			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Apple iPhone has been approved for sale in South Korea. The country’s telecom regulators approved the sale of the eagerly anticipated device in a meeting of its’ five commissioners.</p>
<p>The South Korean cellular phone market is largely dominated by local companies like LG Electronics Inc. and Samsung Electronics Inc. The introduction of the icon will probably shake up the local market and Apple can expect stiff competition from the domestic cellular phone manufacturing industry.</p>
<p>This development is seen as an expansion of Apple Inc’s Asian market ambitions like its entrance to China’s massive cellular phone market through China Unicom</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is already a given fact that selling stuff online is one of the best ways you can earn the big bucks. However, you would also need to do your own marketing here, which isn&#8217;t exactly a piece of cake especially for beginners.</p>
<p>So, what should you do? The most common answer would be to create a buzz. By doing this, you&#8217;d also be stirring up the curiosity of other potential buyers. But how can you do it? Here are some simple steps:</p>
<p>1. Hold out a competition where your product is the prize for the winners.</p>
<p>This is one of the most famous and effective techniques of all time. For example, you can offer 20 free samples of your product for the ones that will share, through the comment box, their heaviest problem they have that would need your product to solve it.</p>
<p>This can make anyone interested in your product instantly write his or her issue right away. And then, after a couple of days, just when you already have a couple of hundred comments on your page, you should now announce that you are overwhelmed with the response, so you&#8217;ll just offer your product now for a discounted price: the first couple of people who will email you can get them up to half price off. Some of your readers may still feel hesitant, but once they see the hundreds of responses your promo has gotten, surely a lot more will now want your product.</p>
<p>2. Create a buzz using different social networking sites.<br />
This is the very reason why Twitter, Facebook, and various blogs are essential when you&#8217;re online marketing. You can go ask your friends to tweet about it, and just plainly mention your product on their blogs. And then, write another post on how overwhelmed you are with the responses on your previous post. This will redirect your new readers to the competition page, making them see how much in demand your product is.</p>
<p>3. Always assess your market correctly.<br />
For example, your product is not that popular yet, so you should start with small numbers instead. Instead of twenty, start with five to ten.</p>
<p>If these methods are done correctly, your sales will surely skyrocket, letting you really earn tons from your online business.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are one of those Facebook users who love to challenge their typing speed, then Typing Maniac is the application you need to try.</p>
<p>Typing Maniac is not your ordinary typing game. It neither calculate your typing speed, nor tell you how many words per minute can you type. But, it does challenge you to finish as many levels as you can, and compare your scores with your friends, or with the other Facebook users.</p>
<p>On your first try of this game, you might get a very low score, and even be surprised to see your friends&#8217; high scores. I wonder how will you feel seeing the world record.</p>
<p>Well, if you know the rules, and you are a fast typer, you will easily get through this game and get high scores.</p>
<h2>How to play the game?</h2>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-86" title="typing maniac" src="http://www.socialupdates.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/typing-300x273.jpg" alt="typing maniac" width="300" height="273" /></p>
<p>The rules of  <a href="http://apps.facebook.com/typing-maniac">Typing Maniac</a> are simple. While the tiles are going down, just type as many words as you can before the tiles reach the bottom. If you complete a level without any errors you get bonus points.</p>
<p>There are colored tiles though, which you should not avoid. Once you know how to use them, these colored tiles are your best friends in this game. They are the power-ups that will help you level up.</p>
<p>So how do you get and use these special tiles? First, you need to type the word in the colored tiles. The blue tile corresponds to ICE. The red tile corresponds to FIRE. The yellow is for SLOW, and purple is for WIND. If you have typed the word right in the colored tile, the special tile would go to the container at the right side. The tile sits there until you use it.</p>
<p>When you want to use them, just type the word FIRE, ICE, SLOW, or WIND. (You don&#8217;t need to capitalize. I just made it caps lock to emphasize.)</p>
<ul>
<li>FIRE burns all the tiles currently on the screen. This helps if the tiles are almost at the bottom and you cannot type them all.</li>
<li>ICE freezes the tiles on the screen within a few seconds. It allows you then to type as many words as you can while it the tiles are frozen.</li>
<li>SLOW slows down the speed of the tiles going down.</li>
<li>WIND brings back your error percentage back to zero, but your accuracy is still 0%. Wind will help you a lot complete the higher, faster levels.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can only keep 6 tiles in the container, so plan what you want to keep. Some users keep 3 ICE and 3 WIND most of the time in higher levels. Some keep 3 SLOW and 3 WIND.</p>
<h2>Can you cheat?</h2>
<p>Yes you can. Some users were able to cheat in this game. However, I don&#8217;t recommend this. What&#8217;s the point of playing the game?</p>
