Turning Plastic Into Oil? Genius!

Hello Readers,

Something amazing has been discovered that you need to see and spread the word to everyone you know! The CEO of a Japanese company called Blest had gotten tired of seeing inefficient ways of disposing of plastic waste in his country. Japan has big population problems and, in turn, waste has been a growing problem for a number of years. In order to solve this problem he uncovered a brilliant idea that would revolutionize the world!

As you may know, plastic is made largely out of oil and do you know how much plastic waste is currently destroying the earth? Hmmm only around many millions of tones of it, including a giant island of it sitting in the North Pacific Ocean estimated to be larger than the state of Texas called the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. This may start to give you a clue that it may be time to start doing something about it.

And why not? Akinori Ito of the Blest Company’s idea would provide enough incentive to do something about it. The idea is that since plastic was initially made out of oil, there's no reason it couldn't be turned back into its original state! Akinori's machine does just that! Watch the video below to see him change plastic into oil in a matter of minutes simply out of plastic garbage!

What do you guys think of this? Is this the answer to deal with our major waste problems?


Cheers,

Bruce Willis Unveils The Brand New Cologne: SMELL HARD!

As a man, you have always wondered what it would be like to smell like Chuck Norris. Since that feat is not only absurd but also impossible we have now uncovered the next best thing! Now, through a sophisticated, pain stackingly strenuous process of swabbing Bruce Willis's armpits with Q-Tips they have now come out with the manliest scent possible!

It has been released recently that the name of the Cologne will be "Bruce Willis". This is clearly far from original and quite boring so in my opposition to this ridiculous naming of a cologne with so much potential I have developed the name, packaging, slogan and everything else so they can simply change their entire marketing plan to accommodate my indifference :).

Cheers and your welcome Bruce Willis,




Ryan

How To Promote A Facebook Fan Page!

Hey guys,

So a lot of business owners these days have decided to start Facebook groups for their company. Here are a few tips on how to promote your group or fan page so that you have a few more fans!

Facebook Ads

If you hope to send your Facebook fans to your website and convert them to customers, whether through an ecommerce purchase, clicking on an AdSense ad/Affiliate link/advertising banner, or getting them to sign up for your newsletter/email list/etc, spending a few dollars each month to get highly targeted customers is worth it.

Facebook Photo Tagging

Want to reach friends of your current fans? Ask your fans to:
• Take a picture with you/your business/product/something related
• Upload the picture to your Facebook page
• Tag themselves in the picture they just uploaded
Just as an example, I could have people upload pictures of cocktails to my page then tag themselves. Those photos would then appear on my Facebook fan page in a "Fan Photos" folder, but more importantly, those photos will appear in the fan's profile stream and their friends -- who may not yet be fans of your page -- will see those photos and that someone/your page is tagged.

"Follow Me" on Facebook

This one is simple: at the end of your blog posts, add a clickable link (whether through straight html or one of the social bookmarking plugins) that suggests that if the reader liked the content, they become a fan of yours on Facebook.

Encourage Comments

Post questions and polls and post timely information to encourage current fans to comment, share, and "like" your posts. Every time a fan comments or likes a post, your post will show up in their friends' Facebook stream, making your page visible to an untapped group of potential fans.

Ask Your Friends

If you're just starting out with a Facebook Page and have zero followers, asking your friends for a mercy "Like" might be a good starting point. All of your other marketing efforts will be in vain if a potential fan sees that no one else likes your page.

To ask your friends to "Like" your Facebook page, visit your page and click on the "Suggest to friends" link under the profile picture on your page. A pop up box will then appear that asks you to select which friends should get your invitation, and you'll also have an opportunity to write a message.

Use Keywords

Facebook and Google announced that they would be indexing Facebook posts as long as those posts and pages weren't private, so ensure that your posts, page, and URL is optimized for popular keywords.
A popular keyword for a URL (such as facebook.com/twitter) means that with enough links, your Facebook page could appear in search engines when someone searches for Twitter. Similarly, your Facebook page could appear in search engines for your name, company name, or one of your products or services.

Linkbuilding

The more high quality links there are to a site, the more likely that site is to appear within the search engines. This is a very complicated process that we have looked into for years.

Post Regularly

Last but not least, you have to maintain your Facebook Page so that you don't lose your current fans, but also so that potential fans have incentive to join (to get up to date information) and to encourage current fans to help promote your page. If you're only checking in on your page once a month and posting irregularly, you're likely to lose fans -- especially if they joined then forgot about you and all of a sudden see your post in their stream. If you keep your fans up to date and post regularly, they'll become familiar with seeing your page in their stream and are less likely to click "unlike." Just make sure to continue posting relative, timely, and informative content.

Cheers and good luck,

Ryan

The Ultimate Flash Websites of 2010

Hello Reader,

Even though Steve Jobs seems to be on a mission lately to take Flash of the Internet, it can still be used to make phenomenal websites. Even with their major drawbacks in things such as Search Engine Optimization and load times, they can add an element of user interaction with a website that static websites just can't allow for. To properly exemplify my point, I have scoured the Internet to bring you some of the best designed Flash website on the Internet today.

1. Labuat - One of the most amazing user integration designs I have experienced, you'll love it! - click here to check it out














2. Monoface - A hilarious way to pass the time and a brilliantly creative website for the advertising firm Monoface - click here to check it out














3. Toyota Prius - A very cool and unique layout with innovative character development - click here to check it out














4. AgencyNet - A strange but innovative site. It's loading menu's are just as cool as the site itself - click here to check it out













5. Jim Carrey's Website - A website as weird, creative and funny as the man himself - click here to check it out














6. Getty Images, Moodstream - A strange website that allows the user to manipulate nearly every part of the photo experience - click here to check it out














7. Don't Click It - A flash site designed in such a way that you don't need to click - click here to check it out













8. Coke's Happiness Factory - Great loading menu's, character design and games ... and we would expect nothing less from Coke - click here to check it out













These are extremely innovative websites that took a lot of time and money to create but as you can see, they are completely worth it. If done right, flash websites can create an experience for your target market that can't be duplicated by any other medium. Stay away Steve Jobs!

Cheers,



Ryan
