this wiki
Link Joker (リンクジョーカー Rinku Jōkā) is a clan from the nation of Star Gate which first debuted in Trial Deck 11: Star-Vader Invasion. Link Joker is the avatar of Void, the evil force attacking Planet Cray in seasons 2 and 3. The units in this clan feature black rings with red auras. They focus on locking your opponent's rear-guards, and gain benefits from doing so.
In the anime, Link Joker is responsible for Reverse, a phenomenon that causes Vanguard players to lose their soul and become possessed by Void. Reversed players, players affected by Void in this way, can reverse other players by beating them in a cardfight. Reversed players use either Link Joker decks or decks based around a Яeverse unit, a unit corrupted by Link Joker.
In Season 3, this clan is primarily used by Toshiki Kai and the reversed Takuto Tatsunagi. Suiko Tatsunagi also uses Link Joker while reversed.
In Season 4, Aichi Sendou ,Kourin Tatsunagi and Raul Cera use this clan in the anime.
Kouji Ibuki uses this clan in Cardfight!! Vanguard Movie: Neon Messiah focusing on the Deletors sub-clan.

The state of Minnesota will be getting a check from Gov. Mark Dayton.
On Wednesday, Dayton took the state plane to get to Bemidji, Minnesota. Once there his plan was to do some campaigning and also to do some official business.
Given the split between state and political work, Dayton plans to have his campaign reimburse the state for half of the $3,312 cost of flying to the north central Minnesota outpost, according to his spokeswoman Katharine Tinucci.
Update on Thursday: Tinucci said Dayton's campaign will pay $2,118 to reflect the use of the plane for a leg of the trip that was campaign only. After the Bemidji stops, the governor also went to a DFL fish fry in International Falls.
Dayton's use of the state plane drew some attention from Republicans on Twitter.
"12:52 - State plane lands in Bemidji. 1:16 -[Dayton] arrives at DFL campaign rally," wrote Kevin Watterson, media services director for the Minnesota House Republicans.
"Wonder if [Dayton] will thank the taxpayers of MN for picking up the tab for his plane ride to a Bemidji campaign rally" added Andrew Wagner, a field staffer for the House Republican campaign committee.

St. Louis Cardinals (40-32)@
Toronto Blue Jays (39-34)
Thursday, June 24
Rogers Centre
Attendance: 12,392
Game Leaders
L: Wainwright
(10-5) 2.47 era
W: Morrow
(5-5) 4.50 era

Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - Brandon Morrow pitched eight strong innings, and Vernon Wells slugged a pair of home runs, as Toronto avoided a three-game sweep by the Cardinals with a 5-0 win.
Morrow (5-5) allowed just five hits, walked one and struck out eight. He has alternated wins in losses in all 10 of his decisions this season.
"I've kind of been in that cruise mode where I've been able to figure out an intensity level," Morrow said. "If I get into a jam I can turn it up a little bit or dial it back down when I get out of trouble or start an inning."
Wells drove in three runs and now has 18 homers on the year. Adam Lind also homered and finished 2-for-4 as the Blue Jays halted a three-game skid.
Adam Wainwright (10-5) had his shortest outing of the year, tagged for five runs -- four earned -- on six hits in four innings as St. Louis lost for just the second time in six games.
"When he made mistakes most of the time with two strikes, it left the park," Cardinals manager Tony La Russa said. "It was just one of those days he doesn't have very often, but it happened today."
The Jays got to Wainwright right away, courtesy of two first-inning homers.
Jose Bautista started the two-out rally with a base hit and Wells ripped a hanging changeup to left for the first of his two longballs. Lind then lifted one over the center field wall to make it back-to-back and 3-0.
An Aaron Miles error opened the door for a fourth run in the next inning. Jose Molina doubled Lyle Overbay over to third following the miscue and Fred Lewis came through with a sacrifice fly.
Toronto continued to tee off on Wainwright in the third as Wells clubbed another home run to left for a 5-0 game.
Morrow avoided trouble in the sixth when Matt Holliday doubled with two down and Albert Pujols put runners at the corners after a base hit. Colby Rasmus went down swinging to end the threat.
St. Louis went in order in the seventh and got only a Felipe Lopez two-out double the rest of the way. Shawn Camp threw a spotless ninth to wrap things up.

I'm getting ready to upload my first template and I need to clarify how I can link to videos and video thumbnails for my preview. Is it ok to link to YouTube and Vimeo directly, or do I need to put the thumbnails on my own hosting server? (obviously not the acutal video files ; )
Now, regarding the actual files that the customer will purchase and download, should I strip the HTML and PHP files of all of the thumbnail links and video links pointing to YouTube and Vimeo?
And since we're on the subject, should I just use a generic .jpg for all of the thumbnails and photos in my Photo gallery?
Sorry if this was answered in the forums already, I looked but couldn't find anything.

It's always a good practice in my opinion to use thumbnails for video (just in case he browser for some reason can't display video). Also, this depends on the method you are using to show your videos (are these HTML5 videos that are shown in HTML5 player or maybe videos are showed in lightbox…)..

Instant Decorating Upgrades With Old Linens
Turn an Old Pillowcase Into a Smock
What you need: A pillowcase, two 16-inch pieces of ribbon, scissors, a pencil, and a ruler.
What you do:
1. For the neck hole, cut a shallow scoop (about 10 inches long and 2 inches deep at its center) from the middle of the closed top edge of the pillowcase. Make sure your child's head fits through the hole, and adjust if necessary.
2. For the armholes, cut another shallow scoop (about 5½ inches long and ½ inch deep at its center) from each long edge of the pillowcase, starting an inch or so below the top edge.
3. Thread a piece of ribbon into each armhole and out the neck. Tie bows, gathering the fabric a bit. More than a decorative touch, the ribbons will help keep the smock from slipping off your child's shoulders.
Also works with: Two bath towels. Just add a few simple sewing steps, or use the button technique from the Turn a Dish Towel Into an Apron.

Fear and liquidity in the high-yield market
August 19th, 2014
Junk bond funds are seeing record outflows. This has been described as a 'six-sigma event', in other words, six standard deviations away from the mean weekly flow, something that if normally distributed should only be expected once in millions of years.
By definition that's unusual, but in the context of broader investment in riskier corporate debt, how significant is it? Let's start by looking at exchange-traded funds that invest in junk bonds. This is the most liquid segment of the market, and market leader Blackrock has spoken of using ETFs to replace traditional bond investing. Since 2011, $26 billion has flooded into high-yield ETFs, $11.5 billion of that in the 12-month period up to July this year (this is based on the biggest 35 junk bond ETFs on Bloomberg).
In the last five weeks up to 8 August, that trend went into reverse, with outflows of $4.2 billion (contributing to the numbers reported in the last two weeks). Although that's more than 10 per cent of total high-yield ETF investment, in the broader context things look different.
The point is that all the additional demand for high-yield ETFs as evidenced from two and a half years of inflows has been easily absorbed by increased supply. Consider the index behind the most popular junk ETF, the iShares iBoxx corporate bond ETF, best known by its ticker, HYG. The underlying index, the Markit iBoxx high-yield bond index, gathers together all dollar-denominated corporate junk bonds with a face value above $400 million.
Since the start of 2012, the number of iBoxx high-yield index constituents has more than doubled to about 960, and the total face value of the index increased by a similar magnitude from $376 to $808 billion, according to Markit.
During this period the amount of new corporate bond issuance has been nothing short of staggering. Consider this statistic based on SIFMA's data: by the end of this year (assuming current volumes persist) there will have been a greater face value of high-yield bonds issued in the last three years than over the entire decade leading up to 2008.
With this flood of new issuance, the proportion of high-yield bonds owned by ETFs hasn't increased. The retail investor can't even keep up with the volume hitting the market. And yet somehow the yield of the iBoxx index declined from 7.8 per cent to 5 per cent over the same period, indicating that buyers outnumber sellers.
While non-ETF mutual fund inflows account for some of that spread decline, I suspect most of the demand comes from traditional fixed income investors such as insurance companies and pension funds. Just four US insurance companies alone – AIG, MetLife, Prudential and New York Life – own $44 billion of high-yield bonds. That's more than all ETFs put together. These kinds of investors don't have to mark their holdings to market unless they become impaired.
And these four insurers pale in comparison with banks whose portfolios are heavily stuffed with high-yield bonds and loans. Consider Deutsche Bank, which held $72 billion of below-investment grade corporate bonds and $95 billion worth of junk-quality corporate loans in 2013 according to its annual report. That's more than four times the bank's core equity tier 1 capital.
It will be interesting to see the impact of recent volatility on Deutsche's VaR numbers. Fortunately for Deutsche Bank, the loans don't have to be marked to market. These risky assets, funded by cheap central bank liquidity, pay fat yields that pad the bank's profits. While the bank holds credit risk capital against the loans calculated according to some internal model, I doubt that model includes the volatility of the high-yield ETF market as an input.
However, the high-yield market turmoil has coincided with reports that banks are offering derivatives-based products to customers that provide them with synthetic exposure to junk bonds and loans using total-return swaps. Sound familiar? If a bank decides that a market is becoming riskier and decides to hedge, usually the first to know is the customer asked to take the other side of the trade.

Some Guy Switches Linux Distributions!
by chromatic
Apparently some guy switched from one Linux distribution to another, throws a fit, and this is news.
Hey, I've tried lots of distributions in the past ten years. Does anyone remember Caldera?
Anyway, the important thing in that guy's rant may be if he raised important issues that Fedora needs to consider.

You're focusing on only one incidental aspect of this guy's reasons for switching.
2007-02-22 07:59:28
|Some guy? Really? Wasn't "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" pretty important to O'Reilly? Isn't it notable that someone who was faithful to a distro for a dozen years hit a pothole (installs and upgrades, not the codecs issue) big enough to overcome his inertia?
2007-02-22 09:46:34
@simon and @Brianary, I figure that any member of the "Senior Technical Cadre who Runs the Internet" is capable of reporting bugs that serious. It's not as if you can accidentally run the testing branch of any distribution.

|Next thing he'll be whinging about is how it should be FC 6. Not FC6. Nah, no one's that annoying.

I certainly do remember Caldera. It was a good distro before they bought SCO and turned to the dark side.

|The rpm and yum issues aside (these are obviously the drivers behind ESR's switch), I personally don't know how any Linux distro thinks it is going to change the habits of consumers when it doesn't offer them what they want. In this case a computer operating system that isn't barred from legally watching encrypted DVDs or playing MP3s. Then once you have a market share of say 40% on the consumer desktop, you can start to push people in the free formats direction, but you can't do that with a market share of 1%, nobody will have even heard of you, let alone your obscure non encumbered formats. There will need to be some education of users, but they won't listen to you until they are using your software. That is the long and short of it. Luckily with open source you can have your cake and eat as well!!! There will always be "pure" open source distros and besides, as far as I know all distros would prefer people to use free formats, even when they do make proprietary options available.
2007-03-24 03:35:41
I would refer to ESR as "some guy", because he's done sod-all other than writing a document. Look at the code he's done, and it's things that any Uni student could do in their sleep.
2007-05-02 12:43:39
|I always found it interesting that the "guy" in question failed to test his upgrade on test box before commiting it to his production laptop. If this "guy" had spent any time in the "Cathedral" of mainframe operations/programming he would understand that you test before you commit updates in a production environment... But I guess that is "old skol", and shouldn't apply to today's, shoot-from-the-hip, Open Source movement...

Learn all about the Psalms in this thorough work by F. B. Meyer.
In PC Study Bible, this work can be opened both as a Book and as a Commentary.
To see a masterpiece of painting on the walls of an art gallery while a throng of conventional sightseers is pressing past is a very different matter to seeing it quietly on the walls of some stately mansion, when there is time to sit down and drink in the artist's thought, or catch the different lights of early morning, of noon, or of the fading day.
Perhaps the enjoyment is the more complete when some devoted lover of the work stands beside, telling the story of its daily effect upon his mind, and indicating subtle beauties which had escaped the first superficial gaze.
It is with some such intention that this book is sent forth, that, in the quiet of the sick-chamber or of the prayer-closet, attention may be again concentrated on this inimitable psalm; that the familiar words may be considered in the light of growing Christian experience; and that perchance some unnoticed beauty may be suggested by one who seldom comes to it without discerning some fresh reason to thank the Spirit of Inspiration that He ever led the sweet minstrel of Scripture to indite the Shepherd Psalm.
(from The Shepherd Psalm by F. B. Meyer, Biblesoft formatted electronic database Copyright © 2014 by Biblesoft, Inc. All rights reserved.)
One of the greatly loved preachers of his day, Frederick Brotherton Meyer was a pastor, author, Bible teacher and evangelist. A distinct feature of Meyer's ministry was his outcry against the social evils of his day. Not only was he effective in the temperance movement, but he was also responsible for the closing of over 500 houses of prostitution. He also formed a prison aid society. A devoted student of God's Word, he was the author of over 40 books, including Bible biographies, devotional commentaries, sermon volumes and expository works. He also authored several pamphlets and edited a number of magazines. Charles H. Spurgeon said of him, Meyer preaches as a man who has seen God face to face.

Okay, I feel the need to apologize to all the Steelers fans who had to listen to the Seahawks fans whine for years about the refs in Super Bowl XL. Even with be refs the Seahawks had a chance to win and didn't.
What happened in the NFC championship game this year wasn't nearly as egregious but the 49ers fans sure make it feel like it was the worse officiated game ever. It's only been 1.5 days and I'm already tired of hearing about it. 49ers had a chance to win and didn't.
To all Steelers and NFL fans in general, on behalf of the entire Seahawks fan base: I'm sorry for the past 8 years.

How You Can Take Care Of Hair Extensions
Unless you take proper care of your hair extensions, they will not stay as beautiful as they are now. Though these extensions are not your real hair, neglecting them will nor serve any purpose. So, we are here to help with some hair care tips that will keep your mane gorgeous and beautiful:
Always keep your hair dirt free. You may use a shampoo and conditioner that's gentle on your hair and scalp. You may even take the suggestion of your stylist about what will suit your hair and hair extensions. While bathing, wet your hair gradually. Don't pour water directly on your head as the direct pressure may lead to tangling.
When you head towards the beach or the pool, wear a swim cap before taking the dip. Otherwise the salt water or the chemicals in the pool will severely damage your hair. Remember to wash your hair after coming out of the water as some of these might leak into your cap while you were swimming.
You need not wear your hair in braids, ponytails and buns. When styled in various fashions, it will still hold up. Simply use some good quality bands and clips that won't cause your hair to stretch.
While styling your hair, avoid severe heat or your hair may become frizzy. It's advisable to use lukewarm water to wash the hair and let it dry naturally. If you want to use a hair dryer, use the ionic ones to get the best results.
It's best not to color or perm your hair at home as you may cause damage inadvertently. Seek advice from your salon and let them do the same in a professional manner.
Follow these easy tips to have natural and beautiful hair extensions that will stay in place for a long time to come.

Hard Money Real Estate Loans for Rehabs and Fix and Flips
15 May 2012 | 1 Comment | posted by Corey Curwick Dutton | in Uncategorized
Since the banking crisis of 2008, residential mortgages and real estate loans in California, and other States in the U.S., have become scarce for many real estate investors. For real estate investors seeking Real Estate Loans, those who are in need of capital are needing the help of private or hard money lenders in order to fill their immediate needs.
Most banks are not known to offer Hard Money Real Estate loans. But nowadays, with the changes that have been happening in the market, private money lenders and investors are providing quick approvals and closings. This is an advantage in the current market, because banks take a long time to underwrite a loan and fund. For a savvy real estate investor who understands how to submit offers, using a hard money or private money loan, can be the quickest way to take advantage of an investment opportunity. With hard money rehab loans, investors can stretch their precious cash out over multiple investment properties simultaneously.
The need for hard money loans is fast growing among real estate investors. Find out more by submitting a comment below. We'll email you about our rehab loans.
Video: What Is a Hard Money Loan?
16 Apr 2012 | No Comments | posted by Corey Curwick Dutton | in Success
What is Hard Money? People ask me this all the time. A private money loan and a hard money loan are used interchangeably to mean the same thing. A non-bank loan, back by individual or private investment group instead of a bank. A private loan is typically faster and can fund in one day up to 30 days, depending on the complexity of the deal. More flexibility often means higher interest rates, from 7% to 18%.
The qualifications are less harsh, some lenders don't even require a basic loan application or credit report, they just want to inspect the property. While others want to see nearly as much documentation as a bank, but can still move faster than a bank could. Collateral is the most important to a non-bank lender. You must have a real estate asset to use as collateral for this type of loan.
The most important thing about a hard money loan…To find a lender you can trust. Private Money Utah is your trusted resource for private money and hard money loans in California, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Oregon, Washington, Texas, Georgia, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, and Chicago, Illinois.
How Does a Hard Money Lender Value My Property?
4 Apr 2012 | No Comments | posted by Corey Curwick Dutton | in Blog, Hard Money
How Does a Hard Money Lender Value My Property?
When making a loan, a bank and a hard money lender both have different opinions when it comes to determining the value of the property. A hard money lender takes a very conservative approach to property value. For example, the appraised value means nothing to the hard money lender. Instead, a hard money lender will determine the value of the property as if they had to sell it in 30 to 90 days. This is sometimes called a "fire sale" value. If a borrower defaults on a hard money loan, hard money lenders will be able to sell the property quickly at the "fire sale value" to recover their investment. For this reason, a hard money loan is usually in the range of 60-80% of the purchase price. For example, if you are buying a property for $100,000, a hard money lender will give you between $60,000 to $80,000 max of the purchase price.

What Exactly Is a Hard Money Private Money Lender?
15 Mar 2012 | No Comments | posted by Corey Curwick Dutton | in Hard Money
There are two kinds of groups who have a growing need for hard money loans: commercial borrowers not eligible for bank loans, and real estate investors looking for foreclosures.
Hard money or private money to some is getting more popular by the minute as conventional (bank) financing for the real estate industry is still fairly scarce. As a wise borrower, there are rules to learn first before getting a hard money or private money loan.
When banks and brokers are not able to lend money to borrowers, the only option are the private money lenders. These days and with the economy, the demand is high particularly in places in GA, Chicago, NY, and NC.
What is a private money lender exactly? It's the type of lender that doesn't use conventional, bank standards in order to qualify a borrower for a loan. Evaluating credit history, income, and debt levels is typically of banks while the private hard money lenders will just provide a based on the value of the asset being used as collateral for the loan.
Real private hard money lenders are hard to find and their interest rates may not be as accommodating as compared to banks. But these lenders are the best option when the traditional financing from banks is not available or when a borrower is in need of a fast loan.

But before Janaki can have her fairy-tale ending her boss sends her off to uncover a seedy scandal involving a high-profile politician—and she finds herself investigating the man Vishnu works for!
Caught in the whirlwind of her investigation and the thrill of Vishnu's kisses, events in Janaki's life soon start to spin out of her control… "

After a long time i happen to find a good story in Indian collection. I read the whole book in 2.5 hrs soon after getting the delivery. Nistula did a wonderful job in her expression of words and creating an imaginary world around while reading the book. Congratulations to her for writing this superb piece. Will wait for more such creations from her side.
I read it long back but writing this review now...
The author has written in a lucid manner. The reader can easily get involved into it...
The story is very near to reality.
Congratulations to Nistula Hebbar and thanks for good read...
A definite page turner, gripping story. Loved the plot. if u considering to buy a time-pass novel then go ahead guys, its a treat. Lately i have been reading very involved works, but when i saw this book i thought of lightening the mood nd reading and i rily enjoyed it.
Trash of the highest order. The author needs a reality check on her writing abilities is she fooling herself or the readers. You may as well spend 100 bucks on "Greh Shobha"more entertaining :) Verdict Junk
A must buy, talks about the harsh realities of today, which is covered with great sense of responsibility.
This book shares what is happening in todays world where everybody is trying to make a mark for themselves

Supply Chain Integration
To do business with these companies, you first must be able to produce either through your own systems or through the help of a VAN (like Sterling Commerce) ISO X12 EDI transactions. Paper-based transactions are not allowed no matter the size of your company. In fact, if you start processing EDI with these companies and then fail to process EDI within a certain amount of time, you can be fined up to $150 per document occurrence!
The simplified Supply Chain EDI Transaction "chain" begins and ends as follows:
1.) The Customer (Retail Store) generates a Purchase Order electronically and sends to the vendor as an 850 Purchase Order.
2.) The Vendor (Supplier) responds with a 997 Functional Acknowledgement to show the customer that the vendor received the Purchase Order.
3.) The Vendor picks, packs, and schedules the shipping of the order by sending a 204 Load Tender to a carrier of their choice, requesting the carrier to arrive at the warehouse by a certain time/date to pick up the goods to be transported to the Customer.
4.) The carrier responds by sending a 990 Response to a Load Tender that tells the Vendor whether the carrier accepts or declines the request.
5.) If the carrier accepts the request, the Vendor submits an 856 Advance Shipment Notice to the Customer notifying them of the time and date when the goods are expected to ship.
6.) Once the goods ship, the carrier begins sending a 214 Shipment Status EDI to the Customer and/or the Vendor each time a different event occurs with the truck, i.e. cross-docking, exceptions in routing, departing/arriving at a location.
7.) Finally, following the truck leaving the vendor's premises, the Vendor sends an 810 Invoice to the Customer billing them electronically for the goods provided.
This concludes a brief introduction to the flow of electronic documents for Supply Chain Management.

As Health Informatics continues to enjoy exponential growth, the supply of health products and services will take supply chain integration into countless new markets. The unparalleled need for timely and accurate health information will drive the need for an ever more tightly integrated supply chain.ReplyDelete
Issues of standardization, availability, and security will be constantly under examination. While we will ultimately benefit, the accompanying market opportunities will drive much more than simply technical and economic debate. It will likely drive national and international dialogue on how this constantly changing market will be served.
Commendable post David. I was not aware of the fact that EDIs have reached this level of standardization. I used to think that EDI refers to the structured transmission of data between organizations by electronic means (which could be generic). Thank you for such a clean step wise elaboration of the process.ReplyDelete
In this "Service Economy", I was just curious that how things work out in Service industry. Is there any such standardized process, adorned with standard data transmission format specification which makes it different from the Product based industry supply chain?
The integration of supply chain can be made on between two organizations or between organization/business and a consumer...ReplyDelete
This electronic integration of data and automation of business will reduces the heavy costs that occur for the transactions either between two business or either between a business and an organization...
I came across good paper which describes supply chain integration through information sharing between two organizations Wal-Mart and Procter & Gamble .. Do read this.. Dont miss it...I feel its really important for students pursuing Information Systems degree.....
Supply chain and operations management can provide managers with normative advice concerning how and what to integrate, the cost of integration and its possible negative consequences for innovation and agility.IT is a good way to think of system integration.ReplyDelete
That was a pretty good post covering up all the functional steps involved in a supply chain process. It really helped me gain more perspective in this field, since I hold more of a technical background. We had covered a similar case study featuring the Warehouse and Logistics Integration within ARCO. It's pretty amazing how EDI and RFID's can automate all the processes within the chain leading to increased efficiencies at a lower cost.ReplyDelete
Nice post David .... organizations are looking to shrink the supply chain and derive more value out of the chain ...... as interesting these technologies/protocols are to look into ... there are few issues regarding the standards and compatibility that need to be addresses .... since the inception of EDI ... its acceptability has not achieved the expected levels .... hope in near future this gap will be filled ...ReplyDelete
I work for Home Depot and in the Supply Chain. I can tell you that EDIs are used extensively in the organization. They're used in billing, tracking, reporting, and operational compliance. Any carrier that wants to deliver freight from DCs to Stores needs to be able to pass this information to us. Whats surprising (and scary) is that some of the Special Order Product Vendors still don't use EDI for order acknowledgement; some stores still use paper faxes for this notification to their vendors.ReplyDelete

Online Retailers Preparing for Promotion-Heavy Holiday Season,
According to Shop.org eHoliday Survey
-More than Half Plan to Start Holiday Marketing Promotions by Halloween-
Washington, October 24, 2011 – Online retailers have plenty to be joyous about this holiday season as new research shows companies are adjusting their holiday plans based on expected growth and strong demand from holiday shoppers.
According to Shop.org's eHoliday survey conducted by BIGresearch, nearly seven in 10 (68.0%) retailers say they expect their company's online sales to grow at least 15 percent or more compared to last holiday season, up from the 63.8 percent who had those expectations last year.
The survey is supported by new data from the National Retail Federation, which found the average shopper plans to do about 36.0 percent of their holiday shopping online, up from 32.7 percent last year.
One of consumers' most anticipated and favorite holiday promotions, free shipping offers will be hard to miss this holiday season as nine in 10 online retailers (92.5%) say they plan on offering the service at some point, up from 84.8 percent in 2010.
Eager shoppers can also expect these offers to start soon, as nearly one-third (31.4%) of those surveyed say their free shipping offers would start earlier in the season compared to last year. Additionally, 56.3 percent say their budget for free shipping promotions specifically is somewhat or significantly higher than last year.
"There's no question consumers are eager to hit the Web this holiday season, and online retailers are prepping by optimizing their sites, beginning their marketing and promotions early, and planning plenty of free shipping promotions as they aim to provide value and convenience for their shoppers," said Shop.org head of research Fiona Swerdlow.
"Online retailers will also leverage their social media and mobile platforms for savvy shoppers on the go, knowing how important customer reviews and comparison shopping applications are to holiday shoppers."
Like their store counterparts, online merchants say they will begin promoting the holiday season earlier this year. The survey found more than half (52.9%) plan to start their online holiday marketing and promotions by Halloween, up from the 40 percent who planned to do so last year. Another 37.2 percent will begin marketing by mid-November.
When it comes to online retailers' holiday season priorities, many have already invested in new technologies and site and service features. More than half (51.0%) said they have significantly invested in mobile-optimized websites and 19.6 percent have invested in tablet device apps.
Additionally, 35.3 percent said they have significantly invested in QR codes in offline advertising, such as magazine ads and billboards. Of those who regularly use social media platforms, nearly three-quarters say they have already invested in their Facebook (72.5%) and Twitter (41.2%) accounts in advance of the holidays.
"Consumers today are far from one-track minded when it comes to finding holiday gifts," said Pam Goodfellow, Consumer Insights Director, BIGresearch. "These days, most people want to shop around all season long, using their smartphones to scan items in stores and compare prices, retailers' websites to find store locations to scope out gift ideas, and tablets or laptops to shop from the convenience of their home."
When asked why they plan to spend more online this holiday season, four in 10 shoppers (43.2%) said 24-hour convenience is a main consideration. More shoppers this year are also interested in shopping online as a direct result of free shipping offers – 36.3 percent will spend more online this year if shipping comes free. Other reasons include their lack of desire to fight crowds in the stores (37.2%) and the ease of comparing prices (29.6%).
Consumers will get information about retailers' sales and promotions from a variety of channels. The survey found nearly three in 10 (29.2%) will check out a company's Facebook page for more information and about two-thirds (65.1%) will read customer reviews on the company's website.
