Advantages and Disadvantages of Podcasting

Advantage: Convenience

With podcasting, you do not have to worry that your audience is busy offline when you make your sales pitch. A listener can download the file and replay it at whatever time is convenient for him, even while jogging or driving to work. If someone chooses to subscribe to your podcast feed, he can get any podcasts of interest downloaded automatically. If you want all your employees to hear what you have to say, podcasting is often easier than trying to get everyone together for one meeting.

Displaying RSS Feeds

Displaying RSS
RSS offers webmasters a unique opportunity to display fresh content on websites. While publishing an RSS feed is a great way to generate site interest and increase communication, syndicating and displaying feeds from related relevant sources can also generate interest, increase traffic and improve search engine ranking.

RSS Radars
Webmasters with limited time or capacity can syndicate related content. In a nut shell, webmasters can create RSS radars by combining a mix of content from related sources by grouping similarly-themed feeds. RSS feeds are updated at different intervals, providing an ever-changing collection of related information.

RSS is a form of eXtensible Markup Language or XML. Viewing an RSS feed in a web browser generally produces code that is not easy for website visitors to decipher. As a result, webmasters use tools to display the content contained in an RSS feed.

Content contained in RSS feeds can be added to websites a number of different ways. Each method for displaying the RSS feed has pros and cons associated with it. Webmasters will need to determine which option will best meet their hosting and technology needs.

Displaying Photos in the Everything Report

As I use Behold to build my HTML webpage for my family research, I realize I will have to include thumbnails of photos. Up until today, I hadn't thought of a good way to do that.

GEDCOM files can specify IMG tags, which give the location of an image on the local computer. But TRichview, which I'm using as the engine for the Everything Report, does not yet properly wrap text around images. My plan was to wait until they implemented that.

But then I realized that I simply want to display a thumbnail (very small version) of each picture on its own line, with any descriptive text about it on the right. So an easy implementation would be a table with one row and two columns. In the first column is the image. In the second is the textual information. No word wrap around the image is necessary and it should look quite nice.

Now what about getting the full image. The idea was to click on the image to bring up the original. That would be possible from from the Everything Report in Behold, also possible from the HTML web page Behold produces, and probably possible as well from the RTF Behold can output.

But then I discovered something quite elegant. There is a really nice Photo-Zoom capability available for web pages. You just put your mouse over the thumbnail and the full size image instantly appears in the same window. No clicking or new windows required. It is very user friendly and useful!

What I'll do is finish up the current version, hopefully in the next week or so. I've only got 18 more days until this alpha version expires. But since I need the photos in Behold's output for my project, I'll add the thumbnail capability as the first thing after this version is released. And if it's not too hard, I'll try to add the photo-zoom as well. That will be a killer feature if add it.

So you won't have to wait for images until Version 3 anymore. It'll be in Version 1.

Getting Ready to Display Photos

My organization of my Romanian family is going to take about a week to complete. I plan to put the resulting Behold-produced page on my website so that my cousins and our researcher in Romania can all have access to the most up-to-date info at all times. Then, as new information comes in, I'll add it to the GEDCOM, and use Behold to produce a new web page.

I'll be organizing the photos for this project as well. Thumbnails, info about the pics, and links to larger versions of the pics will need to be included. That's what I want to add to Behold while I do all this. I better get to work and see how it goes.

La importancia de un buen diseño personalizado para los stands de feria



En el vertiginoso mundo del marketing, donde la competencia es feroz y la atención del público es un bien preciado, la participación en ferias y eventos se ha convertido en una estrategia fundamental para destacar y conectar con clientes potenciales. Sin embargo, en este escenario saturado, la diferencia entre pasar desapercibido y dejar una impresión duradera radica en un elemento aparentemente simple pero crucial: el diseño personalizado de los stands de feria.

En mi experiencia, un stand en una feria solo tiene sentido si se van a hacer actividades en éstos. Se pueden organizar charlas, degustaciones o demostraciones que atraigan a los clientes, pero, en definitiva, un buen diseño ayuda a distinguirse en medio de la lucha por la atención de los visitantes.

La Identidad de Marca en Acción

Un diseño personalizado no se trata simplemente de colocar el logotipo y los colores corporativos en un roll up o en un stand retráctil. Va mucho más allá, abrazando la esencia de la marca y traduciéndola en colores, formas y mensajes visuales. Cada detalle, desde la disposición del espacio hasta la elección de los colores, debe reflejar la personalidad de la marca. Este enfoque cohesivo crea una experiencia inmersiva para los visitantes del stand, permitiéndoles no solo recordar la marca, sino también conectar emocionalmente con ella.

Sin duda, los mejores stands que he visto combinan de manera brillante un diseño que sigue la identidad de la marca, pero puede llevarla más allá de manera orgánica y natural o generando sensaciones de sorpresa ante una propuesta visual audaz.

Maximizando la Experiencia del Visitante

Un diseño personalizado no solo es estéticamente agradable, sino que también está estratégicamente pensado para maximizar la experiencia del visitante. La disposición del espacio, la interactividad, y la incorporación de elementos multimedia son aspectos que deben ser cuidadosamente considerados. Un stand bien diseñado no solo atrae miradas, sino que también invita a la participación, fomentando conversaciones significativas y creando memorias perdurables.

A veces, un vídeo atractivo que capte la atención del visitante desde lejos es suficiente.  Otras, se requiere de una labor proactiva por parte del personal de apoyo para atraer a la gente.  También hay que tener claro que habrá personas que huyan si perciben un stand demasiado intrusivo.

Diferenciación en un Mar de Competidores

En un evento donde numerosas empresas comparten el mismo espacio, la diferenciación es la clave del éxito. Un diseño personalizado permite destacar entre la multitud, creando un oasis visual que atrae naturalmente a los visitantes. La coherencia entre el diseño y el mensaje de la marca garantiza que la empresa no solo sea vista, sino también recordada.

Aunque la inversión en un diseño personalizado puede parecer un desembolso inicial relevante, lo que se obtiene a largo plazo es incuestionable. La impresión positiva generada en eventos de feria se traduce en un mayor recuerdo de la marca, lealtad del cliente y, en última instancia, un retorno de la inversión sustancial. Es una apuesta estratégica que merece la pena realizar.

En conclusión, en el competitivo mundo del marketing, donde la atención es un bien escaso, un diseño personalizado para los stands de feria no es un lujo, sino una necesidad. Es la herramienta que transforma un espacio físico en una narrativa visual, permitiendo que las marcas destaquen, conecten y dejen una impresión imborrable en la mente de su público objetivo. En última instancia, la inversión en un diseño personalizado no solo se traduce en éxito en eventos de feria, sino que también establece una base sólida para el crecimiento continuo de la marca en el panorama empresarial.

Katrina's Disaster Victims Face Social Security Issues

August 31, 2005 – As the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) swings into high gear to provide disaster relief to victims of Hurricane Katrina, ACCESS has learned that the Social Security Administration has no procedures to help many of these same victims get back on their feet. The problem that many victims face is that they escaped with only the clothes on their backs; meaning that they have too little iformation for the Social Security Administration to reissue them Social Security Cards. This means that storm victims face a variety of problems that neither they, nor the Federal Government have ever even considered.

Economic Survival in a Natural Disaster

January 19, 2006 – There is a lot of talk in the media about natural disasters. In the past year the United States has faced hurricanes, flooding, tornados and fires. The first thing on the mind of anyone who goes through a disaster is physical survival. But what very few people consider is economic survival. Just because you lose all of your physical possessions doesn’t mean that you have to lose everything that you have worked for all of your life. But in order to survive economically, you need to do some pre-planning.
