Reshare Option Added in Google +

If you are an Android user, Google+ now lets people reshare posts.


One of the first things many users looked for in the Android app for using Google + was an option to reshare posts with others.


"The Google+ Android app update includes our No. 1 most requested mobile
feature, resharing posts,"


The feature is in Google+ for Android 1.0.6. To use it, users tap on a post, then tap on the three dots in
the upper right signifying actions they can take with it.


The "share" option lets people
share the post publicly or just to circles.


The feature stands to
significantly improve the activity on mobile devices, where it's often handy to forward an e-mail or retweet a tweet--activities that are a
lot easier than creating an original post from scratch.


The feature won't be limited to the Android app, of course.


"Don't worry, iOS and Web app folks,reshare is coming soon for you too!" added Punit Soni, the lead product
manager for Google+ games and mobile, in a Google+ post.


The new version also lets people create new circles,

Free Domain NameFree Domain Name

Domain names are used to
identify one or more IP addresses. For example, the
domain name microsoft.com
represents about a dozen IP
addresses. Domain names are
used in URLs to identify
particular Web pages. For
example, in the URL http://
www.facebook.com/
index.html, the domain name is
facebook.com
Every domain name has a suffix
that indicates which top level
domain (TLD) it belongs to. There are only a limited number of
such domains. For example:
gov - Government agencies
edu - Educational institutions
org - Organizations (nonprofit)
com - commercial
net - Network
In recent years, many new TLDs
have been deployed on the
Internet. Some of these are
intended for broad use
worldwide, while others are
designed to serve special
interest groups. Though not as
popular as the original TLDs
listed above, you may also
encounter some of these newer
domain extensions when
browsing the Web: .biz
.info
.jobs
.mobi
.name
.tel Besides the generic TLDs listed
above, the Internet also

for each country to help
organize Web sites within each
nation. These extensions are
named according to worldwide
standard two-letter country
codes similar to those used by
the postal system. Examples of
country code TLDs include:
.ng (Nigeria)
.br (Brazil)

.cn (mainland China)

All you have to do is to have an account with them, refer others to the site and take survey to get 190 points you will be given a coupen that you will use to claim you domain name.

Spot and Control Spoof on ebay

There are three main ways people
get ripped off when it comes to
trading on eBay. This includes .By a buyer .By a seller
.Stolen vital information through
fraudulent emails.
"phished" emails claiming to
be from ebay.
"Emails such as this, commonly
referred to as
"phished"
messages, are sent in an attempt
to collect sensitive personal or
financial information from the
recipients."
They look very much like regular
ebay emails, and are
usually telling you about a
"problem" with your account,
your password, your shipment,
your payment. The mail might come in this form: -Your credit card has been declined
-your payment for
seller fees can not be processed
-we are confirming your bid on
this outrageously priced item you would never want. It could be in any of these format or some thing close to them. The question now is
How can some one identify a spoof?
1. For starters, you need to know that anything that
throughly come from ebay will appears not
just in your regular email, but also in
your my messages on the ebay
site. Any email sent to your
registered eBay email address
from eBay or from another eBay
member via eBay's member-to-
member communication system
will now appear in My Messages.
Just remember, if you get an
email to your registered eBay
email address that looks like it's
from eBay about a problem with
your account or requesting
personal information, check My
Messages first. If it's not there,
it's a fake email.
B. Consider the link that accompanies the email even though the link in your
email reads ebay.com, if you hold your
cursor over the link (WITHOUT
clicking)
and look at the bottom left of
your browser window, you will
see the URL the link really sends
you to. It usually is something
like
ebaydotcomsomestupidnamedot
net. Ebay and paypal's URLs will
have a "/ " after .com if the
URL is long, not another com
name.
C. Your best solution when you
find an email that you are
unsure about? Click forward and
send it to spoof@ebay.com (if
the emails claims to be from
ebay) ebay team will get back to
you, usually within minutes,
letting you know if the email is
real or not. So why take chances?
Forward suspicious emails to
them and let them sort it out if
you are unsure.
D. Remember if there truly is a
problem with your ebay account you will always
be able to find that info out on
ebay websites. So
there is never a need to take a
chance with bogus emails.
Here is info from ebay on the
subject "If you still have any
doubt about whether an email
message is from eBay, please
forward it immediately to
spoof@ebay.com. Do not
respond to it or click any of the
links. Do not remove the original
subject line or change the email
in any way when you forward
it to us.
If you have already entered
sensitive personal information,
financial information, or your
password into a Web site based
on a request from a spoofed
email, you should take
immediate action to protect
your
identity and all of your online
accounts. We have developed an
eBay Help page with valuable
information regarding the steps
you should take to protect
yourself.

How to Choose The Right Domain Name

What has a keyword got to do with a
domain name?
Everything basically. The major search
engines, i.e Google being the largest,
use a series of algorithms that their
robots use to crawl the web for websites
to list. One of the known factors is the
domain name of your website.

So I should call my domain name www.kachiplumber.com?
You can, but this was based only on an assumption that's what people are typing
when searching for local plumbers. We need to use software that will analyse the
top search terms for Plumbers and onyekachi. There is no point choosing
plumbers onyekachi on the assumption it is right. What if that particular phrase
has no or little searches per day? It would be a waste of time using that name for
your domain name if nobody was even looking for it!

What software can find this out?
There are numerous software
packages out there that will find out
this information, but having used a
great deal of them I can recommend
one in particular. If you visit
www.marketsamurai.com you will be
able to download this software and
some very helpful video tutorials
absolutely FREE for a limited trial
period. This is a very comprehensive
internet marketing tool that I will explain in greater detail in future post.
