Online Business Made Easy at Multiply.com

Image
When the financial crisis hit the world in 2007, the effects were felt immediately, as big corporations struggled hard to stay afloat. The crisis' effects were even harder on the smaller businesses, which have no other means of support, unlike that of the larger companies. And if many think that this one is only limited to real word businesses, the online business scene also felt the crisis. Indeed, while online businesses don't often transact physical goods, they do still rely much one the current financial system. Thus, they are still very much prone to the effects of the financial slowdown. And  just like the real world, there are also a lot of small scale businesses here that were greatly affected. Thus, some online businesses are wondering as to how they can still maintain their competitive edge even with only a limited amount of resources. Luckily, there are several ways that one can use in order to maintain their site's edge over other, even with a small budget. From

Reasons why everybody loves MELASON!

This is the first time that I've met; (personally, actually seen them on red carpets when attending movies or mall promotions) last night as they organized a Blogger's Night for the real and reel life partners - Jason Francisco and Melai Cantiveros which will test their charm onscreen for their biggest movie entitled, “The Adventures of Pureza: Queen of the Riles”! Melai and Jason also known as MELASON casts as the major stars in the film. In fact, the Prinsesa ng Masa, Melai, gets the title role no less in what could be the birth of another ace comedienne. And the whole country couldn’t be any happier… As Pura, Melai takes on the comedic role of a bubbly, caring, kind-hearted, very hardworking “dakilang ate” who wants nothing but only the best for her one and only beloved brother, Ulam, and uplift their dismal life. In all her endeavors, Pura’s best friend, Ruben (Jason Francisco), has always been by her side. Pura and Ruben then stumbles into a one-time big time opportuni

[VIDEO] Cardio Boys versus Cherifer Mascot only at 10th Toycon

On the other side of the stage, yes, there were two stages at Toycon wherein panel discussion, games, trivia contests and band performances were held. At the first day of Toycon, Cardio boys showed up on their aerobics costume and performed at the crowd area. Guests were very amazed and entertained. Apparently, the mascot boy named "Cherifer" went up to the stage challenging the Cardio boys. It was a very hilarious Saturday and all of us were burst into laughter. Hey, Cherifer did a lot of stunts. And, he's one of our favorite mascot as of today :) Other performances last Sunday were Moonlight Avery, Evening Tea Time, Himitsu Heiki and a guest local band; Novus Luna.
