Alright. I have been in the Internet Industry for quite some time now. And this is a guest post that will probably get picked up by MyBlogGuest.com(quick shout out to the best networking site that ever did come to be). But there is something that always does intrigue my mind - like - what is the difference between true guest posting and link building? At one point does it cross the line and turn into something that is totally not valuable for the web?

Alright, enough of my indirect disclosure already. Let's get to some solid facts - A top ten list: This one? --- Why does everybody love Aaron Wall's SEOBook Blog? (If you haven't heard of it already and you call yourself an "SEO" well then, welcome to this planet!)

Disclosure: I am not affiliated with Aaron Walls Blog.

If you have been looking forward to getting a new iPhone 5, then think again. Apple made an announcement about the new iPhone 4s yesterday instead. It looks just like the regular iPhone 4 on the outside. The inside is what has changed. Let's see what is new.

One of the most important things that is different about this phone is that it is powered by a A5 processor. That means that it is twice as fast as the previous version. Apple also stated that data speeds will be faster on this phone at 14.4 Mbps for downloading and 5.8 Mbps for uploading. The battery life is a little bit longer than the iPhone too, but standby time is less.

Dreaming of 70’s Design Spirit

Neon orange alongside stark green. Bubbly lilac font on dead-pink walls. Overly stretched lines in contrast with playfully curved Letraset prints. Childlike hippie flowers and strict Saul Bass’ title sequences. Those were the “in” designs during my teen years--the happy days of the good ol’ 1970’s.

Loud and glaring and often gaudy, designs that are reminiscent of the 1970s are not completely gone. Buildings, kiosks, subways and other forms of transportation, structures, posters, ads--all these continue to sport a lot of 70’s-inspired design. If there’s anything that appears to be missing, it’s the SPIRIT. The design spirit that was palpable back in the day seems to have disappeared completely.

When it comes to search engine optimization, most of us want to see results. But we don’t want to be waiting for too long. We want to see results soon!

The problem is that massive leaps in search engine positioning don’t tend to happen in a matter of days. I’m not saying that it’s impossible, but it’s certainly unlikely, that you’ll see a website rising in this way.

Under normal conditions, a site will tend to rise in a gradual manner. There may even be occasions when it slips down the rankings, before making a further upwards movement. This can be frustrating, particularly if you’re relying on the optimization work to generate much-needed income for your business.

Tech Glasses Bring Computers Closer Than Ever

The demand for technology in this day and age is staggering, and it represents one of the largest business sectors on the planet. The drive is always on for greater performance in an ever smaller space, and this development is affecting a whole range of devices, not just the computer. It was only 10 years ago that the webcam, for example, was a bulky device with a 15mm diameter lens that sat on top of your computer like some kind of odd animal. Today, they appear built into everything, and have decreased in size to only a few millimeters, whilst improving in quality. The range of objects that have electronic technology built in is quite wide today, and includes glasses, clothing and even sleeping bags. However, the glasses sector has seen a the most interest out of these areas, as the miniaturization of technology has helped them fit more and more into the lenses and arms of the glasses without compromising the function. Here are some of the most interesting models on the market, as well as a few yet to make it:

The company has just been acquired by Wal-mart and the employees will soon be part of the retail giant's Silicon Valley operation, known as WalmartLabs.
