Tenacious Creations

 As of late there has not been much action going on with the Tenacious Creations site. Other projects and hobbies have place constraints on my time. Unfortunately Tenacious Creations has kind of been left out in the cold.

 But as another year comes to an end it is time to take a look back at some of the most popular posts of the year.

 These were the top three posts of 2008. I am hoping to get some new posts happening in 2009. However as with most New Years resolutions this one may get broken before it is started.

 Thank you to all who have read and commented on my posts through out 2008, I wish you a prosperous New Year and I hope you will continue to rad my posts for 2009.

 For those of you who are still checking this site every now and again you may have noticed a few changes. First off there is no longer an EntreCard widget in the top right hand corner. As I have not had the time to do regular updates EntreCard has decided to deactivate my account.

 To be quite honest this really does not bother me in the least. I seem to be have some many things to do and so little time to do them in. You will also notice the the lower right hand corner is now devoid of the BlogRush Widget. As some had suggested quite some time ago BlogRush was slowly dying. Well now it is dead and gone.

 So what does the future hold for Tenacious Creations? Well as there are still some pretty decent tutorials here. The site will remain active. As for updates, well hopefully I will get some extra time in which I can add some new interest tutorials on various subjects. If you have suggestions for new tutorials please leave them in the comments.

Thank you

 I am sure just about everyone has heard of Skype and perhaps a lot of you are already using it. Now it is not too often that I give a product rave reviews but once again Skype has performed above my expectations.

 For some time now I have been using Skype as an instant messenger and for some conference calls. Yes that is right you can do conference calls with Skype. Not all your participants in the conference call need to be on a computer either. You can use Skype dial out service (for a reasonable fee) to call participants and involve them in your conference call.

 If you read about improving traffic to your site or selling a product you have no doubt heard about branding. When I think of branding I am remind of growing up on the farm. I can still smell the mixture of red hot metal and seared flesh. Just like the brand on cattle identifies them as some ones property establishing a brand for your web site or product does the same thing.

 Examples of this are the golden arches of McDonald’s, the apple of Apple and I am sure now that you think of it several more come to mind. An effective brand will create an emotional response in the consumer. Why an emotional response? Well research has proven that if an advertiser can create an emotional response in the consumer the consumer will have a great chance of remembering the message.

 If you have been following my blog then you know I have been in negotiations to sell some software that I have created. While I still cannot talk about that do to various non-disclosure agreements. I will try to give a vague enough update so as to skate around the non-disclosure agreements.

 I will be getting paid a significant amount over two years. It was kind of like winning the lottery in a lot of ways. But due to the fact this is a large amount of money I knew I had to make sure it would be handled right. Instead of going out and buying that new house, new car and new motorcycle I went and talked to some accountants and financial planners.
