			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most people know how to use <a href="http://search.twitter.com/">Twitter search</a> by now. You use their unique algorithm to find both profiles based on  common interests or locations, or via live feed updates that are being  posted as we speak. This has made it a great way to find specific  information, especially for following and keeping up to date on certain  topics.</p>
<p>When it comes to Twitter, you might not think you can use their  search to save money, much less become more environmentally conscious.  But you would be wrong; it is easy to use their hashtag system to do  just that. That is because it doesn&#8217;t just link you with specific groups  or businesses. Instead, you find updates that are always changing that  use the same topic for interest.</p>
<p>You might be wondering what that means for you. Basically, you will  be able to find anyone who might be talking about saving money or living  a more sustainable life <em>in that moment</em>. Anyone talking about  it anywhere could have a good tip or a link that could benefit you, and  you will have the power to see whatever is more recent any time you  look.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>A few tips aside:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Here&#8217;s a great intro into what <a href="http://mashable.com/2009/05/17/twitter-hashtags/">Twitter hashtags really are</a> (and here&#8217;s <a href="http://www.searchenginejournal.com/twitter-hashtags/9419/">one more</a>)</li>
<li>Here&#8217;s a detailed article on creating and using <a href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/5-cool-twitter-search-tricks-monitor-people/">Twitter RSS feeds for tracking</a> new mentions of any word</li>
<li>Here&#8217;s the collection of great <a href="http://mashable.com/2011/03/25/advanced-social-media-search/">social media search tricks</a> (including Twitter tips)</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>Now, these ten hashtags can be used to save a little cash while  create a more self sufficient, sustainable and eco-conscious lifestyle.  All with a simple search and follow.</p>
<h2>5 For Saving Money</h2>
<p><img src="http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q62/anya678/New/twitter-frugal.jpg" alt="Twitter Frugal Living" width="450" height="342" /></p>
<p><strong>#savings &#8211; </strong>This hashtag will give you a ton of  options for deals which are linked from both personal and company  profiles. However, sometimes they can be a little hard to navigate  because they use locations to specify the deal. For example, you can  find savings in Boston, or in Atlanta. You might want to narrow it down a  bit to find what you are looking for.</p>
<p><strong>#frugality</strong> &#8211; If you are looking for tips on how to  save money in your day to day life, you will get a lot of them here.  #frugality is a hashtag used by people all over the web to tell about  how they managed to save a few dollars, or links to specials they have  come across. But mostly, there are ideas such as biking, using phones  during certain hours or places to buy items more cheaply second hand.</p>
<p><strong>#deals</strong> &#8211; This are almost exclusively online deals  from companies or websites that are third party for the stores. They  provide small explanations of those promotions, with a link out.  AmazonDeals commonly uses this hashtag, as does SheSpeaksDeals and  others.</p>
<p><strong>#bargains</strong> &#8211; I have noticed a lot of freebies posted  under this Twitter hashtag, which is a plus. Otherwise, it is just a way  of expressing excitement for personal account users on getting deals,  which can give you a nudge in the right direction. There are also some  savings sites that use it to talk about clearance or sales items on  online shops.</p>
<p><strong>#coupons</strong> &#8211; Everyone loves coupons, right? This  hashtag will point you to coupons from all over the web, as well as for  in-store deals you can print. Sometimes they just send you to linked  sales pages from local shops, which shows specials currently being  offered. This becomes a much more active hashtag between the months of  October &#8211; December, especially with Black Friday right around the  corner, and predictions popping up everywhere.</p>
<h2>5 For A Sustainable Life</h2>
<p><img src="http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q62/anya678/New/twitter-sustainable.jpg" alt="Twitter Sustainable hashtags" width="450" height="345" /></p>
<p><strong>#sustainability &#8211; </strong>Saving resources is an important  part of protecting our world. Especially in a time where the natural  items given from the Earth are so often exploited, with increasingly  dire consequences. #sustainability is all about eliminating waste  through better methods of extraction, policies and using what is already  available to us before going for something new.</p>
<p><strong>#slowfood &#8211; </strong>You know all about “fast food” and the  problems that come along with it. Now, there is a focus on “slow food”,  or that which is gained, made and traded in a more positive way. This  assists in both the planet, the people and local economies, and can be  equated to fair trade on a very basic level. This hashtag has tweets all  about that process, and how you can get involved.</p>
<p><strong>#sustainable</strong> &#8211; Rather than used alone, this hashtag  is usually combined with others that give it context, such as  #greenliving, #corporateresponsibility and others. It is similar to the  #sustainability hashtag, in that it informs and promotes on the process  of more replenishing and responsibly using resource, as well as finding  better ways to do things.</p>
<p><strong>#susty &#8211; </strong>This is a more obscure tag that uses an  abbreviation to speak about sustainability. It is usually put in posts  by individual users rather than foundations or companies. It is also  almost always partnered with other hashtags to generate context and make  it easier to share with others.</p>
<p><strong>#sustainableagriculture</strong> &#8211; Sustainable agriculture is  not a new concept, but it is one that it just developing mainstream  followers and interest. It is a means or producing and transporting food  that is positive for the environment, as well as for the people who  consume it. This usually include organic farms, but also anything that  is part of a program to deplete hunger on both local and global scales,  through distribution. You will also find posts dedicated to proper  animal treatment in the agricultural process, as well.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>It is interesting how sustainability and money saving go hand in  hand. When you make a real effort to reduce the use of resources, you  will be reusing or limiting the use of a number of products. This means  cash saved for you as your spending goes down, and a positive feeling of  helping yourself and others out.</p>
<p>Twitter has made it simpler than ever to share in this process and  learn how to do it more effectively. If you are a tweeter, but hashtags  do you use toward this purpose? Let us know in the comments, as well as  how it has been helping you to change your life.</p>

<p>Comscore have claimed that our of 4.3 billion video ads in the US in March, 1.2 billion of those were on Hulu. This seems to be an amazing amount of the market, but Google is yet to really venture into video streaming advertising (which Im sure will be coming on YouTube very soon).</p>
<p>Internet users spent a total of 1.9 billion minutes watching video   ads last month, ComScore said. Out of those, Hulu was the top property,   delivering 520 million minutes of video ad viewing. Overall, video ads   accounted for 12.7 percent of all ads viewed online in March, while the   average video ad ran for 24 seconds.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://buysellads.com" target="_blank">BuySellAds</a> are an advertising network that has been growing rapidly for the past few years. However, BuySellAds seems to be the advertising network no one is talking about. This aside BuySellAds are just about to launch a major upgrade to their site and service.</p>
<p>Here is what is changing at BuySellAds:</p>
<ul>
<li>The New Directory: certain users may have seen the preview of this already, but it is now live for everyone. Please check this out if you haven&#8217;t already!</li>
<li>Scheduled Reports: advertisers can download their ad data to CSV on  the fly, and also schedule recurring reports to be emailed to them under  Buy Ads &gt; My Ads &gt; Reports.</li>
<li>Leaderboards: we have setup an initial set of leaderboards based on  different performance criteria that can be found under Buy Ads &gt; Leaderboards.</li>
<li>Bundles: we have packaged together groups of sites into “bundles” that advertisers can use to make targeted ad buying even easier.</li>
<li>Performance by Ad: advertisers can now see how each creative performs compared to others.</li>
<li>Lists:  advertisers are now able to create custom lists (as opposed to having  to use the cart to plan your ad campaign) and manage their lists much  better than before.</li>
<li>Recommendations: advertisers will find both hand-picked and  automatically-generated recommendations throughout the app based on  purchasing history.</li>
<li>Earnings: publishers are now able to pull up a dedicated daily  earnings report. We expect the new earnings report section will evolve  over time as well, as we add different views on publisher earnings data.</li>
</ul>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-15807" title="buysellads" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/buysellads-577x408.jpg" alt="" width="577" height="408" /></p>
<p>Im a big fan of the new user interface for Buying Ads. It seems like it is going to be a lot easier to find the best sites and find the demographic you are wanting to target as an advertiser.

		<description><![CDATA[With Verizon rumored to be the next network to play home to Apple's iPhone, how will this impact Blackberry and Android users on the network currently? Apple could see some huge numbers in 2011 if the rumor is true.<p><a href="http://crenk.com/2010/08/17/verizon-to-bolster-apple-bottom-line/">Verizon to Bolster Apple Bottom Line?</a> originally appeared on: <a href="http://crenk.com">Crenk</a>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-11999" href="http://crenk.com/verizon-to-bolster-apple-bottom-line/verizon-iphone-3/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-11999" title="Verizon-iPhone" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Verizon-iPhone.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="405" /></a>The question asked since the announcement that iPhone was going to be on the AT&amp;T network is &#8220;When are they leaving AT&amp;T?&#8221; It&#8217;s an honest question based on real and honest situations of dropped calls, overworked networks, and bad customer service. It&#8217;s probably unfair to lay all the blame on the service provider, as I&#8217;m sure the iPhone is not without faults of its own, but unfortunately AT&amp;T is definitely getting the heat. So while iPhones have outsold most other handsets around the world, there are still a large majority holding out for the day when the iPhone is available on another network.</p>
<p>Are you one of those people? Rumors have circulated across various sites that Apple has been courting Verizon as the next network to gain access to the iPhone as early as Quarter 1, 2011. While all signs point to yes, the evidence is not conclusive and thus speculation persists. Considering the dominance that the iPhone has on the cell phone market, it&#8217;s safe to assume that the majority not using the iPhone are either Blackberry or Android users, with others following into the minority of other OS platforms.</p>
<p>In market research conducted by Morpace, subscribers on Verizon alone are awaiting the transition of the iPhone onto the Verizon network. Of 1000 people surveyed, 23% said they&#8217;d most likely buy it, while a whopping 51% of Verizon subscribers said they were waiting to buy it. This segment of Verizon subscribers could bolster Apple&#8217;s numbers heavily when/if the transition takes place as rumored. AppleInsider even predicts that it could put Apple in the lead, far ahead of it&#8217;s competitors. The platforms mostly threatened by the iPhone being offered on Verizon would be Blackberry and Android, so it will be interesting to see how this will effect the numbers.</p>
<p>If it happens, Apple could see quite a profitable 1st Quarter. So where do you stand? Are you waiting for the iPhone to be offered on another network or are you happy with your Blackberry, Android, or other phone platform?

<p>Someone took a lot of his time to develop some kind of animated video in real life; the details are spectacular, movements and the game experience resemblance with the original is incredible. Take a look:</p>

<p>I can only imagine that this took a lot of patient work.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Symantec Labs completed <a href="http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/messagelabs-intelligence-elaborates-linux-spam">a research about the use of botnets and the origins of spammer machines</a> and the results, as unexpected as it sounds, the great majority of machines available in the world working as botnets are using Linux operating system.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-10508" title="spam01" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/spam01-577x465.jpg" alt="" width="577" height="465" /></p>
<p>Here are some of the facts shown in this report:</p>
<ul>
<li>87% of spam analyzed came from botnets.</li>
<li>Linux only used 36% of botnets to send spam.</li>
<li>English language spam is the most used.</li>
<li>Portuguese spam appeared as the second most used with 6%, large differences with other languages.</li>
<li>The most common spam is the pharmaceutical spam. You know, Viagra stuff and that kind of thing.</li>
</ul>
<p>Here’s a little sample about those pharmaceutical spam:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-10509" title="spam02" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/spam02-472x450.jpg" alt="" width="332" height="315" /></p>
<p>As part of this investigation, the analysis found that most of these machines are running also an open source mail transfer agent like Postfix or SendMail, which they’ve been configured to open up all the necessary ports, making those servers an easy target for hackers.</p>
<p>Most organizations use these kinds of “free” platforms to control their mail infrastructure and do not realize the big security concerns involved on each of them if those are not configured correctly.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.tigertext.com/"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-9983" title="tiger01" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/tiger01.png" alt="" width="291" height="87" />TigerText.com</a> is looking to provide people that wish to protect their SMS conversations a new and powerful tool. This app offers the text sender the possibility to decide when the text message should be deleted from the receiver’s device.</p>
<p>Let’s take a quick look of how does it works:</p>
<ol>
<li>You, the sender, and the receiver have the TigerText app installed. Yes, both devices must have installed this application; but there’s a free reader option.</li>
<li>Before sending the text message, you set the lifespan of the text message, for example 2 hours.</li>
<li>If the receiver reads it or not, the message is deleted from the sender and receiver device. There’s also the option for “Delete on Read”, that will last until the receiver opens it.</li>
</ol>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-9985" title="tiger02" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/tiger021-491x450.png" alt="" width="491" height="450" /></p>
<p>TigerText works with iPhone, iPod Touch and several BlackBerry devices (beta stage). Here’s the complete list of supported BlackBerry: Bold 9700, Bold 9000, Tour 9630, Curve 8500 &amp; Curve 8900 Series. TigerText does not currently support the Storm, older Curves, Pearl, or other Legacy Blackberry Devices. Android will be available soon.</p>
<p>The only free option for this application is the reader, where you can obviously only read messages sent with TigerText but you don’t have the capability to protect your outgoing SMS. You can acquire the 250 SMS bundle for only U$S1.49 and also you have the unlimited option for U$S2.49.</p>
<p>Oh and in case you were wondering about why the TigerText name; there’s nothing to do with the Tiger Woods incident, the company explained that the name born because “Tigers are notoriously difficult animals to track” (?).

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As you know, the moment that Kindle appeared in the market, the e-readers are getting a lot of attention from companies and users. And the iPad is not an exception, there are a lot of projects involved to develop some interesting features to transform it in a Kindle competitor; but I guess none of them compared with Penguin project.</p>
<p>In this video you can check it out:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="295" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/jdExukJVUGI&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="295" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/jdExukJVUGI&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>You’ll get some nice games for your kids, and an amazing coloring book options. Working with the human body in an anatomy section; a travelling guide; and also “Star Finder” an encyclopedia of the solar system and universe.</p>
<p>One of the strangest options is the “Vampire Academy” that represents a vampire novel that includes a live chat. Not sure if this one will make any difference.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-7961" title="Western Digital My Book 3.0" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/mybook.jpg" alt="Western Digital My Book 3.0" width="150" height="150" />There just doesn&#8217;t seem to be enough storage for all of our needs these days. At the rate we&#8217;re downloading purchases from audio and video sites, the rate we&#8217;re producing content with access to video creators, web cams, and more, storage seems to be a very valued commodity these days. Most of us rely on what our systems come with, then perhaps turning to cloud storage for a few things, but ultimately a lot of us have external hard drives to store our information off the main system. As much as I love the <a title="Drobo offers amazing mass storage options in a variety of sizes." href="http://www.drobo.com" target="_self">Drobo</a>, that&#8217;s just a huge expense that I&#8217;m not sure I want to drop right now. If you&#8217;re looking for something simple with lightning fast connectivity, then look no further than the <a title="WD My Book 3.0 offers fast storage capabilities." href="http://store.westerndigital.com/store/wdus/en_US/DisplayProductDetailsPage/categoryID.36026100/parid.13092300/catid.13092800" target="_self">WD My Book 3.0</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-7960"></span>The My Book 3.0 ($200) offers connections using USB 3.0 which is ten times faster then it&#8217;s 2.0 counterpart. The speed is amazingly fast, pushing almost 5GB of data per second. The device also comes with a USB 3.0 card for you to install in your system, but it also work with 2.0 connections for other computers you might be connecting it to. The transfer rates alone make this device a must have for those of us storing large amounts of data and who access it regularly.<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-7962" title="My Book 3.0 speed comparison chart." src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/mybook_samples.jpg" alt="My Book 3.0 speed comparison chart." width="250" height="184" /></p>
<p>The device itself is small, takes up minimal space, and actually looks like a book standing upright in a shelf. The sleek design gives it a minimalist look of elegance. It&#8217;s formatted for Windows machines only, connecting to Windows XP, Vistsa, and the new Windows 7.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.bedrock.com/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-7597" style="margin: 5px" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/h1_bedrock.png" alt="Bedrock logo" width="211" height="34" /></a>As a website owner, one normally has to pick and choose between a range of off the shelf  &#8216;creatives&#8217;, display ads, banners or keyword sets from ad networks like Adsense, Tribal Fusion or DoubleClick that are provided by the people who want to sell their products, Dell, Amazon, Chevrolet etc. These ads often clash with a publisher&#8217;s website, and can run out of inventory and revert to remnant or filler ads selling tooth whitening products or smileys, depending on how one sets up the account. Bedrock offers a different type of ad exchange, where publishers design their own ad slots on their website &#8211; a tech blog like ours might offer a link to a web hosting service, or an ISP, and instead of using the advertisers&#8217; own ad format, we would provide a text link, or own-branded display ad that links through to whichever approved service provider makes the highest bid for the particular click that comes through that link. The ad will stay the same, but the advertisers bid on the inventory listed by the publisher (site owner), meaning that one click on the link saying, &#8220;buy a new laptop&#8221; might go to Amazon, and the next to eBay, depending on which of them is prepared to pay the most for the traffic, on a click by click basis.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s an intriguing idea, but one that depends on having a large number of advertisers on the roster to compete with one another &#8211; and Bedrock will have a tough time dragging those people away from the traditional services, abandoning the freedom to use their own ads in the process. On the other hand, it does put more power in the hands of the publishers to control the content of their own website, and push the ad content that earns them money on their own terms &#8211; after all, they know their user base best, and can adapt to serve their needs better. Another tool in the advertising arsenal can&#8217;t be bad. If you have any experience using Bedrock, please post a comment!
