If you are considering any home improvements you may want to think a little harder about you lighting choices. We found this out early on in the selection process that not all lights are created equally. As you look to put your lighting package together you will want to consider price, quality, and the longetivity of the manufacturer. There are makers like Quoizel lighting that have been making quality lighting for many years. The reason that longetivity is a key decision piece is that if you need to replace items you will want to make sure that the company that made the items are still going to be around.

There are many things that we have purchased for our home that have added to the ambiance outside. There are essential pieces of furniture to help make your patio a great living experience. Having the right table, chairs and patio furniture cushions can help make you and your guests feel more comfortable. We recently purchased the fire pit to put out on the patio to roast marshmallows and have some heat during the cooler spring evenings. It is very similar to having an outdoor fireplace but more contained. We opted for the propane version which is great since there are no logs that you have to take care of once you are done. This makes it handy to fire up the pit and have instant warmth and a great place to make smores.

The definition of a pen is explained as a tool that is used for writing with a colorful fluid such as ink. The earliest pens were developed by the Chinese using camel or rat hair in the first BC. The writing surfaces were in need of advancement which is where the Egyptians come in . They were successful in turning Papyrus reed into thin sheets thus accepting fine lines of colored liquid. Much of the writings that are around from those ancient periods are from the pen written on papyrus. Today the pen has changed a little, but most writing instruments are still true to their roots and not much advancement has taken place in the last several years. Many companies use advertising pens as a way to brand their company and create name recognition.

I was visiting my doctor today and could not help but notice all the pharmaceutical pens that were around the office. I guess this is a good thing as we would not have anything to fill out the 5-7 forms that seem to be required every time we need to see the Dr. I am not sure why they keep a file when we fill out the same forms every time. I have already told them I have no allergic reactions to any medications about 50 times. I thank those for the use of their promo pens to help me inform my Dr. that I am non-smoker and the name of my insurance company.

No matter what business you are in the ability to communicate your brand or product through your name and logo is key in order to attract new customers. Your Brand identity is something that will help your customers associate a particular feeling about your company and products. That can have a negative or positive feeling attached. A great example is the Marlboro company after years of branding they changes their whole identity to Altria which is now standing for smoking education and education to the consumer. A companies image is one of the few assets that they have that is hard to place a dollar figure around. Many companies spend thousands of dollars and months of research on coming up withe logo and tag line. This can be cost prohibitive for many start-ups and small online businesses.

So having resources to help with your logo design can be huge cost savings feature. We had a chance to try out one such company at logoeyes.com and experience was very favorable. As you can see we were able to have the logo and color match across the card which will help creating the Brand identity. This was completed in just under 10 minutes and the process allows you to go back and change the graphics and colors on the fly. They have hundreds of options that you can choose from to help you build your logo that are based on industry categories.

The latest gadgets for your car appear to be the GPS devices to help you navigate the local roads. There are are many different variations that you can choose from such as voice directed, color, and black and white. This is contrast to just a few years ago when you had to break out the pocket magnifiers to read the fine lines of the street maps that you had stuffed in the glove box. As these navigational units become more cost effective you had to think that maps will become a thing of the past. Besides I could not never get it folded back into it’s original form leaving me with a mess.

We recently had the chance to join a new upstart social networking site called Online Prototype Community of Tomorrow or opcot.com for short. They are in the beta test phase now and will be in full swing in May. You can sign up for free now and get in early to set up your name and user groups. What drew us to this site is that have proposed a revenue sharing model that is very intriguing. I have listed the terms below directly from the owners blog so that I do not incorrectly report anything. Now there are several of the revenue sharing sites that are out there and I have ventured into a few of them with little excitement. The reason is that half the people that you find on most of these sites are trying to sell you there affiliate program by becoming your friend. Adam who is the owner will be in full launch in May and this could jump out in front of some of the more current online social network sites that are springing up.

Revenue Sharing from OPCOT.com

We give back 85% of our ad revenue to the community and our partners.

Our revenue sharing is in the form of a monthly lottery, and will be broken down as follows:

One (1) Grand Prize. Consisting of at least 50% of the company’s (OPCOT) ad revenue profits for the given month will be given to a random eligible user.

Two (2) Second Prizes: Consisting of at least 10% each of the company’s (OPCOT) ad revenue profits for the given month will be given to 2 random eligible users who are in the grand prize winners friends list. (if the grand prize winners friends list consists of less then 2 eligible users, another random eligible user will be selected for the prize)

Ten (10) Third Place Prizes: Consisting of at least 1% each of the company’s (OPCOT) ad revenue profits for the given month will be given to random eligible users who is in either the grand prize, or second prize winner’s friends list. (if the friends lists of both the grand prize winner, and 2 second prize winners total less then 10 eligible users, then other eligible members will be randomly selected for the prize)

To be eligible for the OPCOT revenue sharing lottery a user must

• Be at least 13 years of age.
• Have generated at least 1,000 total lifetime views to their profile, blog, and media pages.
• Have generated at least 30 total views during the given month to their profile, blog, and media pages.
• the users account must be in good standing with OPCOT’s term’s and conditions.
• and you must not be an employee of OPCOT.

See, pretty simple. Every year 159 members will win, and 12 of them will win the grand prize, why not you?

For example: If the monthly ad revenue profit for the OPCOT site is $1,000,000 then the prizes would be broken down as follows:

1 Grand Prize of at least $500,000

2 Second Prizes of at least $100,000
