How To Use Twitter For Adult Website Operators!
Here is a list of all the current Dreamgirls on Twitter. Any of the Dreamnet Followers that want to post their ID’s please do so.
Since we have so many new women on Dreamnet I thought I’d share some of my twitter tips since I’ve used it for 3 3 years!
First off and this is quote from me: “#1 rule of success in the adult web biz: Pay attention to the ones that pay attention to you!”
- If you have twitter on your site USE IT! Nothing is more of a turn off than going to a girls Twitter page and finding that she’s not posted in 3 months or only posts once or twice a month. If you do not using it take it off your site!
- FOLLOW people that follow you! Your fans (i.e. followers) are taking time out of their lives to pay attention to you. So you should follow them back and show interest in them. If someone is allowing you to post to their twitter stream you should give the courtesy back and allow them to post to yours.
- Pay ATTENTION to your @ tweets. If someone @ tweets you. Have the courtesy to reply to them. If you don’t you look stuck up like you don’t care.
- DO NOT follow spammers. Some will follow you only to “spam”. When someone follows you look at their twitter stream before you follow them back, if it’s just a bunch of spamming and links don’t follow them.
- Ensure your Twitter Stream is “unprotected”!
- Twitter is not chat! There is nothing more annoying that following somebody who “chats” on twitter. If you want to have a full conversation with someone do not use your public twitter. If you do want to chat via Twitter do it via direct messaging or better yet use a proper chat medium like instant messaging or email.
- Do not spam your followers. Yes we all are promoting something everyone knows that. But if all you are doing is tweeting out “come see me” or “come see this” it’s a major turn off.
- Share your real life. The interesting thing about twitter is that it gives you a little insight into peoples real lives. So tweet out every day stuff about what you are doing. Don’t over do it, but just make it interesting.
- Share your real thoughts. Tweet out your opinions don’t be bashful, once again that provides insight to your personality!
- Don’t tweet excessively. Nothing is more annoying that someone that tweets ever two minutes.
- Learn to use twitter on your mobile devices. If you have a normal phone you can tweet via text messaging. Go into your mobile settings on Twitter and set up! If you have a smart phone, almost of them have Twitter client software in which you can tweet from your phone.
- Post pictures on Twitter. Learn to post pictures for your followers. I personally love the pictures! Not just pictures from your web site, the best Twitter pictures are the candid ones. You at the Gym, you in the changing room, stuff when you are out and about running errands, pictures when your traveling etc.!

Keep Your Porn Purchases Hidden
How To Keep Your Porn Purchases On The Down Low
I was asked this question by somebody on Twitter and I thought I’d share with everyone. I know in this day and age many spouses and significant others are watching Credit Card and Bank Statements very closely. So sneaking purchases past the finance officer in your household can be tricky!
I have BIG NEWS! CCBill now accepts all those Visa and Master Cards that you purchase in the grocery store gift card section!
We don’t recommend lying to your spouse or significant other. Tell them about your adult fantasies you may even be surprised. But if your significant other is closed minded and does not understand you wanting to view adult material follow the simple steps below.
Here is how to surf adult sites online and not get busted!
- Purchase a prepaid Visa or Mastercard from your local grocery store gift card section. These cards CANNOT be traced to you and you will never sent a statement at your house.
- Surf the Web privately using the free web browsers Firefox, Safari or Google Chrome. All three browsers are available on both Windows and Mac. All three browsers offer a private browsing function that allows you to surf the web without leaving browser history, cookies and saved passwords. This way your significant other will have no tracks to follow.
- Open a free email account. I recommend Gmail, however, both Microsoft and Yahoo have free email accounts too. Note, DO not put in your real name and personal information.
- Optional: Create seperate profiles on your computer for yourself and your spouse. Just play it off like you want to have your own space to organize differently.

Today 3-14 is Pi (∏) Day!
Pi, Greek letter (∏), is the symbol for the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Pi Day is celebrated by math enthusiasts around the world on March 14th. Pi = 3.1415926535…
With the use of computers, Pi has been calculated to over 1 trillion digits past the decimal. Pi is an irrational and transcendental number meaning it will continue infinitely without repeating. The symbol for pi was first used in 1706 by William Jones, but was popular after it was adopted by the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler in 1737.

Here is my New Machine: Apple iMac 21.5 inch screen, 3.06 GHz process, 8 gigs of RAM, 1 terabyte internal drive and 1 terabyte external drive. CD/DVD burner and 256 Meg ATI video card. This will be a great machine for media and video production!

According to several sources Call of Duty 2: Modern Warfare is the best selling media lunch in history. Larger than any CD, Movie, DVD or any other game.

Phoenix WordCamp 2009 Summary
First off I want to thank Cali Lewis of GeekBrief.TV for introducing me to the idea of attending WordCamp.
I want to pass along some of what I learned from Phoenix WordCamp on Friday November 13, 2009.
Over all Phoenix WordCamp was a GREAT event and I learned a great deal about blogging in general and WordPress specifically. Visit the main WordCamp website to find details for your area.
As far as blogging is concern (on any platform) the overall theme expressed by Lorelle VanFossen and Merlin Mann was to find your voice on the Internet. I probably can’t explain this as eloquently as they did, but the bottom line is be yourself! The best way to find an audience on the Internet once you enter the Blogging and Social Media world is to figure out who you are and what you want to be online. Then use this Voice you have developed and do not apologize for it.
Voice is a concept that is hard to explain but in my mind it means being “you” and saying what you want to say without trepidation. Your Voice should be passionate!
No matter who you become online or how you present yourself be true to yourself. Whether it is the real you or an alter persona stick with that Voice and be consistent with it.
WordCamp Phoenix Note Summary
Listed below are some notes I jotted down. I have listed them according to speaker.
Matt Mullenweg – The founder of WordPress!
In my opinion Matt’s biggest point was that WordPress is a open source project with community development it is this eco-system which keeps it alive and moving forward. As the world’s largest blogging platform and content management system it is crucial all WordPress bloggers and developers respect the GPL license and don’t give your money to people that refuse to follow the GPL.
Lorelle VanFossen – One of the most prolific and read bloggers on the Internet producing in excess of 3500 articles a year.
General Thoughts:
- Rules – there are no rules about what to blog about
- Short Paragraphs – each paragraph should be 1 point
- Headings – full thought and use the heading tags, h1, h2 etc
- Lists – use them makes for easing reading
- Bold – don’t abuse it
- Emoticons – don’t use them
- Copying Others – Don’t copy other’s posts
- WordPress – always type as one word with capital W and P
- Content – be interesting. Show your readers something they have not seen before or show them something in a different way.
- Timeless content – posting timeless content is good when possible. Article series are good.
- Publishing – Do on a consistent basis it keeps people coming back.
- For Yourself – blog for yourself and the like minded. Don’t worry about the creeps and mean spirited people, they are every where on line and not matter what you post they will find you.
- Nouns/Pronouns – Use the full noun whenever possible. Nouns are index by the search engine crawlers. i.e. “I love blogging using WordPress.“ instead of ”I love blogging using it.“
Tools:
Jim Christian – Go Daddy Top Search Engine Optimization Expert (Note you can use the Go Daddy code ”GDPHXWC“ for 10% off on buying domains.
General:
- Most important thing I learned ”Optimize Your Content“ for the keywords you want used on specific page or post.
- SEO should come naturally through your writing and content.
- Be a ”White Hat“ SEO person. i.e. don’t try to cheat and scam the system. You’ll end up getting buried by Google.
- Inbound links to your site are crucial for relevance.
- Anchor text is crucial. Anchor text is the text used in describing your link. The part you click on.
- Page Title Tags – The title tag on your page is very important. Keep it less than 65 characters and make sure you most important keyword is first. i.e. if your selling hats; ”Hats all colors of the rainbow“ is better that ”Get your hats in every color of the rainbow“.
- Page Description Meta Tag: 24 words or less and include keywords.
- Keywords Meta Tag: Largely ignored by all search engines. But still use them to keep yourself organized.
- Make sure the content on your page uses the keywords you want to optimize for the page.
Tools:
Dave Moyer - founder of Bit Wire Media and one of the personalities on the WordCast Podcast.
- Dave’s presentation stressed how blogging/website content can go much beyond words.
- Most of his presentation revolved tools for incorporating media into your blog or website
- For blogging keep things short. Short videos will be watched in the blog format. If you blog long videos most will bail out prior to completion.
- Learn to use the RSS tools of your blog it’s crucial for syndication.
Tools:
- WP Audio Player
- XSPF Flash Player
- PowerPlayer for WordPress podcasting
- Feedburner for putting your podcasts into iTunes
- Press75.com – great site for WordPress Media templates.
Jason Cote – founder of WPCOOP.ORG for professionals providing WordPress knowledge and development. Lead creative visionary of Ground Up Media
Jason’s main point on business in the 21st century is branding is no longer your ”logo“ but rather your ”personality“. Whether you are company or individual you have to manage your online personality to succeed.
Merlin Mann – What can I say about this guy? He is an online rock star! He covered so much in his portion that it ran 45 minutes long and nobody wanted him to read the stage. But I would say is main point was all about finding your Voice as I covered at the top of this article.
Speakers John Hawkins, Brent Spore and Clintus all talked about more specific technical topics which cannot be covered here. But visit their sites for more information.

Net neutrality rules face mounting GOP opposition
Repost of Article from USA Today: http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/techpolicy/2009-10-05-net-neutrality_N.htm
WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican opposition is mounting as federal regulators prepare to vote this month on so-called “network neutrality” rules, which would prohibit broadband providers from favoring or discriminating against certain types of Internet traffic flowing over their lines.
Twenty House Republicans — including most of the Republicans on the House Energy and Commerce Committee — sent a letter to Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski on Monday urging him to delay the Oct. 22 vote on his net neutrality plan.
Genachowski, one of three Democrats on the five-member commission, wants to impose rules to ensure that broadband providers don’t abuse their power over Internet access to favor their own services or harm competitors.
Democrats say the rules will keep phone companies from discriminating against Internet calling services and stop cable TV providers from hindering online video applications.
But in a letter to Genachowski on Monday, Rep. Cliff Stearns of Florida, the top Republican on the Subcommittee on Communications, Technology and the Internet, and his colleagues warned that new net neutrality regulations could discourage broadband providers from investing in their networks. The letter said that if Internet service providers can’t manage traffic on their networks to ensure efficient service, consumers could suffer.
The Republicans are calling on Genachowski to conduct a “thorough market analysis” to determine whether new regulations are necessary.
Their points echoed those made in a letter that House Minority Leader John Boehner of Ohio and House Republican Whip Eric Cantor of Virginia sent to President Barack Obama on Friday.
Genachowski’s office had no comment on the letters.
Meanwhile in the Senate, the top Republican on the Commerce Committee, Kay Bailey Hutchinson of Texas, is considering legislation that would prohibit the FCC from developing net neutrality rules.
Genachowski’s proposal calls for the FCC to formally adopt four existing principles that have guided the agency’s enforcement of communications laws since 2005. Those principles state that network operators must allow subscribers to access all legal online content, applications, services and devices.
Genachowski is also calling for the FCC to adopt two additional principles that would prevent broadband providers from discriminating against particular content or applications and would require them to be open about their network management practices. And he is calling for the agency to apply these rules across different types of broadband networks, including wireless networks.
