There were times when search engine optimizers were completely against Flash based websites and suggested the webmasters to not have flash based content on their websites. However, after Google made changes in how its bots dealt with flash content, we can be rest assured that we’d see more use of flash in blogs or website designs!
HubSpot has been one of my favorite blogs on Internet Marketing and will always suggest internet marketers and business owners to subscribe to their newsletter or RSS feed. They are experts in internet marketing and I’m happy for the fact that they have launched Inbound Marketing University program.
Does Twitter deserve the kind of coverage it gets on tech blogs? That’s the question Amit Agarwal has posted on his wonderful blog and exactly same question was going through my mind a few days back and I thought of writing something about it too. After looking at that post, I can only say that Amit has given me the opportunity to answer the question slightly quickly. We are seeing literally hundreds of applications, thousands of posts and even more number of tweets about Twitter. That definitely sounds like over dose to me, amit and many of you like us.

You don’t believe me – Check out the number of views of this ad on Youtube, this ad and this ad too.
I know this post is pretty off-topic, however I couldn’t control myself from posting on this blog and thought that it’ll be certainly a nice topic of discussion on Blog Design Studio. Couple of days back, I went to a small trip to Shirdi Temple, Ajanta & Ellora Caves and I was stunned to see the wonderful work of art at both the caves. While, I was busy exploring the beauty of the caves, my not so techie friend started the conversation around WikiPedia and started praising that how WikiPedia is helping the world by giving a platform to share the knowledge with the world for free! Although, being a non-techie he was wondering that how do they run the service when they don’t have any business model around it.
