of success is an achievement in terms of measurable, material. This action caused a falling in love with the future and a resentment against the now. (Called resentment disregard or lack of appreciation.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then, it&#39;s a revolutionary group, are obsessed with the female side (luck in the now), the upset of the male (objectives and drive for the future) have become.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, by releasing the control of our ego masking, getting back to our natural balance both masculine (destroy the present future - objectives drive and inspiration to create) and the female (happiness, satisfaction, appreciation for now). This is the natural cycle, we develop on the border between the male and the female. Between the celebration of the now and the INSPIRATION of the future. This is how we achieve holistic success. Balanced success.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Therefore hesitate so important for success. We are obsessed with the male, performance, and lose the beauty of life. With this model of life nothing met and we are prone to depression. Remembering that depression in the can now exist. Depression is present in its root, because what we have and what we want are different. In the now are the same what we want and what we have.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Motivate healthy success needs therefore to hesitate a balance and inspiration. The quality is the reluctance of crucial importance, because if we hesitate and sit there, moan about what life should be, would be happening as if..., then it is not to hesitate. It is the depreciation. Hesitation with health we must sit in appreciation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have worked with many people who meditate on a daily basis. The whole art of meditation is to come from the future and in the now. Eastern art of meditation are fantastic process for hesitate, but their teachings in the West are cumbersome and time consuming. Sitting in meditation, want for anything is at all not meditation is depression. This is one of the reasons people away from it, shy, because it is so poorly informed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Eastern meditation has by Western teachers and teachers the old meme life success fit distorted been. You say &quot;meditate so you can receive, achieve something, something, achieve whatsoever.&quot; The entire Foundation of a brilliant science of Eastern philosophy was damaged in a part of a masculine paradigm, and that means &quot;to be happy must reach.&quot; It is only half right. Happy to have you both to achieve and cannot be achieved.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How many people teach meditation properly in the West? Find the answer to the meditation brochures, in your local area. Each meditation that promises a result is not meditation, it is something else. Feed ambition, teachers will promote a result meditation. Less stress, more this, less that - automatically revealed your ignorance. Meditation is to hesitate and hesitation comes from empty.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Be really fully in life, we need this balance of performance and empty. This is hesitation a space where life just is what it is and we are happy about it. Thankful. It is a counterweight to the half term, the Western masculine perception of &quot;reach to get.&quot; Want to keep all your life, by some secret paradigm that keeps you from happiness to live? This is so unbalanced as the Eastern philosophy of &quot;sitting on a cushion life to enjoy.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Real chaos comes when we need a balance of the reluctant but sit in meditation that are achieving &quot;Stresslessness&quot; want or being in a relationship, love, or play with your kids to reach family, working in the Office to achieve reach money, it&#39;s a hidden paradigm that can keep us really sick, unbalanced and anxious.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mediocrity is terrible. A celebration of the feminine nor masculine in all of us. It&#39;s like beige. A nothing space: boredom. It is not in the NOW or inspired by the future and this is the sad mediocrity of average life happy. No wonder people are looking for substitutes. The West is obsessed with performance, in the East is now obsessed and the advanced person you need both to be owned, rather than dilute in a hybrid, impossible, where.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A major challenge is the mediocrity of the mass consciousness to avoid maintaining or have the need for people. For most people, life is like a tight rope and offered when a 6 lane motorway instead of the rope, take it. This is GOT TO and should be thinking. Don&#39;t blame them. It is of course want to safety but we can be also wise and see the mass of consciousness creates all problems such as depression, violence, fear and uncertainty come join the mediocrity of the highway from the choices people make. To stay in employment relationships that are not inspiring or happy you hate.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Success is a balance between now and the future. Mediocrity, created mediocrity in the other. Brilliance in one, create brilliance in the other. More can embrace your feminine side and celebrate this now for what you have, the more inspired by the future, be grateful.&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;Chris Walker - &lt;a target=&quot;_new&quot; href=&quot;http://www.chriswalker.com.au&quot;&gt;http://www.chriswalker.com.au&lt;/a&gt; - Chris Walker is a man who knows about life.

Line 2, position 8658.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;p&gt;Digital gear is getting cheaper, smaller and better all the time, from cameras and MP3 players to the latest little netbooks and GPS units. Every gadget and gee-gaw has its obvious function, but it&#39;s in the not-so-obvious combinations of these new technologies that we find the excitement and eternal newness that we seem to crave. We also find some real silly ideas, along with good ones that we grow tired of, so there is a constant influx of &quot;new and improved.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For instance, Chrysler says that it will start a build-to-order program in 2009, for 2010 models, offering a 3G-to-Wi-Fi device that will let you cruise the highway and surf the net at the same time. Drivers can use voice commands to perform common functions wired into the auto systems, while passengers can link up to cyberspace with any Wi-Fi-capable PDA, iPod, computer or other high-tech doohickey. Think of all the combinations possible with all these devices.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Still, one of the more intriguing possibilities combines a losing idea of Bill Gates&#39; that no one even talks about anymore. He first brought it up in the mid-1990s, but it was quickly laughed away. However, the jabbermeisters of the Internet are starting to percolate on the subject again, since it is apparent that Microsoft &quot;researchers&quot; never stopped working on it up there in the Pacific Northwest.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The following was posted this past April on Splashdot.ord (&quot;News for nerds, stuff that matters&quot;):&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Microsoft researchers are developing a way to enable you to capture every moment of your life and store it on your computer. The principal researcher with Microsoft&#39;s research arm, Gordon Bell, is developing a way for everyone to remember those special moments. The nine-year project, called MyLifeBits, has Bell supplementing his own memory by collecting as much information as he can about his life. He&#39;s trying to store a lifetime on his laptop. He&#39;s gone on to collect images of every Web page he&#39;s ever visited, television shows he&#39;s watched, recorded phone conversations, and images and audio from conference sessions, along with his e-mail and instant messages. Calculating that he saves about a gigabyte of information every month, he noted that he tries to only save photos of a megabyte or less. Bell figures one could store everything about his life, from start to finish, using a terabyte of storage.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Six months of replies and ripostes has created a very entertaining web page, and all of the objections that could be raised against this, well, &quot;totalizing&quot; notion probably have been raised. Number crunchers dispute the storage calculation, while privacy advocates had a score of targets among those few hundred words. Yet this kind of thinking should concern everyone, because the relentless march of progress will make the equipment needed to pull off a MyLifeBits-type operation, like all digital toys and tools, cheaper, smaller and better as time passes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Completing the circle No, the article didn&#39;t get off track. It just took a while to get around the subject&#39;s ever-widening circle. Remember the new Chrysler options, the roving Wi-Fi and the voice-commanded, total-digitized multimedia experience? Now consider, too, that you will be able to outfit your car with a back-up camera from the option list - and if the car companies don&#39;t add a camera up front for you, you can just get the Voyager Pro and record video, time and GPS location to an SD card (with capacities up to 8GB and 16GB, depending on whether you use the SD or SDHC format).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, let&#39;s add it all up. With off-the-shelf tech gear, and build-to-order components from the car manufacturer, you can record everything you do in or out of your car. But I can hear some of you asking, Why not just say you can record your whole day and be done with it, what&#39;s this about the car?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The car is the Trojan Horse. Car cams are the way to make this kind of activity acceptable. Look at the history of vehicle video, as a subset of the history of video security and video surveillance: As soon as the technology got cheap enough, video cameras started being installed in police cars. They have proven invaluable, and not just in apprehending drug runners on I-95 in Florida or coyotes careening through the desert with a pickup bed full of day laborers. The recordings have also nailed cops in the act of brutalizing women drivers and tipping over soda machines.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ways and memes So we may know how this meme, this new and almost subconscious cultural acceptance of &quot;a recorded life,&quot; propagates. First it&#39;s in the cars, then everywhere else. Let&#39;s step back and think where this could lead. The first thing you should consider, which is actually one of the things most people never consider at all, is how easy it is to edit, delete, add to, subtract from or otherwise alter a digital video file, with or without audio. An artsy-techie geek (may I coin an acronym here, ATG?) can, without too much trouble, show you crashing your 1998 Jeep Cherokee into the side of the Pentagon. And hey, isn&#39;t that Dick Cheney riding shotgun?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Computer forensics being what it is - a new discipline whose good guys have to learn some dirty doggone stuff to be leading edge - there is just no way that the average person will be able to authenticate a digital pic or video clip. The trust level, initially, will be nil, nada, zero, zip and fuggedabowdit. And that&#39;s not all, of course. The quirky nature of the enterprise suggests a boatload of lawsuits - curious, spurious and no doubt furious, as well - over copyrights, trademark infringement, invasion of privacy and (naturally) discrimination, sexual harassment and racism.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chinese Menu Gadget Development All of these things happen. Every bad thing that can occur in the world, does. Of course there are people who videotape movies in the theater, use ethnic slurs, peek up women&#39;s dresses and don&#39;t return wallets they find on the bus. They are going to have a lot of editing to do, unless they get the &quot;voice-command option&quot; and walk around all day half-barking &quot;Start!&quot; and &quot;Stop!&quot; orders to their shirt-button zoom-lens recorders.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In fact, this may be just Chinese Menu Gadget Development at work once again. Some of these technology combinations may just be solutions in search of very specific (picayune?) problems, while others are just downright silly. There may be some use for front- and rear-facing cameras in autos, inasmuch as providing additional viewing capability to a driver is a good thing. You may even have a good reason, from time to time, to record the images being captured by one or both cameras.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You also may be well served from time to time by a portable videorecorder, but not necessarily a tiny spycam on your baseball cap or behind your second shirt button. And you certainly don&#39;t need one that&#39;s always on. And that&#39;s because, you see, most of what happens in our lives is routine, uneventful, mundane, even silly and pointless - hardly the sort of material most people want to memorialize. Think of it this way: When everyone in class gets an &quot;A&quot; there is no more better, worse, average or &quot;needs improvement&quot;; when everyone is an &quot;honored student&quot; at Podunk Middle School you can bet there are no real &quot;honor students&quot; there; and if everything is accorded the status of a recorded &quot;life highlight,&quot; then, of course, there are no highlights. In this milieu there is nothing special, period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The default position There are five or six more articles brewing to take care of all the tangents leading off from this one. We&#39;ve just barely touched on the legal issues involved, and had room for only brief mentions of the political, psychological, emotional and technological facets of the issue. Yet we can still come to one important conclusion here, and that concerns the &quot;default position&quot; that we would assign to such devices as we use for video security, video surveillance, self-defense, property protection and even personal picture taking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since most of our day is pedestrian stuff; since most of what we say is not the least bit memorable; since we already know what the hallway from the bedroom to the living room looks like; and since it doesn&#39;t take much effort in the age of cellphone cameras and $9 one-use videocams to snap a pic or shoot a video of something really special - for all these reasons and so many more, dear reader, the default position for any sort of MyLifeBits unit should be &quot;off.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;By Scott McQuarrie, representing the EZWatch Pro brand, a leading provider of computer based &lt;a target=&quot;_new&quot; href=&quot;http://www.ezwatch-security-cameras.com&quot;&gt;Security Cameras&lt;/a&gt; for business, commercial and government applications.&lt;/p&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;										</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/feeds/8455538688260194098/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/techno-narcissism-life-in.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/8455538688260194098'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/8455538688260194098'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/techno-narcissism-life-in.html' title='Techno narcissism - life in &amp;quot;Shooting&amp;quot;'/><author><name>Sancho quijote de la panza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14260444873480936071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4545301710740258012.post-8133798018365705889</id><published>2010-12-25T16:08:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-25T16:08:00.117-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Point"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Ringtones"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Whats"/><title type='text'>Ring tones: What&amp;#39;s the point?</title><content type='html'>&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;p&gt;A quick Google search will produce countless articles trying to understand the&lt;br&gt;Popularity of &#39;Ringtones&#39;; Hundreds of bloggers, who grow the lyrical about the benefits&lt;br&gt;Personalize their mobile phones. Interviews with &quot;Experts&quot; Profering sexy theories&lt;br&gt;about ringtones and identity construction lend an academic seriousness, the&lt;br&gt;Crazy frog phenomena. The numbers are pretty seriously to in the United States alone, the&lt;br&gt;Yankee Group ringtones will be forecast, millions worth $500. This is about the&lt;br&gt;GDP of Fiji.&lt;br&gt;Obviously needs a voice our cell phones but needs that voice to a&lt;br&gt;polyphonic adaptation of &quot;living on a prayer&quot;?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The latest figures indicate that young people the biggest consumers of mobile&lt;br&gt;Music. According to a survey of UK account 15-24 year of olds 80% the ringtone&lt;br&gt;Expenditure. Studies by Nick Anderson of Sussex University show that young people&lt;br&gt;are far more aware of the &quot;personal brand&quot; (attached to the given identity)&lt;br&gt;(certain brands) than the older generations. Anderson suggests that young people can&lt;br&gt;Deriving from an individual character, likes and dislikes by their branded properties.&lt;br&gt;Considering the amount of branding in the music industry, it is not unreasonable to&lt;br&gt;You say that popular musicians have their own &quot;brand personality&quot;.  So, your 50 cents&lt;br&gt;Ring tone, for example, not only one communicates your taste in the music, but also your&lt;br&gt;Compliance with the whole &#39;Fiddy&#39; meme. Finally, savvy youth, says brand this&lt;br&gt;something about your personality, you hope everyone within earshot&lt;br&gt;understands.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If a cell phone rings but no one is to hear it, you are still down with 50&lt;br&gt;Cents? Ringtones are on personalization and public performance. The&lt;br&gt;Publicness of the ringtone is an integral part of attractiveness. It is unlikely that someone&lt;br&gt;would a ringtone on your landline. In a noisy urban soundscape like the city,&lt;br&gt;Silence is an anomaly. Personalized ring tones are simply another irritating sound in&lt;br&gt;the hype. Most of us manage tune out the sounds imposed on us: Muzak,.&lt;br&gt;Hawkers, traffic that so why try O&#39; Reily factor, and impose nor a more squawk to?&lt;br&gt;The ringtone is the audio equivalent of territorial pissing; perhaps thirty seconds in&lt;br&gt;whichever you choose the soundtrack. For a few moments when your cell phone rings the&lt;br&gt;The most powerful is 50 cent memes in the sonic environment. Where is &quot;Fiddy&quot;&lt;br&gt;relatively redundant as a social force, specific ringtones allow citizens&lt;br&gt;show your dissatisfaction or support a cause. Independent radio station&lt;br&gt;WFMU created have a variety of anti-George W.

Conviction of other commuters several cycles by 50 cent, the&lt;br&gt;Topic of &quot;Star Wars&quot; or quote Dubya demonstrates to your individual tastes and&lt;br&gt;to distinguish other you as nemesis or brothers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In our efforts to poverty to alleviate hinder environmental disaster or cure the global&lt;br&gt;AIDs epidemic, ringtones are totally and completely useless. When it comes to the enforcement&lt;br&gt;the myth that each individual special is, artificial unique personalized&lt;br&gt;Ringtone is the right one. Paradoxically, this demonstration of individualism is only&lt;br&gt;really effective in a crowd. As far as this writer the true purpose of the concerns&lt;br&gt;Ringtones is located in the ridiculousness. A last meeting of sensible adults turned to&lt;br&gt;Joy thanks to an improvised game of &quot;Name that tune&quot;. Using Foovely&#39;s ringtone&lt;br&gt;Preview, which gathered snippets of songs for the choice changed the&lt;br&gt;Party to guess.

You can make your thoughts that manifesting your desires. As long as you usually think the right ideas and have you call the right emotions in yourself, your wishes all be yours.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now, what does this for you is, that the law of attraction also prevent that with your needs if your thoughts are distorted. This means that if you have turned thoughts that you say will have when it just belongs to you or have feelings tell, you don&#39;t deserve what you want and what you fear most, you can expect a life of pain and the struggle.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Clearly, most people use the law of attraction for the latter. Several significant historical events and philosophical or religious beliefs, which leaked into the ground of our culture &quot;Memes&quot; to be or are extremely powerful cultural ideas that were born in us, because you manifest as our environment and our parents try in us from the time we babies are, we are a company, which has become addicted to fight. If you have to fight you are normal and healthy and noble and &quot;responsible&quot; as everyone should be. If you fight, are not, you are either very lucky or else you&#39;re an idiot, or lazy, stupid, or &quot;irresponsible&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is sad to say, not at all unusual for a specific culture, or society embroidered into the fabric to have many delusions to get taken for &quot;the truth&quot;. Our culture has much, that is good about you, but only because we economically and technologically advanced not means that we are without many delusional memes. This increase combat the law of attraction into something that is perverse an illusion and the hartnäckigster our desires instead of brought to pass, and this happens because our thoughts are those from want and instead of creativity and lack production and wealth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As a culture, we are proud, and rightly so, our problems to solve capabilities. But this is a double-edged sword: for now we as a society believe that if we have problems we have a problem! We are always looking for a problem to solve in the way that an untamed military always looks for an another enemy to fight, and if it is not an artificial enemy invented the military to do something. For most people when you create do not have a problem to solve, you ply - only, so you can feel &quot;safe&quot;!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, how should you apply the law of attraction to your life? It is complex at first because we are complex creatures, but first you&#39;ll need to cultivate a positive attitude. This requires positive things happens to you and for you to see, and it also you feel requires, to let Ositive about your life. This last part is difficult for most people. People are pretty used to fantasize about what you want, but even to say, &quot;Yes, but that really belongs to me&quot; to cultivate negative feelings of sadness and despair. The &quot;power of positive thinking&quot; doesn&#39;t work for about 80% of those who try it, just because you feel the right way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nevertheless can start the law of attraction in the right way, the right things and all your needs in your life with the right thought-to bring strong, able use your nervous system and your consciousness not re program so you deserve, feeling thoughts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But another very important component correctly with the law there of attraction: you have to understand really what you want and why you want it. You need to feel your connection to the universe and to know who you are. Many, many people draw the wrong things in your life because you want the right things in the first place! Listen very carefully to what says the universe. If you hear something let yourself hear to listen to. At the time you will be able to think the correct thoughts and wishes to trust the right things but only once brought to consciousness has been. And you know if this is as long as you first hear and speak a distant second.&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;Click here for more information about law of attraction [http://www.law-of-attraction-outlined.com/index.html] or &lt;a target=&quot;_new&quot; href=&quot;http://www.squidoo.com/11-forgotten-laws&quot;&gt;the 11 forgotten general laws&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;										</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/feeds/4480881493221939091/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/learn-law-of-attraction.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/4480881493221939091'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/4480881493221939091'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/learn-law-of-attraction.html' title='Learn, law of attraction'/><author><name>Sancho quijote de la panza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14260444873480936071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4545301710740258012.post-6105908562717081394</id><published>2010-12-24T22:20:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-24T22:20:00.582-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Bookmarking"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Getting"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Massive"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Secrets"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Social"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Traffic"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Uncover"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Using"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Website"/><title type='text'>Discover the secrets of the first massive traffic to your site with social bookmarking</title><content type='html'>&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;p&gt;There are many social sites online bookmarking, must select only assign the right sites and Internet traffic and website traffic to win.

The popular service has all the signs of promoting friendly medium - it is incredibly easy to use public, and boasts one of the largest user bases of a social media site. A single Tweet can easily in a thousand strong MEM flood the site with users and generating huge amounts of instant press swell.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But that&#39;s really what your business needs? A deluge of traffic, if not for a thin connection will most likely be interested in your promotion would not. Everyone Twitter&#39;s promotion to one or more disadvantages strong points – public actions can a brand often violated, memes can occasionally to succeeding marketing disappear lead and message as spam floods can be misinterpreted.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is anti-reason, for this reason - if you vorziehen-thousands of marketers Facebook instead of Twitter use for your advertising campaigns. The service is less than ideal in many ways when it comes to spread a message. Some profiles are private, others are inactive, and belong to the most groups that are rarely, if ever, with more than one a row updated.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But that&#39;s not all bad. Privacy will provide greater exchange of information and a more valuable level of participation. The grouping system can with some independent operators, the exposure in the &#39;like&#39; list of popular users find small business help site. In short, can Facebook&#39;s more private and network-based nature make it a bigger tool for viral growth as the &#39;open&#39; rivals.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Finally, his Facebook&#39;s relatively more private nature which makes it the perfect service for optimizing and promoting your brand labeled without fear of a &quot;spammer&quot;. Twitter&#39;s public nature made it a paradise for automation and link spam - a nuisance violated hundreds of real marketers in the process.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A level of trust that is missing otherwise comes with privacy.

It&#39;s driven by information traveling instantaneously through billions of connections that function organically as a single collective, creating, defining and shaping its own distinct code of conduct, conversation, humor, protocol and even etiquette.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why is this important?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;Nowhere is this rift of understanding more apparent or consequential than in marketing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For the casual user, it&#39;s not as important to grasp every nuance. However, if you want to do business and make an impact in this self-made, self-ruled culture, you must learn what makes it tick. You must be a part of its collective and discern the unifying elements that drive what its people, its tribes and its ruling class do, think, accept, feel, follow and react to - and why.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These governing principles aren&#39;t published in any how-to pamphlet or printed on a membership card. There are no clear signs posted along the way. To know Web culture, you must simply be a part of its collective in every way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Living in the Internet&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;True mastery of the Web and its culture comes from living and breathing it day in and day out. Reading what&#39;s popular. Participating in discussion. Paying attention to reactions. Observing as the collective expands its knowledge, evolves its sense of humor, chooses what it hates and likes - all building upon a foundation of shared experience.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These are the fundamental aspects that must be second nature to anyone charged with growing your business - whether that&#39;s you or your marketing agency:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ruled by tribes of trusted elite&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A collective sense of humor&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Celebrity&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A language and customs of its own&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An economy of attention&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gaming as a social connection&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The need to belong&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The trust barrier&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Homebases&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Addicted to sharing&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anti-corporate by default&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Greater good&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the know&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Freedom above all&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Be one&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Web time is real time&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tech-centric&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Failure to not only recognize and comprehend but also to be active in Web culture will greatly increase the risk that any marketing venture you undertake will be ineffectual and ultimately unsuccessful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ruled by tribes of trusted elite&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;Early on, the Internet began to cleverly devise ways to sift through millions of pieces of information to elevate popular stuff, bury hated stuff or otherwise separate from the unremarkable.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In doing so, clearer vision began to take hold on what was worthy of attention and what wasn&#39;t, based on the collective&#39;s opinion. From this, very active users began to shape the very fabric of the Internet collective, and the organism evolved to trust those in its elite class.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These collections of loud voices that think alike and swarm together can sway nearly anything. Old Spice, Barack Obama, Victoria Secret and Conan O&#39;Brien all know the power of the Internet ruling class. They know who have the megaphones, passion and resources in their market and they had marketing people who were part of those tribes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Building upon the foundations of the Web&#39;s culture, your marketing entity must know how the ruling classes are formed and how they move in every circumstance in order to execute with pinpoint precision and make waves of customers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A language and customs of its own&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The language of the Web is probably one of the most easily understood and heavily evolved foundations of the collective.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&#39;LOL&#39;s are somewhat ubiquitous, but if your marketing agency doesn&#39;t know why a ROFLcopter is funny, the essence in the difference between FAIL and WIN or what it means to be &#39;pwned&#39; then, believe it or not, you lack fundamental pieces of understanding needed to take hold of the Internet and communicate with its culture in every way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Beyond simple shorthand, there is the issue of etiquette and protocol. The Web collective has evolved its own rules for what&#39;s acceptable and what is shunned. It may seem silly, but everything from understanding what it means to encapsulate a word with asterisks to shying away from the investment of personal communication, you or your marketing company must be one with its protocols, even if you aren&#39;t marketing to people that adopt the understanding of.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Like all cultures, knowing your boundaries and assimilating yourself into its protocol is essential to go beyond baby steps. You can get by, but you&#39;ll never truly connect on a mass scale.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The need to belong&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;In our series on understanding and marketing to tribes, we covered the anatomy of a tribe-why people connect with each to form followings of an idea and how they collectively rule the marketplace.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The foundation of tribes is passion around something-an idea, lifestyle or movement. The truth is, the Web collective is broken up into thousands of movements stemming from one root motivation: the need to be a part of something.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is why successful websites whose goals are centered on building a vast and passionate community around its brand or purpose institute point systems and accomplishment badges to reward participation. Understanding why people not only connect themselves to a group or community, but feel rewarded by recognition of contribution to the group is fundamental to connecting with the Web collective overall.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Auxiliary to this is the &quot;15-minutes-of-fame&quot; motivation. Most people are motivated by the opportunity to be featured in higher esteem for outstanding contribution. Elements such as &quot;the most popular photo of the day&quot; or &quot;most video views&quot; reward the creator or contributor by putting him or her in the spotlight.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Addicted to sharing&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Members of the collective like to broadcast what they like, what they find interesting, funny, etc. This explains how great ideas go viral.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;People inherently want to share things they find striking. When something great happens in the same way its users want to belong, they want to take ownership of it. That great thing becomes a part of them, because it&#39;s a part of everybody.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For example, a funny joke you get from Internet strikes you as hilarious, so you take that joke and you share it with your name on it. A piece of it is yours because you blessed it, posted it, passed it along. Your name becomes part of it. It&#39;s expressing you. Because you found it and shared it, you have partial ownership of it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the know&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;News in the Information Age is available everywhere as it happens. No longer are a select few allowed to report and distribute news. Every member of the Web culture has a cell phone, camera and a way to distribute news at the fingertips.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When events happen, information is moved through the collective, news is discussed, debated, evaluated and classified based on decisions made that organize and shape news within the Web.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As a result, almost all people connected to the Web take very little at face value. Its people are very informed. The culture&#39;s approach to news is one based on hard data and facts, wide-area access and sharing, and the inherent power to sift through the noise and elevate news of importance within its tribes of interest.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Additionally, the Web is the permanent record. It is not a culture that forgets. History is made every day and the decisions of the Web collective serve to build a foundation of information, learning and growing as time marches on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Web time is real time&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Life on the Web moves every bit as fast as the lives of the individuals that comprise its vast collective. The lines between how people behave, relate and interact online and offline are constantly growing less distinct.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The advent of social media has been a defining moment in the evolution of Web culture, as we&#39;ve all become reporters in our own right. The immediacy of sharing has fed the human need for connection, fueling a never-ending stream of status updates, wall posts and tweets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If someone discovers a favorite new sushi place, their Facebook friends likely know about it before they even leave the restaurant. Likewise, if someone has a negative experience with a customer service rep for their cable company, chances are good they&#39;ll vent about it on Twitter as soon as they hang up the phone.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;While this type of information exchange may seem mundane or even meaningless, if you&#39;re the sushi place or the cable company, it won&#39;t be long before you feel its effects. As news and information passes from one circle of friends to another, it adds to and reshapes the collective conscience. As a result, the time lapse between the occurrence of an event and its entry into the greater awareness is shrinking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You must be constantly plugged in to be able to trace trends and follow the ebb and flow of public sentiment. It&#39;s not enough to be a passive observer on the sidelines; you have to jump in and be one with the community if you want to have a clear view.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A collective sense of humor&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;More than 250,000 people listen to Jim Gaffigan&#39;s thoughts on Twitter. When a hilarious observation hits, 50,000 people take it, re-tweet it, re-post it and share it with their hundreds of connections, sending it through the veins of Web culture and ultimately assimilating it into its foundation to reshape opinion and unify the collective&#39;s unified sense of humor.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Internet is just like any small group of people and its various relationships. All of its collective experiences are one big every growing foundation of inside jokes, repeating history and new creations being build upon, carried on, evolved, passed around, remixed and collectively laughed over again and again.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;YouTube understood this in 2007, when for April Fools&#39; Day the video broadcaster made a move to solidify its membership with the Internet collective, hacking its own home page and forced every click to be redirected to the ubiquitous Rick Astley video tied to the mega-meme &#39;Rick-rolling&#39;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Again, knowing why Rick Rolling is funny does nothing for you directly. It&#39;s knowing why it and other Internet memes and viral phenomena are funny to the collective that separates the successful Internet marketer from one just pretending to be one.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An economy of attention&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;The culture of the Web operates on an economy of attention that is based on self-fulfillment and instant gratification.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the days when traditional media like newspapers and TV were the primary arbiters of information gathering and sharing, choice was limited, so everything was structured around creating captive audiences and force-feeding them information.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Members of the Internet collective are active seekers and searchers, not passive consumers. Knowing that they have an infinite array of options at their disposal, they pursue only what interests them most, and they quickly dismiss anything that doesn&#39;t immediately grab them as being relevant, meaningful or enjoyable. How quickly?  &lt;a target=&quot;_new&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/4616700.stm&quot;&gt;Research&lt;/a&gt; has shown that it takes as little as 50 milliseconds for visitors to formulate an impression and determine their opinion of a website.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As a result, your greatest competitor in the culture of the Web is time. The challenge that you must meet is not only to capture attention but to provide direct meaning and value upfront in order to prove why you&#39;re a place to come back to.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The trust barrier&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Web collective is inherently untrusting. The Internet itself is a nation without laws, and there is always some degree of transparency lacking that cannot be entirely satisfied.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Therefore, it is incumbent upon the collective to sift through its own content and distill the legitimate from the illegitimate. Its members approach this task with a wary eye, looking for reasons not to trust. Anywhere they land, they are on alert for red flags - anything from bad design and fake photos to incorrect information and over-the-top testimonials - that indicate a site unworthy of further time and attention.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Authority is issued from within the collective by way of opinion. Comments, reviews and popularity form the basis for trust, and its people feed off the assessments of other like-minded individuals.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Peer validation is the hallmark of Web culture. No matter what you do or what you sell, if enough people love it and vouch for you within their own circles of influence, you&#39;ll be successful. Without this, you face a significant burden of proof to overcome the natural skepticism of the collective.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anti-corporate by default&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;While Web culture is instinctively mistrustful, it reserves a special degree of cynicism for all things corporate. The reasons why abound, but they are in no small part the product of decades of traditional, carpet-bombing marketing and its battery of empty promises, hollow gimmicks and self-serving promotion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The fabric of the Web collective is comprised of personal connections. Corporate entities are regarded as intrinsically impersonal and therefore existing outside of this culture. In fact, this anti-corporate stance is a point of pride and a rallying cry, creating an environment that is quick to identify and ridicule those companies that don&#39;t understand the culture and its mores. The only ones allowed in are those that earn their way legitimately by building trust through the demonstration of listening and responding to the needs of the collective.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In short, all things being equal, as a corporate entity, you start below zero. Attempting to market to the collective as an outsider that is disengaged from its culture is downright offensive and will result in your brand being at best ignored and at worse severely penalized. This is why trustcasting is essential. The only successful approach to getting and keeping customers in Web culture is through an ongoing commitment to building and maintaining trust - a highly personal approach to business growth that requires developing authentic, two-way relationships within the collective and engaging them with honesty and respect.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Freedom above all&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;The spirit of the Web is freedom: freedom of access, freedom of choice and freedom of distribution.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The openness of the Web is the very reason for its existence. As such, the flag flown by the Internet nation is one of self-protection from that which poses a threat to the unrestricted flow of information upon which the Web was founded. Its people promote elements that provide more access and suppress those that oppose it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The stark contrast in the performance of the business models behind the New York Times and Facebook is one of the best examples of this.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The New York Times, a longstanding bastion of news once regarded within the industry as the nation&#39;s &quot;newspaper of record,&quot; has waffled on its choice of how to deliver information while keeping its traditional revenue model intact, leaning towards a subscriber-based system that restricts access without purchase. While this protects the profitability of the New York Times to some degree, it limits its distribution versus other news sources. Whether this works for the publication or not is really beside the point. The culture of the Web outright shuns the paper&#39;s outmoded approach, openly criticizing it and its decision-makers&#39; policies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Facebook hit on success quickly, growing into a billion-dollar company practically overnight. Its model was non-restrictive, allowing unintrusive ads to be run alongside the application rather than garnering revenue through paid access. It is easily embraced by the culture because it is open, provides incredible utility that betters the life of its users and listens and responds to the demands of the collective.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Tech-centric&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;As the Web itself represents the broadest and most powerful form of technology itself, its people and culture are inherently centered around technology.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Its collective is not only tech-aware, but tech savvy. They want to improve their lives with technology. They want to do more with less.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In their quest to find better information faster and from everywhere, the people that make up the culture of the Web are built on a high-level of understanding for software, hardware and data. The culture is constantly looking for new ideas, concepts and technology that allows the Web to be used in a more useful and efficient manner.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As a result, the Web propagates technology through itself. Its members and ruling class have new technology on high receive and are connoisseurs for new ideas, passing them through the conversation, adapting them to their lives and spreading the word on how it affects their lives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Celebrity&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;In the same way the cult of personality has shaped our culture since the advent of television, the Internet collective and its ruling classes proudly evolve its own methods of reaction and shaping celebrity influence.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;No one person created the book on Chuck Norris jokes, each an ongoing, comical demonstration of how Mr. Norris&#39; super-human presence is supreme in every facet. The Internet collective invented, cultivated and spread this ongoing joke with his celebrity. Google itself even jumps on the bandwagon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Is this knowledge, by itself, helpful in marketing? No. However, understanding how the Web culture shapes and is shaped by celebrity is the mark of a great Internet marketer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Knowing what is played out and what will ring with millions is the mark of one that is in touch with Web culture. The Old Spice shower spokesman&#39;s demeanor, speech and jokes are not, in and of themselves, remarkable. It&#39;s knowing the complete package and why it will connect and spread in a way no traditional advertising on any medium could have ever done.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gaming as a social connection&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Web is one-half work and one-half pleasure. In fact, it could be argued that electronic gaming served as the genesis of the Web collective as we know it today.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Electronic gaming is a core part of Web culture, and the industry commands far more influence than Hollywood. With the evolution of social gaming such as Zynga&#39;s FarmVille and Mafia Wars, every new game published forms its own groups and followings, bringing people together and allowing them opportunities to share their experiences.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Within the collective, language, protocol and humor are just a few of the many facets that continue to be shaped by the massive online gaming community. In the same way celebrities, movies and TV shows have shaped our culture for decades, gaming is not only a fundamental piece of the Internet but a defining touchstone of Web culture.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Homebases&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;In the Internet universe, people proudly set up shop in various places. Knowing why certain subsets of the collective bind themselves to certain homebases is yet another key to understanding Web culture.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Facebook is ubiquitous. There is hardly a soul that&#39;s not connected to it. However, if Facebook fulfilled everything, Flickr, Tumblr, Twitter, forums and hundreds of thousands of other sites wouldn&#39;t exist.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As an example, photos posted on Facebook are usually for the personal enjoyment of family and friends. Photos posted on Flickr are more prone to be critiqued and elevated based on the critical eye of other photographers. What you think is a good photo in your album on Facebook may not stand out on Flickr or anywhere else.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Knowing the difference between these homebases, the nuances that distinguish one community from another and why people plant their flag in one place and not others is critical when reaching out and building a community of your own.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Greater good&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Web is like any other nation. It is crafted by people for people. It not only represents a collective consciousness but a collective with a conscience. Its members recognize problems and flock to help those in need. Like any other good democracy, its people not only look to better their own lives but also the lives of others.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The power of the Web to shine a spotlight on the ills of society and instantly raise awareness among millions of the problems in the world is a phenomenon never before seen in human history. Because knowledge and freedom reign supreme on the Web, the pen continues to be the mightier than the sword, as access to and distribution of information on a mass scale lead to action that moves mountains.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Inherent in every member of the Web&#39;s culture is an activist - someone ready and willing to take up a flag for a cause they believe in. Armed with the understanding of the power of one person and one idea to change the world, members of Web culture hunger for the opportunity to rally others and attack problems head-on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Be one&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Web collective represents the most vast and most complex social system on the planet. Its parts are many, diverse and constantly in motion. It is ever-growing and ever-evolving. Everyone is a part of it, and it touches every facet of their lives - they play in it, work in it, do business in it and are entertained by it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The points we&#39;ve covered do not map an instructive path nor provide magic beans of knowledge that unlock the secret to winning customers on the Web. While each might seem unimportant or even trivial in and of itself, you can&#39;t begin to comprehend the collective and what makes it tick without this greater perspective.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you are looking to grow your business or set your next idea on fire, you or your marketing firm must be one with this culture and all of its defining characteristics. You must speak its language, appreciate its sense of humor and know why certain things spread virally while others get buried immediately. In today&#39;s marketplace, it is this fundamental understanding that sets the successful Internet marketer apart from one that merely takes a shot in the dark and hopes for the best.&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;Fame Foundry&lt;br&gt; 1800 Camden Road&lt;br&gt; Suite 145&lt;br&gt; Charlotte, NC 28203&lt;br&gt; 888.228.4020&lt;br&gt; &lt;a target=&quot;_new&quot; href=&quot;http://www.famefoundry.com&quot;&gt;http://www.famefoundry.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;										</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/feeds/8791997150772036730/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/culture-of-web.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/8791997150772036730'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/8791997150772036730'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/culture-of-web.html' title='The culture of the Web'/><author><name>Sancho quijote de la panza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14260444873480936071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4545301710740258012.post-7600860026479019758</id><published>2010-12-23T20:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-23T20:46:00.280-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Content"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Great"/><title type='text'>How to come up with great new content</title><content type='html'>&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;p&gt;There is no doubt that the generation of ideas for new topics is a challenge for any blogger.

It is a very good chance that the first image ever looked on the Internet could be labeled so funny. or at least trying to be funny. How is it different today as the Internet began entering houses around the world?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The most popular funny pictures lolcat are images today undoubtedly to combine the word labels (in this case, mediation, emotion or conversation) and lovable cat. The LOLcat pictures are really a development of humor&#39;s existence on the Internet. The first popular image macros (even a reference to a user-defined &quot;macro&quot; yourself in a picture insert) were born within the Forum of something awful. Around 2005 one 4chan Imageboard once presented per entry &quot;Caturdays,&quot; a precursor of the now infamous LOLcat pictures. From then until 2007 floated lolcats under public general radar to commercial efforts of lolcats at the top the Web brought.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;An another staple of today&#39;s funny PIC the motivational poster parodies are genre. You can see them described as demotivational posters or uninstall motivators. This meme&#39;s is rooted 4chan and it is/b-Board. The premise is simple enough; take a picture that may have obvious funny attributes or none at all, a keyword add and include Pointe-off ending with a set. Here is an example: an image, the poster-like features an image of a wooden fence with a sign that reads &quot;Electric Fence.&quot; The keyword written in a big fat script reads &quot;Intelligence&quot; and the Pointe below is written, &quot;If someone tells you that you have some lying or hate you.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The appeal and popularity of the motivational poster parodies is the easy access for everyone to make. Many sites have programs that will help around the image and the text apply to the appearance of the motivational poster with the user only need to create automatically.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That brings us essentially to the tried and true funny images from the Internet; Photography shops. Maybe a little more patience than LOLcats and uninstall motivators and skill require having photoshops proved sky is the limit when it comes to humor. Something awful (with it&#39;s Photoshop Phridays) and Fark have hosted Photoshop contests and events for years. The basic premise behind this is to create a topic or an idea for market participants to follow; for example &quot;product placements,&quot; which would combine ordinary or known settings with unexpected product placements (i.e.: Coca-Cola bracelet on Hitler&#39;s life on a Nazi rally). Sometimes combine in jokes, plates or existing meme lost the humor behind this imaginative creations to someone, who is relatively new on the Internet or not deliberately based be repeating jokes. The photography shops that are able to combine these jokes with universal appeal are those who always manage their way into your e-Mail box next to the 10 worst Pick-Up lines find that your MOM sent.&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;Darwin is an Internet and humor enthusiast who hopes, that a day will laugh all heal.

Your lack of will take money.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The truth: One of the biggest problems to solve the money is poverty.

The more increases your financial education, more see money with your mind in the form of opportunities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(4) Where: Money never concerns.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The truth: Is money. in fact, the researchers shows people poverty or lack of fear money than death.

Just learn how your own go about.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(7) Where: God will not be financially wealthy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The truth: no one was misunderstood so as God.

Listen to believe a lie on&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(8) Are: There is nothing you can about your financial situation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The truth: That&#39;s a lie, there are so many things you can do about your financial situation. Poverty is a choice. Lack is a choice and prosperity is a choice you make. You can choose you like. You can be better than your choice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(9) Lie: I just received Empire the day, my happiness comes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The truth: Wealth is made not one day.

If you want to call &quot;Targets&quot;, is also good but do, learn to get things in perspective. You are not in the way led to believe.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Much conscious mind, subconscious mind, which will believe the patterns, etc. have been just descriptions of spiritual techniques and do not exist in isolation, how many people believe.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They are all part of the same mental cooperative.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ah, there lies the rub!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The moment you to the destination set, create an &quot;internal conflict&quot; between different departments of this mental Association take place immediately.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is our parents, our religious beliefs or lack you due to the way we were taught how we were educated, where we grew up inevitable. The list is almost endless.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All these factors make our core beliefs. These beliefs cause for our very own in particular and personal creative pattern of thinking to our own individual realities dictate which life to our very own set of &#39; life &#39; type.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Living laws means laws we observed following reasons leading a &#39;normal&#39; acceptable life differently. But it means also that you have a life of its own and be changed can modified or completely abolished to make room for new.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Each of us has a number of these laws. The legislation you life are similar to other people, but never 100% - which makes us individuals.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sure we are all human, but we are not the same. We are all different if only slightly, but we all are different.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Internal conflict, if I call the judge evaluates and compares checks your goal if it is valid. That is to say if it matches your current set of internal laws.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If your goal is found to violate, these laws for whatever reason and grounds are you very rarely aware are overruled immediately and without further ADO and thrown out of court without hope of the complaint.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The secret to achieving our objectives is therefore to create a new creative pattern of thinking and thus our current set of living to amend legislation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We have an active and willing Member which will work.&lt;br&gt;We must, in fact, work with the cooperative!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The modern day idea that you can use visualization techniques or endless confirmations repeat these laws change and therefore the judge&#39;s mind is totally wrong - it won&#39;t make the slightest difference.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is totally wrong, think.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sure, after many years of constant repetition of your affirmations/visualizations finally some reaction you will receive from the judge if it lasts a lifetime, that, if you you towards a funny farm first locks not!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--------------&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Meme machine&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--------------&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Before we go further we, take a look at these beliefs and where you come and see why they are so damn hard to change.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It&#39;s all said is very good to change our beliefs, and we change our lives are but just how do we do it?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We know not working from experience the simple visualization, nor do confirmations or anything else for that matter.  So what&#39;s the answer?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;MEMES are the DNA of beliefs (pronounced as in cream).  Memes are a relatively new discovery and rarely, if ever spoken in books or courses on personal achievement and performance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why?  If memes are the foundation of our personality why are you never mentioned?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The main reason is that few people really understand how to work or in our daily lives have the meanings that you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The dictionary defines a meme as &quot;a unit of cultural information such as a cultural practice or idea that is transmitted orally or by repeated action of a mind to another&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Memes have compared to viruses, and the comparison is in fact very apt.  Oxford biologist Richard Dawkins defined as a series of ideas that can replicate like a virus and the spread of a brain to another meme.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For example, it took only 300 years for the meme of Christianity to overrun the Roman Empire and less than 130 years for the meme of communism &quot;1.8 billion people on to infect the face of the Earth&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, that memes as can imagine: &quot;Life is a constant struggle&quot;, &quot;There is no free meals in this life&quot;, &quot;Money on trees grow&quot; etc. etc. and everything represent this silly meme (, life is not easy and have constantly struggling to make ends meet) had set many generations home in our psyche and be part of our daily lives.  Also it said to be true - our parents!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Memes come in all shapes and sizes.  Some are relatively innocent such as the Hula-hoop memes, &#39;the pet rock MEM&#39; and music memes normally associated with a particular race or religion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But some are extremely dangerous and far from innocent.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I want in the religio-political arena, so, suffice it to say that the religion memes enter and particularly virulent the political meme and fatal in some cases!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;----------&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Paradigms&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;----------&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then, what are known as paradigms make meme.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A paradigm is a set of assumptions, concepts, values and practices, a way of viewing reality for the community representing shares.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We must influence us clearly understanding the power of the paradigms and how in order to exercise our right of choice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To determine what paradigms we decide to accept our perceptions, which in turn our decisions, actions, experiences, social systems, worlds and Futures shape or form.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you do not understand, will be how much of a handle paradigms have on your life and your experience design influenced by, you and the world in stone are carved there nothing ever you can do to change this.&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;Ian Randall s.n.&lt;br&gt;Author of the accelerated target manifestation&lt;br&gt; &lt;a target=&quot;_new&quot; href=&quot;http://www.tinyurl.com/6zbsf&quot;&gt;http://www.tinyurl.com/6zbsf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;										</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/feeds/910695420941924669/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/setting-goals-facts-behind-fiction.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/910695420941924669'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4545301710740258012/posts/default/910695420941924669'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://internetmeme2day.blogspot.com/2010/12/setting-goals-facts-behind-fiction.html' title='Setting goals - the facts behind the fiction'/><author><name>Sancho quijote de la panza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14260444873480936071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4545301710740258012.post-4918260176860814383</id><published>2010-12-21T23:03:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-21T23:03:00.221-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Block"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Community"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Infection"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Memetic"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Paranormal"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Psychological"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Stumbling"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Viral"/><title type='text'>Viral memetic infection - the psychological contention the paranormal community</title><content type='html'>&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;p&gt;Zeal. Fervor. Blind faith. Unshakeable faith.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;These are the symptoms and the attributes to identify the ugly side of religion. Religion nature, what a system or adopt operation of ideas, anchored act in the psyche and thus as a format based on day to day functionality in your own life. We all have a religion, unless accepted traditions of the world in the wisdom, one has developed science, atheism, agnosticism or structures starting, a foundation of the principles of governance is by yourself.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;A meme.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is from nothing inherently wrong with memetic mentality, unless it is the mindset of the Division, polarity or a superiority complex in nature. These tend to as harmful as brother against brother and sister against sister exact a very real and principled physical or mental judgment of cruelty on another with both sides who think you are right your push their faith even in itself to reaffirm righteous way. I&#39;ll give you the world today as anothers beliefs are an example of this infectious memetic polarity of religious dissensions at the others in the hands brought about.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I wish to address in this article is to viral memetic infections spreading in an idea how following, one a greater good mind to mind a disease from its source or origin, which, as accepted with no idea of the potential damage to one will undoubtedly itself, others with another idea. Many sects of shame as for example the peoples Temple of Jim Jones, heaven&#39;s Gate I lost a distant family member of mine, and the Unification Church are examples of a mass viral memetic infections.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All it takes is a little educated Alpha personality with a swaggering ego and a preference for makes a plausible but still askew set of ethics and ideal in the mushy minds of the &quot;lost&quot; or low self instill estimated searching. Does this sound familiar to you? Let&#39;s take away, don&#39;t think that the rituals of the obvious religious overtones and change the name of the memetic planters to find love, seed the weak minded for yourself to build heat a personality cult on full as much, feel fervor and sheet metal processing as each fundamentalist religion and call it ufology.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I think that this is not a new valid evaluation and monitoring. However, the evidence is more on the nose today than it ever was.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Their are two major infectious meme recognized known as the true believers plagues that paranormal community today and you will easily as the two camps, and uninstall bunker leave precious few skeptics haphazard and spread thin in the Middle somewhere. Both are very keen in nature. Both have an unswerving believe in your believe that you an entire term or decision preconceive without checking other ways, evidence or processes. The only difference between this viral meme is simply an idea. A think. Other than that both seem shocked to know the views. You are hellbent know something even if to make up to security or net to create any kind, even if the same network of imaginary posts is bound.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are many sects personality in the paranormal community and it is always so as such accepts that the acceptance of this viral memetic infections is still a further Submeme of acceptance. It is very subtle and far distributed with many nuances and almost imperceptible subconscious beliefs own basis also eye real fears. It is all very confused and convoluted mess and each interwoven layer yet another is infectious and virulent memes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Memes themselves are a curiosity in this highly subjective nature of own perception would seem almost as a fail safe against you as every perception is unique with no exception to this rule here is that someone with a compelling idea and later almost without to fail others not view or perception, experience the originator is blind accept the idea undeniably and thus in the following with no longer thought to act of the following as a &quot;this guy is right&quot; perception and mentality are caught.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Am I the only one that run the evidence throughout the paranormal community and UFOlogy in particular finds rampant? Should hopefully not, but then again, I don&#39;t want to, take my ideas as wrote and start me or my line of thinking. I have trends towards is a hermit and would like to be nobody that close to me. I would prefer you thought to yourself! It&#39;s just, because I personally by the invasive thoughts and actions of the even affected am even righteous perceived that I this at all right. It is a selfish pleasure, I know. So be it. My motivation takes away the validity of the point was made in any way.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You are alone in all your perceptions and experiences. Only you can determine it to take any one-way action, will show, make sure that you clearly decide principles and contructs to itself and not blind to the unproven ideal described as by unclear thinking of another.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The ultimate pointed out and the intention of this article is easy. I can not, nor can anyone you tell what you think or think. It is impossible. Anything that comes to mind is, because your either&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;A)&lt;/b&gt; were created or&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;B)&lt;/b&gt; allows it to be there to put&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You have the choice. All I ask is that you exercise these valuable ability. The bottom line is, no one has no answers for you. No one has the truth for you. No one knows that something the you not because nothing there to know! Literally!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Think for yourself. Decide for. Act for themselves. Are the brave and courageous, but again did these are foul committed foul evil and terrible time, not less will ease an ethic unfounded claims of a self proclaimed Prophet or power monger.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Free yourself for you...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Cheers,&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;~ Erik ~.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;I&#39;m a product of my desert Southwest up bringing.

A classic intelligence test like e.g. Cattell that that storage i.e. how measuring accurately are constructed memories measures, as well is the person who takes the tests able to logical connections between images, the logic behind the mysterious of more than numbers or alphabets, and if the person able to logical connections in relations with the various exists to find 33 representations, he finds himself as having intelligence of 174. So you can find the logical connector between given representations Cattell&#39;s test, you are a genius. The Cattell promises that are logical performances of the congenital neurological systems, what are measured and that the intelligence test made logic such as trigonometry and calculus, requires no prior knowledge of artificial everyone, although numbers and alphabets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The artificial logic simple math is how such as calculate 2 + 2 = 4 what the Finnish education system really me taught when I in my first class, held only makes me numbers, and symbols to remember war.Nach artificial logic learn which use that connect to representations in this way, I had an artificial logical system to mathematical logical connections between representations and if I now take one handed down + symbol between numbers, in the case of simple as equations as 2 + 2, my subconscious brain functions automatically you mein awareness into your full logical result 4, thus manifest intelligence equate. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Because subconscious brain functions, micro level Neurocomputation, dynamics of sub consciousness or sub consciousness, your favorite pick, deals with information on the level of units which are divided in spatial information hierarchy of micro level entities, the production of the macro level entity make and macro-level such as is combined entities to produce more macro-level entities, for example the case in the Visual system when environmental data through its content generative cycle from v1 (neurons that information, mapping the environment retina) to V5 (Visual movement); the macro level entities that we perceive as our environment caused by the logical connections, by the sub consciousness made. But when one examines exactly what contains the consciousness, he will find that the macro level entities from various neurological cognitive logical systems parallel come to our conscious mind. The sounds have been translated from the environment to meaningful sentences, then produce representations that are parallel with the sounds. At the same time one feels the environment as a virtual replication containing already recognized forms and objects, colors, their different spatial coordinates in the theory of relativity with each other, etc. The same parallel information contains body orientation, smells, tastes, emotions, and so on, are all part of the same macro level representation, we are experiencing, as the contents of our consciousness as a confidence received these parallel descriptive levels in the environment. And because units of information need micro level each of phenomena in the environment that has been translated into a virtual form to get your recognizable form, you must be already exists in the brains as neurons.And this now brings the difference between the innate information and innate information systems and the scholars meaning the es.Das human genome is the basis for the formation of the innate information and innate systems produced natural connectors that create logical connections between representations whether this micro level applies to units as the macro-level representation of you in the theory of relativity with the innate logic. And it goes without saying that the theory of relativity with genome constructed brains to with the environmental conditions on Earth, to deal with, if for instance, the retina, snake detection (Tooby, et al. 2005), the Coalition detection (Kurzban, 2001), nervous system, investigate ect. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; We are can be connect logic representations with the language taught and considered the language as a meme. This means that language is a logic, and the laws of semantics to define a logical connection between the representations are what and what not.We use the logic of learned language for the reconstruction of scenes from the consciousness another agent in the environment and the other way herum.Die other meme, language are with words, but although objective like in their final levels, are not.Any definition of a Word is what the people own subconscious brain functions to you have built, although the original source an agent nearby.The heads are constructive and memories are re-constructions of the past.&lt;/p&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;br /&gt;		&lt;br /&gt;			&lt;br /&gt;				&lt;br /&gt;					&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;						&lt;p&gt;Henry M.

A meme is defined as &quot;that which imitated is&quot;, and it includes all cultural idea or unit of replication. Dawkins great idea was that the evolution only applies not to genetics. There are three basic components of evolution: inheritance or inheritance, variation and selection. Memetic theory provides the transmission of memes (cultural ideas that spread) and how to develop. The term &quot;Meme&quot; has rather ironically, for thirty years or so catch, on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Here is a brief overview of the application of the three factors of evolution genetics and later we can see how this could be applicable to other types of replicators. A gene is a unit of replication. It is passed through generations of people. That is the inheritance factor in the evolution of genes. Next variation is, in this case it could be random genetic mutations or sexual recombination during meiosis. These are the processes to get the slight variations by the gene. The final factor for evolution occur necessary selection; There are actually two mechanisms within genetics. Natural selection is of course, if certain features are favored their phenotypic relationships in the area. In other words, because there are variations, trains to cause the higher prices of survival will be shared.The big idea here is that if you have inheritance, variation and selection, evolution take you müssen.Die above mentioned a simplistic way of indicating is development in in terms of genetics. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; And then there are also memes. Memes, you will find, manage inheritance - are passed in people&#39;s minds. They are sometimes different (there is a continuum between memes that are self correcting and memes that rapidly change). Some of you are different, if transfer (like a rumor) that changes rapidly. Finally, there is the choice of memes.People allow not just any old distributed meme; accepts only the best ideas that most useful are the most desirable memes.
