Dear friends,

You have my appreciation for your tireless efforts to keep me up to date with your super cool web links. I have a modest gift back

How to make your link tempting

A link is a message that you want to convey to your trusted recipients. Sending a naked link is equivalent to sending raw, meaningless bytes of data. It’s better to treat your message in grace!

I’d advise to include a subject/description/abstract of the information contained within the link.

The additional information determines whether a non-free recipient would open the link. My apologize I tend to ignore naked links when boiled under all the pressure.

The subject should be

Meaningful
Relevant to the recipient or the relationship between the sender (you) with the recipient
Descriptive and informative
Silly-free. Subjects like “this is hot” or “come in to see” are what I consider silly
Wherever possible, include language-specific notations. For example, you would want to type Vietnamese with accents.
Avoid virus-like tempting invitations. BTW, most of virus invitations I received recently are stupid if not even, pardon me, illiterate.

By adding the advised information, you have made your link from raw data to becoming meaningful, human-friendly information.

Above is a simple tip in the form of a quick fix. Now, I guess you’d love to you’re your message personalized.

An all-but-trendily-crazy-word: blog it!

Societies realized the power of blogs. People read and comment blogs. The best way of republishing a message in your own personalized, characterized way is to blog it with your own analysis, reflection, evaluation, and solutions where appropriate.

By blogging, you have transformed the human-connecting information into powerful individual-in-a-solid-community knowledge.

Utilize web services to their best. Knowledge sharing, not data transmitting!
