Password Manager Reviews – RoboForm vs Lastpass
Keeping track of all the passwords you use for the many internet sites you visit is a real problem.
For the past few years, I’ve used RoboForm – which is regarded as the best password manager and form filler available.
I recently stopped using it. Here’s why.
Internet Marketing Classes
Internet Marketing is a generic term that means selling goods and services on the internet.
There are dozens of different methods of doing this, but all of them boil down to having knowledge of a base level set of internet related skills. So you either learn them yourself, or pay someone else to do them.
Many people have asked me to teach them the required skills, but this is just not cost effective. So I’ve been looking around for an inexpensive, comprehensive course to recommend to you. I’ve please to announce that I’ve finally found one.
Livescribe – a MAGIC Pen?
You are at an important meeting or lecture.
And you’re jotting down notes to remind you of what is being said.
Now imagine that three months later, what was said at that meeting become of vital importance to you.
So you just go back to the notes you made, touch your pen onto the notes you made, and you immediately hear the actual words that were being spoken while you were making the notes.
Magic? – Pretty much!. but that’s just one example of what you can do with the Livescribe “Pulse” Smartpen.
Picasa 3.5 now Identifies FACES in your photos. VERY cool!!
I’ve been using the free Photo management program “Picasa” for the management of my photos for ages.
It’s the best application I’ve used for removing red eye, sending pics by email, making albums, etc. etc.
The latest version, 3.5 now adds many new features like geotagging and face recognition.
I LOVE face recognition. Picasa scans your hard drive for photos, and presents you with the faces. You then start putting names to the faces, and google will start building albums of the photos where a particular face appears.
As you provide feedback on the selections it makes, it gets more and more accurate with its identification.
After the process finishes, you can click on someones name, and see all the photos in which that person appears. You can then export these to a folder, make a slideshow and upload it to YouTube, or perform various other tasks with them.
If you are already using Picasa – grab the upgrade.
If you’ve never used it before, download it and prepare to have all your photo management problems solved.
Download it free from www.Picasa.com
Cheers, Eric G.

Unlikely Internet Success Stories
LO,
Pretty well anything can be promoted successfully on the internet if you are creative about it.
Even if it’s unsexy and boring.
Exhibit 1: Blendtec
Consider the problem faced by Tom Dickson, founder of Blendtec.
He makes home blenders. Hardly an exciting item.
Here’s what he did to promote blender sales for his ailing company.
