Unique Visitors - Guerilla Internet Marketing 101 - Lesson 1

Posted in Blog, Business, Cool, Educational, Web, Wordpress by max on the January 26th, 2007 at 1:33 am

“UNIQUE VISITORS” is the difference of “HITS” from 10 years ago to now.  Everyone with a website knows what a “unique visitor” is.  If you asked someone 10 years ago, they wouldn’t know it or probably rather pick their nose.

Well, I am not an expert in the blogging subject, but I think I have more enough know-how than your regular joe.
The market that is not being tapped in the Internet marketing world are the blog ads that are out there. You can grab some really low CPM ads over Google AdSense.
The best thing about these blog ads is that you only pay once and you don’t have to pay for all the clicks and impressions. Based on past history of the blog, you are free to post some advertisements. Blogs seems to be very stable. You can check out some traffic of any website on alexa.com. There are some other ones out there but I feel that Alexa.com does a good job.  Make sure to check on your stocks and check out some of the latest emerging blogs… you will see that your stocks really suck yet blogs are really starting to rocket…
Here’s two of my favorite blog ads:

Blogads.com - Great CPM but their website seems to be down sometimes, well the ads keep going but…
Performancing.com - A lot of blogs including this one but their website seems to have some quirks to fix since they’ve been recently acquired by someone else.

Even though these are not greatest ads, it could be your path to guerilla internet marketing… well again, I am not an expert, but just an honest opinion from a techy blogger…

The cool thing is that some of these “blog ads” can cost you almost $10 Gs for some celebrity blog! BUT, do check out the advertisers on those sites. They are all big companies like Helios, Sony, etc…etc…

I suggested this to my boss and he figured it was a good idea to try and see what happens, so we will update you on the results of our Guerilla Internet Market over the next couple weeks… In the meanwhile, try to promote our website by coming BACK! Thanks to everyone who watch us and Cheers!

I’ve tried Google adsense and it does work but the cost per impression and cost per click is way too high and sometimes you get some of these bogus clicks!
So today’s lesson from Zedomax is to get some Blog ads!  Our ad on performancing is 11 cents, so go get it and help us keep maintain the site and get some easy traffic to your site!

Blog ads works!  (I think….we will update you with results soon…)

Okay, enough of this for tonight and we will get back to hacking, DIYs, and more gadgets… :p

Touchscreen iPhone like LG Prada brings competition

Posted in Audio, Consumer, Cool, Entertainment, Gadgets, cell phones, mp3 by max on the January 25th, 2007 at 6:56 pm

http://zedomax.com/image/200701/prada-phone.jpg

Here’s the cool LG Prada phone that’s making consumers wonder whether to get this or
the iPhone. We will have to get some videos on direct performance between these
two when they are available. Touch screen interfaces are really becoming da bomb
these days… I My personal suggestion is to get one iPhone and one Prada and share it among
your loved ones swapping it with a SIM card… (Will both support SIM cards? That’s the
big question)

The first completely touch screen Prada phone by LG (KE850) is a real breakthrough in the industry, as it is a unique, sophisticated and elegant mobile phone with its first complete advanced touch interface. The entire LG KE850 Prada phone resembles the Apple iPhone announced by the US Company earlier this year.

DIY HACK - Build a Six-Axis 3D Controller (3D mouse)

Posted in Circuits, Consumer, Cool, DoItYourself!, Educational, Entertainment, Gadgets, Hack, Microcontroller, Motor, Projects, Wireless by max on the January 25th, 2007 at 4:48 am

http://zedomax.com/image/200701/3d-mouse.jpg

Check out this awesome 3D mouse you can build using some creative hacks!

I’ve been exploring 3D graphics using VVVV. One of the things you quickly learn when working in 3D is that doing anything with a 2D mouse is a pain. Particularly I found I was spending a lot of time shuffling the camera position which involves a tricky combination of keystrokes and mouse movements. I wanted to get a camera control that would allow me to fly the camera smoothly in 3D space.

Looking for “3D Mice” in Google found a variety of more-or-less ugly and expensive commercial options, but also this project linked off Slashdot. Humm I thought, how hard could that be to copy.

The basic principle of Three Blind Mice is to run three threads round three rollers from old mechanical mice. By using the mouse reports to calculate the length of the extended thread this allows the position where all the threads join to be calculated. First job was to interface the mice to a PC. I am using old Microsoft Itellimice. The “z” axis on these mice which measures the position of the wheel is very low resolution and not suitable for this application. So, you need two mice to get the three axis of measurement required.
