6 Options for Funding Your Small Business - By: seomul Evans

One of the most burning questions entrepreneurs ask is how to go about funding their new businesses. Fortunately, there are as many answers to the question as there are businesses. This is a two-edged sword, however. While there are plenty of ways to fund a new business, the options can be overwhelming. As you ponder how you might go about funding your business, consider these 6 options:

1. Investments and Savings. This is the most logical place to start when finding business funding. If you are serious about starting your own business, then you should be willing to put your money where your dreams are. The advantage of financing your own endeavors is that you are not beholden to anyone if your business goes under. The disadvantage, of course, is that you can completely wipe out your savings if your business fails. So consider what percentage of your assets you are willing to liquidate for the sake of the business.

2. Family and Friends. This is a good option for many business owners, but consider it seriously before you start asking your own friends and family for money. Borrowing money from people with whom you are close can be risky business as it can cause lots of tension. Even if they tell you that they don not expect you to pay them back, the issue will always be the elephant in the room.

3. Second Mortgage. One option for raising money is to use the equity in your own home. This carries a lot of risk, however. The disadvantage is that the money will have to be paid back whether or not your business is a success. But the advantage is that the interest might be tax deductible on this low-interest source of funds.
4. Credit Cards. This is a very risky option, but one that many business owners opt for anyway. It is easy to get a line of credit, and many credit card companies will be willing to let you charge great amounts. The interest rates are high, though, and you could end up with hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt if your business fails.

5. Angels. These are individuals who invest in start-up businesses in exchange for part ownership. Angels usually provide the seed money and are typically a business s first formal investors. Be aware up front that some investors will simply give you the money and leave well enough alone. Others, however, will expect you to gladly accept whatever help or guidance they would like to give you, so be clear from the very beginning what the role of the angel investor will be in your business.

6. Venture Capital. Venture capitalists are essentially more aggressive angel investors with much higher expectations. While angel investors will often write you a check and hand it to you with a smile, venture capitalists will write you a check and hand it to you along with an enormous pile of legal documents. They will expect to give a great deal of input, and they will probably be quite unhappy if your business is not run the way they feel it should be run. Instead of giving help and guidance, they will often give ultimatums and demands.

If you are seriously considering using a venture capitalist, choose wisely. Don not jump at the first offer you receive. If your business idea is good enough for one capitalist to be interested, it will interest others as well.

Regardless of how to choose to finance your business, spend your money wisely and follow a specific plan of spending and paying back. Consider your options carefully and choose the one that will allow you to get the job down while retaining the amount of control you are most comfortable with. In the end, the less you have to borrow, the more you will own.

Is It Time To Buy A New Computer? - By: Piter Gursky

With the Internet and computer technology developing every single day, you might want to give your old computer a long break it badly needs. Computer has gone a long way from being just a mere typing machine.

If you want to know whether you need to box-up your old computer or buy a new one, here's a quick checklist:

Operating system
Run only in Windows 95/98 (or older operating systems!)
Old operating systems won't allow you to add on scanners, printers, or dig cams. It also won't allow you to run newer programs.

Updated RAM
If your computer takes forever to load up, chances you need to add more RAM. Some old RAM chips might not be available in the market anymore and they don't come cheap too.

Small hard disk space
Isn't it frustrating when you come to the point that you have to delete older files to make space for your new ones? This clearly states that you badly need a new hard disk. The market now offers as much as 500 GB for personal computers.

Software doesn't run
If new software doesn't work on your computer, then it is no longer compatible with new programs in the market, and you absolutely need to change your system.

Slow processors
If you are doing some graphic works on your computer, then it suddenly bogs down, then you are in trouble. Older computers don't even come close to opening website with large graphics.

If you find yourself in the above situation, then it's high-time that you buy a new computer. Below are some quick tips that can do you a lot of help:

Tips in Buying Computers

The first thing you need to ask when buying a computer is "what would it be used for?" If you just need to type up writing assignments or do some office works, then a computer with a decent word processing program would go.

If you were using the Internet often, then you would need a computer with 128 MB of memory and at least Pentium-2 processor.

If you do some graphics, edit pictures or create videos, aside from higher RAM and larger space, you need a good video card to view your work as actual as it can be. Also check the compatibility of other devices like scanners and printers to your computer.

If you are decided to buy a new computer, then allot at least $500 of your budget. If you want a high-end computer then it definitely costs a lot more than that. Don't think that you get the best deals when you buy a computer on a cheap price. Always go for quality, it's a total headache if your computer acts up in the middle of your work.

When buying a new computer, think properly what you need before heading to a computer shop. It is also a good thing to have a chit-chat with a computer salesperson. Ask them all the things you want to know. With enough patience, the right computer for you is just one decision away

Building Online: How Architects Use Extranets For Online Collaboration - By: Rick Mosenkis

Traditionally, architects are a conservative bunch who fiercely guards "company secrets." As a result, the idea of using an extranet to share documents and collaborate with others has been totally alien.

But tradition is rapidly changing. Increasingly, architectural firms are using extranets to share documents in a secure environment. Why? Because projects move faster, clients are happier, and everything – from schedules and budgets to CAD drawings and renderings -- is more accessible.

An extranet allows engineers and construction companies to immediately access all pertinent information about a project. It eliminates the frustration of waiting until the architect decides to share his plans.

Client relationships are enhanced through the faster and easier access to the vast volume of documents. Approvals are made more quickly, and the client has the comfort of knowing that they can review anything, at anytime.

What is an Extranet?

An extranet provides a secure workspace for clients, vendors and business partners. It is an area where all the pertinent information for a project can be made available to all of the parties involved in the project.

Studies show that almost 50% of architectural firms have used an extranet. Some firms have resisted using the tool due to the high cost of implementation and maintenance. It is true that the cost of setting up an in-house extranet can be expensive. It requires the purchase of equipment and software, and hiring or training personnel to setup and maintain the system.

However, hosted extranets have become a popular alternative to in-house solutions. They can be purchased for a monthly fee from an application service provider. This approach eliminates the need for hardware and software, and requires no internal staff to maintain the system. In fact, most hosting companies provide training for your staff.

Today, as people become more accustomed to doing most of their business over the internet, clients are requiring that architectural firms use extranet technology. The good news is that extranets have become affordable. More importantly, they make the complex task of collaboration more efficient, enhancing the relationships with clients and partners, and accelerating project completion.

It's 12 Noon, Do You Know Who's Using Your Network? - By: Jason Frovich

The idea of reading email while lounging by the pool, text or instant messaging while doing the laundry, or lounging in the Jacuzzi listening to your MP3 collection is appealing to us all.

Unfortunately, many, or even most, wireless units don't come with security features already functioning. This may not seem like a big issue to someone who is simply setting up a home network, but there are a number of potential problems you should consider.

The most serious problem is the increase in identity theft. If your network is unsecured, the personal data on your wireless electronic equipment is also unsecured. The order you just placed for a book at Amazon may have given your contact and payment information to an unscrupulous hacker!

Nearly every town in which "WiFi" is common will have "War Drivers" and "War Chalkers" at work. These are people who walk or drive around town with wireless equipment, searching for unsecured networks. The "Chalkers" then live up their name, marking curbs and other public items with chalk so that others can more easily find and exploit your network.

Not all "War Drivers" are hackers, of course. Many just want to use your network for free, but the risk is high if you don't learn how to protect yourself. You can usually find quite a bit of free information as to how to secure your network at the website of your router's manufacturer, or by doing a search in a search engine for a phrase like "secure home wireless."

Beyond the truly malicious, there are also your neighbors who may find your network by accident and enjoy nosing into your activities and using your Internet access at will, slowing down your network speed in the process.

Even many businesses use cheap, home-use quality equipment for their company networks. With the poor security often found on small business networks, anyone with a basic knowledge of wireless can access sensitive company and customer data.

If you are unable to secure your network yourself, there are many service companies who will do it for you. A search of your local yellow pages or an inquiry at your neighborhood computer store should yield professional help and get your private data private again

Lately, there has been a rage for AC/DC tickets. These tickets are sold out very quickly.

You can still purchase the tickets even to the sold-out AC/DC concerts. The tickets are now available online. But, make sure that the website you are purchasing the tickets from belong to an authorized online broker.

About The Band

AC/DC are an Australian rock band. Every time, they perform in a concert, the AC/DC tickets sell like hot cakes. The band was formed by two brothers Angus Young and Malcolm in Sydney in 1973. The band has always classified their music as “rock n roll”, but they are considered pioneers of heavy metal and their music is commonly classified as ‘hard rock’. Their first album was “High Voltage” that was released in the year 1975. However, their highly successful album came later in 1979 when they recorded “Highway to Hell”. “Back in Black” has been their best-selling album so far. The band has released their most recent album called “Black Ice” on 20 October 2008.

The current members of the band include Phil Rudd, Cliff Williams, Malcolm Young, Angus Young, and Brian Johnson. So far, the AC/DC band has sold 71 million albums in the United States and over two hundred million albums worldwide. “Back in Black” has been the 5th highest-selling album in the United States of America, where the band sold 22 million units.

The concert gathered an audience of around half a million. The concert was held with an objective to create awareness about the effects of a 2003 SARS epidemic. The concert made a record, as it has still been the largest paid music event in North American history.

Songs And Lyrics From Television's Biggest Show - Popular Music From American Idol - By: Bei Maniago1


Fox Television’s American Idol is undeniably television’s biggest show today. It has been the highest rated show for the last seven years, garnering rating that other shows cannot even duplicate. Perhaps this is because the show combines two common interests of people: music and drama. Because of this, American Idol has a very deep talent pool—from Grammy Award winners to Oscar Award recipients. Here’s a look at some of the songs that American Idol made popular over its several years of being on the air. These would include original music and songs and revived songs that have lyrics already engraved in the consciousness of people.

“Because of You,” by Kelly Clarkson

Kelly Clarkson is one of the few American Idol contestants who attained superstar status n the music world. Her list of hits is aplenty, yet nothing encapsulates her achievements better than “Because of You.” Clarkson is one of the songwriters who wrote the lyrics for this song, and the lyrics of “Because of You” are definitely responsible for the success it attained. Note the lyrics of the song, which is not overly complex but perfectly illustrates a whole range of emotions. “Because of you / I never stray too far from the sidewalk / Because of you / I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt / Because of you / I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me / Because of you / I am afraid,” goes the lyrics of this hit song. It may take a while before Clarkson can create music and lyrics as successful as this.

“Alone,” performed by Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood, another successful American Idol alumnus, has written and co-written lyrics for a number of her songs. However, fans of the show will never forget her take on this popular song by the band Heart. The lyrics of this song is typical, reflecting the popular style of the lyrics during the 1980s, when the song was first released. Yet the lyrics of “Alone” and its overall composition are contemporary enough to survive a revival. Many say that Underwood’s defining moment in the song was when she performed this song.

“Home,” by Chris Daughtry

While he didn’t win the competition, Chris Daughtry is already considered as an accomplished musician. In fact, less than a year after his stint in American Idol, he already released a hit song, “Home,” the lyrics of which he wrote. The lyrics of this song has poignant, nostalgic feel, fitting its title and its music. Because of the lyrics (and the quality of the song, of course), it was used as an exit song in one of the American Idol seasons.

“The Time of My Life,” David Cook

The first single of American Idol winners is often met with criticism. David Cook’s “The Time of My Life” is no different. With lyrics such as “I've been waiting for my dreams / To turn into something / I could believe in / And looking for that / Magic rainbow / On the horizon ,” it feels as if it is from a Disney Movie soundtrack. Yet, perhaps because of the song and the lyrics’ appeal, as well as Cook’s popularity, “The Time of My Life” became one of the biggest original songs from the show.
