This book will appeal to bands, small businesses, online marketers, and anyone else who wants to promote themselves on Myspace. This book contains innovative strategies, tutorials and guidance on creating and marketing your MySpace profile. It teaches you how to use forums, bulletins, blogs, video and classified on MySpace to promote themselves, a band, a product, a company, or a service. In addition to the unique profile designs, you will receive tips on how to greatly increase your presence on MySpace. We will also uncover some of the lesser known techniques like using software to help automate the process and how to engage your customer multiple ways. MySpace Market Size: " 150 Million Total Members " Over 5 Million Band Profiles " 240,000 New Users Per Day * 60% of MySpace users are now 25 or older, according to HitwiseQueSean PercivalE-CommerceOctober 22, 2008http://safari.samspublishing.com/9780137154289Salesforce.com is one of the leading Sales Force Automation (SFA) systems, used by almost 750,000 people every week.  But most users fail to get the business benefits they expect because they don't know how to use the system properly or how to adjust their business practices for real results. What's been missing is a roadmap that can help them build an effective strategy for using the system. Though there is plenty of online documentation available, currently the only available option for obtaining guidance on business processes and SFDC optimization is to hire a consultancy at a cost of $300 an hour or more.This book is that missing roadmap. It provides specific checklists, spreadsheets, and other materials to improve the reader's business productivity, focusing on SFDC best practices, business processes, and providing a top-down perspective that up to now has only been available through expensive consultants.Prentice HallDavid TaberInformation Storage and RetrievalMay 08, 2009http://safari.samspublishing.com/9780470112328Why Going Against the Grain Pays.Bestselling author Bill Bonner has long been a maverick observer of the financial and political world, sharpening his sardonic wit, in particular, on the vagaries of the investing public. Market booms and busts, tulip manias and dotcom bubbles, venture capitalists and vulture funds, he lets you know, are best explained not by dry statistics and obscure theories but by the metaphors and analogies of literature.Now, in Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets, Bonner and freelance journalist Lila Rajiva use literary economics to offer broader insights into mass behavior and its devastating effects on society. Why is it, they ask, that perfectly sane and responsible individuals can get together, and by some bizarre alchemy turn into an irrational mob? What makes them trust charlatans and demagogues who manipulate their worst instincts? Why do they abandon good sense, good behavior and good taste when an empty slogan is waved in front of them. Why is the road to hell paved with so many sterling intentions? Why is there a  fool on every corner and a knave in every public office?In attempting an answer, the authors weave a light-hearted journey through history, politics and finance to show group think at work in an improbable array of instances, from medieval crusades to the architectural follies of hedge-fund managers. Their journey takes them ultimately to the desk of the chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank and to a cautionary tale of the current bubble economy. They warn that the gush of credit let loose by Alan Greenspan and multiplied by the sophisticated number games of Wall Street whizzes is fraught with perils for the unwary. Boom without end, pronounces The Street.  But Bonner and Rajiva are more cynical. When the higher math and the greater greed come together, watch out below!Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets ends by giving concrete advice on how readers can avoid what the authors call the public spectacle of modern finance,  and become, instead, private investors -  knowing their own mind and following their own intuitions. The authors have no gimmicks to offer here -   but instead give a better understanding of the dynamics of market behavior, allowing prudent investors to protect themselves from the fads and follies of the investment markets.Wiley FinanceAugust 31, 2007http://safari.samspublishing.com/9780735624467Now updated for Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista, this guide delivers in-depth technical information on Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6).
