After I created the twitter category and started suggesting all of you to join twitter, I was getting emails asking is twitter really useful. Those of you who never had any social media experience have many doubts in the power of social media. So therefore I decided to conduct this study to reveal the power of Social Media with Proof to my new users and those who still doubt it. In the past every social media network I tried, I was trying them one by one. I never combined them due to lack of time.

We all know that Google is penalizing websites left and right for buying links, selling links, duplicate content and for numerous other reasons. And while you maybe safe right now, there is no guarantee that you will be in the future. For majority of us, Google is a huge source of traffic to our blogs and websites, so what will you do if Google penalizes you? We are not all like a web celebrity like John Chow who can still continue to make $40,000 with his blog even after the google penalty. But here is what I can tell you though.

One of my New Year’s Resolution for this year is accomplished as I finish the re-design of Uzzz Productions. Wait don’t think that I am very efficient and I finish this resolution in less than two months. This was in my resolution for 2009 also, and we never got around to it.
