Hybrid Cars - the cars for the future

2006-01-16T01:57:00.000Z

Hybrid Cars are coming back strongly. Car manufacturers are increasingly seeing the commercial sense in great hybrid cars and none wants to be left out. The escalating price of gasoline ironically fuelled by tensions in major crude oil producing regions of the world is pushing recent developments and interests in hybrid cars. If this trend continues and there is no reason to think otherwise, drivers will eventually have a viable alternative to conventional cars.

Galileo Satellite Navigation - The impact on drivers

Galileo Satellite Navigation Project

The European Union (EU) has launched the first in a series of satellites that will make up the EU Galileo satellite navigation system aimed at reducing EU reliance on the American satellite Gblobal Navigation System. The EU has long been wary of the American global navigation system which the world has come to rely on. The main concern was that the American system, which was designed primarily for the American military can be degraded in times of war and can also be turned off without warning. The American President, George Bush has said that the American GPS satellites could be disabled during national crisis to prevent terrorist from accessing the system.

The first of the EU Galileo test satellites named Giove A is claimed to be equipped with the most advanced atomic clock. A series of test is planned with signals from the satellite over the next 2 years and this will be followed by the launch of another test satellite named Giove B. Giove B will be followed with the launch of a total of 30 satellites that will form the operational Galileo satellite navigation system. The system is planned to begin commercial operation by 2008.

Christmas has been fantastic

2005-12-25T23:20:00.000Z

This year Christmas has really been fantastic. It has been a family affair for me and I honestly enjoyed it. I went to the mid day mass in our local church with the family and immediately after that, drove straight to my elder brother's house where we spent the rest of the Christmas day. There was presents for everyone and the food and drink was good. The kids had a great time playing together. I look forward to a more prosperous 2006. I will continue to develop my driving project and gauge how popular this becomes with car drivers.

Thesmartdriver.com will save you money if you are ever caught with any traffic offence. Be sure to find out what smart driving are doing by visiting thesmartdriver.com before you pay any traffic fines in future.

First Google Adwords Sale !

2005-04-15T15:14:00.000+01:00

I have been able to make my first sale with Google Adwords after 12 unsuccessful campaigns. I finally found a product that sells one a day on the average with about 4% CRT, and as at now 200% ROI. I have applied measure I learnt from VincentRich on this campaign which is, "Monitor, Measure and Twick" and this has really improved my stats on this campaign. It is not a product with mass appeal and sells only in one country. I have tried to sell similar product in the USA but found that I am outrageously outbided on keywords that are working for me. I am still searching for the next product that will make regular sales. My target at the end of the year is a ROI of $1500. I am running at about $300 right now and I need to find extra time to test more campiagns since apart from montoring running campaigns, I have been creating and testing new campaigns mostly on weekends.

Enjoy
