Change the way you search for results.
Here's something that will make Google search that much more exciting & most of all it's LIVE!!!.
Tested the Google search box with various topics and when Google Search results are shown, alongside the results are also Twitter Results on the topic being searched.
Imagine searching for live results with help from the engagement of our fellow twitters on Google Search.
Here's what need to be done. You need to install Firefox and then install Greasemonkey as an addon.
After that you need to install TwitterLive Updater through the above title link.
Once all that is done, reboot and see the difference as shown on the Google Search result.
It changes the way we look at searches.
All due recognition to author of the above script.
Enjoy.

FireFox Plug-In for Affiliate Marketers
Posted by The Affordable Alternative at the marketplace | 7:07 PM | 0 comments »Here's an important Firefox plug-in that has just been launched as an Add-on.
As most affiliate marketers know, most of our commissions through affiliate links are sometimes being tempered
with and we end up losing a big portion of our hard-earned money.
However, all is not lost, for we have a plug-in from Firefox that not only cloak our affiliate link, the software does not allow the link to be tempered with.
We have tinyurls and now we have a FireFox plugin for ViralURL… it’s called: ViralPlugin and as we all know,
it's free.
All good things do come in small packages.
The plugin makes it super fast and easy to cloak links.
So the 1st step is to install it!
If you don’t use FireFox as yet, now is the time you really should.
It is a lot safer and faster then other browsers and you can get it, here .
Talk real soon.
Happy Blogging.
Twittering your way to success
Posted by The Affordable Alternative at the marketplace | 9:05 PM | 0 comments »Hi friends
I am awe-struck & dumbfounded.
The past 24 hours has been a mindboggling experience. I had no idea that my gmail have been flush with twitter friends and from a low score of 170+ followers to an astounding 1000+ followers.
Is Twitter about numbers. In my opinion, a big aye.
Initially, I would scrutinize each and every twitter whether we are speaking on the same platform or interest.
But with a following, there is always an audience should you wish to share your aspirations; be it on a personal level or through mass communications.
I am now in search of twitter applications that will enable me to automate & communicate at the same time with a framework of guidelines in place.
One such application would be tweetlater.com.
Another application that is of interest is refollow.com.
Refollow helps you discover, manage, and protect your Twitter social circle.
That's their headline.Finally, I am still in a daze because I found out that many has come to visit my blog.
I thank you with utmost sincererity and hope that i will not disappoint my fellow twitters.
Thanks
(In humble adoration)

Can you imagine tapping into the vast majority that has Internet Access and the potential opportunities and possibilities that avails itself. It is simply mind blowing.

My Insight To Online Business
Posted by The Affordable Alternative at the marketplace | 12:24 AM | 0 comments »As of late, I have been blown away by the readily abundance of information available on the net.Whatever information you need is out there.
Sadly, not many will be able to succeed in the online business, this applies especially to the newbies out there. Unless and unless they have the time to digest all the information and make time available to pursue their dream, they are doom to fail. If you have a full time 9-5 career, then I truly feel that you will not be able to make it unless you are truly committed to make it work. Forget about the quick get rich scheme out there. You still need to allocate time in order to succeed.
It is not my intention to belittle you or sway you away from your plans but just an insight on my part. A lot of time is needed to nurture your business.
Notwithstanding, the information that you seek are generously given to you but most importantly, they help you in your work-in progress be become a top class achiever. Recommendations will be made and that is where referral commissions comes in. This is part & parcel. Look at it another way, no advertisements or sponsors, no show.

Atomic Blogging!!!! anyone?
Posted by The Affordable Alternative at the marketplace | 12:48 AM | 0 comments »Atomic Blogging? Notice this on my Rss feed on Google Reader. Decide to have a look at it. As I review their sales pitch and the person who sells it, it is difficult not to admire these guys who make money online. Most of the marketers that advertises on the net are very young and enterprising. Their internet knowledge is aboveboard and everyone of them has a secret to reveal. I would term this as an experience through trial and error. They market these secrets and enrich themselves in the process. Most of them started blogging as a past-time and realise that there is money to be made. I would say that the majority of these young "infopreneurs" start earning big-time after 3 years. Of course, this is only my perception and I may be off target. Blogging as a hobby is rewarding, it is a form of expresssion of oneself and fulfills our desire to express and monetise as well. What a way to let off steam and earn at the same time.
Now, back to the subject matter.

Marketing your products via email
Posted by The Affordable Alternative at the marketplace | 11:12 PM | 0 comments »It is a daunting task trying to feel your way into the maze of information available on the net. Most of the time, we are being sidetracked because of the availability of new tools and new applications that are being marketed to make our journey into the world of internet business much easier and less time consuming.
I came across this while browsing through. Now this is what I call distraction. This software not only allows you to relax and enjoy your cuppa while the robot will help you to generate articles into your blog. The tedious task of having to plonk your way through the keyboard will be a thing of the past. Posting quality content into your blog each and every day will be a breeze. Installation takes only 3 minutes. However, this software only applies to wordpress blogs by way of plugin. Check it out and appraise it. You may find it at
automaticblog.net
Now that I have subscribe to 7StepsMoney.com
and link it to my blog, I found out about Google Adsense. Google indeed has a win-win situation on their hands.For a novice like me, following the instructions given, I open an account with google adsense.
Voila! My blog began a transformation into a money making blog. Amazing!!! It's like a toddler learning how to walk step by step and discovering new innovative ideas. Of course, I will have to learn to read up on Google adsense over the weekend. I will keep you updated. Till Then.
Affiliate Marketing
Posted by The Affordable Alternative at the marketplace | 12:10 AM | 0 comments »Just when all was smooth sailing, the financial market went into a tailspin and the tremor felt by ordinary folks like you and I. You see, I am in a dealer representative in the stock market and if most of you who are in the market know, we are struggling to make a living over the past couple of months. As most of us are in the industry for a decade or more, shifting out or boldly moving out of the comfort zone are a crisis in itself. It is difficult to adjust to the new environment. It's a paradigm shift that is worrisome as it is burdensome. There are many questions that arises as to whether we will be able to compete with the younger breed who are so tech-savvy. In comparison, we are dinosaurs living at the edge of time.
However, as the old saying goes," If the going gets tough , the old gets going". Did I just say the old gets going, Ah ha! Gotcha.
Anyway, this is what I have decide to do, to venture into the world of internet marketing.
Having absolutely no knowledge as to how to gain access into the world of internet marketing and worried about being scammed along the way, it took quite awhile before making a decision to subscribe to 7steps moneymaking.com. For the first time, paid Rm88.00 by maybank2u to GDR services just to obtain sufficient information as to the know how to operate in this platform. This is the link (my first hoplink) into the world of internet marketing .
It is indeed an eye-opening for me and money well spent. You see, I believe the net is the forefront into B2B dealings. I know that many hours will be spent trying to understand the intricacies of the net but it will be worthwhile.
Wish me good luck on this endeavor.
