Typical walkie-talkies resemble a telephone handset, possibly slightly larger but still a single unit, with an antenna sticking out of the top. Where a phone\’s earpiece is only loud enough to be heard by the user, a walkie-talkie\’s built-in speaker can be heard by the user and those in his immediate vicinity. Hand-held transceivers may be used to communicate between each other, or to vehicle-mounted or base stations.

For those of us who grew up before the 1990s may recall that no respectable private eye or detective story was complete without a walkie talkie being used while following a suspect or chasing a criminal!



If you enjoy outdoor activities, enjoy riding your motorbike at weekends, work at a college or school, perhaps you work in a pub, club? Are you at home caring for a child perhaps? if you answered yes to any of the above then you would find a walkie talkie a very useful gadget. You may also need a walkie talkie if you move around a lot in your job. The benefit over mobile phones is that they are license free and do not have any associated call charges.

Some walkie talkies have a wider range than the average baby monitor, if you are at home all the time and the baby is asleep upstairs and you need to visit a neighbour? Walkie talkies have a wider range and suit this situation perfectly, a \”baby monitor\” mode is available for some walkie talkies so you can leave one in the baby\’s room and take the other with you, when the baby wakes or begins to cry you will know at once!

For the workers in the pubs or clubs, or for teachers and staff members in schools would find walkie talkies very effective and useful when communicating with colleagues. For all of these working environments emergencies can happen and resposding to those emergencies could be an issue, unless you had a walkie talkie! You can clip a walktie talkie to your clothing, they are light weight and easily carried about your person.



You can use a walkie talkie while out on youre bike (like Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman did on The Long Way Round) and fit the earpieve into your motorcycle helmet, also available is a Push to Talk button that is mounted on the motorcycle handlebar. The range for these types of Walkie Talkies is over a mile, come rain or shine. The walkie talkie can also compete with the mobile phone market as no roaming applies to a walkie talkie so you can avoid their hefty prices.

From a blogging perspective several factors contribute to a sites success. There’s the number of visits or page views, there’s also the number of comments, then there the number of friends that one is gained, also the earning that he gets from the blogs. But then there’s one factor that many might not know about; those who know it may not even consider it of importance. Ah, but for a few, it makes all the difference.

I’m talking about PageRank, a Google feature that measures the relevancy of ones site. I define PageRank as a calculative measure of a sites’ success and many other bloggers and web publishers consider it to be. A higher PageRank means that your blog is being read by many whereas a virtual can be a source of distaste. Let’s just say a higher PageRank can a source of arrogance from the geeks.

Google computes ones PageRank by adding all the inbound links to ones site weighing the importance of every site. If a site with a Google PageRank of 5 links to you, Google considers this more valuable than say a site that has a PageRank of 1. Overtime, as you increase your PageRank, Google will find your content relevant and you should rank higher in the search engines. This means more readers for you.

The importance of PageRank can also be considered in paid reviews. Paid reviews are services that pays bloggers to write articles in their sites. Two of the more famous paid reviews are Pay Per Post and Review Me, but there are more. As higher rankings mean more readers, advertisers pay much more money to blogs that are classified as relevant. To profit seekers, this could be as good as money. Say from 5 dollars per post to a person who has a pagerank of 0 to a 15 bucks per post to that with a page rank of 2. Those with a PageRank of 6 can earn as much as 100 bucks per post, even more.

The question therefore is, how do you increase your PageRank? While some would pay SEO companies tons of money to list them in directories and get the higher on the search engines, proven ways of improving pageranks is to increase one’s inbound links. There are several strategies that you can apply to make this possible - exchange links, participate in forums, submit articles etc. But to me the best strategy possible is still to make great content. This aside from the fact that it does really take time to increase a sites PageRank. As time passes, it’s an inevitable compliment to your presence in the web
