    EDISON'S PHONOGRAPH
    November 21, 1877 - New York City, U.S.A.

    Thomas Edison announced his invention of his "talking machine" - the tin-foil cylinder recorder that preceeded the phonograph. He appears to have envisioned it as a business dictation machine. In Sep 1877, he wrote that its purpose was "to record automatically the speech of a very rapid speaker upon paper; from which he reproduces the same Speech immediately or years afterwards preserving the characteristics of the speakers voice so that persons familiar with it would at once recognize it." The indented tin foil, however, would survive only a few playings. By the first public showing of a phonograph, which took place in New York City in early Feb 1878, its practical applications had not yet been realized.

    WIRELESS TELEPHONE AT WHITE HOUSE
    November 21, 1919 - White House, U.S.A.

    President Wilson used a radio telephone set up on the south portico of the White House to direct the maneuvers of a dozen army airplanes flying over the Potomac river several miles away. His telephoned directions went direct to the flight commander in the air. The instrument was similar to those used by American aviators in France in the latter part of World War I. Col. C. C. Culver actively developed the equipment. He began the project in Aug 1910. No new invention was needed, only adaptation and adjustment of existing techniques. By Aug 1916, he was able to send a radio telegraph signal from a plane. Enlisting expert help from the telephone companies, by Oct 1917, voice messages could be send between a plane and the ground. The system was put into service for military wartime use.

    about Eyesight Myth and Fact

    Myth: Staring at a computer screen all day is harmful to the eyes. Fact: Spending the day staring at a screen can tire or strain your eyes, but it will not hurt them. Make sure lighting doesn't create a glare on your screen. When spending long periods at your keyboard, take a break now and then to rest your eyes to reduce fatigue. Also, don't forget to blink. Your eyes need to stay lubricated to feel comfortable. More vehicles

    More vehicles are stolen on New Year's Day than any other holiday throughout the year. (So does that mean thieves are having their last fling before changing their ways or are they trying for a big score to start the New Year?)

The copywriting should provide content that steers search engine visitor to your site. Once at your site, these visitors should be persuaded to click on your "buy now" button. A strong emotion should be built, in the visitor, so that they are happy making the purchase and are ready to buy any up sell that is presented.

Content Writing

A search engine marketing agency must be able to write good content. This content may be for articles, newsletters, or short pdf e-books. It is writing that visitors enjoy reading and talks to their needs or problems. It's writing that keeps visitor staying at your website long enough to stir their interest in buying your product.

Keyword Building

The search engine marketing agency's main purpose is to get you plenty of traffic and to help you convert that traffic into customers. This is done by getting your site to rank on the first pages of Google, Yahoo, and MSN. How is this done? You do this by concentrating on certain keywords. You will not be able to rank on first page for all of the keywords that exist for your product or service.

How do you get on the first pages of the search engines? You do this by targeting keywords that relate to your product or service. You choose 2 or 3 keywords for one of your web pages and have the SEO firm optimize your pages. You have to create web pages for the different keywords you want to rank for.
