<p>Seriously, you don’t need to spend any money to <strong>get more followers</strong> or <strong>fans</strong> on Twitter of Facebook.&#160; What you can do is try to remember that your social media outlets are there to have others recommend you to others and that is really how you increase your base.&#160; </p>
<p>There are a few things you can do such as post your Twitter, Facebook and YouTube links on your company’s website and then HOPE they will follow you, OR you can take the approach <a title="skittles viral marketing" href="http://www.skittles.com" target="_blank">Skittles</a> did and randomly redirect their company website to their social websites.&#160; This is a great technique that can increase the awareness of your social media initiatives.&#160; This is a pretty slick idea that I’m willing to try out.&#160; Don’t be annoyed if you expect to see the awesome Tony Rocks homepage, but then get redirected to my <a title="tony rocks twitter" href="http://www.twiter.com/tonyrocks">Twitter</a> page :)</p>

Ugh.&nbsp; Well, here are some of my favorite dumb celebrity attempts at making a rock video. (In no particular order because they all suck)</p>
<p><strong>#5 Don Johnson &#8211; Heartbeat 1986</strong></p>
<p>Cool enough for Miami, but super lame for a rock video.&nbsp; This song is absolutely horrible and Don&#8217;s singing skills are similar to your dad singing Karaoke at a bar on Wednesday night.</p>
<p><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ufWFQRzpzWU&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" width="425" height="344" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></p>
<p><strong>#4 Eddie Murphy &#8211; Party All the Time 1987</strong></p>
<p>We all love Eddie, we all love Rick James, but when you put the two together it is like sniffing ammonia solvents for fun.&nbsp; What is up with the squeaky voice, Eddie?&nbsp; And get a look at Rick&#8217;s hair?&nbsp; Rick Astley actually looks like he could kick Rick James&#8217; bootie in this video.</p>
<p><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bDbpzjbXUZI&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" width="425" height="344" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></p>
<p><strong>#3 Mr T. &#8211; Treat Your Mama Right 1986?</strong></p>
<p>I know, Mr T could kick my butt for posting this, but I have to tell you, I was amazed that he would do such a thing&#8230;In fact I pitty the fo&#8230; never mind.&nbsp; This technically isn&#8217;t a rock video, but I figured seeing Mr T in a new light would be interesting for all to see. TREAT HER RIGHT, TREAT YOUR MAMMA RIGHT!</p>
<p><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/tFNJLs-Ql0o&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" width="425" height="344" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></p>
<p><strong>#2 Patrick Swayze &#8211; She&#8217;s Like the Wind 1988</strong></p>
<p>More like, <strong>He Breaks the Wind</strong>.&nbsp; This song is is soooo riddled with reverb that it makes you wonder how much heroin the studio engineers had to go through in order to tolerate a mix-down of this tune. Patrick&#8217;s facial expressions flow well with his awesome super mullet. I hate that stupid Dirty Dancing movie.</p>
<p><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/AHALMffPqYU&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" width="425" height="344" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></p>
<p><strong>#1 Bruce Willis &#8211; Respect Yourself 1987</strong></p>
<p>One of my favorite tough-guys on tv and the movies really lost respect from me with this horrible version of Madonna&#8217;s hit&#8230;wait, did she do it after him? Doesn&#8217;t matter.&nbsp; Yeah, I know Bruce is supposed to be a &#8220;blues man&#8221; and plays the harmonica, but this video will make you wonder that.&nbsp; Sorry Bruce&#8230;this songs stinks.&nbsp; Respect acting&#8230;not singing next time.</p>

Well you don&#8217;t have to actually buy those things if you only want to see what is going on with chat sessions.</p>
<p>Now I don&#8217;t think it is a good idea to spy on chat sessions, but spying on chat sessions to recover lost information is a good thing.&nbsp; If you are not sure what I mean then here is a better description.&nbsp; Technically it is not spying if you are looking at stuff you&#8217;ve typed.&nbsp;</p>
<p>So why spy on chat&nbsp;sessions?&nbsp; Well, a <a href="http://www.tonyrocks.com/index.php/category/affiliate-marketing/">situation occurred</a>&nbsp;when I had a very detailed chat session with a potential customer which actually contained a few conversations about specific items such as timeframe of project, phone numbers and emails.&nbsp; Well, I accidentally closed out the chat session before I could save all of that important information.</p>
<p>Like many things on the Internet chat sessions are usually logged in some form.&nbsp; Especially the chat program clients such as AOL Instant Messenger, MSN Messenger and my favorite, Trillian.&nbsp; I&#8217;ll show you what you can do to get started with &#8220;spying&#8221; or logging your favorite chat program.</p>
<p><strong>You need to make sure you have chat logging turned on.</strong>&nbsp; If you are using Trillian, go to the Trillian Preferences Menu:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.tonyrocks.com/wp-content/windowslivewriterspyingonchatprograms-13d66trillian-preferences1.png" atomicselection="true"><img style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="240" src="http://www.tonyrocks.com/wp-content/windowslivewriterspyingonchatprograms-13d66trillian-preferences.png" width="195" border="0"></a> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.tonyrocks.com/wp-content/windowslivewriterspyingonchatprograms-13d66trilliian-34.png" atomicselection="true"><img style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; margin: 0px 15px 0px 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="82" src="http://www.tonyrocks.com/wp-content/windowslivewriterspyingonchatprograms-13d66trilliian-3-thumb2.png" width="73" align="left" border="0"></a>Next click Activity History.&nbsp; This will allow you to select what to log.&nbsp;</p>
<p>From the preference setting, you can select what items you would like to log. If these items are already selected then you have already&nbsp;been logging your chat sessions. </p>
<p>To make things easy on yourself, you&nbsp;should select an easy to remember folder location to save the history of the chat sessions.&nbsp;<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>By default&nbsp;Trillian stores its chat sessions to c:\Program Files\Trillian\users\default\logs.&nbsp; </strong>Save your preferences and then you are ready to go!</p>
<p>Now to check things out and to &#8220;spy&#8221; on the chat sessions, open your Windows Explorer to this path:</p>
<p>C:\Program Files\Trillian\users\default\logs<img style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="197" src="http://www.tonyrocks.com/wp-content/windowslivewriterspyingonchatprograms-13d66trillian5-thumb1.png" width="271" align="right" border="0"></p>
<p>If you use Trillian as your main chat client for the big-three chat services, then you will see a folder for MSN, AOL and Yahoo:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.tonyrocks.com/wp-content/windowslivewriterspyingonchatprograms-13d66trillian-52.png" atomicselection="true"><img style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="160" src="http://www.tonyrocks.com/wp-content/windowslivewriterspyingonchatprograms-13d66trillian-5-thumb.png" width="357" border="0"></a> </p>
<p>I would like to see what I typed to an old buddy of mine through AOL.&nbsp; Under the AOL directory is another directory called Query.&nbsp; It is under this directory where you will find all of the related chat sessions with specific users in XML and LOG (which can be read in a text editor).</p>
<p><strong>Go ahead and plop those .log files into a text editor and enjoy your past.</strong>&nbsp; You will be surprised as what you or your chat buddies have said before.</p>
<p>Spy Software Resources:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> You know I am still wondering about this whole <strong>social networking</strong> deal.Â  Yes it seems to work, but I don&#8217;t now if I&#8217;m totally sold on the whole concept.Â  Social networking sites like Digg, Friendster, Facebook and <a title="am golds mysapce site" href="http://www.myspace.com/amgoldmusic"><strong>Myspace</strong></a> are pretty neato, but you know do you actually get alot of marketing power promotion out of it?</p>
<p>The big topic in the forums is whether or not blasting out myspace bulliten messages works or not. Â  I say no.Â  What kind of social netoworking is this?Â  I mean realistically it is like being at a huge stadium watching your favorite band with others who dig your type of music (kinda like how myspace connects you with people in your &#8220;social network&#8221;)Â  and holding up a small 5X11 piece of paper with your advertisement. Â  It is not like anyone is going to see it.</p>
<p><strong>So I say don&#8217;t waste your money on massic bulliten postings!</strong></p>
<p>But other sites like Digg and <a title="stumble upon social networking" href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/"><strong>Stumbleupon</strong></a> I think are atleast a but cooler in the social networking field, mostly because they allow you to become a buzz and have others move your buzz along. Stumble upon is cool and I must admit that I DO get lots of traffic from it, but also I have to say that I stumble upon other cool sites that people share that actually end up in my bookmarks.</p>
<p>So wrapping it up, social networking is any site that puts you in control of your portfolio and allows you to share your portfolio (be it music, art, money, whatever) with others.Â  This is the viral attribute of social networking&#8230;you will be suprised to find what ends up being viral. </p>
