Google+ Hangouts Can Now Be Initiated From YouTube

noreply@blogger.com (Bikram) — Fri, 19 Aug 2011 07:27:00 +0000

Google has quietly rolled out yet another feature of its Google+ social network, letting users click Share from any YouTube video, revealing an icon that suggests watching the video with friends in a Google+ hangout.

Google didn’t formally announce this new feature, instead revealing it via product manager Brian Glick on — where else — Google+, where he casually mentioned it like so:

You can now start a Google+ Hangout with a YouTube video, directly from YouTube. Watch with your friends. :)

Just click on “Share” underneath any video, and then click on “Start a Google+ Hangout” in the bottom right-hand corner.

A few weeks ago, YouTube Live product manager Brandon Badge quietly mentioned the upcoming ability to enable hangouts from YouTube with live streaming video, and this must be the first stage of that initiative.

As we mentioned then, it’s been possible to watch videos with friends since the beginning of Google+, through a more complicated manual process that must be initiated in Google+. But this new button allowing you to initiate hangouts from YouTube with a couple of clicks makes it considerably easier.

What Is SEO - Search Engine Optimization?

noreply@blogger.com (Bikram) — Tue, 01 Mar 2011 14:59:00 +0000

If you have been wanting to learn SEO, you have come to the right place. We will discuss Search Engine Optimization in this article and try to find out what it takes to get yourself placed well in the search engines.

A few things you need to realize, especially if you are working with a SEO firm, is that it takes time to get results. In SEO, or any industry that I know of, it takes efforts and time to see consistent results. Also, things like guaranteed first place don’t exist. No one in their right minds can accurately predict the ranks for any particular website for a keyword.

We got a little off the tangent there. Back to the topic, Search Engine Optimization is very powerful if done correctly. Most people, unfortunately, put in efforts in the wrong direction. Instead of making the website good, they spam blogs, directories and everything else they come across to get a backlink. Things don’t work that way... not in the long term.

Stop for a second and think about what the purpose of search engines is. They want their users to get more relevant results for whatever they are searching. Now, if you make it so that the site is more relevant (without spamming everything to death), wouldn’t that benefit more? The biggest search engine, Google, recently bought Feedburner. That was for a reason, of course. You may have guessed already but in case you haven’t, let me make it easy for you: They are tracking users’ activity on your site.

Why you ask? Simple, really. That will tell them how much time people are spending on your website, if they are coming back or not, etc. If people are spending a lot of time on your website, they found something relevant to what they were looking for. If not, time to improve your site! You want to make sure your website is good for the visitors first. Also, you want to know your market and make sure you’re catering to them. If you are, you’d not face any problems once you have ranked.

Though there is virtually unlimited supply of traffic on the Internet, you must not fall into the illusion that you don’t need to make your visitors stick. You must, in fact, put in all efforts to ensure your visitors come back time and again after they have found your website once, be it through any source. This will mean you don’t have to rely on search engines after a certain period of time. Depending on third parties is a hugely disadvantageous position for any business.

SEO is mostly divided into two broad categories. One is on-page and the other is off-page. On page is defined by and confined to a specific set of rules. Off-page, on the other hand, isn’t limited to anything but your creativity. You have to get backlinks from varied sources and they spruce up your rankings.

There are a few things you should do and there are a few others that you must not. Some of the do not’s include cloaking, hiding text, spamming for backlinks, etc. Mostly common sense, really. Some of the must do’s include having unique and relevant content, which is structured in a way that users find easy to navigate. Having clean URLs and a sitemap is good, too.

By no means am I trying to cover everything in SEO in one article. Covering SEO in full is way, way beyond the scope of this, or any such article. I’m, however, trying to give you a good start on the basics of how search engines work and what you should do before doing anything else.

World's Tallest Dog

noreply@blogger.com (Bikram) — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 15:56:00 +0000

Standing at nearly 43 inches tall from paw to shoulder and weighing a staggering 245lbs could this be the world's new tallest dog? Pictured here in the parks of Tuscon, Arizona, George, a four-year-old blue great dane, looks more like a miniature horse than a dog.
'Giant George' and owner Dave Nasser share a couch together: The four-year-old blue great dane, weighs a staggering 245lbs and measures almost 43ins at the shoulder. The gentle giant, who measures 7ft 3ins from nose to tail, could be a prime contender to take the title from the former record holder, Gibson, a harlequin Great Dane who passed away from cancer last August.

Now George's owners, David and Christine Nasser, are awaiting confirmation from Guinness World Records to see if he has achieved the lofty heights.

'He's 42.625 inches at the shoulder,' said David. 'He's very very unique.'

According to David, George consumes 110lbs of food every month, and sleeps alone in his own Queen Size Bed. David and Christine raised George from when he was 7 weeks old, but never expected him to grow so big.

Magnificent: George measures more than 7ft from nose to tail and tucks away 110lbs of food every month

With size comes problems: The giant great dane barely fits in the back of his owner's SUV

The couple eventually had to move their aptly named dog out of their king sized bed, when he grew too large for the three of them to share the same sheets.

Dr. William Wallace of the Buena Pet Clinic in Tucson, who witnessed the documentation necessary for the Guinness record, said: 'In my 45 years of experience working with giant breed dogs, without question, George is the tallest dog I have ever seen.'

David is currently rushing to get that necessary documentation into Guinness as other dog owners are coming forth claiming the record. As they wait for the results to come through, George is busy occupying himself with his new found stardom and even has a Facebook fan page and Twitter accounts for his adorning fans. It appears as though the sky's the limit for this mammoth hound.

Paws for thought: George's giant feet dwarf his owner Dave Nassar's hand. Last August the worldís tallest dog, Gibson, a harlequin Great Dane, passed away from cancer
