YouTube has drastically changed the way that the US Military has had to deal with public relations. Soldiers love to film combat and their activities - there is a saying in the military: “Joe always has a camera on him.” When inspecting a dead enemy soldier - or even a US soldier - you regularly find a camera, and its a piece of intelligence. In this case, US Marines murdering a puppy and filming it is going to cause serious PR and brand recognition damage to the US Marine Core, the US Military, and the United States as a whole. Marines are famous for their impressive WW II Pacific island invasions, Chesty Puller, and of course Sgt. Heartman from Full Metal Jacket - and now puppy tossing. Killing an animal in a combat zone is certainly no crime, as crimes against humanity probably happen on a daily basis. Keep in mind that there are “cute” website where hundreds of thousands of visitors go each day to see puppies and small kittens. Killing “cute...

A nice tribute to the great men and women who serve in the US Marine Corps. Living close to and serving Marines and their families at Quantico you learn the meaning of true dedication and service to our country. We can never say thank-you enough to our troops for all they do. Via Cherimie Crane, Beaufort SC Real Estate : They have come a long way from the tavern in Philadelphia where the Corps was founded 233 years ago.

Returning US Marines welcomed home in Alameda Monday, November 10, 2008 (11-10) 05:21 PST Alameda, CA (AP) -- It was an emotional welcome home for more than 100 U.S. Marines who just finished a tour of duty in Iraq.

Microsoft AdCenter - SES December 2007 - Discusses latest PPC keyword expansion tool

It has taken me forever to edit and post this video to YouTube. I hope you can learn more about PPC marketing on AdCenter with it. Microsoft introduced a new KW expansion tool that will basically generate insanely huge keyword lists - but I would debate the quality of these keyword lists. The results of one of their searches for “cars” didn’t seem relevant. Most PPC marketers will agree that though the volume on MSN and Live.com are a lot less than Google Adwords; it ... more

Ask.com receives 1-4% of US search traffic and is finding it impossible to increase that number. Chances are, Ask.com will never be able to increase that number to a reasonable rate. So what is Ask.com doing to possibly increase those numbers? Not a whole lot: they are firing 40 non-producing employees and “focusing on married women looking to manage their lives.” I could care less what Ask.com does to increase their traffic and revenue numbers - because I don’t ... more

I recently came across this Dermitage facial rejuvenation and wrinkle reduction product. Ever since I was a young boy I have seen products being advertised that claim to reduce wrinkles. I can also recall my Grandmother applying these products, her wrinkles were never reduced, but she did smell like an old woman with wrinkle cream (I love you Grandmother!). Below are a screen shot of the banner and website I came across: We can learn a great deal, from a marketing persp... more
