e_Marketing Blog Free PR10 Backlink - Get Yours We do links at Linknet, so we're always on the lookout for ways to get quality backlinks. Here is a report by Angela Edwards detailing exactly how you can get a backlink on a PR10 site. This is not BS. It's free, so definitely worth the little bit of effort. Angela will send you other sources of high PR links too. Go to FREE PR10 LINK New AV Electronics Blog We just created a new blog called Audio Video Electronics featuring videos and articles about audio video equipment. Google Docs Could Be Useful We do a lot of collaborative writing and publishing at Linknet - where two or three people get in on writing articles and posts, creating videos, etc., and the people involved are often not on the same internal network. So managing the writing, editing, publishing, reporting and archiving can be a challenge. A shared online repository for content seems like the answer, so over the last few days I've been looking at Google Docs to see if it fits the bill. So far so good. One person creates a document and then shares it with others. The originator of the doc can work on it and then have a collaborator make additional edits to exactly the same document. Take a video script for example. The script writer can write a script and store it in a Google Docs folder. Then give access to that script to the person doing the voice track and the other person doing the actual video production. If changes are made further up the production chain - say by the voice track person - these changes can be made right to the master version stored in Google Docs. So everybody is working from the same script. One potential problem I've seen so far is that you cannot share folders - only individual docs. That means Person A may want to organize the same files in completely different folders from Person B. That sounds like it could be a good thing in some cases, but in others not so good. I can also see this system being good for client communication and reporting. You create a report, say by using the online Spreadsheet utility, then share it with the client so he/she can see what is going on. Other users could even make notations and add stuff like you can with a wiki. I must admit though, that I haven't quite figured out the Google "account" thing yet. If you've got accounts for adwords, adsense, docs, video, analytics, etc. and you signed up for them at different times, there's no telling whether or not they are synchronized. I'm sure there's a way, but I haven't figured it out yet. |

Spring Cleaning is Always in SeasonMar 22, 2006 - Linknet Product News Spring Cleaning is Always in Season Mar 22, 2006 - Linknet House and Home - By Vincent Platania Fuller Brush ProductsLemon scents wafting through the halls, dust bunnies banished, crisp, clean curtains waving in the wind. Ahhh, spring cleaning. == Carpet Cleaning Dallas Texas == Did the season pass you by? Never fear. It doesn’t have to be spring for homeowners to get the itch to clean house. No matter what season it is, homeowners can enjoy that same feeling by shaking the dirt down from the ceiling and sweeping it out the door. Clean scents, polished floors, spotless window glass, and scrubbed decks - here we come. Plan Ahead Before jumping in gather tools, cleaning supplies, buckets, trash bags, boxes, and a few friends to help out. Wear something old so good clothes won’t get stained, or bleached. Decide how much time it will take to clean based on the size of your home and how many family members will pitch in. Tool Time A week before you plan to start your spring cleaning marathon, review what supplies you have on hand. Do you have: - Ammonia for wiping away grease - Foaming cleaners for bathtubs - Squeegees to make quick work of window washing - Buckets for mixing concentrated cleaners - Cleaners made for washing cars and trucks - Oven cleaner - Floor cleaners for wood and linoleum - Stiff-bristled large brooms to sweep away winter dirt - Angled soft-bristle brooms for indoor use - Sponges and scrubbing brushes for general use - Lambswool and ostrich feather dusters to clean in hard-to-reach places - Laundry detergent booster - Static free cleaner for electronics - Oil soaps for wood cabinets - Cleaners formulated for artificial plants - Oxygenizing cleaner to remove spots and stains without bleaching fabrics, upholstery or carpets - Other brushes for specific uses: toilet bowl brush, refrigerator coil brush - Ladder for reading ceiling fans, tall bookcases and to wash windows Purchase versatile concentrated cleaners when possible. Benefits include being able to dilute cleaner to different strengths depending on the cleaning job involved. They also cost less per use and require less packing making them environmentally-friendly. Brushes and brooms that are made for a specific purpose make the job easier. Toilet bowl brushes scrub under the rim with less effort. Cleaning refrigerator coils is as easy as an afterthought when you use a soft brush made for just that job. A lamb’s wool duster with extended pole makes it easy to sweep walls and ceilings for cobwebs and dust. The static in the wool works like a magnet to attract dust with little effort on your part. Rags, sponges, gloves that protect your hands from the effects of cleaners, mops, and brooms can be stored in one place until you need them. A small laundry basket or extra bucket can be used to carry supplies from room to room. Create one bucket of supplies for bedrooms, living rooms, dining areas, and one bucket of supplies for bathrooms and the kitchen. Don’t forget cleaning supplies for outdoor decks, window washing and the car. A ladder (and someone to hold it steady) is required for window washing. A soft chamois and cleaner specifically formulated for washing cars makes the finish cleaner and shinier. Make washing windows easier by purchasing two sizes of squeegees - a small one for multi-paned windows and a large one for sliding glass doors. Use the squeegee to dry the window for the quickest, streak-free finish. Take it from the Top to the bottom Clean one room at a time from top to bottom before moving on. Decide whether curtains and rugs go to the cleaners or get tossed in the washer with a laundry booster. Always start at the top. Sweep for cobwebs and wash ceilings and light fixtures first with a lambswool duster. Light fixtures that are dirty or greasy, as they are likely to be if located near the stove, need to be removed and washed in warm soapy water. Move down the walls, dusting pictures and decorations. The rest of the room can be best tackled by starting at the door and moving around the room. Pick up objects, dust, clean, remove spots, vacuum. Bring a box and a bag into the room. Your goal is to find a storage place for everything. Books go back in the bookcase, pictures back on the mantel. Loose papers need to be filed, tossed, or shredded. Spring cleaning is also the perfect time to weed out all the objects that are cluttering up your home. The box is for objects you plan to donate, give to friends, or sell at a yard sale. The garbage bag is for everything else you don’t want anymore that cannot be recycled. Spring may have sprung, but remember spring cleaning is for all seasons. Remember the Fuller Brush man?
