03 Dec 09 How to Know That You Need More RAM
The price of RAM has significantly gone down, which makes many people go for more RAM in their system. Moreover, they do it even without thinking if they actually need more RAM in their system. The truth is not many of us know how much RAM they need, therefore, I thought of writing this brief guide to tell you how much RAM do you need in your system.
What will happen if I upgrade RAM?
Well, if you are hoping to change your world by increasing the amount of RAM your system has then I am sorry to break the bad news, it is not going to happen. No matter how much RAM you put in ( I am talking here in GBs, may be more than 4), your application will be only so much faster.
- More RAM helps in multi-tasking, particularly if you are using memory-hogs like Photoshop, Outlook, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Premiere, Adobe Aftereffect, 3D Max, or Firefox with too many tabs.
- If you have more memory, you can more swiftly switch open the open applications without sacrificing the speed.
- Increasing RAM will not make any “one application” faster; rather it will help you do more things at once. You can have more memory-hogging application open at one time, if you get 8GB of RAM instead of 4GB.
- More RAM will affect the performance of image editing software, video editing and special effect software, virtual machine, etc.
How much RAM do you need?
This depends upon your PC usage pattern. If you barely use your PC, or open just one application at one time, and you are running 32-bit Windows 7 then 2GB RAM will do, and if you are still running Windows XP then for you 1GB is sufficient (please no question on Vista, I hate that bugger). But, if you are a power user, and run many applications simultaneously, and keep 70-80 tabs open across your browsers (for me it runs sometimes in 100 across all 5 browsers that I keep open all time, and yes it does not include Internet explorer) then you will need 3 to 4GB of RAM.
I recommend having 3GB at least for average user and 6GB for power users if you are using 64-bit operating system (OS). In case, you are using 32-bit version of Windows (XP, 7 or even vista) then do not bother having more than 4GB RAM, your OS will not recognize it.

13 Nov 09 How Idiot Joe Built a Huge List of Opt-in E-mails – II
In the previous post, we saw the 5 basic strategies Idiot Joe employed to build his gigantic list of opt-in e-mail. We will see some more strategies that Idiot Joe used to get where he is right now. As said, Idiot Joe is an utter idiot, who knows very little about online marketing and related stuffs. But he still managed to build his mammoth list of e-mail subscribers. I am sharing with you the strategies he used to build his list.
- Idiot Joe instinctively knew that networking matters a great deal in online success. Hence, he built a network of power online marketer, and cross promoted each other’s products.
- Idiot Joe took a clever decision of putting his URL, and a “Call to action” line at the back of his business cards, and at the bottom of his letterhead. He knew that if he can tap people in the offline world then he will succeed in tapping them in online world as well. Many people who got Idiot Joe’s business card went online to subscribe to his news letter.
- Idiot Joe also enlisted his friends and family, and requested them to talk about his e-mail newsletter with anyone they knew. This activity fetched a lot of e-mail addresses for his opt-in list.
- Idiot Joe instinctively understood the power of promotions in pulling e-mail addresses for his list. He used it successfully to get visitors give away their e-mails to Idiot Joe.
Idiot Joe used his common sense to build his list of opt-in e-mails. He may not be aware of the marketing tricks, but he was quite aware of how human being things and work. This knowledge worked in his favor and gave him a huge list of e-mails. Idiot Joe, after all, was never an idiot.

30 Aug 09 SEO SIMPLIFIED: Web Rank Primer
Web Rank? I know not many people know about it, as not many people use Yahoo. Web Rank is Yahoo equivalent of Google’s Page Rank. It performs the same function as performed by Google’s Page Rank.
Web Rank is a number assigned to different web pages by Yahoo. The number assigned can be any natural number between 1 and 10. This number is assigned on the basis of relative importance of the web pages. Like Page Rank, Web Rank is also assigned to individual web pages and not to the website containing them.
If you want to get Yahoo search traffic then you should eye to get higher Web Rank for the intended page. In a layman’s term, Yahoo Web Rank is calculated based on the number and quality of in-bound links to the web page. Ten links from .edu will get you better Web Rank than 100 links from generic websites.
