Asia’s Internet and telecommunication infrastructure showed signs of recovery Thursday, following service disruptions caused by a series of powerful earthquakes off Taiwan’s southern coast earlier this week.

“It’s improving by the hour,” said Eric Loh, a spokesman for Starhub Internet Pte. Ltd., which offers cable and wireless Internet services in Singapore.

By 4.15 p.m. local time, Starhub had restored 80 percent of its Internet capacity by rerouting affected traffic to other undersea cables, the company said.

Google offer takes on PayPal

The Internet search giant introduced Google Checkout in June, with sweeteners such as free ad credits for merchants. In November, it began offering rebates to consumers, $10 off $30 purchases. PayPal quickly matched the offer.

Wednesday, Google ratchets up the pressure by dropping merchant fees through 2007.

“I’m thrilled,” says Lanny Morton, whose Sportscloseouts.com uses both Google Checkout and PayPal. “The online business is really competitive, and every little percentage helps.”

Merchants pay a variety of fees to use the services. PayPal charges 2.9% plus 30 cents per transaction on sales up to $3,000 a month. Google’s fee is 2% of the sale plus 20 cents, less if the merchant is a Google advertiser.

“Google has the potential to own this market,” says Fred Lerner, president of photo print and accessory site Ritz Interactive, which uses Checkout. “PayPal is essentially laying down and letting Google buy market share. “

Google’s consumer rebate can be used many times. The PayPal rebate expired in November, but the company is offering a one-time-use discount to selected customers via e-mail. Some stores may offer extra incentives through either service.

EBay had no comment on Google’s plans.

Benjamin Ling, the Google executive who runs Checkout, says it was not designed as Google’s answer to PayPal but as a way to cut down on the steps (registering, typing in credit card and shipping information) needed for consumers to complete a purchase.

Once consumers sign up for Google Checkout, they can make purchases with one or two clicks.

The company decided to drop its merchant fees for now as a way to induce more businesses to try Checkout. “Once people use our service, they love it,” Ling says.

Ling says “thousands” of merchants use Checkout, including Toys R Us, Buy.com and Ritz.

Google won’t say how many consumers have signed up for Checkout accounts.

PayPal says it has 123 million consumer account holders. It doesn’t disclose merchant account figures.

“In a retail sense, using Checkout as a loss leader to get market share works for Google, because they will make it up with more advertising, which is highly profitable,” says Martin Pyykkonnen, an analyst at equity firm Global Crown Capital.

EBay, however, has reason to be concerned, he says. “Twenty-five percent of eBay’s profits come from PayPal, so any pricing pressure isn’t a positive.”

Hi

I am going to give a guideline to the authors about including code blocks in their posts like code blocks of HTML.

If you want to fine-tune how treats your code, use the allow and lang attributes on the code tag to specify how Code Markup should handle it.

• <strong><code /></strong>or <strong><code /></strong>allows common HTML tags to be rendered, and displays everything else exactly as written.
  <li><code><strong><code /></strong>displays content exactly as written — no markup allowed.
  <li><code><strong><code /></strong>renders content as HTML — all markup is allowed.
  <li><code><strong><code /></strong>allows only <code /><em>, <code /><strong>and <code />tags to be rendered as HTML — everything else is displayed exactly as written. You can put whatever tags you like in the <code>allow attribute, separated by spaces. As a special case, you can include the comment tag — this means that HTML comments <!-- like this -->will be “rendered” as normal HTML comments (i.e. not displayed).

• <code lang="html" /><strong><em>or
</em></strong><code lang="xhtml" /><strong><em>displays content exactly as written, the same as </em></strong><code /><strong><em>.</em></strong><strong><em>The <code>allow attribute overrides the lang attribute.

   

  Examples

  Example: Test strings using aString < "foo".
  Display: Test strings using aString < "foo".

  Example:

  
  <pre><code lang="xhtml"><!-- paragraph -->     What's going on?  

  Display:

  <!-- paragraph -->     What's going on?  

  Example:

  
  <pre><code><!-- paragraph -->     What's going on?  

  Display:

  <!-- paragraph -->     What's going on?  

  Example:

  
  <pre><code> for (int i=0; i&lt;5; ++i) {    <span style="color: red">cout</span> < < "smap!" << endl; } 

  Display:

  for (int i=0; i&lt;5; ++i) {    <span style="color: red">cout</span> < < "smap!" << endl; }

  Example:

  
  <pre><code> <a href="http://fastcreators.com/article/<span%20style=">target-url">Link text
  <p />Display:
  <pre class="code"><code><a href="http://fastcreators.com/article/<span%20style=">target-url">Link text</a>

  I thank Bennet for providing this awesome plugin.

I wanted to let all of you know about a new social network that you can use to get viral exposure to your products/services immediately.

I’m sure most of you have heard about Internet Marketers using social networks like MYSpace and others to tap into wallets of prospective buyers. Heck some of you may be using this technique now.

But what if I told you that there was a new Social Network that has recently been dubbed “The new MYSpace for business” A Social Network that is highly targeted only available to entrepreneurs where you can meet new friends, develop new business contacts, build relationships with them, get viral exposure to your business, and never be banned for including your business details, products/services or web link?

But what if I told you that this new social network would also pay you while you build your network and invite others! After all wouldn’t it be fair that you get paid while your building the user base of the social network? You bet it is!

Rob Clark, Creator of BizFriendz.com had this to say- “I got tired of hearing about people trying to penetrate Myspace or other social networks to promote their products/services only to learn that they are getting banned or their profiles deleted because they violated their terms and conditions for “commercial use”.

So my idea was to develop a social network where a user will never be banned because they included their business information, products/services, or website in their profiles but in a professionally controlled environment.

But I also wanted to offer more to the users. I wanted to put a “Spin” on it in a big way.

And that is why I also made my social network free to join but capable of paying the users a 50% commission when they invited others into their network who later chose to upgrade their accounts. An incentive that has been very motivating and is creating a buzz online evident by the hundreds that have signed up just within a few days.

Rob also says that you don’t have to worry about getting spammed like in other social networks because each user can control how they are contacted within the network.

He also said that you can send announcements to your personal network about various events you can create within your account such as sales events, webinars, podcasts, teleseminars, viewing videos, etc. And guess what? You can actually earn money from the event ticket sales that you can create from your account! (If you choose to set event as fee and not free)

Think about the power of this for a minute?

You post your event in the BizFriendz Social network. Example: sales event of a product/service at your website that you offer for 50% off. You set the description, date and time, etc. of the sales event and post it live under “events” in the social network for everyone else in the entire BizFriendz network to see, attracting more people to your event. Then you also send out a bulletin or announcement to your BizFriendz network of people informing them of your sales events.

However if you choose to charge a small fee for the event tickets you created you then can eliminate the “tire kickers” and essentially pre-qualifying users as buyers. Increasing your conversions dramatically and making a few extra dollars in the process.

Of course there are too many scenarios of how selling tickets to your events can benefit you, but you get the picture.

Rob’s social network does have many, many more features and other ways you can leverage the system to increase your exposure for your business. Features like personal urls, Word Press blogs, forums, instant messaging, personal mail center, groups that you can join-or create and moderate, events system, listings where you can sell things like- domain names,websites, computers, or post a job, etc., keyword Hyper link searching technology, JV matching system (coming soon) and much ,much, more…….
Evident by the scores of new profiles that are being listed every few minutes on the site, there’s an obvious “viral frenzy” to sign up. Maybe it’s because others are seeing people that they recognize and know already listed in the network, including well known marketing “gurus” (the flash audio player is pretty cool too!)
Well Rob’s confirmation of a “viral frenzy” was with an astonishing number of sign-ups each day….

“The site has become extremely viral within about 2 weeks”, said, Rob. “some days we have seen as many as 200 people join the network, the sign-ups have been climbing steadily each day.”

Business owners are signing up in droves because there are no other social networks that have these powerful features or incentives to help you grow your business and drive your sales through the roof!
