Google Adwords Video Advertising!

So What's the Cost?

Surprisingly inexpensive…if done correctly.  As you probably know, YouTube is the biggest video site on the internet serving 4 Billion (yes…with a “B”) videos per day to it’s users.  I’ll give you a real-world example.  Skinny’s Webworks also runs the website and marketing for DeepBlueThemes.com where we sell premium aquarium backgrounds.

Skinny’s Webworks put together a fairly simple video commercial at a cost of about $300.00 to the customer.

DeepBlueThemes.com Aquarium Backgrounds

Of course you can hire a video production company for your video if you like and we can help you with that service also.  But for the purpose of DeepBlueThemes.com, this little commercial is intended to simply let viewers know that the company and their service exists.  Exposure.

During the first day running, this commercial cost $2.00 to run, was viewed in it’s entirety 348 times at a final cost of 2 cents per view.  We are additionally posting this video to our blog, Facebook and other social media sites to extend our exposure.

So as you can see, Google Adwords and YouTube advertising is an inexpensive advertising medium with targeted analytics to reach the right customer with the right interests. Internet advertising doesn’t have to be scary or expensive if you know how to do it right.

Microsoft Publishes Sci-Fi Anthology Inspired by Quantum Computing & Skype

“Earlier this year, Microsoft invited a group of science fiction writers into its research department, giving them unfettered access to its people and resources with the purpose of inspiring a collection of short stories. That collection — titled Future Visions: Original Science Fiction Stories Inspired by Microsoft — is now out, featuring stories from nine award-winning authors on topics from translation to teleportation.

Among the authors invited was Ann Leckie, who won a suite of awards for her debut novel Ancillary Justice in 2013, David Brin, a longtime sci-fi writer who has also served on the advisory board of NASA's Innovative and Advanced Concepts group, and Robert J. Sawyer, whose novel FlashForward was the basis for the show of the same name. Microsoft says each of the writers was free to choose which area of research they wanted to base their stories in, but that they ended up sharing a number of overlapping themes.  "At the time, we were super interested in certain things, like machine learning, deep neural networks, Skype Translator," said Allison Linn, the co-editor of the collection.

THEMES INCLUDE NEURAL NETWORKS, MACHINE LEARNING, AND ON-THE-FLY TRANSLATION

Leckie's story focuses particularly on translation, following a dispute between two spacefaring factions that speak two different languages that requires careful interpretation. The subject is an aspiration for Skype, which has started to incorporate on-the-fly translation features for a future in which people using different languages may be able to speak directly to each other through software. Leckie said her conversations with Microsoft's researchers colored her work, noting that while "it's easy to mechanically say this word should always be translated ‘truck,'" the meaning can change in context, or with body language or tone shifts. "If you know the speaker is agitated," Leckie said, "that provides part of how you're translating the sentence."

The Future Visions collection is available for free download now. While the co-operation of Microsoft means the stories won't imagine a future destroyed by monolithic tech corporations, Jennifer Henshaw — who co-edited the book with Linn — said the company wanted it to stand "not as a piece that was published by Microsoft, but as a piece of science fiction literature that stands on its own." Certainly, the authors included in the anthology have the serious sci-fi pedigree to make that claim.” – By Rich McCormick - The Verge

On December 18, 2015, “Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens” will be released in theaters! This new installment of the ever popular “Star Wars” films is a continuation of the saga created by George Lucas and set thirty years after Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983).

Arriving in 1977 was a film that altered cinema forever. “Star Wars” first emerged in theaters over 38 years ago causing writer/director, George Lucas, to leave a profound legacy. “Star Wars” has left an impact on more than just pop culture and world politics.

As the “Force” behind “Star Wars”, George Lucas was heavily inspired by artists from decades before. Artists such as Frank R. Paul, Hannes Bok, and Anton Brzezinski are among the earliest influences behind the amazing “Star Wars” franchise.

As the original illustrator of the first and numerous sequels, "Ralph A. McQuarrie (1929-2012), pulled influence from these artists as well.

Introducing Skinny’s Webworks! – Websites, Marketing and a Whole Lot More.

My name is Mark Witten.  I am the owner and operator of a number of successful websites and businesses.  The most famous of which is SkinYourSkunk.com guitar skins.

Today…I would like to introduce you to something new and perfectly suited to what I, along with a few other talented individuals, are now making available to you and other businesses.  Introducing Skinny’s Webworks at SkinnysWebworks.com!

Skinny's Webworks is a professional business services company offering internet, marketing, media, social, graphics and advertising services. From website design to television commercials and e-commerce, our experienced group of creative and fun-loving individuals excel in helping you take a business idea...and make it a profitable reality. But what we have created is something different and unique.

In addition to taking the typical role of geeky, nerdy and overly technical services and making them a little more fun and fresh, we are offering all our years of website, graphics, marketing, advertising and social media experience to the world.

In short…we have made our success through these areas of business expertise…especially on the internet and now wish to share them with you to help make you, your business and/or your product success a reality.  You can get all the details at www.SkinnysWebworks.com, but here, I am going to explain a few things about us.

I have been in the computer programming, design and website field since 1989.  Running SkinYourSkunk.com and our other businesses has been a blast!  I have met some of the coolest customers in the world (literally) and simply love my job.  Then the thought came to me.  Why not offer the experience gained through these interactions to other businesses?  And just as important…why not bring a few professional friends into the fold with me?  And that is where Skinny’s Webworks begins.

Yes…we have all the technical, business and experience of other web design companies, but part of the fun of running a business is the persona and the attitude.  So we decided to keep Skinny the Skunk as our mascot to remind us that while business is about profit and success…you can still be fun, personable and have a great time doing your job, growing your business and building a satisfied customer base.

So to avoid boring you any further, click on over to SkinnysWebworks.com and see what we are all about.  What we offer, what we have done and what we can do for you.  We may not be everybody’s “cup of tea”, but if you wish to build a personality…a brand…and a happy customer base, you should at least see the path we have chosen.
