This is the kind of senior citizen I want to be when I grow up - without the lefty politics, of course.

Unknown said...

Man, now I have to catch up! I've only got 35 years to go!

cube said...

nanc: No dsl in the gulag. Just dial-up and the waiting & the screechy sounds will drive you crazy ;-)

jill: Wouldn't you love to have
granny's traffic? I know I would.

I notice that her posts are quite long. Maybe I should turn in the
the terse verse for a more prolix
approach?

That is great. I get so impatient with people who won't get into new things.

Of course I don't have a cell phone, or an ipod, or TIVO, or...

maybe I'm one of them.

lefty politix..ugh!..LOL

cube said...

jan: I like new gadgets that are intuitively easy to use. I hate having to slog through a 2 inch thick manual for each device.

angel: I hear you. You'd think a 95 year old Spaniard, of all people, would've learned the lesson of Cuba and how poorly communism has worked there.

Her spirit is admirable, but how she can pride herself on life-long learning and yet arrive at this conclusion is beyond me.

Gayle said...

Cube, she's 95 years old. She's been set in her ways for a long time. She's evidently willing to learn new things, but not willing to change the mindset that has been hers for most of her life.

I think her posts are too long. She must be saying what a lot of liberals want to hear. That's the only explanation for her high traffic, because for the most part people don't normally read rambling posts. I didn't just make that up. When I first began blogging I read some tips from Blogger. Keeping your posts at a reasonable length was one of their pointers.

Gayle said...

In addition, she gets a lot more traffic than I do. It's possible that blogger is wrong!

cube said...

gayle: I think her blog is a novelty. I mean, how often can you listen to a 95 year old's POV?

People are curious about her life.

Perhaps that's why our blogs don't have that high a level of traffic.

The organization provides one particular [url=http://cungmuagiatot.com/thoi-trang.html]hotdeal gia re[/url] per working day in every single single of the marketplaces it serves. The Groupon operates as an assurance contract making use of ThePoint's system: if a specified quantity of folks signal up for the supply you, then the offer receives presented to all if the predetermined bare least is not fulfilled, no a one will get the deal that operating day. This reduces danger for retailers, who can deal with the discount codes as sum discount rates as effectively as sales marketing methods. Groupon aids make funds by attempting to preserve around fifty % the earnings the customer pays for the coupon.

For occasion, an $eighty therapeutic therapeutic massage could be acquired by the customer for $forty by implies of Groupon, and then Groupon and the retailer would split up the $forty. That is, the retailer offers a therapeutic massage valued at $eighty and gets roughly $20 from Groupon for it (beneath a 50%/fifty% break up). Or, if $240 really worth of home portray suppliers is obtained by the client for $fifty by indicates of Groupon, then the business gets $twenty five and Groupon keeps $25. The buyer receives the therapeutic massage, or the home portray service, in these illustrations, from the retailer for which they at first compensated $forty (or $50) to Groupon. There are particular organizations to which Groupon to start with did not supply its businesses, like using photos ranges and strip golf equipment even so, capturing ranges have been highlighted on Groupon.

As opposed to labeled selling, the service supplier does not spend any upfront cost to consider component: Groupon collects individual data from prepared consumers and then contacts only people purchasers, largely by daily electronic mail, who may probably possibly be fascinated in a specific merchandise or assist.

Groupon employs a substantial assortment of copywriters who draft descriptions for the discount rates showcased by e mail and on the world wide web internet site. Groupon's marketing and advertising textual content for the 'deals' has been seen as a contributing element to the acceptance of the internet site, showcasing a special mix of extensive simple simple fact-inspecting and witty humor.

Owing to Groupon's market spot turning out to be largely composed of female clients, the discounts are normally targeted on the well getting, health and fitness and attractiveness marketplaces.

There are prospective troubles with the business model. For case in point, a successful deal could briefly swamp a small business with also numerous consumers, jeopardizing a chance that customers will be dissatisfied, or that there will not be enough goods to fulfill up with the wish. Hole, a enormous garments retailer, was in a placement to deal with 445,000 discount coupons in a countrywide offer you (although it skilled server problems at 1 particular position), but a scaled-down company could grow to be all of a unexpected flooded with clientele. A single certain espresso shop in Portland, Oregon struggled with an boost in buyers for a handful of months, when it bought shut to 1,000 Groupons on the a single working working day it was supplied, in accordance to a single report. In response to related problems, Groupon officers stage out that 'deal' subscriptions need to be capped in development to a sensible amount.
