Good news: I bought a Samsung Galaxy S 2 (I9100)






He's big, but very thin and light. It is much easier my old I900, and certainly easier to metallic Wave II. But the screen is very much a huge.

The back cover is attached to the little plastic tabs in the cover, which should be included in the grooves on the body. As a result, it is easy to open lid - a fingernail, but close it is much more difficult - should take place with your fingers around the edge of the junction of the lid to the body. At the same time constantly ssysh that the cover may break. In general, I would not advise to pull this cover is often.

On the phone is an android version 2. 3. 3. T. e. any possible potryasyvaniya, slopes, etc. when dealing with telephone. With tabom not compare in this respect - there should be more finger dexterity nadrachivat to move icons, or drag and drop anything. In this regard, es2 greatly outperforms its big brother. But at the same time, the screen mode Home does not turn over, always remaining in a vertical orientation. This is strange.

The rest of the android is an android. Market, phone, contacts, mail. Contact us I moved from your old phone for a couple of minutes later Kies. There are in the phone Kies Air, allows you to manage your phone from any computer - this, of course, crap and do not live - do not have any vayfaya: just load the app on the phone, he sticks to the network, and you can manage your phone and its contents after a certain .

This phone is difficult to find fault. It's fast, many can, even the camera had 8mpks.






And behind him a large company with a boundless passion for Samsung dopilivat even good products and make them even better. In general, it is the most anticipated purchase of the year, pending a birthday gift, which is scheduled for the fall, but deferred due to the rapidly falling to normal price.

I recommend. I can not yet advise, though, because he has not tried everything.

Questions entrepreneur in the field of e-commerce.

Boeing will prove hakeroustoychivost new liner


New boingovsky ' fat man ' - the liner 787, recently came to being - before they go into mass production, to go through another series of tests that will address information security, reports AP.





The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requires the Boeing Company to prove that providing Internet access to passengers will not be the reason that some terrorists have penetrated to the board, seize control and demolished a couple of the WTC towers. Lori Gunter (Lori Gunter), a representative of aircraft manufacturers, said that the avionics in any case not connected to the Internet. Navigation, control and other systems are protected from invasion, Gunter said, while refusing to even call about the extent to which management systems and Internet access are separated from each other.





Thus, any connection between them is still there, a fact that a layman can cause a nervous tick and force him to change seats on the Airbus. The latter, incidentally, has already said that the best way to protect yourself from the trouble - a physically separate system, but it is almost impossible to implement. In addition, the FAA presses American Association for the pilots, flight attendants required to provide the ability to block access for passengers, but this is somehow going too far.





However, Boeing is now to prove that its aircraft will behave in the event of fire or other emergency situations, as the 787 - the first liner is made ​​of carbon fiber. A problem associated with the collapse of the project Connexion, and rude passengers, for which we must introduce airborne Internet censorship should be a temporary retreat into the background.

Proper advertising

Today, still roamed the city, noticed a few new posters. Thinking about what today trends in advertising.

Have you noticed that advertising is more to the season, but not when there are no buyers. Now everything is on leave and the number of ads has fallen sharply. Although, it would seem logical to advertise when there is a need - m. e. no sales. An- no. Experiments show that advertising in the offseason is not justified. How many times do not tell ' paste ' in your mouth will not become sweeter. If buyers do not, in principle, it is useless to drum up. But in the season, advertising is not advertising, but a means to fight for market share.

But back to the methods of dominant this season. This is primarily. bonuses. Discounts in the past season, giving way to any garbage on a stick, which you vsuchat ' a gift '. But many advertisers are too lazy to spend money even on garbage, so the bonus is that and so should be included. Today saw a simple outdoor advertising on the shop door:. ' Gift of the summer! . Ahem, how do you handle-less door? . ' when buying a car - the engine for free! '.

Specials are also COX. In the priority of discounts - the battle between mobile operators. Already reached 10 cents per minute. Strangely the other, the connection seems cheaper, and the accounts grow. Although now, thanks to an Internet, I reduced the personal expenses of up to 250 rubles. per month. A year ago I was talking on a cell, on average 2 hours per day and had a bill from 3 to 8 thousand. rub.

The store stocks alcoholic - always a beer at the ridiculous price. Who steers Golden Barrel ( 20R. ) And Staropramen ( 30R. ) Russian spill. Last week, poured in a container Ochakovo 2n 50 rubles. So in fact become an alcoholic and can be. Supermarkets all started as a game with ' folk ' price: one identifies the goods and sells them at low prices. A couple of weeks assrtiment red tabs change. I am particularly pleased that people sometimes get the price even on such goods as Martini. Now is a rack with bubbles liter to 330 rubles. (old price - 550 rubles. ).

If these two methods are fighting among themselves, as Coca- Cola to PepsiCo, is stuck between the niche technology is January 1. Or speaking in Russian, buy two for the price of one. Or five at a price of four. Not the essence, it is important that this is the same discount, only turned inside out. For example, the hilt 8 bottles in a bag. I liked the bag even more than the hilt. Or share yuvelirka 585 for the purchase of two products: an expensive cheap at the price of expensive. Such advertising obvious niche - the additive is usually substantial and do not always need. So at one time was a big noise when stiralka to give even some appliances that customers are not dug well, just did. Not to mention the fact that the addition was low-grade. A plus sign to the total price was still. T. e. For example, stiralka itself 10000, supplement by itself - 500, and together - 10100.

Soon the season. Autumn - time to shop for winter. And then all at once and the New Year. Incidentally, we already have several numbers on the NG in Svetlogorsk. so. contact.

---------------------------.

Malashkin made. new video for Satkha. - Now he shows how to alter a pattern. And he. haircut.

Who was the first to leave a comment, gets guard in the next post, but not two in a row. The campaign will last the whole of August. Pervonahi not considered to be the first comments and removed.

word. SEO. - Comes from the English language and stands. Search Engine Optimization. Which consists in increasing the share of your request, the license the search engine. It is divided into. external. and. internal.
to. foreign. include advertising on your site to the other. Make this a reality you can purchase advertising space on the site or agree with the author about a link exchange: you place a link on the resource site with a person with whom you have agreed to exchange, and he was on his your. People have long been accustomed to advertising on the sites and have not clicked on it, with such interest as before. But many people who go to the link for example: ' Please note, there is information of interest to you '. Searcher can not determine whether your site is what some useful information or is it just a source of income where there is no information at all.
Search engines are guided by the number of sites that link to your site, it determines your position in the search engine. When you request information from the search engines, you are offered links to those sites where the amount requested by the extremely high. And the resources are located in this limit the degree of response.
internal. work to improve your resource in the search engines are in the filling of your site's keywords. Moreover, the number of keys is not as important as the correctness of their choice, because it affects the number of customers you offer resources.

Thank you for your attention ).
