As reported by Mashable, the Official Twitter Tweet Button is now available here. However, for those wanting an easy integration for WordPress blogs can check out my new TweetButton for WordPress plugin. This plugin works in much the same, easy way as Tweetmeme. I based my own plugin heavily on the Tweetmeme code, so rest assured it works!

As you might can see on my own site, the plugin works great!

Download now to check it out:

If this plugin is helpful to you, I would love a $1 cup of coffee:

My company, DCGWS Internet Solutions has been very busy building over the last six months or so, a highly sophisticated social networking platform that can be easily installed on any server. This project is not based on any pre-existing platform, but contains many of the features seen on very popular websites, such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.

Features list for Alpha Release: (available for download, by invitation starting the 1st week in September.

• Multiple Home Pages – Business Users, Personal Users, or Both
• Profile Page with advanced privacy settings
• Image Gallery
• Capture Image from Webcam
• Photo Albums
• Image Sharing
• Ajax Chat
• Groups
• Forums
• Blogs
• Real-time Status Updates
• Friends
• Invite Contacts From Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, AOL and send to Facebook Inbox
• many, many more

Our pre-Alpha testers have said this is better than Boonex, and we think so, too. To arrange for an Ioncube encrypted download, please send your invitation requests to david at d-c-g.com

Alpha testing will last approximately 2 months, we’ll spend a month or so going thru the changes and immediately move on to Beta Testing. Our chosen Beta testers will get a completely free copy of the software, of course with a single domain license which is not transferable.

Note, this is not a Clone, this combines the best of the best, with some new features the others don’t have.

Since I sat down and added something here. I have been extremely busy with some very lucrative development projects and available time for blogging seems to be non-existent. However, last night I started having minor chest pains and my wife is now insisting that I sit down at least one hour before I start working and give some time to my self. So, here I am.

I will tell you this, I have been working with state-of-the-art development tools and will be sharing with my readers the latest in PHP/Flash programming. Every heard of the PHP extension Ming? Well, it allow the user to create stunning Flash movies without using Flash. It’s all programmed with PHP and it’s wild stuff.

In the latest entry for Google’s Webmasters Central Blog, some important information was divulged to us webmasters and seo that at first glance may seem insignificant. However, for those that follow Google closely, we know that there is something important here:

The quality of your snippet — the short text preview we display for each web result — can have a direct impact on the chances of your site being clicked (i.e. the amount of traffic Google sends your way). We use a number of strategies for selecting snippets, and you can control one of them by writing an informative meta description for each URL.

So, what does this mean for us? Well, it means that if you use a “boilerplate” text entry for all the pages in your website. You might get those pages de-listed from the index.

Google likes to say, “We informed  warned webmasters about that here…”

Fix your webpages, or else you might lose important traffic.

Well, here it is September 3rd and still no visible changes in the PageRank values in the Google Toolbar. In my honest opinion, that can only mean two things: Either Google has decided to no longer make it’s PageRank values visible, or they are getting ready to roll out some BIG changes in their algorithms. My guess, evidenced by recent fluctuation on the SERPs, is that a major algorithm update has taken place, maybe even new filters on paid links have been applied. Whichever the case may be OR not be. One thing is for certain, the quest for Googledom is still every SEOs ultimate goal. Since PageRank as a number has little or nothing to do with the SERPs, unless you buy or sell links for a living, it doesn’t really matter what your PageRank value is, only that your backlinks are relevant enough to get you on the 1st page of Google.

 Will there be a Google PageRank Update September 2007? Most definitely, will we be able to see those numbers? Uncertain.

Wow! I finally got a break in the action long enough to give a few tips regarding Live Webcasting on a grand scale. These methods are not for simple webcasting to a few connections, but for broadcast media.

Recently I was approached by a local television station subcontractor regarding the implementation of a Live Webcast. I am not at liberty to discuss any details as there has yet to be anything confirmed. I will only mention general theories and procedures.

My Scenario:

Stream a live webcast while simultaneously broadcasting the webcast on television AND unicasting a live online video game. Whew! That is a brave and innovative bunch of guys dreaming up this project, especially in a country with limited technology and lack of access to the best equipment. Can this be done? Yes. Is it feasible? Doubtful for a untested market.

 Under the best circumstances, here is the proposed system flow:

Television studio broadcasting a live TV show promoting a website’s online gaming program. PC that runs the gaming software is located in the same studio. We connect a $13K Capture Station that will be receiving two seperate inputs.

1. VGA output from PC with gaming software
2. SDI output from professional video camera.

Now here is the catch, this must be strictly real-time delivery. Zero or next-to-zero latency from the studio PC to the end-users browser. After researching I determined that the absolute fastest delivery method was Adobe Flash Video Live. Yet, this is very proprietary, which means of course, Adobe encoding and Adobe servers.

Cost of this method of delivery?

• Accordent Capture Station Hardware and Software – $13,500.00
• Adobe Pro Edition Flash Media Server – $4,500.00 per license (2,500 connections limitation)
• On2 Flix Encoder – $999.00 per year

Is this the best way? Absolutely.

Tomorrow we’ll look at a more affordable method.

If you are a web designer or web developer, then you know how important it is that the sites you design look and function the same in multiple browser environments. This is easily achieved by simply downloading the latest versions of Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Gecko, Konqueror, Opera and what ever you choose. But what about Microsoft Internet Explorer? It is next to impossible to run side-by-side versions of IE. Most designers use more than one PC to accomplish this. There are ways to hack earlier installations of Mirosoft IE to get the desired versions running on the same PC. This will not work however with Windows Vista. However, there is a relatively simple solutions to this problem.

First, you will need to download and install Microsoft VPC 2007. This a very simple install and shouldn’t take over 10 munites at the most.

Then, you need to download and extract this free version of XP released by Microsoft and specially designed to run on VPC 2007.

Once you have these files extracted on your hard drive, simply open VPC 2007, create a new virtual machine and point it to your extracted files.

That’s it…
