The man who does things makes many mistakes,
but he never makes the biggest mistake of all - "doing nothing."

I’ve been fortunate to enjoy considerable success online.
 
The key method I used to get profitable was keeping costs down,
especially advertising costs. I didn’t understand how to do this
 until I read Shawn Casey’s book, Mining Gold On the Internet.
 
Last week I made $1,394 due to what I learned from Shawn.
 
I highly recommend Mining Gold On the Internet. Click here to get your f*r*e*e info.

They Don't Get It
by John Colanzi

«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»
I guess it was getting too good to last forever. Email
has become such a powerful marketing tool, the sp^m masters
and the anti-sp^m fanatics had to find a way to gum up the
works.
 
I've seen it happen over and over. It happened with the
newsgroups and the free classified sites, why not email?
 
It seems some of our fellow marketers can't enjoy a good
thing, they have to find a way to destroy.
 
I don't know why I expected email to be any different, but
low and behold, they've found a way to tarnish internet
marketing again.
 
I may be wrong, but I really don't think many of the
crazies that are abusing email are even making a good
living doing it.
 
I don't know about you, but I spend half my day using
the block sender option on my email. How can they make
money when nobody wants to be bothered?
 
I don't think they get it. They're willing to take
everyone down with their fool hardiness.
 
The saddest part is they're affecting all marketers'
businesses, but the ones they hurt the worst are the new
start ups.
 
Marketers that have been online for any length of time
are being affected, but they know enough to make
adjustments.
 
The newbies may not have the experience or the following
to weather the storm and make the necessary changes in
their game plan.
 
I wonder if the sp^m masters realize how many fellow
marketers they've betrayed for a few pieces of silver?

"Dad, gimme a dollar" said little Jimmy.
 
"Not today, sonny, not today."
 
"Dad, if you give me a dollar, I'll tell you
what the ice cream man said to mama this
morning."
 
"Here son," he said passing him a buck,
"now quick..... what did he say?"
 
"He said, 'Lady, what kind of ice cream
would you like today?"

6.) HOT BIZTIP
__________________________________

"Bytes, Megabytes, and Dog Bites"
 
How's your math?
 
8 bits make one byte. And a million bytes make... a
megabyte! So, when you check your computer for memory, and
you see you have 64 MB of RAM, you know you have 64 million
bytes of memory space. Or that your hard drive, which is
described in Gigabytes, has TONS of room on it.
 
Unless, of course, you have an older computer with a small
hard drive. Standard sizes today are from 8 gigabytes to
80 gigabytes. There are smaller and larger drives as well.
 
One gigabyte holds a thousand megabytes. And one megabyte
holds a million bytes. Once you know the prefixes, the
rest is easy. Here's a prefix list for you:
 
Kilo=one thousand of anything
Mega=one million of anything
Giga=one billion of anything
 
Those are the 'big three' in the personal computing arena.
When you see that a download is "3 megabytes" in size, you
know it's just a BB in a box car. The box car is your hard
drive, and that 3 megabyte file is the bb. Or ball bearing.
 
Do you have your bearings now? I think I'm getting punch
drunk!
 
Computers started out very, very small. Early Tandy 1000SX's
had NO hard drive. It had 384 K of RAM. If you doubled that
to 640K or RAM it was maxed out. It also had two big floppy
disk drives.
 
Then along came consumer affordable hard drives. 20
megabytes! That was a monster. (There was no Windows at this
time.)
 
Sizes kept going up and up and up... and prices kept going
down. That was cool. Imagine what it was like to move from
a basic DOS system like the Tandy to a wonderful picture
window system like, well, Windows. It was like going from a
horse and buggy to a horseless carriage.
 
Yea, it was great.
 
So, we're looking at sizes... and know that most things are
measured in megabytes and gigabytes. The common thing is the
byte. Let's ramble just a tad more...
 
Computers work with electricity, right? And they store stuff
in memory and on your hard drive. If it's in memory (RAM)
then the storage is actually an electrical current being ON
or OFF.
 
If it's ON, it's given the number '1'. If it's OFF, it's
given the number '0'. This is also called the binary number
system. Ones and zeros. That's all you get. You have to be
able to count to any number using only ones and zeros.
 
Computers can only use ones and zeros. They have to do
everything that way, and the electrical currents are either
on or off. Without going into the mysteries of electrical
engineering, (hey, this is supposed to be Newbie-Speak, not
Geek-Speak!) let's leave it at that.
 
The point: binary digits is what we're speaking about.
Binary... Digits... shorten that to... Bit. See the
relationship? A 'bit' is a Binary Digit. Take the 'B' from
Binary and the 'it' from Digit and make a new word.
 
So, now you know. One bit is a zero or a one. It takes 8 of
those zeros and ones to make a byte. Here's a byte:
 
01101001
 
And one byte equals one character you type on your keyboard.
This newsletter has LOTS of characters. Let's say it has
a thousand characters just for fun. That's 1,000 bytes worth
of characters.
 
Okay, sizes are interesting. And since you're faced with
making decisions about your own computer every day, and how
much stuff to store on the machine is one of those
decisions, I hope this tutorial has given you a little
insight. And that it was actually UNDERSTANDABLE.
 
Hmmmm ...
 
Dog bites. If you paid attention to the title of this
tutorial, you know that the last two words are 'Dog Bites'.
What's a dog's teeth have to do with any of this?
 
Absolutely nothing.
 

====================
Those techies sure are clever. Of course they don't always
make it clear how you use all their techie stuff. Which is just
as well, or The Newbie Club wouldn't exist:-)
