I was reading this article about Google’s Orkut on Wikipedia and I found some really interesting fact there.

Well, orkut was build looking at the American Market but it is most popular in Brazil and India.

Orkut has over 50% memebers from Brazil and around 16% members from India. That’s simply: Made for USA and mingled in Brazil and India!

Should you add a DONATE page to your blog?

I have seen many blogs where the author have added a donate page on their blog. Well, I was wondering how much donation these guys get through their DONATE page. Well, of course if you give a wonderful service or product, you are sure to get some donation. I did donate one time for Wikipedia.

So, the question is: Should we add a DONATE page to our blogs?

If I add on my blog, I will hardly get donation because I am not giving out any good service or product away. Of course if my articles are good enough, I’ll get a donation sometimes. What do you feel guys?

Finding the perfect email marketing solution

If you have read my other posts on my email marketing campaigns, you must have read about the problems I faced with my email hosting company. Most of my email newsletters not delivered into my customers’ inbox and my so the response rate was quite low. But I recently found a new email marketing service called iContact and I am really pleased with their service so far. They have extremely reliable inbox deliverability and now, most of email newsletters are directly delivered directly into my customers’ inbox.

The best part about this email marketing solution provided by iContact is that, you can use it for FREE for the first 15 days. Yes, they offer a 15 days free trial and you gonna love them. Moreover, their pricing is also very reasonable as compared to other competitive services available out there. Their pricing starts at $9.95 per month and scales upward based on your email list size. That means if you have a small list, you pay only for it. They have also got other options for bigger uses, like the Enterprise service for larger organizations that starts at $660/month.

Why I personally like iContact is because of their simple to use and navigate interface. If you sing up with them, you will realize this. You will find it very easy to navigate through your control panel and use the different features they provide to their members. They provide many handy tools as well, like the 300+ readymade professional email templates for all kinds of your email marketing and newsletters campaigns. So, if you are looking for a great email marketing solution, this may be it.
