Twitter Vs. TextingIn Feburary 2016 28,

In Feburary 2016 28,
Text messages are written notes sent from cell phone to cell phone. Very similar to online chat or instant messaging, text messaging uses emoticons like the world-famous smiley face :) to express feelings in the messages. Texting is the verb used to refer to the act of sending a text message. Texting is now so popular that answering machines and voice mail are becoming obsolete because of it.
Twitter
Twitter is actually a web-based social network that has achieved immense popularity. Even celebrities and political figures have taken to tweeting. A tweet, derived from the website name Twitter, is an online status posting by a member of Twitter. The tweet does not have to have a specific recipient. You can simply tweet what you are doing or what's on your mind at that moment. The tweet is then sent out to others on the network who follow your tweets, or it can be set up so it can be viewed by anyone.
Advantages of Texting Over Tweeting
A text message maintains privacy. It is sent between you and your recipient, and no other party will be able to view it. When you send a text message, the recipient's cell phone will ring or vibrate, notifying the person that a text has been received. He can then read it at his convenience and reply if he wishes.
Advantages of Tweeting Over Texting
Tweets do not have a primary recipient. This makes them much more useful to make an announcement to all your friends, where you would have had to send out dozens of text messages to get the same effect. It also is convenient for just making general observations or updating relatives and friends on what you are up to. Unlike a text message, it won't actually alert them specifically. If they log in to Twitter, they will be able to see your post, but they will not be interrupted just to get the message.
Price
Text messaging is still a service that is calculated by the number of texts sent and received. Wireless providers usually have two or three plans with varying numbers of texts for a flat fee, and then you will be charged a fee if you go over your predetermined limit. Most providers also have a certain price for unlimited texting that usually rivals the cost of the phone plan itself. Tweeting is completely free from a computer, and if you have a smart phone with the internet activated, it will be free on the move as well.

How to Start an Online Goody Bag BusinessIn Feburary 2016 28,

In Feburary 2016 28,
Determine the type of goody bag products you are going to sell. Try to specialize within the niche. For instance, you can sell eco-friendly goody bags made from all-natural materials or hand-made gifts and treats. You can specialize in food items, or international gift items. Keep your product line simple and categorize your products according to price.
Analyze domain name options. Think of a domain name that reflects your product. Avoid using your business registered name but instead use a fictitious or DBA (Doing Business As) name that reflects the goody bag product. Remember the domain name is the name that will be remembered by customers, and it is easier to remember a name that is associated with goody bags.
Locate a webhosting service. Most of the websites that sell domain names also sell web hosting packages. As this is an e-commerce site use a webhosting space that is midsized. Pay on a monthly or yearly basis. Most web hosting companies charge between $5 to $10 a month.
Look through different website templates and e-store templates websites like Website Templates, Stylish Template or Steve's Templates to find one that may be appropriate for your new online goody bag business. Be sure the template has shopping card options. Write the descriptions and content for the goody bag website. Hire a freelance web designer to help you load the website you chose to your domain name.
Promote the website. Create a Facebook and Twitter account and add members and fans. Tweet about your goody bag service and explain why these make nice gifts for friends or business associates. Write articles about your product explaining the benefits and the types of gifts that can be chosen to be a part of the goody bag. Post the information on your website or blog. Create listings on auction websites like eBay Etsy. Place a link to your website in your listing. Place advertisements on bulletin boards like Craigslist or the Bulletin Board. Add your website address to business cards, and letterhead. Leave your business card on restaurant or store bulletin boards so people can find your website. Send out newsletters, and promotionals to customers who do buy from you.
Hire a search engine optimization specialist to help you list your website on a first page in the search engines. Think of search terms people might use to find a website like yours. Write these terms or keywords down and give them to the SEO specialist. Have him help you get a first page listing under those terms or other keywords like gifts, gift bags, goody bags, and others that refer to your particular niche. This way people will find your online goody bag business when looking for those terms.

How to Create a Video Hosting WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 26,

In Feburary 2016 26,
Purchase a domain name for your website. A domain name is the address your customers will type in to access your site (yourvideohostingsite.com). Domain registrars typically charge between $1 to more than $14 per year.
Obtain web hosting for your site. A web host maintains various servers that manages the content and your subscribers who will come to your website. Choose a web host that provides a lot of memory for the lowest cost because your videos may require much memory. Web hosts can charge anywhere from $3 to more than $100 a month.
Determine if you would like to provide videos or if you want your subscribers to upload their own videos to your site, like YouTube. Answer this question before you start creating a website because the programming code required for others to upload videos will be different than if you want to upload videos yourself.
Sketch out the content, look and feel of your website using either a piece of paper and/or word processing software. You must know ahead of time what colors you would like to use and your welcome message, along with other information. Use a word processing software, such as Microsoft Word, that can be sent to your web designer.
Hire a freelance web designer to create your website. Hire your freelance web designer from sites like GetAFreelancer.com or Elance.com. Web designers from around the world will bid on your project based on your budget. Ensure your web designer has experience with programming codes necessary to upload videos.
Invite friends and family at different times of the day to access your site to view and upload videos to ensure there are no technical issues that need to be resolved before you go live.

PHP Mkdir Permission Does Not WorkIn Feburary 2016 25,

In Feburary 2016 25,
The list of permissions you supply to the 'mkdir' function are valid only on Linux-based file systems. This means you cannot associate permissions with a directory you create under Windows. If you pass permissions with the 'mkdir' function under Windows, PHP simply ignores them.
Default User Account
Remember that a script run on a Web server from a browser runs under the default user account on the Web server such as 'www-data,' not under your user account. If directory permissions are not working, it may be because you are testing a script under your account instead of the default user account. You can test the script as the default user by typing 'su www-data' and exploring the directory permissions assigned to that user.
Directory Mask
If the resulting permissions of a new directory are different from what you passed, it may be because of a directory mask applied to the permissions. The mask is maintained by the Web server, not by PHP. To circumvent the mask, use the 'umask' function to set the mask to zero, create the directory using 'mkdir' and change the directory permissions using the 'chmod' function. For example:
$save = umask(0);
if (mkdir($newdir)) chmod($newdir, 0755);
umask($save);
?>
Recursive Assignment
The 'mkdir' function takes a second optional argument that creates nested directories recursively. When you assign directory permissions recursively, the permissions may not be executed in the proper order and you might get different results from what you expected. To ensure the proper order, use the 'chmod' function to assign directory permissions to the new directory after you create it with the 'mkdir' function. For example:
if (mkdir($newdir, 0755, true)) chmod($newdir, 0755);
?>

The package also includes filters to block out unsolicited email advertisements, also known as spam. The software is written in the Python web scripting language, but includes some security modules in the C programming language.
OpenEMM

PHPList gives list administrators the ability to tracks links and URLs embedded in the email messages and compiles statistics by message, URL and subscriber. Businesses of nearly every size can use the software, as it is scaleable to up to 100,000 subscribers.
