Web site alone is not enough!

7月

Everybody wants new business. To get new businesses for your business, you need to make sure people know about your business. So, you build the web site to attract people. But you soon find that you have attracted very few people to your web site.

So, now you are thinking of Search Engine Optimization or even pay per click advertisement.

First of all, you are not attracting people to your web site because your web site is

(1) Static / Not Changing
(2) No important information (Usually too much)
(3) Not providing any benefit to visitors
(4) not being promoted
(5) Boring

You need to make changes. We recommend

(1) Adding blog to your site
(2) Connecting your site to Social Networking Sites
(3) Simplify your web site by eliminating some of the information.

People do not spend a lot of time reading the contents of your web site. If you need to learn more about this approach to your web site, please contact me.

PS: Congratulations to Ai Miyazato for her first LPGA tour victory. Japan must be going nuts over this.

Fisher Plaza Update

7月

20日

Fisher Plaza East is still 100% powered by generators. This is an update for restoration to city power to Fisher Plaza.

The goal to restore city power is still planned as end of August. Though
this one is a temporary solution, the gears to put central risers
(technical, mechanical, and lights & power) back to city power will be
here soon. The earliest time for power restoration will be next weekend.
Therefore, this means that those three risers could be back on city
power by August 3rd.

The north and south risers running on the basement generators will be
restored after that. The gear for those are still scheduled to be sent
out this Friday, the 24th. Any required process will take place once
those arrive.

Those are the words from Fisher Plaza. I took this picture on the day the power went out.

I finally upgraded my computer's memory to 4GB. As far as I know, this is the maximum amount of memory I can have on my iMac.

Things run much much better with memory. I really do recommend you to have as much RAM as possible. If you buy memory from PSPINC, we will install it for you at no additional charge.

I was a guest at the PC Club of Ashiya, Japan other day. I appeared on the large screen explaining how Skype works to many people attended the meeting on that day.

Until I received this picture, I did not not know I was on the big screen.

Aperture 2 for Macintosh

I installed Aperture 2 to manage 45,000 digital photos I have in my computer. I took all night to import and create an thumbnails all images, but once it is done, it is very fast and reliable.

If you have a lot of images, this is a very good $100 investment.
