BUILDING TRUST

If you were able to build 1,000 or more friends in facebook, it’s a great time to start giving them some information about your product or service. But before you start introducing these services, you have to first build a good relationship with them. In this way they are more confident in trusting you and consider giving interest in whatever you were offering to them. Gaining friends trust is very important in online marketing. The people you’re dealing with here mostly know you only by the every message that they are reading. Building good relationship here may take some time for you, but once you were able to do this, your marketing is much easier.

TAKE ADVANTAGE

If you have built a better relationship with your network of friends, it’s a perfect time to slowly introducing them about your products or services. In facebook message box, you can give a short message to all the people in your network where you can write to let all know what you are currently doing. It’s a great place where you can give information about your services. The strategy of marketing your products in facebook is so powerful. Offering to your network of friends is much easier because you have built a stronger and lasting relationship.

There are also lots of applications you can use in facebook. Take advantage of these great applications for your convenience. Most of these applications are free and some are paid programs. These are tools in which you can boost your marketing strategy to your network and to other members of facebook. The more than 50 million people using facebook were people interested in making friends to other people all over the world.

Best of all joining facebook is “FREE” to all and many applications you can use are also free. It’s free and many are getting really great results in marketing through facebook.

So, if you do not have join yet, sign up now and see for your self what facebook can do for you and to your marketing advantage. It is also said that facebook does have almost as much traffic as Google.com. Dont forget to add me also as one of your friend… :p

In practicality, the toughest part of the sign up involves choosing a name that will be the prefix for your blog’s address. WordPress blogs have domains with the wordpress.com suffix and Blogger blogs have the blogspot.com suffix. You choose the name in front of the suffix. Either way you will have a basic blog ready to go in just a couple of minutes.

About Blogger and WordPress

One of the most widely used blogging platforms, of course, is Blogger by Google. Blogger tends to get indexed in search engines a lot more quickly then other spots; this is because its owned by GOOGLE. With Blogger, you receive your name for free, but it will include a “Blogspot name (example: http://maasincityscandal.blogspot.com ) in the title. You also will have access to its very easily used software, and be able to add free or cheap templates to personalize your account.

WordPress offers free hosted and also self hosted software. WordPress is more for the professional blogger then most blogger programs out there. However, that comes with a price as there are less WordPress designers and it can be tricky, and confusing, if something goes wrong with your site. That is why some called WordPress as a blogging platform for the geek. Always remember to backup of your blog before you start messing around. WordPress comes with hundreds of templates to utilize, that are easily customized by just overwriting the pictures with new ones, or changing the color codes in the CSS template. There are also thousands of plugins to use to customize your blog for whatever your purpose is. From adding in video, to polls, to automatic signatures, its as simple as downloading, adding, and hitting an activate button. What I like about WordPress too, is if something is incompatible, it doesn’t just load it. It shuts off the plug-in and lets you know that it cant be loaded.

Blogging Flexibility

With Blogger.com you can have your own template, with WordPress.com you can not. The reason apparently are related to security concerns. However, the other side of the story is that whatever modifications are possible at WordPress.com, they are a lot cleaner and you do not have to redo it all over again, simply because you decided to change your template. And a lot of additions, deletions in the sidebar are still possible. Creating links in the sidebar, for example. You can simply define the category and add links to them. You won’t have to redo it with a change in template. While with Blogger.com, you must manually change the template code with HTML and then redo it with a template change. Any customization of blogger.com template requires some minimal knowledge of HTML. WordPress.com provides nice interface. But if you just want the control over HTML of your blog, well go for Blogger.com!

Platform Maturity

WordPress.com is under experimentation. That’s why it have a version number. If you do not like to see little surprising changes and little messing up here and there on a daily basis, you would want to wait for sometime before trying to shift. For self-hosted WordPress, you are required once a while to update your WordPress version. You won’t have those problem with Blogger.com Blogger.com is stable and cool that way.

Blog Simplicity (Ease of Use)

It is very easy to use Blogger using the WYSIWYG editor, with previews available before you have to publish the article/template. This is partly due to the fact that Blogger doesn’t have as many options for advanced information management. Blogger has now added many more options for managing a blog including integration with FeedBurner and a drag-and-drop page editor for page elements (gadgets).

WordPress, although easy to write articles, does require amateur knowledge of HTML/CSS (as well as due to it’s many features and menu items), which is one of the reasons which I was more inclined to using Blogger. For all you pro’s though who can handle the messy stuff Wordpress is the way, but being realistic, most of the population doesn’t have a clue about CSS, and WordPress has no preview, so Im afraid that one will have to go to Blogger. And if you are serious about make money from blogging, wasting your time tweaking the HTML code for your blog post is the last thing you want to do.

Adverti$ing on your blog (money making potential)

WordPress.com does not allow third-party ad serving services like AdSense or AdBrite to be present on their blogs. Since Blogger is owned by Google they support AdSense advertising on blogs and include a page element to help ease integration. Since Blogger supports adding javascript from other sites, automatic ad serving from other services should work as well.

Search Engine Optimization and Traffic

There are many stories of getting indexed fast and ranking high in search engines from both Wordpress and Blogger users. As long as the content is good, the spiders will come.

When you post in Blogger, you can only “ping” a limited amount of sites, whereas with Wordpress on your own domain you can ping as many blog directories as you want, and start getting more traffic.

As a conclusion, I would say that WordPress is only slightly ahead in terms of optimization for search engines, and building large amounts of traffic.

Themes and customization

For Blogger, you can edit template layouts, styles and colors, or install a third party theme. This can be done by adding JavaScript pagelet or gadgets.

WordPress doesn’t allow template editing. Style sheet editing is only available as a paid upgrade. Many of the 60+ themes let you upload a header image. Some have additional customization options. To add things, WordPress allowed you to include pre-built plugins.

Visitor stats
” class=”aligncenter size-full wp-image-4570″ />

Blogger has no built stats. Since it is owned by Google and you have a Google account, you can check your detailed blog stats from Google Analytical. You can also include third party tracker scripts — or any type of script.

WordPress doesn’t allowed scripts. The admin dashboard shows 2 days of stats and daily, weekly and monthly graphs. Side track a little bit, with no script allowed, you will not be able to monetised your blog unless you use the paid version of WordPress.

Blog Import Features

Blogger can import posts only from another BlogSpot blog. WordPress meanwhile allow you to import from Blogger, Type·Pad, Live·JournaI, MovabIe·Type or another WordPress blog.

Image storage

Blogger gives 1 Gigabyte for images space. There is no interface to browse through the images unless you sign up for Picasa Web Albums. WordPress gives 3 Gigabytes. Paid upgrades are available to add more space. You can also upload .ppt, .doc and .pdf files (more file types with an upgrade).

Photo Galleries

Blogger – You can use Picasa Web Albums.
WorPress – Simply add the tag

to any post or page (more info)

NOTE: For a photo galleries site, blogging platform either Blogger and WordPress are both not suitable. This is because for photo galleries, you may want your own artistic presentation and neat tricks to show off your photos. In short, Blogger and WordPress are not specialized in photo galleries.

Static pages

Blogger does not support static pages. All post are chronically order by date. That is the basic nature of blog – an event driven publishing of articles.
WordPress – Create posts or ‘pages’. Static pages are listed in separate menus.

Categories

Blogger called it’Labels’. And WordPress called it ‘Categories’.

Optional excerpts

Optional excerpts is not available in Blogger. Closer to it would be using Block Quote.
WordPress – Some themes allow unique text. Others depend on a “more” tag.

Post by email

Blogger allow you to submit posts by email. You can receive new posts by email too (helpful for team blogs). Post by email is not available for WordPress.

Blog Syndication

WordPress.com offers standard RSS feeds and includes native support for podcast enclosures. Blogger offers the less popular Atom syndication format. While RSS is the standard for syndication, many feed aggregators can also handle Atom feeds (just to satisfy Google, so syndication is not an issue for Blogger). In addition, services like Feedburner offer options to convert the feed to all usable formats and standards for RSS. WordPress offers RSS feeds for comments which is a feature not available via the Blogger service.

Google purchased FeedBurner in June of 2007 and now offers feed redirection so that you may use FeedBurner or other services to manage your Blogger RSS.

Contact forms

Contact forms is not available in Blogger. You could add a third-party contact form, however.
For WordPress, simply add the tag [contact-form] to any post or page.

Private blogs

For Blogger, you can restrict access to invited Google account holders or make the blog entirely private. With WordPress, you can restrict access to 35 invited WordPress account holders (unlimited with a paid upgrade). Alternatively, individual posts can be password protected or Private.

Team blogs or Team Blogging

Blogger only support Administrators and non-administrators only. With WordPress, you can multiply roles such as Administrator, Editors, Authors and Contributors. Actually not relevant if you blog on a one-man show capacity.

Comments or commenting

Blogger -Visual confirmation and moderation options, but no editing of comments to be fair.
WordPress – Moderation, comment editing and Akismet spam protection.

Publishing Location

WordPress saves the content of your blog on their servers. Blogger allows you the option of publishing the pages to your own server via FTP. This allows you to fully host the blog with your own domain name, eliminating the need to use one of the blogspot.com addresses. Some businesses may find this to be a plus if they want to have the blog seem completely integrated within their company website.

Wordpress.com now has the option to redirect your blog to a domain of your choosing. The files will still be published on WordPress.com but visitors will see your web address instead of one with ‘.worpdress.com’ at the end.

Blog Widgets

Blogger.com Widgets – Add a Gadget | Followers | Blog List | Subscription Links | Slideshow |
Newsreel | Video Bar | List | Link List [Blog Roll] | Picture | Text | HTML/JavaScript |
AdSense | Feed | Labels [categories] | Logo | Profile | Page Header | Blog Archive | Poll

Wordpress.com Widgets – Akismet | Archives | Blog Stats | Box.net file sharing | Calendar | Categories | del.icio.us | Flickr | Links | Meebo | Meta | Pages | Platial MapKit | Recent Comments | Recent Posts | RSS | Search | Sonific Songspot | Tag Cloud | Text | Top Clicks | Top Posts | Vod:Pod Videos | Twitter

Theme choices (Blog Templates)

Although the WordPress.com collection of 60+ themes sounds like a lot, many of them are quite disappointing. Two of the themes are specifically for the Christmas season, and of the remainder, a significant proportion are gaudy or tacky.

If you don’t like any of the BlogSpot themes you can modify them or install third party themes.

NOTE: Those cool and professional WordPress template that you encountered are done by seasoned blogger who know how to trick the template internals and configurations.

Copyrights and Ownership of Content

Google has the authority to shut down your Blogger account without warning if they don’t like what you’re blogging about. You don’t have absolute control over your own blog. But rest assure, all blogspot blogs are maintained clean and safe.

With Wordpress, you own the domain name and the blog is hosted on your own account. You have full control over your content.

With the self-hosted version of Wordpress (not Wordpress.com), you’re free to write about anything you want, and use the software in any way you want. Yes, Blogger allows you to publish to your own domain, but they still own the database that holds your content! Don’t forget that!

HTML Coding

If you are a webmaster or familiar with HTML, Blogger allows you to embed CSS in your blog HTML codes.

FTP Connection

Both Blogger and WordPress support FTP connection but Blogger seems to lag behind in performance and reliability as far as FTP uploading is concerned.

Conclusion

The best advice for you (especially if you are a beginner) now is to take the time to start a test blog on both services. Work with both of them for a couple of weeks to see which one suits your needs best. Once you have made a decision on a favored platform you’ll also have the advantage of some time in the driver’s seat before you get into the blogging fast lane.

Both of these services have made great strides over the last couple of years. There is still no clear ‘winner’ if you will. But so long as Google is still alive, Blogger will be surely gain advantage over WordPress. It is just a matter of time before we see a shift in this blogging war. So as for me, I’ll stay on safer ground.

Other bloggers say that you shouldn’t blog daily. They say that it’s impossible to post an article a day and still have quality content. It’s better to have quality than quantity. Plus, readers won’t be able to keep up with seven articles a week anyway.
The truth is: it’s up to you. Only you and your readers have a say in how many time you should blog. No one else. Why? What might work for a particular blog, might not work for you. You should be making this decision for yourself. However, keep in mind two important factors when you do: your readers, your visitors and your limitations.
There are two things that are scarce in this world: time and money. Keep in mind that this applies to your readers and visitors also. Ask yourself, “Does my target audience have the time to read my articles daily?” or “Will they get overwhelmed with information?”. If you’re content schedule is overwhelming to your audience, each post will become less effective, and less important to your readers.

Now that you decided, carry your plan out. This doesn’t mean that the testing will stop. Continue to adapt your blog to your readers and to your own circumstances. How can you carry out your plan effectively?
I know that Im still a new blogger, I was caught up in what some said was the way to blogging success. However, as time goes by, you learn and start to find a rhythm that’s comfortable for you.

However, just like what I’ve heard in the radio today, this kind of revolution, though peaceful and have changed the tyrant government, like Pres. Marcos, is nothing if we did not have the change that we are looking for, the change in the government and the change of the social and economic standings in the Philippines. But, though there are changes (President have been changed, “some” of the government officials have been removed and changed) but the poverty is still there, crimes that are crying for justice are still there, corruption in the government that is eating our society like cancer is still there. Yes, revolution is all we need for a change. But we need also to search in our souls even as an ordinary countrymen, are we really involved in the revolution or we are just playing along with what the majority of the Filipino people are playing, with what some of the government officials are saying.

I believe its better to find the change within ourselves in order to have major changes in the society, in the government, of the people, by the people for the people, thank you, hehe.
Well, I don’t have to go to EDSA tomorrow or anywhere else to show my patriotic side of me. I think I need to be more involved with my family first, family values, the local community and then eventually, the national community. And whatever we do, it’ll be our own responsibility alone.

Quite frankly, nowadays we can hardly find a company that is true to their commitment! All they want is GRAB people’s trust and money, and then when times get rough, RUN AWAY!

On a second thought, I am hopeful that there would certainly be companies that might be exceptional. So, taking a look and getting to know Xecor would then be a wise thing to do!

I then began browsing their site… First stop, I was impressed by their product; it’s something I personally need. Another good point is, their compensation plan is fair enough!

As I continued navigating through Xecor, I found no-fault in their business. And right now, they are still on its pre-launch stage. That is why as of this time, they are yet accepting pre-enrollees only.

However, what struck me is while you are a pre-enrollee you can also invite other pre-enrollees. The many pre-enrollees you can bring in until the launching date, the better chance of winning a $100 prize per day.

Come to think of it! Do you think somebody who is not serious can provide this amazing strategy? Why would someone give away his money on your pre-enrollees? Well, this is a good point to ponder upon…

And while they still are on its way to the formal launching, this is the BEST time to get a spot in their placement structure! You can possibly do that by BECOMING a Pre- Enrollee RIGHT NOW!

Xecor is something to look forward to. Xecor could be one of your best Internet wealth providers… Jump up and move forward!

The launch date is coming fast. Start building your organization now at zero cost and make a profit on it.

Grab your free position now! and put ikogsakanding as your referrer…

To your success!

1.Page Title Tag

Carefully plan your title tag of pages.The keyword your plan to rank higher in google must appear within first three words of the title.

for ex :Blog For Noob

2.Submit a Sitemap.

Sitemap is a type of xml file where a list of all your site pages are stored.Google crawler loves this file.

You can create a site map of your pages without writing a line of code by using sitemap generator utility at http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/.

3.Optimize your image

Now that google can not see what you have written inside your beautiful photoshopped image.You can do two things

i)Use Alt tags of image to describe your image.
ii)Keep the name of the image file Keyword targetted i.e Barrack_Obama_first_speech.jpg

4.Use Tool Tips

Its my personal experience that tooltips used inside html tags also boost Google Ranking if your use some keywords you want to target for.

5.Content Formatting

Try to put your content title within H1 tags , use bold tags (keyword).
Do not stuff too many keywords unnecessarily.

It is seen that 3% of keywords should be used for every 500 word article.

6.Join Google Webmaster Tools

This site by google has alot of information and tools for SEO.It also displays what your site errors are and what need to be done.

7.Optimize HTML comments

You should not forget to write your keywords inside HTML comments.Most web-masters use this trick.

8.Use Meta Keyword and Description

Meta Description will appear below Title when someone searches site in google.Meta-description should be such that it draws attention of surfers.

But did you know that the origin of Valentine’s Day, or Saint Valentine’s Day, comes from the life and death of a Christian martyr? According to author Martha Zimmerman, the date traditionally celebrated as St. Valentine’s Day finds it origin in the Roman festival of romance called Lupercalia, when the gods Juno and Pan were honored. It was a fertility festival or a lover’s holiday looking forward to the return of Spring. In the fifth century, in an attempt to abolish the pagan festival, Pope Gelasius changed Lupercalia and its February 15 date to February 14 and called it Saint Valentine’s Day. Even though the names and the date were changed, the emphasis continued to be on love.

Think you know everything about Valentine’s Day? Here are 10 facts that you might not be aware of:

• More than half the Valentine’s Day cards that are bought are purchased in the week right before the holiday. It’s a great day for procrastinators everywhere.

• There are more single men than women, so finding a date on that special day can be tough.

• There are over one hundred and eighty-eight million Valentine’s Day cards sold each year.

• If you’re 65 or older, female and single, there are only thirty-four men for every 100 of you, so good luck.

• There are more than 900 dating establishments throughout America to help you find that special someone.

• More than twelve hundred chocolate and candy-producing factories exist.

• In a day, about six thousand marriages take place.

• Each person eats an average of almost twenty-six pounds of candy each year.

• There are around twenty-two thousand florists in the US where you can get your sweetie some flowers.

• If jewelry is your thing, there are nearly twenty-nine thousand stores nationwide, so you’re sure to find something you like.

0

Not everyone is creative when it comes to love, but there are all kinds of different and unique things you can do to show someone you care. If you’re lost as to how to spend Valentine’s Day, here are ten suggestions for you:

1. Take the entire day off. Devote it to one another.

2. Have another honeymoon. Even if it’s only in your local area and for a night, you can make it memorable.

3. Break the rules and celebrate all week long. Do something romantic and different each day.

4. Be kids again. Get some boxes of kid’s valentine cards and write romantic notes to each other.

5. Have a romantic movie marathon with your favorite foods to snack on.

6. Head off for some private time with a romantic game. There are many of them available.

7. Serve your significant other breakfast in bed.

8. Shower your bedroom in rose petals.

9. Plan a cozy lunch at a romantic restaurant, but make sure that you book your table in advance to avoid standing in line.

10. Have dinner at home by the fireplace, or light candles and have romantic music.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY DEAR READERS!!!! ENJOY YOUR DAY!!!

Actually there are lots of reason why people choose to become a blogger. As a blogger, you have numberless options to monetize your blog. You can also find direct advertising options as well as affiliate offers. There are many ways you can create using a little of your creativity and innovation. There is one thing left for all of your great strategies to work-the ‘big T’. If you guessed the big T to be traffic you are right!

So how you can make money through blogging? Let’s say you have a good traffic coming in to your blog. If you are new in this business, pay-per-post,reviews and sponsored posts are the best choices.

Right now, “microblogging” is the technological term du jour. Twitter this; Twitter that.Google this;Google that!

For some reason, once somebody created a Web site that told us we couldn’t type more than 140 characters, we couldn’t resist the challenge. It’s as though we were dared to share our most inane thoughts.

The birth of the pointless Tweet was born, also known as “I’m eating string cheese and watching reruns of ALF!”

But remember a few years ago, when “blog” was the word you couldn’t escape? Magazine covers were devoted to blogs. What does “blog” mean? Is it going to kill traditional media? Who should be blogging? Why do we care what you’re blogging?

Now, blogs are something more akin to traditional (but still new) media.

5 Reasons Why Blogging Matters More Than Ever

1. It brings ideas out to the public – a lot of people have some pretty unique perspectives. Now, we all get a chance to hear those ideas and explore them.

2. You can get something off your chest – imagine if violence in the world went away because more and more people used their Blogs to express themselves (good, bad and ugly)?

3. There are multiple truths – the old saying, “there are three sides to every story” obviously came out long before Blogging. We know there are millions of truths (aren’t there?).

4. New ideas – A lot of Blogs are riffs on other people’s ideas, but once in a while you come across something new, brilliant and beautiful – knowing full-well that this idea would never had seen the light of day if mainstream media was the only place you could publish your idea for the world to see.

5. Different perspectives – probably one of the most amazing things about a Blog – all the various voices from different parts of the world, and how they all flow and groove together. Blogging breaks down cultural and geographical borders. Is there anything more fascinating than alternative opinions?

So if you are planning to have a blog, and cant decide what blog platform you choose whether its Wordpress, Blogspot, Jopal, Thumblr or other more… its up to you who can decide…. Visit my post about Wordpress Vs Blogger…

The chief curator of the planned Sept. 11 museum pronounced the pictures “a phenomenal body of work.”
The photos are “absolutely core to understanding the visual phenomena of what was happening,” said Jan Ramirez of the National September 11 Memorial & Museum. They are “some of the most exceptional images in the world, I think, of this event.”
In some of the pictures, the tops of the nearby Woolworth Building and other skyscrapers can just be seen above the enormous cloud of debris, gray against a clear blue sky. Gray clouds billow through the streets of the financial district and shroud the 16 acres where the towers had stood just moments before.
Buildings can hardly be seen at all in one image — just dust clouds hanging over the Hudson River at the southern tip of Manhattan.
One close-up shows orange flames and black smoke pouring from the upper floors of the north tower, the first hit by a hijacked plane.

Most people who develop mesothelioma have worked on jobs where they inhaled asbestos particles, or they have been exposed to asbestos dust and fiber in other ways. It has also been suggested that washing the clothes of a family member who worked with asbestos can put a person at risk for developing mesothelioma.Unlike lung cancer, there is no association between mesothelioma and smoking, but smoking greatly increases the risk of other asbestos-induced cancers.Compensation via asbestos funds or lawsuits is an important issue in mesothelioma (see asbestos and the law).

Mesothelioma Lawyers - Exposure to asbestos has been linked to a deadly form of cancer known as mesothelioma. When asbestos fibers are inhaled or otherwise ingested, they can become lodged in the lining of the lungs, heart or abdomen, where they may lead to a mesothelioma diagnosis. Although it can take up to 50 years after asbestos exposure to develop mesothelioma, patients may only live for a few short years after learning that they have the disease.

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that has been used as insulation or heat-resistant coating in many commercial and industrial products, including building insulation, shipbuilding, pipes and boilers, automotive parts and other products. Because of the link between asbestos and mesothelioma, the federal government has placed restrictions on how asbestos can be used. However, asbestos is still legal, and can still be commonly found in these and other products.

Never let it be said that Steve Ballmer doesn’t have a sense of humour. Nor that Nashville students don’t have cojones. Because it takes a brave man to ask the Microsoft boss to sign his computer, when said computer is blatantly a MacBook Pro.

The big question: is the MacBook worth more or less than it was before?

A cross-platform jailbreaking, unlocking, and customizing tool for iPhones and iPod touches. Customizations include boot logos, recovery logos, and “verbose” boot. It’s a standalone program that doesn’t use iTunes (no custom IPSWs are involved).

The download links are at the bottom of this page (but please read the whole page anyway!).

We’ve been offering redsn0w in various incarnations over the years (including poorlad’s Windows version of QuickPwn). The most recent release before this one was redsn0w 0.8, which targeted Apple firmware 3.0/3.0.1.

What devices, platforms, and FW versions are supported?

The beta supports:

■All iPhones and iPod touches except the iPod touch 3G
■Windows and Mac OSX (x86)
■Apple firmware 3.0 and 3.1.2
When it’s out of beta, it will support the iPod touch 3G, PPC OSX, and Linux.

If you need a carrier unlock, redsn0w will handle iPhone 2G by itself (by installing our BootNeuter utility). For the 3G and 3GS, use Cydia after you’re jailbroken to install ultrasn0w (baseband 04.26, preferred) or blacksn0w (baseband 05.11).

How is it different from PwnageTool?

redsn0w doesn’t require a system restore like PwnageTool does (it doesn’t even use iTunes at all). On the other hand, PwnageTool can prevent your baseband from being upgraded when you upgrade your firmware, preserving your unlock. (redsn0w doesn’t touch your baseband but it doesn’t help preserve it during an upgrade either).

redsn0w works by modifying your current filesystem, so your existing baseband, data and applications should remain intact.

How is it different from blackra1n?

It differs from blackra1n because:

■It uses our original Pwnage bootrom exploit for iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, and iPod 1G. (Because it’s a bootrom exploit, it can’t be fixed by Apple without a new hardware release.) Note that redsn0w 0.9 does use the USB exploit for iPhone 3GS and iPod 2G running 3.1.2, but that exploit will be fixed in Apple’s next FW release.
■It offers custom logos and verbose boot
■It installs Cydia without needing a separate download
■It’s not as fast (but redsn0w handles more variations )

What if I have a late-model device?

If you have a late-model iPhone 3GS, or if you have an iPod touch 2G whose serial number begins with “MC”, you can use redsn0w to jailbreak but you are currently restricted to “tethered” rebooting. That means you need to connect your device to a computer to complete the boot after a reset. Also, these devices cannot have custom logos.

redsn0w will ask you whether or not you fit in this category when used with the iPhone 3GS or iPod touch 2G. If you have a late-model device and don’t give redsn0w the correct answer, you will likely need to do a system restore to recover from the mistake.

To do a tethered boot after your late-model device resets for some reason, either run redsn0w again and select “Just boot tethered right now”, or run blackra1n.

What if I’m already jailbroken?

If you’re already jailbroken (by whatever means), redsn0w can still be used to change your boot logos, revert back to the stock logos, or switch verbose booting on and off. By selecting “Already Pwned” you can bypass the steps normally needed to enter the jailbroken state.

How long should it take

You should see a picture of a drive (“Downloading Jailbreak Data”) within 30 seconds of launching the jailbreak (after you’ve made your custom selections). It should then reboot and you should see a running pwnapple while the process is underway. It should finish within a minute or two after that, and will reboot on its own.

Is it safe?

The Windows version has been tested by small groups of volunteers on IRC and . This is still a beta and if things go wrong you may have to do a system restore…so make sure your data and pictures are synced before trying the beta.
