Coupons and deals computers & peripherals

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

You know you have to find coupons and specials when it comes to buying anything electronic. It seems that technology pricing varies greatly depending on what you are willing to buy. Refurbished goods can get you a huge discount. For those of you who are not into refurbished items or the items you need are not sold this way, coupons are one of the better ways to go.

One of the major issues it knowing where to find said bargains. Many places claim to have coupon codes or to be able to find you a better deal, but then they don’t deliver. I have found a place that is consistently updating their codes and I have yet to have a problem with them. You will find a number of electronics coupons right at your finger tips for things like stereos, speakers, and peripherals. There are also plenty of computers and software deals to be had. Whether you are upgrading or getting something for the first time, you will be happy to find that you can keep a few dollars in your pocket. No one said good technology had to cost you an arm and a leg.

Streamline your work flow

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

I am so in need of something like this. I have such issues with wanting to be more organized and trying to find the right solution for it. I was looking into the ProWorkflow organizer which is $15 per month for their basic service. It has everything one would need to make sure they stay on task. You are able to input your jobs, when they are due, what they entail…and you are able to see how long you have been working on different tasks. If there is more than just yourself working, you are able to have a multiuser account.

For ten dollars more per month you can add invoicing for clients, for another ten quotes. They give you 100mb of memory to run your business from to start with. Upgrades are also available for varied fees. The screenshot pretty much says it all. You can see down the left hand side all the ways to categorize your work. The program is easy to read, easy to use, and you can get a free trial to make sure that I am right ;) . Check it out and let me know what you think. I will be keeping an eye on this product to see if they come out with one that I can keep locally on my computer and work with for a one time fee.

Ebay bought StumbleUpon

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

Now what? I wonder what the next step is for Ebay as they relish their new acquisition. They bought it for a whopping $75 million. I use Stumbleupon from time to time, so I am really curious as to what Ebay is going to do with the user based web searching site. I fathom that we will see an insurgence of Ebay ads, Amazon ads, Half.com ads, and a lot of other revenue based content that looks like someone marked it as something they Stumbled. They say that not much will change with the company, but I still have to wonder what they were thinking.

Shopping for a camera? Look at the reviews first

Tuesday, March 6th, 2007

Reading other people’s experiences can help save you a lot of headache and money. The first thing I do when I look for any type of electronic device is to read all the reviews that are out there, then make an informed decision. Specs don’t tell you anything about how the product actually works.

If you are in the market for a digital camera, then you will want to look at Reviews of Digital Cameras first. There are a number of different brands profiled in the website. You can get a first hand look at what is behind the workings of the cameras in your price range and make an informed decision. My new camera is there and I am glad that the review is a good one. My old camera also has a glowing review. Both of them are great cameras so I think the reviewers are spot on.

Happy comparison shopping!

Review: E-junkie Fat Free Cart

Tuesday, January 16th, 2007

If you are an Ebay seller, or have any type of e-business you might be interested in the E-junkie Shopping Cart and Digital Delivery service. It works with pretty much any shopping platform you may already have such as Paypal, Google checkout, and 2 checkout. It’s an all in one, no pop up system that delivers a streamlined cart for your customers.

The system works with tangible and intangible products. You can easily sell from your home or sell from the web. What does this mean? If you want to distribute an e-book across the Internet, you can do it with immediate download available right after the payment is made. You could also have registration codes delivered that quickly, too. It opens a whole new brand to the shop owner. Just think about the vast possibilities. You can offer all kinds of products without the hassle of keeping track of the transactions manually.

The system also calculates shipping rates and taxes with a built in VAT applet. It will even determine shipping based on how many pieces will fit into one box. You can test out the program for free or get a week trial before you buy. Pricing per month is based on the number of products you are selling. Service is as low as $5 a month.
