For people fond of the word : Unique

It’s true that every person’s thinking differs from the rest. In that way some people like to think unique, especially when it comes to owning a company and branding it with a name. People come up different names and finally end up with one, which they think is most relevant to the company’s products. Some are impressive like ADIDAS (All Day I Dream About Sports). I sometimes have a wired idea, how would it be if your company’s name is contradicting to your product. Like

Examples:

An antivirus solution named INFECTED.

A grocery shop named ROTTEN.

A hospital named DISEASE.

A film production company called FLOP. (Oops!)

A transport company called ACCIDENT.

A courier company called EMPTY. (Make sure they get it to destination!)

Airways called TOTAL CRASH. (Think twice before boarding)

A speaker company called MUTE. (Lets listen to music!)

A mobile service provider called NO SIGNAL.


These names grab attention and are proving to be an easy way to make your brand popular in the market. But you must make sure that your product’s quality isn’t a synonym to your brand name. You might lose your customers quicker than the rest, having common names. Don’t forget being unique applies for everything and especially for your quality. Not only these but funky brand names (E.g.: Knoti, Muzic) that bypass the normal English words have also gained an upper hand in achieving popularity. Though these might not attract everyone in the population it has a strong effect on people 20-40 age span. We very well know they make up to more than 60% of the consumers. Anyways its your product ; have it in the way you want, and make it popular.

Marcofolio.net - Worth to visit


Remember the times you ran mad at search engines for not giving right websites on the list.Well one such thing happened to me last week.I was searching in Google for an article related to RSS feeds. I happened to go past a site which had no relation with the matter I was searching for. It had an article about RSS icons and provided a list of ten RSS icons which were looking really cool. I kind of liked the site so I just browsed through it and found many articles interesting. To my surprise I had actually spent more than 3 hours on that site, reading the entries.

Through the weekend, I always had that website in a tab on Firefox and went around telling my friends about the new website I discovered and its contents.
Starting with the site's header which reads "Your only limit is your imagination" and the creativity of the author, there were several other things I found interesting in the site, one of them was the IMAGE DUMP. The author has a wonderful collection of cool and funny pics under that title.So I wanted to post an article about this website, just to make sure my readers are aware of it.
This site has a tab titled useful. Take a good look at that, you may find many articles that stress on things you wouldn't have noticed. And don't forget to visit the Fun part, you might miss the real action. Things like Gmail Cheat sheet and Photoshop tutorials also fall under the must read category.

I Guess thats about enough to tell u how good this site really is.

A smart and peppy media player


Everyone of us use different players/softwares for listening to music. The most popular and the common one is Windows Media Player. I should say music has gained a new dimension after people started using these softwares. Some people listen to music just because they love the player i.e., its looks. True, and thats the reason why players have skins. The second thing why people prefer a particular player is the sound output is good. In that way i would like to make you familiar with yet another player called the QUINTESSENTIAL PLAYER. Exploring on the above mentioned points i found this has satisfied them extraordinarily.
Right from visualisation to very good audio effects quint rocks. Skins like chameleon, speedo, phaseless will give your player a God like look. Its advantage is that it uses lesser RAM compared to other players of its kind.
Though not a familiar one, people like us who use it will never give it up. Here is the link for you to download this free version
