Ok, let me explain the theory of PTC to you guys just in case you might be wondering..
First of all, PTC sites have 3 main characters - The owners, The buyers, and The sellers..
I’ll explain the role of each of this characters..

The owners
These guys are responsible in getting business for the PTC site, maintaining it, make sure it is attractive all the time, and perform all managerial tasks. They have to make sure their PTC site is always achieving the target and goals set by a PTC site. Keeping the sellers and the buyers busy is the prime objective. They have to work their way out to make the site smooth and always active. Support and payment is usually the major concern which makes a PTC site alive.

The buyers
These are the advertisers. Why they use PTC sites, I will explain in the later part.

The sellers
The clickers. Their prime objective - money! None of the clickers are in a PTC site for the ads. They are there for one sole reason - money! In most cases, users will click the ads and proceed with their job until they click the next ad and do the same thing again.

Then how does this PTC work at all?

Each of the characters have their own goals to achieve and being on a PTC site, everyone will achieve it. And every character is reciprocal and interconnected. The seller gets their money, the buyers get their site advertised, and the owner gets the site running. The good thing about PTC is, it delivers a huge amount of traffic to your site in an instant and for as long as you are advertising with them. However, once the advertising stops, the traffic rate drops. Though it does, eventually there will be a slight daily increase in traffic with interested users who finally recieve the message accurately. There is little or no possibility that your site will not be visited again in the future.

The advertisements displayed on a PTC plays a big role for all characters. If you want to advertise your site on a PTC, there are several rules you should apply. First, your site must be catchy. Something that will attract people to read what is it about. This role is performed by the design, the structure and he management of the PTC site. It’s a quick way to promote your product with immediate unique visitors per day. Second, your site must be fast loading. This counts in a good webhosting which provide powerful connection to the server. You must remember, average PTC sites view the ads for just 30 seconds and if your site doesnt load completely in that period of time, its a loss for you. Though new scripts have implemented scripts that will wait till the site is totally loaded before the timer begins, there is a slight hack for slow sites over this matter and in most cases, users will just quit waiting and move on to the next site. So its a downside for you to have a slow loading time for your website. Third, your site must be straightforward! Your message must be clear and your product must be immediately advertised. This is the most important fact for advertising on PTC sites. Almost all users will NOT click the links within an advertised site. As I said earlier, they wont even bother to look at the site sometimes. So if your site has too much information, the message will not be delivered successfully and this is a downside for you.

What is the benefit to The owners?
Simple - Money! How they make the bucks? Usually, there will be a price for a certain amount of hits. Lets say, for 1000 hits, they price the traffic at $50. They will give 1 cent per view to the seller and if there are premium services, it might go up as high as 1.5 cents or maybe even 2 cents. So, doing the maths, 1000 hits for 2 cents (we take the bigger figure for maximum approach) will make them pay 2000 cents to The sellers. This is $20. Where does the $30 go? You are right! The owners! 1000 clicks are easily achieved in a day for solid PTC sites. So if 30 ads achieve 1000 hits in a day, you do the maths

That, is the fundamental of a PTC site! Any questions, you may ask me in the comments section.

In 2006, the government of Malaysia launched a war against the Black Metal (considered as metal) music. Led by JAKIM (Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia) this war was believe to be one of the holy war against the metalist because they believe that the music that these genre creates, brings the youth towards damnation. So during that year, the war against the metalist fans begins.

The first wave of the war begins with the banning of all of the metal music and albums throughout the whole region. The media played a big role in this one since the audience are notified with the war through them. Cds, Cassettes and dvds were confiscated and none are out for the public. That led to the draught of doom. Metallist had to download their music instead of supporting their favourite band by purchasing the albums and sorts.

The second wave was a big one because they started to raid the local metal gigs and performances and sent those kids that went and perform to that performance to a rehabilitation center. In this center, kids are brainwashed and told that god exists and they are here to serve him. Big punishments awaits them if they disobey him. Those are the things that they did back then to the metal bands, medias (Cds, Dvds, cassetes and so forth) and also fans.

Ironic to what is happening right now because if you can see, the songs that they aired on the radio nowdays are as much filth as the metal music before! And yet, no action has been taken towards these kind of music scene, lifestyle and medias. This music that I am talking about is the rap and r&b. No explanation needed because I am going to copy and paste over what the lyrics are all about. Here is the lyrics from the song that is currently famous and aired on the radio almost everyday! Lil Wayne feat Static - Lollipop (click to listen)

Make her wanna lick the wrapper (What’d you do?)
She she like me like a lollipop
So I let her lick the rapper

From the song lyrics above, all I can say is that the whole song is about sex. Which is worse something that our religion and beliefs are against. Why are they still on the radio? I am very confused. Shouldn’t they do anything? Like banning these type of music or something like that? Pretty bias I would say.

In this report, I would like to conclude that no matter what that music sounds like or means, it is always up to that individual. It is not about the music. Music is a source of entertainment. The banning of metal music shouldn’t been done in the first place. Be more liberal with it. Think outside of the box.

Google, Facebook, YouTube, Adidas, Nike, McDonalds - When I even mention about these names, you already have the picture in your mind. How? Trust me, if Google was not a brand, you would be laughing your way at the name. What about Facebook? It doesnt even mean anything. But what makes people remember them? The BRAND!

There are several core elements that drive the branding force in creating a super brand. However, combining all and coming out with something is still susceptible. Missing out any of them will make the brand weak.

Color
Color can definitely play a big role in branding. There have been researches conducted to understand the effect of color on a brand. One of the most famous example I have is for food outlets. Just like McDonalds as they use RED for the branding. It is researched that red color will eventually make a person feel hungry when there is such exposure. I was initially amused when I read about it sometime about 2 years ago. But that did not end it all. I tried to see the effect. Apparently, it really does work! One day, I was walking by in a complex for window shopping. I saw the Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) emblem not far from where I was standing, and it really kicked my stomach. A random thought of “It would be nice to have KFC for lunch” came in my mind and I ended up at their restaurant. Though initially I wasnt hungry, I ended up eating the Snack plate easily! However, red may not be necessary for your brand. If you know how to manipulate and contrast the colors, you can make a nice brand for yourself. What is important, the colors must then be used everywhere you place your brand. Ask a kid about brands that use red color. I bet they will say either “Coca-Cola” or “McDonalds”.

Emblem / Logo
Emblem is what creates the “impression” of the brand. While it is not necessary to use something directly related to your brand, it must be something that others don’t use - which describes UNIQUE. Take Alienware as an example. Their logo is the head of an alien. It does not have anything to do with their products. But the power of its brand is, when geek see the glowing Alien head anywhere, they will immediately know that it is the Alienware’s brand. Emblem can be very powerful too. Just like Alienware, you dont have to tell your company name. Just show the emblem, and they will know what company it stands for. Its how it manipulates the impression of the company.

Name
Another core component is the NAME of the brand. There is no brand with no name. How do you select a name of the brand? This can be rather challenging. First, look at your product. Then start thinking out of the box. Often, companies pay hundreds of thousands of money just to get a nice name for the brand they make. Because if your brand holds a nice name, it will be remembered forever. One trick to do this is to name your brand with something that is easy to spell and pronounce. Brands like Sony, Apple, Google and Norton are spelled “as is” and sweet to pronounce. Which explains why they are very well-known successful brands. There are brands which people will tend to forget overtime due to their spellings. I wouldn’t specify any here as it would just degrade the brand.

These are the CORE components of branding of course. There are other aspects that boost up branding but combining these three, you can come out with a powerful enough brand for your company. If you need ideas, I might be able to give some on a designer’s perspective.

Cheers

MP3 management is essential for those who don’t just love music, but keep a library of audio files in their desktop. It is important to have a good management of your music files when you have gigs of bytes of music in your library. What is even more important, is to have the Perfect application to do the job for you. I have tried several applications for my music management and keep changing them as they do not feed me with what I really need for my music management. I’ve tried Windows Media Player, iTunes, WinAmp, MusicMatch Jukebox, Helium Music Manager, and tonnes more to name. The biggest problem I face is, one application lacks a feature to another and I just couldn’t find something that could fit everything in ONE application. The last one I was using was iTunes since I just got my iPOD player. It almost had everything I need until I realized there are a lot of features that I need to unlock by registering to iTunes Store - which, apparently is not supported in my country. Well, these testing came to an end when I finally got my hands on MediaMonkey - by far the BEST MP3 management tool any music enthusiast should have!

So, what’s so cool about MediaMonkey at all? Let us see, where should we begin from? ID3 tags management, AlbumArt updates, Podcasts, iPOD and other music gadget support, Net Radio, Automatic MP3 management, what more could you ask from an MP3 management application?! Now, MediaMonkey offers ample enough features for an average user, but there is an option to upgrade to GOLD for $20 - which, believe me, will be worth every cent you spend on it! MediaMonkey manages lots of music format - not just MP3 of course. Support for Ogg, AAC, eAAC, WMA, MP4, and almost all major music formats is included. I wouldn’t want to break the excitement of course, so why not, give it a try yourself? Download MediaMonkey at www.mediamonkey.com

Album Art addition to MP3 files
Among the most favorite feature that I like in MediaMonkey is the Album Art management. You can either manually upload the Album Art to it or let MediaMonkey do the job for you. Most of u are lazy bums, so I guess I will explain the latter method. Its very easy, trust me! First of all, open the MediaMonkey console, and add your music files to the console. Then, go to the “Album” icon. Select the album that you want to add the AlbumArt (one at a time). Once it is highlighted, hit “Ctrl + L” and the popup will load. Here, it will look up the ID3 tags, and the AlbumArt for the selected album. Check the boxes you want to update your MP3 file with, and hit Auto-Tag. The rest will be done by MediaMonkey itself Simple eh? However, the results might be distorted if your MP3 files are not named properly. I still would give it a 87% accuracy which I achieved for my complete MP3 library. Which is great of course for 8GB of music files. This is very useful for those who can’t register an account on iTunes Store. So, get a copy of MediaMonkey for yourself and start enjoying it just like I am enjoying it. And dont forget to upgrade it to GOLD! Believe me, it’s worth it!

In Amsterdam, a shoplifter turned himself into the local police as he left a crucial evidence while he was dashing out for his escape during his shoplifting heist. Battled his way to his car, this 45 years old thief stole a packet of meat in the local supermarket. On his way to his car, the store workers tried to stopped him but he managed to fled to his car and drove away instantly…

The saddest thing was, while he was busy trying to flee himself, he forgotten about his 12 years old son. After the thief left, the police managed to get some information from the boy and the next couple of days later, the thief turned himself in.

So… The moral of the story is, leave your kids at home if you want to steal something! Hahahaha… Hope that you guys enjoyed the story. Its a true story by the way! Cheers!

Yes boys and girls!!!
Just when we thought that the American Most Wanted man is dead! No!! He is ALIVE!!! Atleast I think that he is. Anyways, Osama Bin Laden has just come up with his latest audio message in conjunction of the fifth anniversary of the US invasion over Iraq. How sweet right? Doesnt that make us go awww, our heart goes warm and fuzzy?

Anyways….
He just came up with this new audio message that urges the Palestinians militants to join the war in Iraq! Woohoo!! Crazy right? In his messages he did say about couple of things. Mostly urging the Muslims all around the world to unite and fight the evil force! Wooo!!! Hahaha..

“The nearest jihad battlefield to support our people in Palestine is the battlefield of Iraq”
“Palestine cannot be retaken by negotiations and dialogue, but with fire and iron”
“The people of the blessed land should sense the great favour God has bestowed upon them and do what they should do to support their mujahideen brothers in Iraq”
“It is a great opportunity and a major duty for my brothers the Palestinian emigrants [in Arab countries], between whom and jihad on the plains of Jerusalem a barrier has been built” these are some of the main points in his audio message. As I mentioned earlier, the messages are mostly urging the Muslims to unite and fight the evil force.

The CIA has already confirmed that the voice from the recording is indeed the voice of Osama bin Laden and he is believed to be hiding in the hills and caves at the border of Afghanistan and Pakistan. Poor fellow huh? For all that we know, he might be living live to the fullest in UK right now?!

Anyways, Ill keep you guys updated with his latest story! Have a good holiday guys! Easter is coming right up!!

Phew, after so long, the site has been down, its finally up again. Screw Trexhost for their lame services! Their server went down, and I had to go high-low to get my data back. Now what I have here is still not the latest updates, but Im thinking of a revamp now. I got myself my own VPS, will be starting webhosting and designing services soon. Then, this blog will have a polish

Everyday, new domains are setup with hammering offers being made on the internet. And we, the victims fall trap to these monkeyshines, end up paying for nothing. Some offers made sound ridiculous (*ehem* they actually ARE absurd) and yet we instigate ourselves to believe these. What should we do? How can we categorize which is fool and which is foolproof?
Some (if not all) of these site owners have just one reason for the whole course of action – MONEY! They convince you with sweet words first, and once they get your money, you realize that you don’t get even a dime of what they promised earlier. Read the rest of this entry »
