The article at the link is all about priorities; which ones certain business men and women put at the top of their agenda when going about doing what they do: http://www.eniginliaison.com/2009/12/17/enigin-this-little-piggy-went-to-market/
And marketing is indeed a big deal. Take my mate Harry The Lad for example. Harry was born and raised on a London market. Now, when I say “Born and raised” I mean literally. Harry’s mother – Theresa is her name, and a fine woman she is – was a market trader and traded right up until she was about to give give birth. Only Harry was anxious to get out and start trading as soon as was physically possible, and decided he wanted to come out during the fish deliveries one morning in 1965… Anyway, it didn’t hurt Harry.
He soon learned about business and took over from his dear old mother. And here’s my point: much as I liked Mrs Harry Senior, she could have a temper on her could Theresa. And this was something that Harry couldn’t have been more different to. Harry, you see, had his own marketing strategy, and it was this: he would go about the market handing out free fish every Monday, to get people in, to show the world that you could get something for free without getting ripped off and getting food poisoning in the process. And it worked.
To this day, Harry wanders the market on a Monday, handing out wet fish to passerby, making people smile. The moral of this story? Wet fish are clearly in demand and being nice is a damn good marketing tool. The key to good marketing – fish based or online or whatever – is finding a way to get people to believe in you. Once you’ve done that then you’re away.

I have been looking to change my phone, at that time an idea stroked into my mind, instead of buying an expensive music phone, I thought I could buy a smart phone I began the internet search for a nice smart phone and the search ended up in the Samsung Galaxy S.

There were a number of good positive response on all the blogs I saw and also bragged a substantial collection of positive reviews from tech magazines. The Samsung Galaxy S has very attractive features, and is comperable with the more popular smart phones. It has an Android OS v2.1 which is totally virus free and very stable. The phone is a Quad-band GSM and tri-band 3G, and has surprisingly good reception. The 3G connections gives lightning fast internet, you can access web anywhere in high-speed.

The screen is an 4 inch 16M-color Super AMOLED capacitive touch screen of WVGA of a 480 x 800 pixel) resolution. The screen is very sensitive, it has Touch Wiz 3.0 UI customization which enables easy touch screen access and there is no fault in the customization. The memory is available up to16 GB in a microSD slot; the phone has a microUSB port for connecting the data cable for sharing files and connecting to the internet. It has a 5 MP Autofocus camera for shooting high quality pictures and shares it online through the phone. There is a 3.5 mm audio jack for connecting custom earphones.

Talking technically, the phone is quite fast because it has a 1GHz Cortex A8 Hummingbird central processing unit, and 512 MB of RAM, meaning its fast as a normal computer and all the applications that is available in a computer are available here in the Samsung Galaxy S.

Hybrid, the term means mixed in a literal sense. Mixing up two or amalgamating two differing elements to form a resulting third element would be called a hybrid formation. If checked through history all hybrid concoctions that mankind has been responsible for creating has been the offshoot of some necessity. The phrase of necessity being the mother of invention holds very true for inventions of hybrid nature by mankind.

Hybrid cars also have been the resulting factor of just such a necessity. With dwindling fuel reserves and rising cost of the same the necessity to find some alternate solution to driving the car came upon mankind.

Even though the first of the hybrid cars came out as early as 1899, and Ferdinand Porsche was the man behind this kind of car, the car was then not as popular in demand as it has now turned to be.

Leading car manufacturers and makers are now coming out with a hybrid model of every gasoline driven car that they make. The difference between a hybrid car and a gasoline driven car is subtle. Both have the engine fuel tank, batteries and a transmission mechanism. However, in case of a hybrid the fuel tank and engine would be smaller in size. This extra space would be taken up by the electric motor and a set of battery that powers the motor.

Effect on pollution is another factor that can be noticed for its absence in case of hybrid cars. Cars running on gasoline alone have been known to be a major cause for emission related pollution. With a mix of electric power running, which is how the car would be driven during substantial period of its running time, the emission and it’s after effects would be reduced to a great extent.

Hybrid cars are where the future of car making and car buying lies. Manufacturers and consumers alike are paying greater attention to this type of car and since 1899 this make of car has indeed come a long way.
