Kissing Sensation

TAIPEI, TAIWAN - A Taiwanese woman's ambition to kiss 100 men in Paris has become an overnight web sensation after she provided details of the quest on her much-visited blog.

Yang Ya-ching, a 27-year-old music major living in the French capital, has so far notched up 54 smooches, she said on her blog, which features photos of some of the encounters.

Collaborators in her project included a factory worker, a model, an Italian tourist and even a soldier visiting the capital of romance for Bastille Day.

"I came up with the idea three years ago," she said on her blog.

"Three of my four friends who were aware of the plan warned me that I might wind up getting slapped rather than kissed."

Yang, who plans to write a book about her kissing experiences, has attracted 1.97 million visitors to her blog
(www.wretch.cc/blog/angelduck777/24982946), including more than 224,000 on Monday alone.

"Aren't you afraid of catching a disease?" one of her followers asked.

"No," she replied. "The more you're afraid of, the less you accomplish." --AFP

Trend of the trends are Google Trends

About Google Trends for Websites

With Google Trends for Websites, you can get insights into the traffic and geographic visitation patterns of your favorite websites. You can compare data for up to five websites and view related sites and top searches for each one.

1. How does Google Trends for Websites work?

When you enter the address of a website into the search box, Trends for Websites shows you a graph reflecting the number of daily unique visitors (the number of people who visit a website) to that website. You can see these numbers on the graph after you've signed into your Google Account. Under the graph, you'll also see a list of regions where visitors originated from, other websites that they have also visited, and terms they have also searched for.

2. How is the data in Trends for Websites generated?

Trends for Websites combines information from a variety of sources, such as aggregated Google search data, aggregated opt-in anonymous Google Analytics data, opt-in consumer panel data, and other third-party market research. The data is aggregated over millions of users, powered by computer algorithms, and doesn't contain personally identifiable information. Additionally, Google Trends for Websites only shows results for sites that receive a significant amount of traffic, and enforces minimum thresholds for inclusion in the tool. For more information about how Google protects privacy, please refer to our privacy policy.

3. How often is the data updated?

The information provided by Trends for Websites is refreshed periodically to keep the data relevant. The data in the three columns under the main graph is based on the last 30 days since our most recent data update.

4. How accurate is the information provided by Trends for Websites?

Although Trends for Websites is a Google Labs product, we'll keep working to improve our estimates over time.

5. When will this tool be available for other countries or languages?

Currently, Trends for Websites is only available in English. We hope to roll out the tool into other languages in the future.

Using Google Trends for Websites

6. What are the different components of Trends for Websites?

The data depicted on the main graph reflects unique visitors, or the number of people who visit a website in a one day period.

Under the Regions column, the data reflects the percentage of visitors to the website from each geographic region.

The Also visited and Also searched for columns depict correlation, showing other websites and other search terms that the site's visitors are likely to visit and search for. 7. How many websites can I compare at one time?

You can compare up to 5 websites at one time. Use a comma in between each website to separate them. It isn't necessary to include the www prefix, but be sure to include the domain (such as .com or .net).

8. How can I view data for a specific country or time frame?

Once you've entered in a website, you'll see a graph and a list of related websites and search terms. Using the drop-down menu right above the graph, you can narrow the data down by region or time frame.

9. How is the data ranked?

The data is ranked by the first website you've entered into the search box. This means that the list of regions where visitors came from, other sites they visited, and search terms those visitors have in common, are all ranked according to your first website's data.

To change how the data is ranked, use the drop-down menu next to Ranked by:

10. Are all websites included?

No. Not all websites are included in Trends for Websites. The following types of websites may not appear in the tool:

Websites with low traffic volume below our threshold

Websites that don't wish to be indexed by Google and have indicated their preference through a robots.txt exclusion file

Websites that don't adhere to our Quality Guidelines

Other websites for miscellaneous reasons

11. Is it possible to see results for part of a website?

No. At this time, Trends for Websites will only show results for websites at the domain level. If you enter a subdomain such as subdomain.example.com into the search box, it will be converted to example.com instead.

12. Can I export the data?

The ability to export the data isn't available at this time.

13. Can I use the information I find on Google Trends for Websites?

You're free to use any of the information you find on Trends for Websites for your own purposes, but before you do, check out our Terms of Use. If you choose to use the information, please make sure to appropriately attribute it to Google

Information for Website Owners

14. My website doesn't appear on Trends for Websites. Is there a way to include my site?

At this time, it isn't possible to request inclusion of your site into Trends for Websites; there may be several reasons why your website isn't appearing. Read Are all websites included? for more information.

15. My website's information in Trends for Websites doesn't match my own data. Why?

It's important to keep in mind that all results from Trends for Websites are estimated. Moreover, the data is updated periodically, so recent changes in traffic data may not be reflected. Finally, keep in mind that Trends for Websites is a Google Labs product, so it's still in its early stages of development and may therefore contain some inaccuracies. In the future, we may consider ways to improve the accuracy of Trends for Websites by allowing owners to contribute additional data from their sites.

16. How do you use Google Analytics data?

Trends for Websites uses Google Analytics data in a manner consistent with our firm commitment to user trust and privacy. Specifically:

Google Analytics doesn't share individual, site-level information with Trends for Websites.

Trends for Websites gathers data from multiple sources. This data is then checked against anonymous, aggregate, industry benchmarking data within Google Analytics.

Trends for Websites only uses anonymous Google Analytics data to calibrate category data and correct for under-reporting or over-reporting in certain industries.

Google Analytics benchmarking data only comes from Google Analytics customers who've proactively chosen to share their data in an anonymous and aggregate form.

17. I opted out of Google Analytics. Why does my site still appear in Trends for Websites?

Removing Google Analytics from your site or opting out of Google Analytics data sharing won't remove your site from Trends for Websites or change the data shown for your site.

Rest assured, however, that we've taken specific measures to ensure the strict confidentiality of your Google Analytics data. As a result, you can still choose to benefit from Google Analytics without worrying about data privacy.

18. Can I remove my site from Trends for Websites?

Not at this time. In the future, we may consider ways to improve the accuracy of Trends for Websites by enabling owners to contribute additional data from their sites. In the meantime, please note that your content won't appear on Trends for Websites if - by using methods such as the Robots Exclusion Protocol - you've already prevented your content from appearing in Google's search results.

(Note: Removing Google Analytics from your site or opting out of Google Analytics data sharing options won't remove your site from Trends for Websites or change the data shown for your site. Rest assured, however, that we've taken measures to ensure the strict confidentiality of your Google Analytics data.)

Show of Shoemoney

At the Revenue Bootcamp conference on Friday our panel was asked how we would monetize Twitter. I took the lead on this one and talked about how I was already monetizing Twitter… but just for my own benefit.

I also went on and talked about how there is a HUGE market imbalance going on right now with Twitter traffic.

I started doing sponsored tweets about a year ago when I was offered $50 a tweet and recently as much as $400 a tweet.

But the opportunity really lies in arbitraging Twitter traffic. There are about a dozen Twitter advertising networks out there. Traffic can be purchased anywhere from .5 cents to .15 per tweet.

I will show you my first examples playing around with arbitraging Twitter traffic.

A couple months ago while browsing the Social Spark opportunities I noticed they had added CPC deals. This means you get paid per click that you send to them. They also have a special link you can use for social network traffic like Twitter and Facebook.

Ebooks take the New Way

by Judy Cullins
Did you know that you already have an eBook inside you? And, like your coach, you can earn thousands of dollars each month?
Even if you are a non-techie like me, you can write your ebook at the same time you write your print book. Or, solve your readers' problems using other articles and reports already in your files. Expand a two-page article with a story or add other how-to's.
If you want to double and triple your present book income, check out these mistakes and correct them now.
Mistake 1. You don't write a short e-Book first to test the waters.
Short is in the eyes of the beholder, but let's say from 15-90 pages. Your future customers will be glad to download these pages and print only the ones they need to.
Your e-Book needs to be more concise, easy-to-read, and compelling than your print book. That means you can shorten your analogies and stories. You can use a "success format" that poses a question (a heading) your reader wants answered, then answer it. This formula gets to the point quickly, and always remember, your Online audience is busy and doesn't want a wordy style.
Mistake 2. You don't check in with a professional editor or book coach before you sell your e-Book.
Yes, it's good to get feedback from peers, but you need to get a professional look at the final edition -someone who can set you straight about words and grammar that makes your writing vital and original. For instance, you need to drop your passive constructions such as "there is" or any form of "is, has, begin or start". Limit the -ly adverbs that merely tell rather than show. Your readers want a picture and want to respond with their emotions. Limit your -ing forms of the verbs. Keep your copy in present or past tense.
Mistake 3. You don't know your audience before you write your e-Book.
Emerging authors make this biggest mistake. They have information, so why not write an e-Book? Instead think about the audience you will serve. More targeted works well. People who want something quick and easy that will save them time and money - another audience. The best one so far in the untapped Internet or Online audience. Mostly small business people, they are eager to buy what they need to make their life or business more enjoyable, profitable, and easy.
Right now, think of your one or two preferred audiences, and keep their profile of their needs, complaints, or problems as well as their picture by your workstation. Then you will write the book your pre-sold audience already wants!
Mistake 4. You don't automate your business.
As a newbie or non-techie, at first you may resist learning how to do this. Three years ago I knew nothing about the net, and today I've published five e-Books on Internet marketing and e-Book writing and publishing. You can too, little by little.
Since each book will not bring you landslides of profit, think about limiting your small priced books. Or, bundle them so that each sale is around $20 and up.
Offer your e-Book for sale through an 800 number. One with excellent service is MRC business Support at 800-366-5596. Set up a link for people to download your book. Two companies to investigate are Clickbank.com and Paypal.com.
Delegate some of this work to your computer assistant. Contact your local high schools and technical schools where Online geniuses live. And, the cost is nominal in comparison to the results.
Mistake 5. You don't have a title that sells well.
A good title is short, clear, and clever. The best title includes your book's number one benefit. Use words your audience can relate to. Even cliches are OK for book titles. Instead of "How to Market Online," offer a title like a Web site headline: "Quadruple your Monthly Book Income - Market Online."
Brainstorm a list of your possible titles with associates through a small marketing survey. Ask them to vote from 1-10 and offer their own title ideas that would make them reach into their wallets and pay $15-20 or more.
Mistake 6. You don't leverage your e-Book for higher price sales.
When you look at the valuable information inside your e-Book and you realize you only make $20 a sale, you may want to investigate putting it into an e-Course. These courses sell for $79 and up. With just a little revising and tweaking, you can set your book up to be a hands-on how to course.
You can bundle several lower cost e-Books and list their singular prices. Then offer a fabulous discount to buy all three or four.
Mistake 7. You don't add bonus value to your e-Book.
Whenever you put 2-4 bonus special reports at the end of your e-Book document in Portable Document Format, you make your offer so appealing, that many will buy for the bonuses alone. For an e-Book on How to Write your E-Book or Other Book - Fast! an e-Book that sells for $24.95, the author offered these three valuable bonuses as an incentive to buy. "Titles Sell Books" - value $4.95, 2. "Write Like a Pro Checklist." - value $3.95, and 3. "How to Get Testimonials from the Rich and Famous" - value $5.95. That's $15 of valuable reports added to $24.95--Total value: $40.00 value for only $24.95.
She put a new link on her Web site "Discounts of the Month." With a limited time offer, from her e-Promotion bi-monthly offers, she got many new buyers. Everyone wants useful, original information. Everyone also wants a bargain.
Mistake 8. You put too many topics in your book.
Remember, best sellers focus on one main topic. Each chapter must support that subject. When you try to give too much, your information isn't organized, short, and compelling. Instead of the end all, be all book, concentrate on one "how-to" and give plenty of details to make it useful to your reader.
Mistake 9. You don't market while you write.
Most writers wish someone else would do it for them. Not in this lifetime! It's so much easier to put marketing into each chapter title, each chapter's questions you will answer, rough draft of your e-Book's back cover (sales letter), the One-Minute "Tell and Sell," and knowing your targeted audience, thesis and table of contents before you write a single chapter. Knowing these essential "Seven Hot-Selling Points" before you finish your e-Book will have you ready to promote the second you write your last word.
Mistake10. You don't brand yourself, your business, and your book.
Some people join an affiliate program or set up an affiliate program for others to sell their products and sell many products. As a marketing coach, what I want for you is to think of the overview "umbrella" you can house your products under. Think about your biggest benefit you offer through your service. Think about your book title. Can you put a key word from it into each chapter title? For the book, "Passion at Any Age," the author put the word passion in each chapter title such as "Passionate Self-Care". In one client's book, "Watch Out! Your Relationships Can Be Hazardous To Your Health." the author included the key words "watch out!" in each chapter title.
The e-Book earning curve while short is important for all writers to conquer. It's easier when you contact a professional coach or take a teleclass to inform yourself. Stop making e-Book mistakes so you can earn the money you deserve.

President Obama Speech

President Obama's speech today in Cairo met the bar he set for himself. In an address modeled after the Philadelphia speech on race, he forewent soaring oratory in favor of a thoughtful, nuanced and challenging reflection on America's relations with the Muslims around the world (not "the Muslim world", which for some reason became a major issue in American punditry over the last few days). As he frankly recognized, no one speech can overcome the many problems he addressed. But this speech is an essential starting point in a genuine conversation, a respectful dialogue on core issues. After the initial rush of instant commentaries and attempts to inflame controversy pass, it should become the foundation for a serious, ongoing conversation which could, as the President put it, "remake this world."
Before I get into the substance of the speech, a few preliminary notes.
First, Obama made an admirable effort to speak a few words in Arabic, even if he mangled the pronunciations (hajib instead of hijab, al-Azhar). As anyone who has traveled abroad knows, a little effort learning local languages signals respect and goes a long way. He also effectively interspersed quotes from the Quran, without it being too obtrusive -- I would have liked to have seen some bits from the great Islamic philosophers, but oh well.
Second, the rollout of the speech already stands as one of the most successful public diplomacy and strategic communications campaigns I can ever remember -- and hopefully a harbinger of what is to come. This wasn't a one-off Presidential speech. The succession of statements (al-Arabiya interview, Turkish Parliament, message to the Iranians) and the engagement on the Israeli-Palestinian policy front set the stage. Then the White House unleashed the full spectrum of new media engagement for this speech -- SMS and Twitter updates, online video, and online chatroom environment, and more. This will likely be followed up upon to put substance on the notion of this as a "conversation" rather than an "address" -- which along with concrete policy progress will be the key to its long-term impact, if any.
Third, I am going to refrain from commenting on the Arab response for now. That will take a few days, at least, to unfold. The usual suspects will appear on the media, and some will have valuable things to say, but I want to wait to see the talk shows on the major TV stations, op-eds, forums, blogs, and more. A cautionary note, though --- English-language Egyptian blogs are likely to be a particularly poor initial "focus group" for judging the response. But listening to the response and engaging in the debate which emerges will be key, for American officials and for the American public. Because Obama's address sought to reframe the conversation, we won't know whether it succeeds until we see how the subsequent political debate unfolds.
OK, now to the speech itself. This was a challenging, thoughtful speech which will be picked at and discussed for a long time. It wasn't as revolutionary as some might have hoped, but that's not surprising -- the ground is so well-trodden that it would have been astonishing to see something genuinely new. Instead, it struck me as a thoughtful reflection and invitation to conversation, with some important nuance which might easily be missed. It was neither "just like Bush" nor a total departure from past American rhetoric. I will only focus here on some of the most interesting and important aspects from my perspective -- and I have intentionally not read any other commentary or talked to anyone about it, in order to keep my own impressions fresh for now.
Violent Extremism. Obama's lengthy early discussion of violent extremism was politically necessary, if a bit excessive -- the most Bush-like part of the speech in some ways, but not others. He made clear the reality of the threat posed by al-Qaeda and invoked 9/11 to provide context for American efforts in Afghanistan. But crucially, without drawing attention to it, he pointedly did not refer to a "Global War on Terror." He took care, as in his Turkey address, to correctly placed the challenge on the marginal fringe of Islam:
