1. Clean/organize your computer for productivity
Start off with your desktop. If you've got desktop icons with images that don't display or you've got stuff on there that you don't even recognize, your desktop could use some work. Delete unused icons to clear the space. If you need to add the icons in the future, it's not a problem. Also, usually if the icon image doesn't show up, the problem may have been deleted and the icon references something that doesn't exist.
If you have programs that are similar in function or work together, it's a good idea to create a folder and place them inside of the folder on the desktop. It conserves desktop space and looks a whole lot better. One folder looks a lot better than 10 icons on a desktop.
2. Scan for viruses
People who write viruses don't want you to have an enjoyable computing experience. Many times while we're sitting at a computer being bored, they are possibly writing the code for the next big virus. During our boring times, we can scan our computers in an effort to be proactive and make sure we are up to date.
3. Scan for spyware
Second only to virus scanning in my list of important to-do items is spyware scanning. If you're ok with giving away all of your information, that's fine with me, but I'd rather not give mine away. Having spyware on your computer is the equivalent of having an ID theft criminal standing up next to you when you enter your pin at the ATM. You could be giving away your information unknowingly.
4. Defragment your hard drive
While you're in the mood for making your machine run more smoothly, go ahead and defragment the hard drive. This will essentially arrange your files to make them more accessible.
5. Play a game and release some stress
This list wouldn't be complete without a fun item to close it out. If you want to have some fun in a boring time at a computer, just go to Yahoo! games, MSN games, or www.addictinggames.com. There's plenty to keep you entertained.

Internet Marketing: How Difficult Is It? by Scott Lindsay
Internet marketing is little different from any other form of marketing.
How do you react to that statement?
If you think it means you can apply the exact same marketing principles you would for a brick and mortar store you will likely miss the success that may be possible.
If you think it means you can apply similar philosophies in a new environment then you have succeeded in understanding the statement.
Common Parallels
In many brick and mortar stores you will find business owners who have a desire to build their business by developing a mailing list. These lists are derived from individuals who have expressed an interest in the product or service the business provides.
In online business you will find site owners seeking to gain email addresses from prospects and customers for the purpose of sending highly specific information on products or services provided.
In a brick and mortar store you may find business owners developing a newsletter than could benefit existing customers.
In an online store ezines or online articles are made available for existing and potential customers.
In a brick and mortar store you will find a business that relies on press releases to share growth and good news about the business.
In online stores you will also find the press release to be a friend to positive business growth.
Drawing Conclusions
An online business takes some of the same principles that can make a brick and mortar store successful and discovers how to apply them in cyberspace. Internet marketing draws from the same well as conventional marketing it simply applies the concept differently.
One of the bonuses for online business is email distribution is much less expensive than traditional print and postage costs while the turnaround time for impressions is much shorter. The delivery can be nearly instantaneous in many cases and the distribution of pre-produced welcome messages can be automated through autoresponders.
In many ways an online store can be a cost effective addition to a traditional brick and mortar store. The costs in adding an online presence is minimal in comparison to what it takes to get a standard business off the ground. Many businesses report the longer they are in business the more they rely on online sales.
Some former brick and mortar only stores now report that their online business is producing more than 75% of their annual profit.
If you already understand the basic concepts of marketing it may not be a difficult stretch to take than knowledge and learn how to make those concepts work online. Ultimately your overall business may get a shot in the arm in the process.

Promote your internet business with blog
There were various method sorts to promote your internet
business, there were those who spent money and there is
one that is free.
The aim especially is bring in traffic that continually
in your internet business.
Because of the internet business without "traffic" will not
produce the sale.
Blog was one of the strategy promoted your internet
business, either products or the services.
Tips short made blog was :
1. For the contents blog in accordance with your internet
business.
2. For the contents blog that just like "The key words".
3. For Back Link to promote your blog ranking in search
engine.
http://webconfs.com/backlink-builder.php
Tips short made the Back Link be:
For Back Link with website that was the same his business kind or with website that offered the product or your internet service of business accessories.
Don't made link with all the kinds website.
Because especially search engine GOOGLE was not interested with link that was made for.
Renovation Blog
In fact this blog had been launched since last May 4. But it was still chaotic with the form, no posting at all. In spite of that Mr. Heru "Our Guru" still could create "a comment".
I was reminded with Semy the friend from the email. He said "Who is your teacher in Internet Marketing, studying in a focus manner to available materials!" Avoid to hit here and there, he added. So as your studied the Internet Marketing was not directed. I agreed with his opinion.
Because of that I tried focus to learn from David Odang's ebook www. bisnisinternetonline.com/?id=jmonang. From here I received the simple idea. It's a must to have a website for my internet cafe immediately. The domain name www.triplegnet.com was now available in my pocket.
I remained to create a web-design, definitely with ask for please to a professional one, and the right person is my sister Jeannie Francisca.
Now I was not pompous previously, after the web ready what should I do?
1. Promotion barter with several companies that also had website.
2. Give the promotion free to those were interested.
3. Promoted ebook or others.
Automatically I have built affiliate in "My Internet Cafe Zoo".
Be finished??? No...... Not yet.
I was still having a dream to "GO INTERNATIONAL" like "Our Guru in Medan GIS" Mr. Heru and Billie "A creative and clever friend". This blog will increase and sharpen my capacity to aim my goal to be "THE INTERNET MARKETER SOLUTION".
I'm not alone, I have "BUDDY" Tjin An, Joshua, Heru, Jeannie, Billie and others GIS friends.
By that, I can ask what I don't know to my technicians or administrator.
My motto is " No problems cannot be solved".
Please comments from GIS friends, my technicians, my operators and administrator in the Triple G Internet Cafe and who are you.......
