As computers are becoming more popular, its accessories are also becoming expensive. For instance, if you are working at home, You may lose a lot of ink by printing labels, reports, invoices, your own promotional materials, and other similar things.

Companies make a lot of money on selling you the ink cartridges, without necessarily sell you the printer. One alternative to save money is by using high-quality generic and remanufactured cartridges that are compatible with your printer.

A trackBacks is a methods to request notification. For instance, a blogger B has written something interesting and that attracts. A blogger A has read what blogger B has written and want to send a TrackBack ping to him.

If blogger B receive many trackback, it can see all sites that have notified a particular post listed on his site.

So, when readers go on site B, they can read the site A and all related post that have reference on site B.

TrackBack was first created by Ben and Meana Trott after was launched Movable type and was been integrated into the features of most popular blog platforms as Wordpress and Typepad.

TrackBacks is similar  to pingback technology which provides security of checking to see if the pinging site actually exists.

Security

But can we be one hundred percent certain, that trackback are not used for other purpose? Unfortunately like any thing this system don’t prevent that automated trackBacks pingbots lets anyone send spam messages. In fact, trackback are used by many websites to send messages about mortgages online, online poker and viagra.

How To activate Trackback By default In Movable Type.

How To activate Trackback By default In TypePad.

Conventional wisdom says that social networks were born online with MySpace. It’s not true. The first social network was ClassMates.com. Created by Randy Conrads in 1995, the Classmates.com website helps users find, connect and keep in touch with friends from throughout their lives – including work, school, college, etc. Later the inevitable happens and last ten years has seen a grow” a “flourishing” in Social Networks like Friendster, Facebook, etc. Below, cronological list of other social networks.

 What About Social Networking Sites?

A social network is a social structure made of nodes (which are generally individuals or organizations) that are tied by one or more specific types of interdependency, such as values, visions, idea, financial exchange, friends, kinship, dislike, conflict, trade, web links, sexual relations, disease transmission (epidemiology), or airline routes. The resulting structures are often very complex. Source: Wikipedia.org

I see an unbundling of the services that make up social networks. While sites such as facebook or frienster, user can create a profile, add friends, and share similar interests, digg, de.li.cio.us or my 76newsalways.com are only user-submitted sites. Once you submit content, other people read.

In order to know the key point of differentiation between these two types of social networking, first we need to divide those sites under two different category: Note: That is a my teory, so if you are disagree I would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Centralized And Decentralized: What Do You Think?

For instance, Digg or Delicious are an example of a centralized social networking. Every time you submit a story, a feature allows users to vote search results up or down using a voting system. In this cas users are active partecipants and their actions influence the whole community.

That is because all members of Digg use the principal page of the different categories to stay updated with the hot stories around the website.

Twitter has become my favorite site and can be considered as a decentralized social network. That is because the system allows you to create your own micro communities and your actions inside those communities will not affect other members outside of them. You can decide who you follow, and other people in turn will decide if they want to follow you back or not.

Conclusion

By now you should know what I want to say when I talk about centralized and decentralized social networks. Social networking give you a chance to promote your website, yourself, express your opinions and much more.

I personally use each of these two type social networking. I think that networking is part and parcel of the independent publishers day-to-day work. There are few people these days that do not have a network broader than that of a generation or two ago.  What do you think?  people should avoid to promoting itself on social networking like Facebook, or their own content on sites like digg?

There are some important things you should remember when trying to choose a web host. The criteria for choosing between a free web host and a commercial web hosting solution are slightly different and must be evaluated good. For instance, how many sites per server do you host? Happens that hosting companies often have many servers and your bad luck might bring you on a slow or buggy. You may also have email problems with your host and receive a huge list of spammers.

So, here a bunch of pratical and useful advice to find a web host that doesn’t suck.

Hosting for sale. Can happens that a very good web hosting company was bought by a not good web hosting company and you just transferred away from.

Tech Support Comedy! You call for tech support and you receive an answer by one person with an Indian accent “Sir what is your problem?” …and you’re a woman.

Don’t Make Me Wait Too Long. You must wait for more than 40 minutes before to get the most common support options. If so, before you choose a web hosting make sure how long till first to get a response and how long till answer provided.

We are member of… They claim to be a member of the BBB( Better Business Bureau), instead is a show which takes place on the third Sunday of every month in Birmingham called the Birmingham Bizarre Bazaar.

Ruby on RailsYour, please! web hosting don’t provides RoR (Ruby on Rails) and the tech on the phone. Check up that they added both Ruby on Rails and phone on your web hosting account.

When Advertising is Too. You find a free web hosting service, but since you use it you notice they place ads all over your page.

Bandwidth. Is the amount of data that can be transmitted in a fixed amount of time. This isn’t the most important criteria. You’ll probably never be able to take advantage of it because of resource limitations as TOS, and a couple hundred page views a day, say probably uses only a few gigabytes in a month.

TOS (Terms of Service). When you choose a web host service make sure there is no some kind of limitation on your resources. Some will be vague about resource limitations, others more explicit. You’ll have to dig for this info, which is usually inside the TOS. Remember to read this document, which will includes any details as refunds, uptime guarantees, and other important details.

How many domains will you need?  Many low cost hosting  give you from one to few domains. Whether you intend to expand your business and build more than one site, or to publish more than one blog, make sure you can host all your domains under one plan.

Number of Databases. Some hosts offer unlimited domains, but give you a paltry number of databases to work with. Sure, you can put more than one blog in a single database, but I wouldn’t recommend it.

What do you need for a good support. Make sure your service host provides email, chat and/or phone support. If you’re new to hosting(or not) I’d recommend finding a host that offers phone support. Trying to explain what you don’t understand in an email or in a chat can be laborious and frustrating. If your host has just deleted your account without warning, you won’t always get an immediate answer by phone but it’s a relief when you do.

How To Find A Web Host

Web hosting Geeks website is a great way for people to read the web hosting reviews on site. Whether you want find all the the information regardless of whether it is simple hosting or multiple domain hosting, it the just place. The Hosting Geeks interface is well designed and allows you to browse the site and you will certainly find what you are looking for. Layout is impressively clean with a table with the Top 10 Web Hosts of 2007.

Twitter gives you the chance to publish your thoughts on the fly or tune into the thoughts and information streams of others users from around the world. Since starting a Twitter account, I have quickly learned some important things about how develop relationships.

If you are a smart web networker but you’re totally new to Twitter, it can be hard to find people that have similar interest or that share your interest. Whether you want develop new relationships or you want have a list of international contracts to keep in touch from your office, fortunately a great many third-party solutions allows you to extend the capabilities of Twitter or to interact with it in new and interesting ways.

If you just go at the top right of your Twitter homepage, you can notice a search box that lets you search for people, per locatin or any other term that might be in their Twitter profile.

It allows to see all the replies to you that other Twitter members have left. You can search by author, keyword and date with results available via RSS, email, and Twhirl.

Conclusion

With so many Twitter tools available online, you must only choose the right one for you. I would love to hear your thoughts on these or especially if you have any other possible tools.
