The Social Network aka Facebook The Movie: Watch The Trailer Here

In the 1990s, it was Sandra Bullock running away from falling dead bodies while trying to regain back her identity in the movie The Net.

More than 10 years later (after the dot com crash and the rise of Google)comes - The Social Network also known as Facebook the movie is set for release anytime this year (or maybe early next year).

Watch the teaser trailer here:


(video from Mashable.com)

According Mashable.com's latest update:

"The Social Network, otherwise known as “the Facebook (Facebook) movie,” is based in part on the book The Accidental Billionaires. It chronicles the formative days of Facebook, from its founding in Mark Zuckerberg’s Harvard dorm room through its early rise to success. Written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by David Fincher, the film stars Jesse Eisenberg as Zuckerberg. It hits theaters this October.

The tag line for the film, “You can’t make 500 million friends without making a few enemies” seems to sum up some of those early days, and the film (or at least the version of the script that I read) is as much an exploration of young people coming to terms with creating something bigger than themselves as much as it is about loyalty, jealousy and money." (check the entire article here: http://mashable.com/2010/06/25/social-network-teaser-trailer/)


Well, sounds like an intriguing-tech-rock star story to me. Of course, I will reserve all comments on the movie until I see it but so far, nothing else could create quite a buzz in Facebook than -- well, Facebook.

iPhone 4 Antenna Pisses Off Hitler

The iPhone 4 has been creating a lot of buzz lately among technophiles and many excited consumers. However, one famous (or infamous) user has been quite open with his dislike for the new phone.

In this video, let the Fuhrer himself, Hitler show you what he thinks of Apple's latest iPhone release. This is another parody of that excellent film, The Downfall (which has spawned a whole truck load of spoofs ranging from the financial crises to Paris Hilton). Film credits go to Michael Ingram Jr. as posted in Techcrunch.com.

Enjoy!

Why Should Only The Big Boys (Business) Have All The Fun?

If you're just starting your business or already running or managing a new company, you have probably often feel like David facing not just one probably dozens Goliaths eagerly waiting to swallow up any new upstarts.

Sure, you may have prepared well for this encounter:

- You have a killer product or service
- You have done you research & homework
- You identified the right market who seems very positive to receive your product
- You have the guts, passion and discipline to reach your goal

But you & I know, in business...it's never going to be a walk in the park
Your competitors are ready to take on you & your company to the cleaners.

They have more manpower, firepower & resources than you.

So how do you rise up to the challenge? Why should your competitors have all the fun?

Like our biblical hero David, you need a silent but powerful partner such as the 1 Business System.

1 Business levels the playing field between you and your competitors. It incorporates all the vital elements you need to establish a full online business without costly disparate tools, a large & expensive staff & long learning curve.

 1 Business is a quick, easy & reliable way for you to:

* Build a powerful business website
* Sell Anything Online, from physical products to downloads

* Communicate & Build Your Brand Image and many more...

All these without needing to learn programming or web coding.

1 Business is designed to take care of the technology side of your business so that you can focus on what you do best: growing your business.
 
Most of your competitors probably had a head start & accumulated a lot resources & networks than you
They have an army of staff, sales people with structured departments, lots of cash & an extensive network of contacts.

Their size & budgets alone can be intimidating.

Since your competitor's staff handle tasks such as customer relations, sales & marketing, they have more time to grow their business,  a vital task that you can hardly afford with your limited budget and time.

Until now.

With 1 Business System - you don't need to hire more employees or buy more separate & complicated tools.

This is because the system integrates & automates your vital business activities saving you time and money.

Here's how 1 Business Sytem works...

1 Business System basically provides you an entire online business suite.

Think of it as having different business departments - all automated, working for you around the clock, 24-7.

-You want to create more sales leads & inquiries? Oh yeah!

-Need to record, track and see all your visitor & customer activity? Check!

-Are you selling physical or digital products? Bookings for your services? Got it!

-How about sending targeted emails? Got that too.

-You want to know what's happening to your business asap? No problem

- Assign tasks to your staff & sales people even when they are out of the office? Its got that covered for you. 



All of these functions coordinate with each other something you cannot get when you buy separate ecommerce, crm & even email marketing systems.

Because 1 Business was built from ground up, all of the functions were designed to work with one another from the start.
 

Aside from that, there are so much more you can do with the 1 Business system such as:

• Shipping integration, 

• SEO friendly URLs,

• Multi-currency facilities 

• Payment gateways such as paypal, etc. 

• Create unlimited blogs & forums w

• Web applications / apps 

• Modules such as photo galleries, Press releases, the list goes on.

And here's the best thing of all...it's so easy to use: 

* Posting updates such as text, pictures & videos on your site is as easy as using a word processor

* Creating Web Forms, Web Apps, Modules and other cool stuff is easily done with just a few drag & drop actions.

You don't need any coding or programming skill at all.

Think about that...

A system that gives you all the tools your larger competitors are using but only:

- it's more powerful
- it's integrated (all systems 'talk' to each other)  
- it's So easy to use

Correctly & effectively managed, 1 Business System helps make your business playing field so uneven & lopsided - all in your favor.

After all, if you can employ far superior capabilities than your rivals at a fraction of their overheads, manpower & size...your business will emerge far more profitable.

So take it from our hero David, it's not the size & bulk that matters, it's all having the right business elements & a silent yet powerful partner to take on the giants.

And oh, I almost forgot...you can try the system out for 30 days absolutely free. Yes, free with no strings attached. No credit cards, no contracts. You can even create several trial sites if you want.
