Great Business and Technology Resource: Fresh New Blogger Brain to Pick!

Sometimes, while sifting through the congested amount of blogs on technology (ahem…this blog for example) it’s difficult to find quality, fresh, innovative information and guides to the ever growing industry. In particular, I find it very difficult to find quality information and view points on business and internet marketing. If you’re looking for a new perspective and some invaluable information, check out The BizMark Tech Blog.

BizMark Tech is owned and operated by “Deb” who’s website goal and motto is

Highlighting some interesting information on business, marketing and technology in a ‘non-technical’ manner. In other words, in basic context that everyone can understand…not so many details that the information becomes overwhelming to the regular non-technical person.

She does just this, in all the facets of internet, technology, advertising, internet business and marketing that anyone involved in the industry should stay up to date on. What I like best about her blog is that every post, within every category, realizes an ultimate goal of communicating a centralized idea, tip, tool or resource. Also, staying true to her goal of communicating in a non-technical manner that is easy to understand, she uses real world examples and possible scenarios that better serve her points.

Her entries are not fluff; they are packed to the brim with to the point internet and business trends analysis, tutorials, guides and more.

To highlight one of her latest posts, titled, “Keeping Your Brand on a Customer’s Mind.” In it, she discusses the concept of pushing your sales and client base through branding. But, instead of giving the reader mind numbing statistics and dictionary definitions, she focuses on a company she recently encountered that happened to stick strong in her mind and make a positive impression. What better way to begin to understand branding then by understanding other brands that make consumers tick?

You can check out her blog at http://www.bizmarktech.com/. don’t forget to go through her categories on the right, they’re packed full of more information!

WordPress Bloggers: Security Risk

Wordpress just released information on a security risk within one of their installation versions. They highly recommend upgrading your Wordpress installation. A hacker gained access to the Wordpress.org server and modified the installation two files in WP to include code that would allow for remote PHP execution.

Does this affect you?

Apparently the hack only exists in the Wordpress installation version 2.1.1. If you downloaded this version, you NEED to upgrade your wordpress installation to 2.1.2 immediately.

Visit Wordpress.org to install the new version and read more about this security risk within Wordpress

Good News?

Upgrade your computer. Participate to get a Free* laptop.

Wordpress caught this security risk within days, as the story states that the security risk had only been 3-4 days before they posted the warning for all Wordpress users.

Thanks Wordpress, another open source software solution offering not only free software to ANYONE, but great support as well. :)

Make Money by Blogging with Blogitive

Article about the best new program online. Blogitive.com

Blogitive pays the blogger, website owner, content writer, etc. for every post that they write. This is by far one of the best opportunities for bloggers to make money off their blog instead of waiting patiently to monetize, affiliatize and advertise on their blog. The program makes it easy for any blogger to sign up and start making money of writing blog entries.

There aren’t many rules that apply to the program, but here are some basic guidelines:

It doesn't have to be an article or even very long...Actually it only needs to be at least 100 words. It also should contain the link specified in the instructions, and have at least two posts in between each blogitive post. You do have to be approved first, which isn't too difficult. And, after being approved, you're ready to go!

Blogitive is going to begin new programs for bloggers and writers to make money, including ghost writing opportunities and news headline ads being available to place right on your site. I’ve had tremendous ease with this program, and if their new programs are at all similar to their current offers, I would like to RSVP please!

New York City has it's own Personal Blog

The New Yorke Magazine online contains all the information and archives straight from the Mag's mouth. And, for a long time, the different sections of the Magazine had their own personal blogs, discussing some of the newest headlines for the week, and voicing opinions as well. These are all available on the web at http://nymag.com, and are maintained by editors and columnists, so the info is interesting, intelligent and relevant.

But, just recently the New York magazine has created a blog for the "Intelligencer" Portion. Full of all the interesting and posh deals from the section in the magazine, and even more jam packed with opinion and witty slays and rejoices concerning theatre, music, and the life style.
