Google Sniper pulls in passive profits, with zero traffic generation...

Google Sniper 2

It’s always refreshing to see new strategies to make money online. However, the majority of the time I’m pretty disappointed with the results.

When I was recommended to buy Google Sniper 2.0, I thought it would be another system that just left me disappointed, but the proof and success stories tipped me to buy it. A quick Google search for testimonials and by watching the sales video it was clear that this system has worked wonders for other people, and it’s actually generated the most online success stories than any other system/course to date. It was a no brainer to give it a shot personally.

At the time in my Internet marketing journey, I was pretty lost as to what road to head down. Google Sniper 2.0 really outlays the basics, from picking a niche, choosing keywords, buying a domain to setting up a wordpress website which will generate passive income online. It’s an extensive guide, but it’s easy to pick up (the walkthrough videos by George help also).

I studied the strategy pretty extensively to start with, and created my first “Sniper” site the next day. I was pretty excited due to the success stories, but still had that common doubt that it would be another blowout. I made my first bit of commission two weeks later after setting up the site completely. It wasn’t a huge amount but it was something, and that was the trigger to skim through the course once more to see if I could improve my site in anyway. The site in question started to generate me a tidy amount of commission, and still generates on average $375 a month (on autopilot).

As I’ve been recommended many times before, “if something works duplicate it...” And that’s what I did. I now have about 10 sniper sites, all generating commission each month. Each site differs in the amount of money I’m making, but I can’t squabble as I’m on the hunt for more...

The best thing about this course is alongside earning a nice income each month from this system on autopilot with no traffic generation, it’s also an extensive guide into niche research, finding products to promote and how to set up your own website. Yes, it may need to be read through a few times, but believe me...
It’s worth it.

Galaxy Note 10.1 vs iPad 3: What Will You Buy for Christmas Gift This year?

Samsung and Apple have declared a full-fledged war on each other for quite some time with legal patent battles happening for quite some time. While these legal proceedings pass in the background, both the companies have released their respective tablets in the market to bring the fight among users and their choices. Two such tablets are Apple’s iPad 3 and Samsung’s Galaxy Note 10.1.

While the iOS-based iPad 3 made its way to users back in March this year, the Galaxy Note 10.1, supported by Google’s Android, arrived a little later in August. Both the tablets are still hot in the market and users are confused as to which will be worth their money.

Display

The iPad's Retina display sporting dimensions 241.2 x 185.7 x 9.4 mm (9.50 x 7.31 x 0.37 in) is truly amazing, and even more when its 2048 x 1536 resolution eliminates the 1280 x 800 resolution found on the Galaxy Note 10.1. The iPad's 9.7-inch IPS LCD panel, without question, offers a sharper look along with breathtaking viewing angles.

However, 10.1-inch Super PLS LCD panel of the Galaxy Note 10.1 with dimension of 262 x 180 x 8.9 mm (10.31 x 7.09 x 0.35 in) is no push-over as well. Although it’s not really inclined to provide anything great with its lower resolution and not-so-great viewing angles, it still provides higher accurateness and precision thanks to the tablet’s S Pen functionality that makes use of the Wacom technology, and there is no tablet as of now in the market that offers that kind of technological support.

Operating System

The biggest question here is iOS or Android. While the iPad based on iOS offers the simplicity and low learning curve of the platform that has since appealed to people, unluckily, it lacks the personalization fundamentals to make the experience unique. The iPad 3 comes with iOS 5 out of the box which can be upgraded to iOS 6.

The Galaxy Note 10.1, on the other hand, boasts deep personalization elements and extensive sharing functionality, and that’s something standard amongst all Android devices. The tablet comes pre-loaded with Android 4.0 ICS.

Camera

Both the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 and the iPad 3 feature a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera, with the Apple version arriving with a backside illuminated sensor. Furthermore, the Galaxy Note 10.1sports a 1.9-megapixel front-facing camera whereas the iPad 3 has a VGA camera.

Although there’s not much of a difference between both the device’s cameras, the new iPad holds a slight advantage because of its ability to handle low light better. As far as high definition video quality is concerned the iPad sports 1080p recording, while the Galaxy Note 10.1 still sticks to 720p.

Processor

On paper, the quad-core 1.4GHz Exynos processor with 2GB of RAM inside the Galaxy Note 10.1 may seem like a pretty good bet, but people who have already acquired the tablet will know that although the Samsung tablet packs a punch, it still doesn't have the same level of consistency found with the iPad's dual-core 1GHz Apple A5x CPU with 1GB of RAM.

Both the tablets are available in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB variants, but the iPad 3 lacks an external microSD card slot unlike the Samsung tablet (upto 64GB additional memory support), and this is a major drawback for Apple.

Connectivity

Both the devices feature a Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, with the Galaxy Note 10.1 sporting a Wi-Fi Direct with dual-band and Wi-Fi hotspot. Similarly, both of them sport Bluetooth v4.0 with A2DP with USB v2.0.

Battery

It is being said that users might be able to get a full day of normal usage out of both tablets with their batteries fully charged. However, it has also been stated that the iPad retains more juice at the end of the day over its competition, but not by much.

In conclusion, both the tablets have their own advantages and functionality and everything depends on the user as to how they will want to spend their money and go for the right tablet. It also depends on which OS the user will be more comfortable, because both Android and iOS offer their special functionalities.

Kindle Fire - Good Choice

This won't be one of those long technical reviews. You're reading this to make sure that the Amazon Kindle Fire you already know you want is up to snuff, and well, it is. I've had it since Thursday — reading, watching video, listening to music, checking email, even playing some games — and I can say it's tight. Turn it on and you know what to do, like with an Apple product. So much like an Apple product that Apple should be scared.

It's a 7-inch tablet, which means that it's half as big as an iPad, and way closer in size to a paperback book. It could be a little easier to grip, but Amazon went minimalist here, rather than opting for some weird-looking ergonomics. Because of the size, reading is easier than on an iPad, though kids' entertainment and other engrossing interactive content isn't as fun. And because the Fire is widescreen, unlike the more 4x3 iPad, videos look almost as big as they do on Apple's much larger device. As far as screen quality goes, it's on par with the iPad. In other words, as an opening move, hardware-wise, Amazon's getting it right.

If you buy the Fire from Amazon's website, it comes with your login information already onboard, so you just confirm that you are you, and you're off. The top of the home screen has labeled categories: Newsstand, Books, Music, Video, Docs, Apps and Web. Any Kindle e-books you ever bought show up in the library archive, any music you bought or uploaded to Amazon's Cloud Player shows up in music, and any video in your locker is there, too. There's a gallery of apps that you may have purchased from Amazon's app store (excuse me, "Appstore"). And by design, each page of stuff you own is just a click away from a store where you can get a ton more.

Amazon's Appstore is a huge asset. Because it is tied to Amazon's own purchasing system, it's easier for you to buy apps from a trusted source. And because Amazon went with quality over quantity, it lacks the feel of Google's Android Market, which can get so slimy that it could use a hosing down from time to time. Not every app you want is in the Amazon Appstore, but the company is already getting some of the best stuff out there — including apps from competitors like Netflix and Hulu — and developers who see the Kindle Fire will work just as hard to get their "A" material in front of Fire buyers.

The rest of the home screen is a combination of two well-known Apple design elements. Up top, there's a "cover flow" of all recent items, be they book, app, movie or Web page. Underneath is an iBooks-like shelving system, where you can pin and rearrange your favorite media items. Rip-off or not, the interface works well enough. The Fire is certainly more fluid than the Kindle e-reader, which succeeds in spite of its user interface.

John Brecher / msnbc.comAmazon Prime lets you borrow a book a month 
at no extra cost, and some of the titles are bestsellers

Speaking of fluid, the Fire's Silk browser is nice and quick, and only gets faster as it wises up to your browsing patterns. If you always hit the msnbc.com home page then jump to Tech/Sci, it will start caching Tech/Sci in anticipation of your click. And though it tends to trigger the mobile versions of websites, it has few problems with the full versions, including embedded video and other features. I did encounter a broken page once, apparently caused by an ad loading funny, but troubles have been minor to date.

It's easy to see that Amazon Prime will be a requirement for most Fire buyers, and not only because it's the best way to get Julia Child's original series "The French Chef" instantly on demand. Prime videos, movies and books could account for a huge chunk of your media diet, and represent the best value. It's a shame Amazon doesn't have a Spotify-like component for on-demand music, but I suspect that would eat too much into its MP3 sales.

The biggest downside to Prime video is that it's like Netflix, and only works when you're connected to the Internet. That means that, in an airplane or a car, you are likely in trouble. You can connect the Kindle Fire to your PC or Mac and easily copy over home videos and movies you rip from DVD (DVDs you own, hopefully). Still, the main way to take videos with you into a no-bandwidth zone is to rent or buy them, so you can download them to the Fire. Beware, because with a total of 8GB on board, you only have enough storage for 10 movies or 800 songs, but certainly not both. There's no step-up model, like there is with the iPad, and there's no SD card slot, like on the Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet.

As you wander through the Kindle Fire interface, it's not easy to get lost, partly because the categories are so cut-and-dry, and partly because you can nearly always see a home button to take you back when things get muddy. But I say "nearly" because in some apps, you have to click a few times to even see the home button. This inconsistency made me miss the physical home button found on the iPad and many Android devices. While we're on the subject, I also missed volume up/down buttons, and wish that the on/off button wasn't located on the bottom, where it's so easily pressed on accident.

But these are design issues that don't really interfere with the overall potency of the product, especially since much of the potency comes from that $199 price tag. What does matter is battery life. Amazon says it's "up to 8 hours of continuous reading, or 7.5 hours of video playback, with wireless off." That's not as good as an iPad, which is rated for up to 10 hours of continuous use. I didn't run it into the ground in one sitting, but I managed to go several days of regular use between charges. Again, an iPad can go longer — mine lasts nearly a week between charges. Still, the Fire's battery life ought to be satisfactory for most people.

John Brecher / msnbc.com

So while we're on the subject of iPad, let's have the talk. No, the Kindle Fire is not anywhere close to being the precision machine that the iPad 2 is. There are no cameras and no microphone. The Fire's screen is half the size of the iPad's, and the Fire's battery life isn't as good, yet the Fire is still a hair thicker. The Fire interface, while seductively simple, lacks the nuances — the futuristic animations and fades — that keep Apple on top.

But for Apple, this still spells trouble. The Kindle Fire can handle about 80 percent of what I want to do on an iPad, for 40 percent of the price. And much of what's missing won't be missing for long. Even if you can justify buying one iPad, you may look to the Fire as a second device in your high-tech home. And if you can't justify an iPad this holiday season, you might consider Amazon's alternative.

Later this week, we'll be looking at the Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet, the closest thing to competition that the Kindle Fire will see in its class and price range. Though Barnes & Noble already has momentum from selling the Nook Color, it's hard to see how the book retailer could outsell Amazon in this space, especially since Amazon is a digital media powerhouse, and these tablets are about more than reading. We keep an open mind, though, not least of all because the Nook specs are impressive. But for the moment, and perhaps for the time being, Kindle Fire is well worth its amazingly low price.

Nexus 7

The good: The Nexus 7 features a sharp screen, a comfy design, and great battery life at a low starting price. Android 4.2 adds some welcome and useful features.

The badness: Android still needs more tablet-optimized apps, newer games have frame rate issues, and HSPA+ speeds seem particularly location-dependent.

The bottom line: With its excellent design, useful software features, and low starting price, the Nexus 7 is the cheapest way to experience the best that the Android OS has to offer. 

Undoubtedly tired of the struggle against the iPad, Google announced its own branded 7-inch tablet: the Google Nexus 7 by Asus, complete with stellar specs and a rock-bottom price.

We've now been given a new and upgraded 32GB option to join the 16GB offering, with the price not raised above £199, which is hugely impressive for a quad core, Tegra 3-endowed tablet.

Like other Nexus-branded devices, the Google Nexus 7 tablet isn't actually hardware manufactured by Google (as you may have noticed, thanks to the suffix).

As the Mountain View company has done with Samsung, HTC and Motorola in the past, Google paired with Asus to design and manufacture this slender tablet. 

Price

The Nexus 7 has an MSRP of $199, which is 53.6% less than the average for all Tablets. 

Camera

Additionally, the Nexus 7 has a front camera with a 1.2 megapixel image sensor. The Nexus 7 is photo friendly and includes the following camera features: Front Facing Camera. 

Connectivity

The Nexus 7 is equipped with the following wireless connectivity: Bluetooth and WiFi. The Nexus 7 tablet computer also incudes a 3.5mm headphone connector as well as the following wired connectivity features: microUSB The Nexus 7's processor is a Quad Core 1.2 GHz, which is slightly more than the average for all Tablets. This tablet offers 8 GB of internal storage, which is 50% less than the average for all Tablets. Additionally, this tablet also offers 1 GB of RAM, which is the average for all Tablets. The Nexus 7 is 7.81" tall, 4.72" wide, and 0.41"thick, which is 18% less than the average for all Tablets. 

Screen

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1

The good: The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 sports a proven, sensible design, a bevy of useful features, and fast performance. The S Pen Stylus is a unique addition.

The badness: Only a limited number of apps make full use of the S Pen and some of the ones that do can be buggy and confusing. Some S Pen features aren't enabled by default and others don't work properly.

The bottom line: The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is the best Samsung tablet yet. If you can get over its somewhat high price, it's a sound Android tablet investment.

Samsung recently launched the follow up to their Galaxy Tab line of Android-based tablets, the Galaxy Note 10.1. Although the original Galaxy Note's form factor didn’t quite conform to either traditional smartphones or tablets, and some even dubbed it a “phablet”, it has been a huge success for Samsung and has sold millions of units worldwide. With the new Galaxy Note 10.1, not only does Samsung leverage the branding of one of its more popular products, but it’s bringing over some similar technology as well. Along with a few new design queues and software tweaks, the Galaxy Note 10.1 also features Samsung’s S-Pen stylus, which was one of the differentiating features of the original Galaxy Note, along with its funky form factor. 

With the inclusion of a stylus, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 attempts something different for full-size tablets. In certain apps the S Pen (as the stylus is called) does improve precision and can make note taking a much faster affair. Also, if you're willing to put in the time learning the apps and gestures, the S Pen can deliver a useful and rewarding interface experience. But if you've no artistic aspirations and typing out your notes is your preferred method, does the S Pen offer any real benefit?

Not really. For general tablet usage your finger is still the best tool for the job, and unless you have a specific need for an electronic pen (say, you're an artist) or are willing to a take long hike over a slow, steep learning curve, there's really no benefit to using it.

Thankfully, even if you don't use the pen, the Note 10.1's fast overall performance, sensible design, great-looking screen, and useful features make it the best Samsung tablet yet.

Peel's Smart Remote app
The Note 10.1's IR blaster, in conjunction with Peel's included Smart Remote app, helps turn your tablet into a remote control for your TV. Peel can take the place of your cable or satellite channel guide and display a list of shows currently playing locally on your provider's channels. Go to the currently playing tab and click on a show, and your TV switches to the appropriate channel. Peel does a great job of holding your hand initially through a step-by-step setup wizard. The setup only requires that you know your TV manufacturer's name, your cable/satellite provider, and your ZIP code. Thankfully, Peel spares us from having to know any more-detailed information; however, be aware that Smart Remote does not work with regular monitors, only TVs or monitor/TV combos. Though it's well-implemented overall, I'm still waiting for Hulu and Netflix integration, and an actual search feature would be useful.

Hardware features
The most obvious and significant hardware feature on the Note 10.1 is easily the S Pen. The S Pen looks like a traditional stylus and pretty much feels like one too, but differentiates itself from lesser digital pens. The pen's tip sports a pressure-sensitive sensor that recognizes 1,024 levels of pressure. Samsung says the original Note only got as high as 256. So, depending on the app you're using (not all apps support this), the harder you press the pen on the screen, the thicker the resulting lines.

This may be appealing with those (unlike myself) with actual artistic talent who know how to use shading to approximate three-dimensional figures in a two-dimensional space. Again, if you're like me and you have no idea what I just wrote, the Stylus has limited appeal as simply a tool used to navigate. I mentioned a difficult learning curve before; that really isn't limited to any one app. There is depth here for those willing to take the time to delve deeply, but the sharp jagged rocks of the confusing UI will scare many off. Also, for the most part, my fingers still work better.

The Note 10.1 houses a 1.4GHz quad-core Exynos 4410 CPU and 2GB of RAM. Tablet mainstays like 802.11 a/b/g/n (2.4GHz and 5GHz) Wi-Fi support, Bluetooth 4.0, and GPS are included as well as gyroscope, accelerometer, and a digital compass.

Performance
Whether I'm using the pen or my fingers, tapping through menus is as swift a process as I've seen on any Android tablet, with no noticeable hangs or stops. Switching between apps also matches the fastest Android tablets available. However, from an aesthetic standpoint, I was disappointed by how stuttery scrolling through pages and apps looked compared with the ultra smoothness most Tegra 3 tablets demonstrate.

I used Riptide GP as my real-world games benchmark. The game delivered frame rates roughly on par with what I've seen on 1.4GHz Tegra 3-based tablets like the Asus Transformer Prime, but doesn't include the Tegra 3-specific graphical effects. Also, the frame rate isn't as consistent or as high as on either the iPad 2 or third-generation iPad.

Web speeds on Wi-Fi were about typical using either Chrome or the default browser. App downloads over Wi-Fi at 5 feet away from the router were pulled down at a rate of about 1.8MBps, compared with the Google Nexus 7's 2.3MBps, with the scores averaged over three iterations.

The screen responds quickly to the S Pen and scrolls just as quickly as it would under a finger; however, the screen may be a bit too heavily calibrated toward accepting precise touches from the pen. Attempting to scrub through videos using just my finger didn't always work.

The screen's 1,280x800-pixel resolution is fine for most purposes, but I must admit to being spoiled by recent Android tablets like the Asus Transformer Infinity and Acer Iconia Tab A700 with their sharper 1,920x1,200-pixel resolutions -- a resolution I feel would have been beneficial on a tablet so focused on creating content.

The front camera won't wow you with its quality, but at 1.9 megapixels, it won't distract you either as long as you're not planning to do more than some videoconferencing on it. The 5-megapixel back camera isn't capable of the same level of clarity or color saturation I've seen on higher-quality cameras like the Transformer Infinity's or the iPad's.


Conclusion
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 comes with 16GB of storage for $500 or 32GB for $550, and thanks to its fast performance, sensible design, and a bucketload of features, it's the best Samsung tablet yet.

However, as Jessica Dolcourt implied in her review of the original Galaxy Note phone, the S Pen's potential far outreaches its implementation and that price, no doubt driven by the inclusion of the stylus and its supporting technologies, should be about $50 lower. Especially given the limited usefulness of the S Pen for most people, the lack of the Jelly Bean OS at launch, and a lower-res screen than tablets are capable of.

If you're looking for a full-size tablet, the Asus Transformer Infinity is still the Android tablet to get because of its beautiful, high-res screen, fast performance, and useful features; however, artists looking to take their portfolios on the go or those willing to put in the time to learn a new type of interface will want to give the Note 10.1 serious consideration.
