901am Japan launches

January 30, 2023 By Minic Rivera 2 Comments

jp.jpgWe are pleased to announce the launch of 901am.com Japanese version in partnership with Ioix.

This is not a simple case of running 901am through any automatic translation websites. Ioix is humanly translating 901am.com’s important posts into Japanese.

In Technorati’s April 2007 report, Japanese posts accounted for 37% of the posts in blogosphere followed closely by English at 36%.

Welcome to 901am Japan.

No Pandora For You!!

January 27, 2023 By Raj Dash 6 Comments

Pandora music recommendation serviceNo Pandora for you, like Seinfeld’s “Soup Nazi” character might say. At least, not if you are an international user. That supposedly means anyone outside the United States will be prevented from using the service, due to a certain federal statute. This is of course due to net radio royalty issues. Last.fm is apparently being purchased by Viacom. I’ve not heard anything regarding Pandora.

This is very disappointing news as for a long-time music fan like myself, I’ve never come across anything quite as cool/ brilliant in its recommendation functionality. However, despite being in Canada, my IP address sometimes shows as being in the US. This might explain while I can still see the site as of this writing. Oddly, I didn’t receive any email from Pandora, though I have received newsletters in the past.

While it’s true that the most popular social media platforms are doing a great job in helping businesses market their products and services, the webinar system has its own advantage over them. For one, it generates a low cost for every lead and a high level of engagement with target audience. Secondly, it is considered the second most effective method in terms of content marketing and thirdly, it promotes greater satisfaction among students thereby contributing to a higher study success rate.

Webinar vs Podcast

Compared to the podcast, the webinar has an edge in that it allows real time interaction with the attendees. This is efficient in clarifying certain issues clients and potential clients have about a particular product or service. Engagement is also assured in this method of communication. [Read more…]
