Best Android Applications


In the spirit of sharing, here’s my list of apps that I have right now on my phone:
  • Bump - I find this more useful for sharing images and apps than contact info. The biggest downside so far is that I rarely run into someone that I want to exchange contact info with that also has this app downloaded.
  • Dropbox - this is on my “can;t live without” list. This is an awesome way to share files.
  • Evernote - people rave about this one. I use it to notate things I don;t want to forget, but haven’t become a rabid user yet.
  • Finance - perfect for keeping an eye on the stock market. Needless to say it integrate perfectly with my Google Finance portfolios.
  • Foursquare - not 100% convinced this will always be on the list. I’m still in test mode.
  • Fring - it’s downloaded and ready to use. None of my friends have it, so I’m still waiting to use it.
  • Google Sky Map - very cool app. Would be even more cool if it weren’t foggy in San Diego every single night.
  • Yahoo! Messenger – I use Yahoo! IM a lot in my office. This works well for getting in touch with international colleagues. I refuse to spend money on texting people with international phone numbers.
  • Open Spot - I can see the potential value in this, but I don’t live in a crowded metropolitan city, so I’m not the ideal user.
  • OpenTable - the best way to make a dinner reservation.
  • Pandora – perfect way to listen to the exact music I want.
  • ScoreCenter – the easiest way to keep up with my hometown teams.
  • Seesmic - the best Twitter app for Android that I’ve used yet. I’m still waiting for Tweetdeck to give a damn.
  • Shazam – I use this all the time to find songs I want to put on my iPod.
  • Google Voice - I’m easing my way into this one. Right now I’m using it to screen calls and have custom voicemails for groups within my contacts.
  • Waze - a real-time crowdsourced traffic app. I love this concept and I’m doing my best to help these guys through their BETA phase. I think this has tons of promise.
  • Zillow - what better way to find out what practically any house is worth.

How to Evaluate A Website’s Performance very easily ??

plz Join this blog if it really helps you....

Here’s a list of basic questions I use when performing a website evaluation or audit on a client website. It gets more technical and geeky than this, but my hope is that this fives you a good idea of some of the things I do to help turn websites around.
GENERALquestions I ask directly of the owner, or team that runs the website
1. What are the goals of the website? I want to hear from the website’s brass what they are trying to accomplish. It’s not always obvious. And it’s not always what they should be trying to accomplish. Often time there aren’t even any goals.
2. What the history of the website? Tell me specific details about sales (or membership) trends?
3. What’s the history of the site’s SEO strategy? What effect has that had on the site’s performance?
4. Have there been any major traumatic events (like de-indexing or site outages)? How have those affected sales and performance?

5. What’s your keyword strategy? If they have a strategy, I’ll ask to see the latest data they’ve accumulated about what keywords they consider to be most valuable.
6. How well has the stated keyword strategy been implemented on the site?
7. What is your content strategy?
The rest of the questions are what I ask as I evaluate the website.
ON-PAGE SEO
8. Is there any meta data structure? If so, was it done properly?
9. Does the site use unique, intelligent, SEO-friendly page titling?
10. What does the site’s meta data and page titling say about the company’s grasp of keywords?
11. How SEO-savvy is the URL structure being used?
12. What’s the internal linking strategy?
13. How healthy is the code?
14. How much (if at all) is the code affecting the site’s ability to be indexed?
15. Are there any site maps?
16. Do any of the search engines know about their site maps?
17. Are there any RSS feeds?
18. Do the search engines know about their RSS feeds?
19. What does their Webmaster Tools Account reveal?
TRAFFIC
20. What are the traffic patterns (if any) in terms of volume?
21. How is traffic now compared to a historical average? Higher? Lower? Why?
22. Where’s the website’s traffic coming from?
23. Why is traffic coming from those sources? Is is because of link partnerships? Publicity? Blog mentions? Comments?
24. What percentage of the traffic is coming from organic search?
25. What percentage of traffic is coming from paid search?
26. What’s the relationship between the traffic source and the user’s behavior on the site (pageviews, time on site)?
27. What’s the relationship between the traffic source and the conversion rate?
28. In case of higher conversion, what can we learn that can be applied to other sources?
29. In cases of low conversion, why are people not converting into customers? What appears to be the roadblock?
KEYWORDS
30. What keywords does the website rank for?
31. What, specifically, are those ranks per keyword across all search engines?
32. Is there historical data to show how those ranks have changed?
33. What kind of penetration does the website have in organic search?
34. How does the site rank for the search terms they said they were targeting?
35. Are the keywords the website is targeting the right ones? If not, how much potential traffic is being missed as a result?
COMPETITION
36. What’s the state of competition in the industry? Who does the client think they are competing with?
37. According to search (not according to sales), who are they competing with?
38. What are their competitors doing better/worse than they are in terms of content strategy?
39. What do their competitor’s link profiles have that’s missing from our client’s website?


CONTENT & LINKS

40. What’s the state of inbound links?
41. Are the current inbound links helping or hurting?
42. According to the competitor data, are there immediate link-building opportunity?
Darn…didn’t make it to a nice even number like 50!
The answers to these questions help me put together an evaluation designed to help clients  get more qualified traffic and convert at a higher rate.

How to Add a Twitter Tab to Your Facebook Fan Page ?


Ever wonder how to automatically post your Tweets to their own separate tab on your Facebook Fan Page instead of on the Wall tab? Well, I’ve been trying to figure it out and finally did thanks to Involver.
Involver has a free and simple-to-install app called Twitter for pages that allows you to setup a separate Twitter tab on your Facebook fan page.
Here’s what you need to to do install it (it shouldn’t take more than a few minutes):
1. Make sure you are logged in to your Facebook account.
2. Visit the Involver app gallery and click “Install” in the Twitter app box.
3. From the dropdown, select the Fan Page that you want to install the Twitter tab to.
facebook-twitter-tab-1
4. Click the “Add Twitter for Pages” button.
facebook-twitter-tab-2
5. Fill out the form and click the “Save & Continue” button. The form asks for pretty basic info. Asking for your phone number is lame, but there’s no validation so you can put in a fake.
facebook-twitter-tab-3
6. Click the “Continue to Fan Page” button”
facebook-twitter-tab-4
7. Click the tab with the “+” on it and then select “Twitter” from the dropdown.
facebook-twitter-tab-5
That’s it. Complete those steps and you’re done. Every time you Tweet, it will automatically post to this new tab you created. From what I have experienced, it take a couple of hours for the tab to update.
Here’s what the Twitter tab looks like on the Fan Page I used in this example:
facebook-twitter-tab-6
Involver offers some premium services, but unfortunately doesn’t say what they are unless you contact them through a form. That’s unfortunate.
Give it a try and let me know what you think. By the way, this post is not an endorsement for the Involver Twitter app. I am not being compensated in any way for this post.

HOW TO: Choose and manage domains when you’re an entrepreneur ?


If you’re like me and own lots of domains for more than one business interest, you know that it can be challenging to keep everything organized (not just with domains, btw).
I’ve learned some valuable lessons about managing a portfolio domains. These are simple, but they’ll save you time and money down the road as your business interests grow and, ultimately, make it big.
1. When in doubt, buy them outThis one’s not so much about management, but it’s worth passing along. When your company is in the spitball phase of trying to come up with a winning name, buy every single domain you think has a chance of being the final pick. Here’s why: first, don’t ever leave it to chance that the domain will be available tomorrow. You never know who is watching. The last thing you want to do is to have to go pay someone for the domain you really want. Second, you may forget. Sounds dumb, but that stroke of genious you have can easily vanish into thin air because you’re attention got drawn to some other important detail. Buy that great name before it leaves your brain.
2. New company = new accountStarting a new company? Buy the domains under a separate account with your registrar. Don’t make the common mistake of buying every single domain via one account. Next thing you know you have 200 domains for 5 companies all under the same registrar’s account. Besides being a total nightmare to manage, here are some practical reasons why you want to keep things clean:
3. Get started on the right foot legally and with your partners
It’s better to show that your new business entity own the domains instead of you. The domains are assets after all. Plus, show your business partners that you’re not hoarding the domains yourself. Show everyone you’re a team player.
4. Make billing less complicated
Having all domains in one account can be a huge pain when it comes to billing. If you don’t have each company renewing it’s own domains, you’ll get into a situation where you need to renew and then be reimbursed. That’s a pain that can easily be avoided with separate accounts.
5.  Stay under the radar
I fully support the notion of keeping your startup in stealth mode until there’s actually something tangible to talk about. Stealth mode has to include keeping your WHOIS information either private or under the name of the company. The last thing an outsider should see is the CEO’s name on WHOIS. That’s not stealth. Separate accounts means you can manage separate identities easier.
6. Lord Google is watching
I’ve said it before, Google rules the world. In this case, you don’t want Google thinking you own a lot of domains. Being the entrepreneur that you are, there will probably come a day when your domains will need to link to each other. Having all of your domains under your name on WHOIS and all under one account (and one IP address) may lead Google to think you are trying to create a link farm. And if they think that, they might slap you. You don’t want that.
7. Easier transition
This is the most fun reason to keep your domains nice and neatly organized: when it comes time to sell the company, it’s about a billion times easier to transition the domains to the buyer when they are organized in their own account. Not to mention due diligence is much more efficient because you won’t have to pour through your master domain account looking for the domains the selling entity owns (and risk making a mistake). The last sale I was part of involved nearly 100 domains. We literally had them transfered in about 5 minutes thanks to being organized.
What are your thoughts? Any additional tips you want to add? Let’s discus in the comment section below.

How to install GUJARATI font in Facebook and chat box ??


    એના માટે આપના ક્મ્પ્યુટર પર કઈ ઑપરેટિંગ સિસ્ટમ છે એના પર વધારે આધાર રહે. જેમકે આપના કમ્પ્યુટર પર Microsoft Vista/ExP/ Widows7  છે એ જાણવું જરૂરી છે, આમ તો આ પધ્ધતિ સર્વ ઑપરેટિંગ સિસ્ટમ સાથે કોમ્પિટિબલ છે. પણ Microsoft Widows7 અને ExP સાથે વધારે સરળ છે. આ માટે તબક્કાવાર નીચે પ્રમાણે કરવા વિનંતિ છે.

(૧.)અહિં લિંક આપેલ છે એ વેબસાઈટ પર જાઓ. http://www.vishalon.net/Download.aspx

(૨.) અહિંથી PramukhIME NEW!Version: 1.1 Size: 522 KB Download  કરો. એફાઈલ ઝિપ ફાઈલ હોય. એને વિનઝીપ પ્રોગ્રામથી અમઝિપ કરવી પડશે. આ માટે વિન્ઝિપના પ્રોગ્રામ હોય છે જે મોટે ભાગે આપના કમ્પ્યુટર પર હશે જ, જો ન હોય તો એ અહિંથી ફ્રી ડાઉનલૉડ કરી શકાય. લિંકઃ http://download.cnet.com/WinZip/3000-2250_4-10003164.html

(૩) PramukhIME NEW!Version: 1.1 Size: 522 KB Download કરેલ એ અનઝિપ કરતા એક ફોલ્ડર ખુલશે એના પર PramukhIME લખેલ હશે. એના પર ડબલ ક્લિક કરો કે એને ઓપન કરો. એમ કરતા બીજા ચાર આઈકોન આપના સ્ક્રિન પર દેખાશે. એમાંથી એક આઇકોન પર PramukhIME.exe લખેલ હશે એના પર ડબલ ક્લિક કરો. એને આપના મોનિટર પર સેવ કરો.અને રન કરો. એટલે આપના કમ્પ્યુટર પ્રમુખ આઇએમઈ ઇન્સ્ટોલ થઈ જશે. અને આપના સ્ક્રિન/મોનિટર પર જમણે ખૂણે ભાષાનો આઈકોન દેખાશે.  જે સામાન્ય રીતે આકાશી રંગનો હોય છે. ત્યાંથી આપ જે લિપિમાં લખવા ચાહતા હો એ પસંદ કરી લખવાનું શરૂ કરો.


આ સિસ્ટમ વિન્ડોઝ ૭ સાથે સરસ ચાલે છે. મારા કમ્પ્યુટર પર માઈક્રોસોફ્ટ સેવન છે. વિસ્ટા સાથે પણ સારું છે. એક્ષપીમાં એક ફોન્ટ ઇન્સ્ટોલ કરવા પડે. અથવા તો બાય ડિફોલ્ટ આપની સિસ્ટમ સાથે હોય પણ ખરા. એ ફોન્ટનો પ્રકાર છે Arial Unicode MS. પણ આ ફોન્ટ ફક્ત માઈક્રોસોફ્ટ વર્ડ કે એક્ષલ, કે પાવર પોઈન્ટમાં ગુજરાતી લિપિમાં લખવા માટે જરૂરી છે. ફેઈસબુક પર ગમે એ બ્રાઉઝરમાં
( ફાયરફોક્ષ, એક્ષપ્લોરર,સફારી કે ગુગલ ક્રોમમાં) તો શ્રુતિ ફોન્ટ બાય ડિફોલ્ટ હોય છે. જે આ પધ્ધતિ મારફત લખાતી સાતે ય લિપિ માટે યોગ્ય છે.

આ રીતે આપ માઈક્રોસોફ્ટ વર્ડ, એક્ષલ, પાવરપોઇન્ટ વગેરેમાં પણ ગુજરાતી લખી શકશો. યાદ રાખવાના મુદ્દાઓ.

૧. )જ્યારે કમ્પ્યુટર રિસ્ટાર્ટ કરો ત્યારે બાય ડિફોલ્ટ અંગ્રેજી ટાઈપ થશે. અને ગુજરાતી ટાઈપ કરવા/લખવા માટે પ્રમુખ આઈએમઈ દર રિસ્ટાર્ટ વખતે રન કરવું પડે. માટે બને તો એને ડેસ્ક્ટોપ પર સેવ કરો. જેથી ધારો ત્યારે રન કરી શકો.

૨.) કિબોર્ડ પર શરતચુકથી કેપ્સ લોક ન થાયે એ ધ્યાનમાં રાખશો. કારણ કે શિફ્ટ કિ મારફત અલગ શબ્દો ગુજરાતી રચાય છે. આપ કોઈ કમ્પ્યુટરના જાણકારની મદદ લઈ શકો છો. આ પધ્ધતી વાયરસ ફ્રી છે, અને સેઈફ છે. સુરક્ષિત છે. આશા છે કે આપ સહુ ગુજરાતીમાં લખી શકશો. અને ચાહો તો આપણી રાષ્ટ્રિય ભાષા हिन्दीમાં પણ લખી શકશો.

તો મારા વ્હાલા મિત્રો, શરુ કરો ગુજરાતી/હિન્દીમાં લખવાનુ અત્યારથી જ.

અંગ્રેજી કિબોર્ડનો ક્યો અક્ષર ક્યો ગુજરાતી અક્ષર બને એનું ચિત્ર પણ સામેલ છે.

How to tell who has been logging into your yahoo Account ??


We know there is much concern now as to how accounts, such as your Yahoo! account can be accessed by people not authorized to do so. Yahoo! is also concerned about this and has a new feature now that can give your key information about each login your Yahoo! account has had over the last several days. The feature is called "Login Activity" and here is how it works:
  1. Please go to the Yahoo! Account Info website. ( http://account.yahoo.com ) Note: You may be asked to log in to your Yahoo! account.
  2. Towards the middle of the page under "Sign-in and Security" select View your recent login activity.
  3. You should now be able to see all the login activity for your account for the past few days. If you feel you need to go back further, then click View More towards the bottom of the page.
Once you get there, you'll see four columns:
  • Date/Time: This indicates the date and time the account was accessed.
  • Access Type: This is the method of access such as a browser (IE, Firefox, Chrome etc..), a mobile device, or a Yahoo! product like Yahoo! Messenger
  • Event type – This shows exactly how the login took place
  • Location/ IP Address - This is actually a drop-down menu that allows you to select how you wish the physical location to be displayed. (Location is selected as the default.)
    • Location - Indicated the Country and State (if in the US) of the computer you logged in from
    • IP Address - Indicates the Internet Protocol Address of the computer you logged in from.
These may be signs that your account has been compromised:
  • You normally access from just one or two computers but you see multiple geographic locations.
  • The Access Type column shows your account was accessed from a mobile device but you never use mobile to access your account.
If you see anything here that looks suspicious to you, we recommend that you change your account password. It is the easiest way to prevent suspicious activity.
You can also create a Yahoo! sign-in seal, to prevent such illegal activity such as Spam and Phishing.

what is CAPTCHA ??


Yahoo! has enabled a challenge-response test to determine whether the user for Mail is human. "CAPTCHA" is an acronym for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart" trademarked by Carnegie Mellon University.

You may receive the CAPTCHA Send-Verify prompt if your message contains any of the following items:
  •  HTML
  •  Links
  •  Embedded graphics
  •  Attachments
  •  Forwarded messages (chain letters, jokes, etc.)
To confirm this, try sending a "Plain Text" message with no signatures or attachments to the same recipient. If you are not prompted with the CAPTCHA Send-Verify screen or the email arrives as expected, then the issue is most certainly related to one of the items listed.

Note: Please note that per the Yahoo! Mail Terms of Service  (TOS) the following are prohibited:
  •  Transmission of "junk mail," "spam," "chain letters," or unsolicited mass distribution of email.
  •  Transmission of material that is unlawful.
  •  Transmission of material that is harassing, abusive, threatening, harmful, vulgar, obscene, or invasive of another's privacy.
If the issue persists, please try sending a message using a PC and complete the CAPTCHA verification if prompted. If you do not have access to a PC, please let us know and we can send a message for you.

Why can't I use my security questions to reset my password?


In an effort to prevent accounts from being compromised, we've introduced a feature that prevents your secret questions from being used to obtain a password using the online password reset flow. This is a protection measure designed to keep your Yahoo! account secure. This feature is enabled when you haven't accessed your account recently and an attempt to receive a password using the secret questions is performed.

If you no longer have access to the alternate email address or the mobile number on file, you can request to use your secret questions within our online password reset flow. Once requested, you can attempt to verify your secret questions in 24 hours. 
To learn more about account security, please visit the Yahoo! Security Center.
NOTE: If you are unable to use your security questions to reset your password after 24 hours, you will need to contact Yahoo! Customer Care for further assistance.

Login Activity - Seeing multiple alerts in my Login Activity


There are a few reasons why these alerts will show up even if the events were performed by yourself.

These include:
  • You’ve been traveling
  • You’re using a Mobile device or Application
  • Your residential Internet Service Provider has changed the IP Address used to route your traffic

If you're confident that the alerts you’re seeing are from someone other than yourself, this may be an indication that your account has been compromised.

Update your Account Information

Be sure to change your password and/or change your Secret Questions. For additional security, you may want to consider adding an Alternate Email Address or mobile number to your account. Users that have an Alternate Email Address or mobile number associated with their account receive notifications of all account changes as well as provide a method for password recovery.

Check for Malware

Malware, also called badware, is malicious software that attempts to steal sensitive information from your computer, send spam, or commit fraud. This type of software is often bundled with other free downloads without your knowledge. Be sure to run a scan on your computer with a trusted anti-virus software. If the scan detects any suspicious programs or applications, get rid of them immediately.

What is password phishing?


"Phishing" is term that describes an attempt to steal important online information, such as passwords and private account information. Phishers can set up "fake" web sites or email that look exactly like those of trusted companies (such as Yahoo!) to trick unsuspecting users into disclosing information such as a user name and/or password. These pages can look nearly identical to the "real thing", so it can be hard to tell that you are on a fraudulent site. (This is also called "spoofing")
In the event you feel you have been "phished" we recommend you immediately change your password. Then, you should report the abuse to the company whose website or email was being spoofed.

Error Message: "Invalid Password" received after entering a correct password


We find there are typically three causes of receiving this message:
  1. It could be an incorrectly entered password.
  2. There could be issues with your Internet Browser
  3. Your account may have been compromised.
Here are some helpful ideas on how to help out in each:
If you think you could have typed your password incorrectly, please check the following:
  • Is your CAPS LOCK key on? Passwords are case-sensitive, which means that "PASSWORD," "PaSsWoRd," and "password" are seen by Yahoo! as three different passwords. Try typing your password again, making sure to use uppercase and lowercase letters where necessary.
  • Did you sign in with the correct Yahoo! ID? Make sure that you are using the correct Yahoo! ID when signing in to your account. If you have forgotten your Yahoo! ID, you can request it here.
  • Have you changed your password within the last 24 hours? If you recently requested a new password or changed your password, wait 24 hours before typing your new password. If you’ve entered your password too many times, you’ll be locked out of your account for 24 hours. This is a Yahoo! security feature designed to protect your account.
If you feel that your browser may be causing these issues, please try the following:
  • Before you change your password, clear your browser’s cache, close your browser, then go to the Yahoo! Sign In page,  and carefully type your password again. For instructions on how to clear your cache, follow the instructions in the online help for your browser. ( Internet ExplorerSafariChromeFirefox )
  • If that does not work, then please Try another browser. If you’re using Firefox, try Internet Explorer instead.
Still having problems?
If you are certain that the issue is neither your password or your browser, it is totally possible that the reason you are still having difficulty may be because your account may have been compromised. If you feel like youraccount may have been compromised, please use our online password recovery process. After you receive your new password, you will be able to access your account and set the password of your choosing.
Note: The best way to assure your account's security is to regularly change your password. We know that Yahoo! users that frequently change their password rarely have account security issues.

Additional Information
Note: Yahoo! does not keep records of your passwords, we will not be able to provide you with any information regarding a past or present password.
These steps are also helpful if you have forgotten, lost or can't remember your password

If you forget your Yahoo! ID or password, please visit the Yahoo! Password Helper. We have found that this wizard will resolve the majority of password and Yahoo! ID issues.
If you require further assistance, you will need to provide three of the following pieces of information:
  • Your birthday.
  • The ZIP or postal code on record in your Yahoo! account.
  • The alternate email address on file for your account.
    • Note: You must have access to this email address.
  • The Country code on record in your Yahoo! account.
Be sure to provide the same information you provided the last time you registered for a new Yahoo! ID or password or the last time you updated your account.

If you forgot your password, you can create a new one. Please provide the following information so that we can confirm your identity:
  • Your Yahoo! ID.
  • Either your alternate email address, mobile phone number, or the answers to your secret questions.
A "Reset Your Password" link will be sent to your alternate email address. Click the link and enter your new password into the "Reset Your Password" page.

To ensure the security of your account, please understand that we cannot provide your Yahoo! ID or reset your password if you are unable to correctly answer your secret questions.
If you wish to try and restore your password from a Mobile Phone or other SMS device, please see our article entitled Recovering a Forgotten or lost password from a Mobile Phone, which will walk you through the steps.
If you find that none of these suggestions resolve your issues, please click Contact Yahoo! on the far right and our Customer Care team will be happy to assist you. (You will still need to provide some Account Verification information.)
