Telephone Systems for Small Business
Telephone Systems for Small Business Multiple Lines
Essential to growing revenue are telephone systems for small business. Communication can not be over rated and in a business with several hundred employees it can be challenge to meet the demand for adding phone numbers or changing numbers to new office spaces. Having the right telephone systems for small business can make all the difference in the world for day to day operation and major restructuring projects. Currently the systems no longer take a special switching room and many pieces of unique equipment. Instead telephone systems for small business are operated by a computer system and some simple wiring and basic switchboard. This means that is someone is given a promotion but is going to keep the same extension, they can change their office and the communications director can make the changes to the telephone systems for small business without ever leaving his desk.
Telephone Systems for Small Business Single Line
Many very small businesses can manage with a single phone line alongside of their cell phones. There are still some demands that call for telephone systems for small business because a single line into the building does not work. As a small business owner with a single telephone line I tried a phone from a retailer with a answering machine, but then I found that even with a single line there were telephone systems for small business that were able to direct calls to specific voicemail boxes and distribute them via email to the perspective recipients.

Google Announces Plus One
Google announced the new addition of the “Plus 1″ (+1) button for websites. This is naturally a response to the information that facebook is able to collect by having websites add a “Like” button. Google offers a very simple and clean button for webmasters that will allow Google to give webmasters higher search engine ranking for many “plus ones” and gives them vast amounts of consumer preferences.
Coding of the +1 buttom is very simple with 2 lines of code to add to your website. There is a very simple line that goes in the header portion of your website and then a corresponding section of code that goes in the location where you wish the button to appear.

So for every webmaster there is now the project of adding some simple code to each site and possibly even each page that warrants the attention Google is willing to give.
Steve Jobs dies
Steve Jobs Dead at 56
APPLE Anounces that Steve Jobs is dead
Steve Jobs the founder and former CEO of APPLE died on October 5 2011. He was born on February 24 1955. He and his partners sold their first computer in the late 1970s while Steve Jobs was still in his early 20s.
Steve Jobs and health and his resignation
He had just resigned from his post as CEO of Apple in September of 2011. At the time he stepped down from his CEO position, he said that the company had out grown his capacity to lead and need someone else. This seemed a shock in light of his ability to shape the world of computing for 3 decades. Even his most fierce competitor Bill Gates acknowledged that without Steve Jobs the current look of computing would not in any way resemble what we have. The health issues surely played a role in the decision of APPLE to proceed with a new CEO knowing that Steve Jobs would not be physically able to lead the company.
The world of technology and the APPLE family will all miss the leadership and creativity of Steve Jobs.
Multimap and Geocoding
Multimap users are a unique group of programmers who speak their own language and are behind the scenes using multimap to create many of the entertaining and informing programs that we all love and appreciate. Above is a clip of a simulated farming video using multimap. Multimap uses one key to return multiple values. That seems abstract for someone with no experience programming mp. One way to illustrate multimap is to think about an online questionaire that has a question where you are allowed to select more than a single answer. The programming behind that is multimap. However that is an oversimplified explanatioin for multimap. It is far more complex in its process and it has a vast number of application for programmers in a variety of different environments. All of these aspects allow you to route data through a virtual or actual map to move the user or the information to the appropriate step or location as established in the multimap programming. Another example of a multimap would be an e-book or online book that has an index. In the index you will find a list of topics or keywords that are contained within the book. If a topic or word is contained in multiple pages, chapters or sections, the pages will be listed and that is a multimap in that you can click to go to any of the various locations to find the use of that topic or word. Thereby being multimap(ped) multimapped throughout the book. At first blush the name seems to point us to a single application of multimap and that is geocoding (geo-coding)> Geocoding allows you to find a specific address using the exact lattitude and exact longitude. Currently geocoding in multimap allows you to point up to twenty addresses in a single map application in Great Britian. You can set the criteria using city or town, zip code, state, or a variety of other address parameters. Unfortunately Multimap Open API is discontinued as of November of 2011 and the multimap api key registration has also been discontinued. For continuing information you could check the multimap site.

Make your own website
There are several steps to make your own website. This first post will be an introduction and overview of the steps and then we will come back and fill in the information to give you move complete directions on how to make your own website.
How to Make Your Own Website
Register Your Domain
The first step to make your own website is to register your domain. I recommend that you register the domain for your website with godaddy or another established company that focuses on domain registration. Many hosting companies also offer to help you make your own website from start to finish including the domain registration. The problem is that if your hosting company goes out of business or you need to change hosting companies for any reason, it is very difficult to transfer domain registration. If your domain is registered with godaddy you can switch hosting companies very easily and painlessly.
Godaddy offers a tool for helping you to find an available url so that you can choose an available name to make your own website. It is likely that your first choice won’t be available. I recommend against taking some odd extension like a .tv or .info It would be much better to make a longer website name and have a .com
Find a Hosting Company
If you haven’t already found a company to host your website on their servers you need to find a good hosting company with a history of financial stability. We are currently using hostgator because we have several websites and they offer a package for unlimited domains for one annual fee. If you are only going to make your own website once you may find something less expensive. Make sure you compare the options of how much space you can have on the servers, how many email accounts you can have, etc…
Now have godaddy or who ever you registered your domain name with point the domain to your server. You need to have your hosting company’s nameservers NS numbers to enter so that when people enter your domain name in a search the internet can find your website.
Make Your Own Website
Now you are really ready to start to make you own website. I recommend using wordpress. If you have had a blog you may be familiar with wordpress and their tools. It is quite easy to setup your website with the templates and gadgets that word press has available. If you are unfamiliar with wordpress you may need a tutorial on word press or you can find other website templates that you can use to make your own website.
