We now offer translation services
We have now partnered with ChatGPT, and because of it we are able to offer translation serviced between numerous languages at an affordable rate. This includes most European and Asian languages. Details to come.
Brute Force Attack on WordPress Websites
There has been an attack on wordpress sites everywhere.
For further information see here
We can’t say if this site was affected, but one sister site had a plugin installed to limit the number of login attempts – and there were a lot of attempts. › Continue reading
Are Yellow Pages Dead?
I just received my complimentary yearly edition of the “Real Yellow Pages”. I was shocked how much it shrank in size in just one year. Are we witnessing the demise of the traditional yellow pages? › Continue reading
My Pet is on Facebook
Can your dog or cat type?
Then he/she is probably on Facebook.
Animals can have their personality, they can be smart, and they certainly have skills we humans don’t have.
But unless your pet can actually enter anything meaningful on a computer keyboard, it is not › Continue reading
Facebook removes FBML
On July 5, 2012, Facebook will remove all FBML functionality.
FB has blocked new usage of FBML for quite some time now, but allowed the existing applications (FBML tabs) to function. This will change on 7/5/12.
FBML, as you might recall, was a way to put user contents with user specific looks and layout on facebook pages. The way to do it now is via so-called iframes.
DPWebsoft Consulting can help you transitioning from FBML to iframes. Even if you have not used either of them, we can install applications on facebook pages that work like you have own website, but it shows up under a tab of your facebook page.
Please let us know if we can help you. You can find the contact information in the “Contact Us” tab on top of this page.
Facebook Timeline for Biz pages
At the end of this month Facebook will convert all business pages (aka fan pages) to use the timeline feature.
The timeline page is obviously so important to Facebook, that you cannot land anywhere else when you enter the page.
The option for a default landing page (other than wall) is gone.
QRCodes
Have you ever wondered what this is?
This is a QRCode (“QR” stands for Quick response). If you have a mobile phone (and who doesn’t – really), and you have an app for a QRCode reader (e.g. from Scanlife.com), you can scan it, and your device will load whatever the target of the code is.
You can direct it to websites, including facebook pages. But you can also direct it to load a phone number.
Try it out if you’re curious.
What did we learn from the Doomsday disaster
Now that the Doomsday prediction for 5/21/2011 has not come true, is there a lesson to learn here?
I think BrainTurnedOff has a point here. Even though it got some media attention, trustworthiness comes with a mailing list. You hear it all the time. You got to have a mailing list to be successful to promote your products.

Your Business Problem
Does Online Video Reach the Business Audience?
Have asked yourself whether or not Online Videos reach the business customers?
According to Forbes Insights, business people watched more online videos than a year ago, and generally 60% of all respondents said they would watch video before reading text on the same webpage, and 22% said they generally liked watching video more than reading text for reviewing business information.
Especially among younger executives, likelihood of making a purchase was high.
As you can see, it was executives older than 50 who had not yet gotten on board with video, but the younger ones were interested in video at least to some degree.
