Google Search Results versus Yahoo Search Results

At first glance, there seems to be no difference. But look closely. While Yahoo gives you the most popular sites regarding the topic you're searching for, Google gives you MORE and BETTER search results. Just try to type Barack Obama, and you'll see that Google Search will show you an index of pages that are not present in Yahoo Search.

The result? Google wins by unanimous decision.

The Home Page: Who Gets The Vote?

The home page is very important because it gives readers an overview of what's happening in the world on a specific day. Google is known for its simple, "uncomplicated" page (is there such a word as 'uncomplicated?). All it has is a simple field where you can type your search keyword and some additional buttons.

Yahoo is different. The home page contains news, information, games, e-mail and many other features. You can even do your own online research survey by looking at the "Today's Top 10 Searches" section (this feature is vital for bloggers who need to choose popular topics to write about). Yahoo News gives you fresh updates every half hour or so. Being on Yahoo gives you a feeling that you're up to date with all the events of the world.

The outcome? Yahoo wins by KO.

Unique Search Engine Features

Both Yahoo and Google have unique search engine features that the other doesn't have. For example, Yahoo Search gives you the capability to have a 'video' search and a 'shopping' search. Google, meanwhile, offers you a chance to do a 'blog' search, where you can surf all kinds of blogs on a specific topic. Both of these unique features are highly useful, and I cannot live online without having one of them around!

Who wins? Well, it's clearly a draw!

The Email Service Is Where The Rubber Meets The Road

This is where the going gets tough. Both of these search engine networks offer outstanding email services. So the question is this: Is Yahoo Mail better than Gmail? Well, I don't know the stats and all those complicated stuff, but I agree that Yahoo is the "the best frequented web based email", as stated on the Yahoo Mail home page. However, Gmail seems to be catching along pretty quick.

This is an unofficial verdict, but I think Yahoo wins by a narrow margin -- a split decision.

Google Adwords/Adsense vs. Yahoo Search Advertising

The advertising and publishing service that Yahoo offers appeals to big website owners. When I say 'big', I meant websites that have huge amounts of commercial traffic, and this includes company home pages, professional business sites, and websites owned by companies which are popular in the world. However, Yahoo Search Advertising is a pay per click method that is yet to outperform the Google advertising system (am I biased? I don't think so). Here's why:

Google Adwords (advertising aspect), and Google Adsense (publishing aspect), appeals to the 'little guy' and individual blog/website owners. Virtually anyone who has a blog or website can advertise and publish with Google. And because Google owns Blogger.com (one of the largest free blog providers), anyone who has a Blogger account can register with Google Adsense, a pay per click publishing service that pays you for placing Google ads on your blog. This unique appeal to the masses places Google on top of all online advertising systems, and they might stay on top for a long time. So in terms of advertising, Google wins by KO!

But when it comes to indicating which is the best search engine on this planet, YOU will be the one to ultimately decide. So what's your pick?

Fortunately it is possible to make money on the Internet, and it is also possible to get rich; you just need to realize it will take a long time to happen and it will take a lot of effort to get it there. In order to start down a path towards financial freedom, start looking for systems that make you money without you having to put further effort into them (beyond effort of their first creation). Royalties are a good example of this. A writer pens a novel, sells it to a publisher, then continues to receive royalties from sales of the work for as long as the work is available. The novel requires no more effort from the writer beyond the effort to make it, but becomes a valuable source of income thereafter.

A job on the other hand requires constant effort. As soon as you make your weekly pay, you have to go back and do it all over again to make next week's pay. Your job will always require your attention. Any kind of paid work suffers from the same problem.

The goal is simple, to free yourself from the work>money cycle. The methods of achieving this are many and varied, and depend largely on what you're good at and passionate about. For example, photographers can sell their photographs on stock photography websites. Musicians can sell their compositions on stock music websites. Those who are good with computers can create a vast array of content for the multimedia thirsty 21^st century. Programmers can create games or programs. The product doesn't matter, so long as you own the rights to it. The idea is simple, if you own content you can license that content to third parties who will sell it on your behalf (for this purpose digital content is favourable to physical products since an unlimited number of copies can be sold).

The next step is to set up a system that takes care of sales automatically, so that you never need attend to it. You might have to do this yourself, or hire someone to do it for you. Fortunately in a lot of cases, there are third parties who sell what you're offering, and are always on the look out for contributors. Such companies will take care of the website, advertising, administration, and paying you, leaving you to worry only about supplying them content and spending (or saving) your royalties.

Such websites include dreamstime.com and istockphoto.com for photography; revostock.com for stock movies and music; constant-content.com and triond.com for writers (not to mention the endless possibilities open to fiction writers). 3d02.com and 3dexport.com are where the tech savvy can sell 3D digital objects. For those who yearn for a serious challenge garagegames.com is worth checking out with a platform allowing amateurs to create their own computer games (and casual games are very popular these days).

So to put it simply, you're looking to switch from being an employee to a content owner. Of course, none of this will help you get rich overnight. Getting a loan and starting a business would surely be faster, but that I'm afraid is outside the scope of this article.

Be prepared to make very little. If the kind of residual income mentioned in this article was easy to come by, then lets face it, no one would be working. A simplified rule is; the more content you have, then the more income you can get out of it all. Through dedication and hard work having content will pay off in the long term, but first aim for realistic targets.

1. Your first target is to make two dollars per day. “Two dollars per day!!” you surely exclaim. Yes – don't give up your day job quite yet – but aim for that. Once you reach it consider yourself fortunate because half the world's population – 3 billion people – live on less than two dollars per day. If you're making that from residual income then you're doing well. If you're able to set up a system that makes two dollars a day then there's no reason why you can't reach ten dollars a day, or twenty dollars a day (and so on). Now you can see where this is going...
2. Second target: pick a bill (rent, electricity, phone) and aim to get your residual income to the stage where it covers your bill. Once that's covered, move onto the next bill. Repeat until all your bills are covered.
3. Third target: savings. Start saving some of your residual income, so that interest can add value to it. The savings will also play an important role later in smoothing out the ups and downs of the residual income.
4. Fourth target: diversify. Once you have a residual income, the last stage is to diversify. Only by having a number of separate sources do you ensure against disaster. Any one source of income could dry up at any time. Diversification is key. Once you reach this stage, then you should also have plenty spare money to reinvest back into making more money.

By working through this list, someday you'll likely find that you have the financial freedom to pursue your own projects and your own agenda. By freeing yourself of the work>money cycle you are leaving yourself open to a vast array of possibilities that would otherwise have passed you by (because you were busy making someone else rich). It's not a get rich quick scheme, but it has its merits. Not all of us are in the right place at the right time, to spot a niche, to invent a winning product, or invest in the next hot stock... but we can all invest time to create content, in whatever shape or form it takes, and subsequently enjoy the benefits that residual income brings.

Ways of getting the picture

The first thing to realise is that you don't need an expensive camera - a digital 'point and shoot' camera or a good camera in a 'camera phone' is quite OK.

As an alternative you can use a film camera, have the film developed and then printed and finally scan in the print. However, this is not such a good idea as the picture deteriorates as it passes through the various stages and you have to wait until the film is processed.

Another way, if the object is small, is to place it on a photocopier tray and photocopy it as it is. This can work for some items but the result is often not that good.

A digital camera, even an inexpensive one, can handle most of these pictures and, of course, the image is digitised from the outset and taken straight from the camera to the computer where it can be correctly sized and uploaded.

Taking the shot

Choose a plain background that shows the article well, often this will be white. This may mean using a sheet of white paper or white faced board but be aware that this can give a very harsh result. An alternative is a white cloth that is completely flat and which will give a less reflective, 'richer' look.

You can also use a plain wall or any other large expanse of a plain, contrasting colour depending on the size of the article.

If it is very large, like a car or boat, then taking it in it's native surroundings may be the best answer. If so, try to take it from an angle that shows it at its best with the least number of other distractions.

If you are photographing indoors, make sure that you light the article well and, if possible, try not to use flash as this can give a harsh light. Flash will also reflect back at the camera if the surface is polished or made from metal.

Digital photos are cheap so never take just one, take a selection using different backgrounds, alternative lighting and object positions so that you can choose the one that looks best.

Remember that any damage or imperfections or features of the article might need a separate photo and, if necessary, learn how to use the 'macro' feature to take a close up. On most cameras this is easy and can give a satisfying result but try to take a selection to allow you to choose the best.

To improve your chances of taking the best picture, spend a little time looking at the photographs other people have taken and try to find one that you think is good and then emulate it.

Once you have the picture

A lot can be done by using photo manipulation software to show off items to their best so it is worth learning how to do this. Your camera may well come with some basic photo editing software that will help you. It is a complex subject so be sure to read the help file.

You then need to crop or resize the photo, save it as a JPEG and it is ready to be uploaded. All auction sites have a section where they give you information on the recommenced size and type of picture to use and instructions on how to upload.

Finally, if you photographed a small object and enjoyed doing it, be aware that there is a branch of photography that specialises in taking photos of small objects at close range which is both challenging and fun to do.

 

The site has a friendly and clean user interface that is easy to navigate. Users can upload photos or videos and write notes, as well as comment on their friends' content. They can add or remove friends and join user groups on a variety of topics. There are many fun applications to choose from and interesting groups to join.

Users over the age of sixteen can generally take care of themselves within the online community. Although abuse isn't too much of a problem, facebook offers a "report" link if a user runs into indecent material or receives insulting or offensive messages from another user. Users in their late teens or older can distinguish between which applications are suitable for them, and which aren't.

The site states that to be eligible to join the Facebook society, one must be older than thirteen years. Although the site does not allow pornographic pictures, there are some groups, applications and quizzes that don't seem suitable for younger members of the site, containing sexual, promiscuous content and obscene language.

It seems Facebook doesn't have many options in order to control either this material or the age of the site's users.

If the site bumps up the age restriction to sixteen, underage users will just lie about their age. Asking mature users to provide proof of their age in order to view this material is unethical; as such documents are private and should be protected. Banning elicit content from the site will create a public outcry, as little of it is actually pornographic in nature and therefore shouldn't be offensive to other adults.

It seems again, responsibility now falls to the parent. But what is a parent to do? Hack into their child's account and block all of the applications that are sexually oriented? This would be an invasion of the child's privacy and just downright rude.

Should a parent block Facebook ?

Facebook allows people to express themselves, to make new friends and to have discussions with others all around the world. Blocking facebook would be like telling your kid to not talk to anyone at school.

The only solution that seems viable is that the creators of facebook build a firewall that is free to download and easy to put in place, to block any applications, groups and quizzes that may be unsuitable to younger members.

The crude content would not be visible to younger members, and searches would not result in anything showing up for those who have the firewall in place. It may even gain popularity among adults who are not interested in stumbling upon or being invited to groups and applications that contain naughty material.

It's a new world, folks. Youngsters of the 21st century have a virtual universe of x-rated content right at their fingertips. If we keep heading in the direction we're going now, we're going to end up with five-year-olds cussing each other and swopping porn.
