Gears: 2.7M Sold, Patch Notes, Free Maps
It's a good time to be a fan of Marcus Fenix.
Bach also talked about the future of Gears, stating: "That title is now a Halo-like franchise that continues to drive hardware in a very positive way. We think it is an evergreen platform that we can continue to leverage for a long, long time." Gears of War 2 and 3 confirmed.
The original GoW receives an upgrade this week, as Epic Games is releasing a patch tomorrow, January 9th, to fix issues players have been experiencing while on Xbox Live. The complete list of tweaks are:
- Fixed aspect ratio distortion when using VGA cable with 4:3 displays at resolutions higher than 640x480
- Fixed voice issue with new players joining Player Match games in progress
- Players can now get the Achievement for "Dish Best Served Cold" when using Troika turret to kill RAAM
- Fixed rare situation where host could loop countdown and never start match
- Fixed rare situation where players could get stuck after chainsawing in multiplayer
- Reduced Grenade Tag melee distance
- Enabled "Strict" NAT check on host to prevent possible connection issues
- Optimized server browser queries to return results more quickly and prevent scroll bars from hiding quality of service icons
- Reduced number of possible revives in Execution to match Warzone
- Removed host name from Ranked match server browser
- Disabled security cameras in Ranked matches
- Ranked matches now require balanced teams (3v3 or 4v4)
- Increased penalty for quitting a Ranked match to -50 points
- Added additional cheat detection code
- Additional housekeeping updates
That's not all, either. By partnering up with the Discovery Channel, Epic will be releasing two maps free of charge this Wednesday, January 10th. The first, Raven Down, has players battling around a downed Raven Helicopter in search of survivors. The second, Old Bones, tasks players with protecting human history from the Locust Horde, who apparently have a massive problem with museums.
That's enough Gears news for one day, right?

I'm pretty sure that he was talking about actually using the scope for the long shot. I've experienced his frustration a few times myself. Its mostly due to the fact that shooting some one in the head while there severing a mans upper torso is a difficult task. As a nother note as far as I know all the damage that is dealt to a player while hes chainsawing some one goes through once he completes the action. But this is somethign I have not researched or tested extreamly people who are in the act of chainsawing some one tend to have one glaring weakness... shotguns.

to this topic and 1up deleted my comment. i don't get it. i've never really thought 1up was biased towards any company, but I listed a few of the faults I discovered with this new patch and they deleted my comment. Are they trying to cover for microsoft?

"The best games are on the Playstation. Like Gran Theft Auto, Gran Turismo and the Madden series." Hmmm, I'm pretty sure I played 2 out of 3 of those on my XBox...noob.
what i want to knowPosted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by G_Cornholio
is when they come out tomorrow? immediately? i hope so. cause im more than willing to burn the midnight oil for some of the few free, high-value high-quality content items (aside from rvb, which is free and awesome) to show up on the marketplace
more game modesPosted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by paulust2002
Come on guys, how about capture the flag, and some custom options to.
It still is not fixedPosted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by KeiAkiSakias182
After playing a match today, I noticed (duh!) that the voice issue when entering into an ongoing player match still has not been fixed despite the patch
GOW.... rocks!!!Posted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by nacho
yeah GOW is the best game in a while..... I like Playstation games like Ratchet and Clank...... and the Hot Shots series but right now GOW is the best...... I also recommend Resistance in multiplayer... its not as pretty as GOW but its more fun i think.....
Hey Dragon_Knighl22Posted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by miggidy
I'm all for zombified fanboy clones but the Madden series? You mentioned two franchises that aren't even the best within their own genres. Do yourself a favor and wash away your Sony favoritism and give Gears a spin. You can thank me later! Migg
give them some timePosted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by sl1ck83
im sure they will add clan or ranke team options in at some point they probally want to get the little glitches in the game fixed before they have to totally go in and redo their online setup. and if they dont then ill have the halo3 beta and then shadowrun after that if they decide ranked team play isnt that important. i have no problem moving on if they ignore this problem. still a good game though. and glad to see the update/free maps thanks epic.
Just a Fad.!!!!Posted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by jim327
The novelty lasted about a month..but multiplayer shits me to tears,they need more objective game types.....But then again all you guys with NO!! friends don,t mind playing with jerks The only people to get it right is Bungie....Bring on Halo 3....
Gears of War is crapPosted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by Dragon_Knighl22
The best games are on the Playstation. Like Gran Theft Auto, Gran Turismo and the Madden series.
If you like playing ranked games with your friends...Posted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by TEXACUTI0NER
It's time to start doing what the whiny crybabies with no friends do..yep... .you're gonna have to call 1-800-4-MYXBOX and ...sorry.....complain.......there going to keep doing this in SQUAD based games if we do not lift our voices above the whiny crybabies. YOU COULD EMAIL them if they provided you with an email address.. but sadly that is not readily availible..although you can hammer their website and go thru the support email directly..if enough people hammer them..word will get out.
BladesWillBleedPosted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by TEXACUTI0NER
Do you know what a SQUAD is? Can you say SQUAD? TEAM? Do you know what that means....? Is this a single player fighting game? Does everyone in the world who has friends and likes to play with them have to NOT get points/ranking because whiny crybabies like you have no friends to play with online in a SQUAD BASED game? Why is it the whiny crybaby complainers are always heard above the voices of the satisfied players? I'm sick of you whiny crybaby complainers - don't you realize the reason you have no friends is BECAUSE you're a whiny crybaby complainer???? PLayers of Squad combat games need to start an online petition to be heard above these crybabies who ruin games like GRAW and now GoW. Thanks whiny crybaby complainers. We appreciate your non-stop crying above the sounds of chainsaws, bullets, and grenage tags. Keep crying.
Huh?Posted: Jan 09, 2007 12:00AM PST by TEXACUTI0NER
G R A W ranked re revisted. Thanks assholes.
Straight garbagePosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Unholy_Candyman
I was wondering if Lost Planet would tear me away from Gears. Epic has made the decision for me. I play with friends. I have an established strategy. This update is straight garbage.
What time will the patch appear?Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by chickbot21
Noon, 6pm, midnight pacific time, etc.?
I'LL CLEAR THIS UPPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Myrmidon23
first off i do think not being able to play ranked games with friends sucks seeing as Xbox Live is supposed to be about playing together. I do however understand why it sucks going up against four friends with a strat but thats what is so fun. A group of 4 vs another group of 4 is way better because it will increase the competition. if its 4 people ho never play together vs another 4 who don't then it isn't really a team game at all it comes down to who ever has the 1337 guy on their teem (or the lucky n00b). I do have to say to those people who complain about being "gang-banged" that its not the groups fault u don't have friends to play with. The simple yet unstated solution would be to make two rankes matchmaking (hell didn't halo have like 8 diff ranked games) in which one would be groups of 4 vs another group, and the other be how the current is set up (random).
its not overratedPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by moosepaw
this game to me is not overrated, if it was then why have i spent at least 150 hours playing it? sure the accual game is short, but heres an idea, beat it on every level of difficulty and then the game will be longer and u can unlock the achievements, then when your done, you have endless mutiplayer, the funniest mutiplayer ive had since counter strike back in 2000 lol, i will be playing this game even when halo3 is out
2.7 million...Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by TheKingOfNothing
Nice...a game that definetly doesn't deserve it, but I'll give MS a hand for doing a good job at advertising, and getting a game that should have been rated a 7 or 8 and sold for $4O to sell like hot cakes.
Long over due...but I can't wait!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Master_Samus
Cant turn down fixes and new maps...even if they are from the Discovery Channel... (wtf? haha)I wonder if they will or are able to fix the chainsaw/revive invincibility thing...
Thanks but....no.Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Ghost_Fox
Sweet free maps and their fixing the grenade tags. However their messing up ranked matches more than they are helping it. So now in a ranked <u>team</u> based game I will always be teamed up w/ complete strangers and possibly assholes/losers and try to win? Thanks but no thanks. Halo 2 had it correct, why couldn't you GOW. Oh and fix the damn glitches >_<
finally!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by br1ghtdarkness
no more 'nade tagging from 10 feet away!!!
bargh! ! !Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by BreakfastPills
Nooooooooooo! OF course, all this happens the day I leave for college! Bargh! ! ! I like how they call the endless countdown loop a "rare" problem. HAH.
Maps? matchmaking still broken!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by aTOMik
Why do I still have to sit in a lobby with my friends when we don't have even teams? Ranked, unranked, old maps, new maps, who gives a turd when I have to wait for people to join my party. Thanks for the maps but, Give me team matchmaking please! Remember those old Xbox ads, " Its good to play together." I guess Epic missed those.
Its great that I still can't play ranked games with my friendsPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by hurtfulmadmax
I guess I'll wait until the second patch for that feature which will allow me to play ranked games with peole who aren't dicks.
awesome newsPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by bladeswillbleed
BUT WHEN THE FUCK WILL PEOPLE REALIZE THAT PLAYING WITH FRIENDS IN RANKED MATCHES COMPLETELY DEFEATS THE PURPOSE. That pretty much means 50% of you responding to this are retarded. Ranked matches determine who is good and who isn't. Not "Hey, let's have us 4 form a strategy, so when these 4 random kids come in the room, who have never played together, we can win. YAY" Whoever does that is a homo, anyways, and you ruin the game for anyone else.
w00tPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by AlmostSkater88
no more fagtaggers or stacked-team friends gangbanging noobs who have never played together. And new maps. Fuck yall team stackers, it's our time to shine.
Halo-like? Have you played the game?Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by CorranThrn
It is not halo-like at all. In fact, besides the fact that you are holding a gun, there is NOTHING at all that even compares to Halo. Its not even a FPS. Its Third person. The only way it compares is that they are both incredibly awesome. But don't compare it to Halo.
AWSOME!!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Monkychief
this franchis has a awsome Halolike gameplay its gonna be awsome!
happy, kinda...Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by moosepaw
im happy with this update, except, why do they have to kill our fun, most of the time when im having fun its cuz i play with people i know in ranked, now that that is taken away, i have to play player match? and have it count for nothing, and u cant get the acheivements? how lame.... but the new levels sound awesome!
SWEET!!!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Hylian_Knight
Awesome, 2 maps with no micro-transactions attached, is that even possible? Let's keep this going with fixing the invincible-in-animation glitch. Biggest game breaker for me.
My mood just got betterPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by goingcommando117
Gears of War was in desperate need of a patch, and here we are. This is still nice, but it would have been nicer on Christmas Eve. When it was promised...
GOODPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by fathertime
It's good to see a company that values there customers.And with two free maps I ain't complaining. P.S. cheke out my blog and give me your input.
its a startPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by primedrctv
hopefully just the beginning of the flow.
this is the...Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by NealiORLY
everybody bitch about not being able to play with their friends on ranked matches to stack teams in order to get a better score topic isnt it? all i have to say about that is good. why is it so burdensome to play unranked with your friends and play ranked by yourself to test your mettle and not yours and your friends? epic, thank you for the awesome update. i suggest you try to sell all the people bitching dev kits so they can make their own game so they can play ranked matches with friends... its not enough we get two new maps for free is it? always want more dont cha you greedy fuckers! lol
(80's style fist pump) Yessss!!!!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by ArchangelSeven
Free maps?!! Fixes?!! They really know how to treat their customers. One map would of been cool, but two?
who the fuck cares about ranked matches anyway?!?Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Wii60_FTW
i cant wait for this patch and map pack, but why are people ALWAYS bitching about not being able to join a ranked match with invites? WHO THE FUCK CARES! THATS WHAT PLAYER MATCH IS FOR YOU DUMB FUCKING APE! stop acting like anyone gives a fuck about a meaningless "rank" and just play the god damned fucking game already.
They should call this the "Cha-Cha" Patch.Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Lobezno_D
The patch takes a step forward while going 2 back. Aside from the free maps(yay), etc. etc, the other "improvements" made pretty much suck. The biggest step backwards here is the changes made to rank play...seriously what were these fools smoking? This is not a way to treat the peeps who supported your product.
YAY & GAYPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by bangrabowski
Yay to the fact that they are fixing most of the glitch issues, Gay to the fact that they are taking host name away from the server search on ranked games.
Playing with friends ranked...Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by FirstStrike117
Wtf are you guys bitching about? How is it fair that you can play 4 friends vs 4 randoms?? While Gears' ranked play has nothing on Halo's matchmaking, at least the system as it is will be slightly less broken.
Frustratingly Mixed BagPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Sir_Auros
I like the free maps, but they went the opposite direction they should have with the matchmaking. I was really hoping they'd add the option to join friends or clan support, but instead they've cut the legs off the multiplayer. Yes, you could play unranked, but then you lose out on the ridiculous number of achievements that are only obtainable via ranked.
Gears of War = The game you still cant play ranked games with your friendsPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by AaronPS2
Boy I hope the guys on the 1upyours podcast take the guys at Epic to task on this: Removed host name from Ranked match server browser Now they are making it even more harder to play ranked games with your friends. Its time to drop the trueskill ranking Epic! Cant wait for the other maps and fixes though.
Discovery Channel?Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by bobaganush22
I'm glad the range on frag grenade melee attacks. I hate those things.
Frustrating but still goodPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Hitokirishaggy
Alot of this sounds really good but I gotta say im extremely mad that they arnt trying to set up a way to join with your friends game to game. Like someone earlier said this game is just built for playing with friends and forming the best team possible. Its cool they can remove the name in the ranked list but add a clan/friend playlist that you can pit team again team. The only thing that I hate about this game is getting stuck with 2-3 players on my team who refuse to talk and all run off and die one by one leaving me to fend against 3-4 players.
thank you epicPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Superior_Thoughtz
But why do you have to remove the hosts name?!?!?, I wanna find my friends and play with them you know, And not just that, why does it has to be 50 points when someone quits, 50 points aint nothing, it should be 1,000 points when someone quits, because i really hate quiters, anyways great update and those 2 maps look fucking great
Great....Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by fiendman666
Now about that TREMENDOUS host advantage in multiplayer...
hmmmm YEA 2 NEW MAPS!!!!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by agentboolen
Happy about the 2 new maps, cant wait to play them. Other updates sound good, but the host name not being seeable sounded odd, oh well.
I'm Really Not One To Complain ...Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by h8billg8ts
... but where am I going to make time between? I've still got Zelda, Loco Roco, and Metal Slug not even opened yet ...
A big "Yay!" for epic's free maps...Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by h20
...its nice to see some maps that are actually free. Wonder how much arguing with MS Epic had to do in order for it to stay that way. Not that im saying future map packs will be free, but im glad these two are.
Poor Sony....Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by BlazingAero
The first game of theirs that will sell this well is MGS4(long ways away), and rumors say it's coming to 360 as well. This, combined with an inevitable price drop this year(and possibly a new console w/HDMI & 120GB), and it's hard to imagine Sony catching up in this country.
Thank You!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by xbox_fanboy
removing host name and no more stacked matches. now i can finally play some ranked matches without fear of playing against 6 or 7 friends and just getting hosed in stacked matches. the point of the ranking system is to see how good YOU are and not how good you and your friends are together. that needs a clan system. yeah gears doesn't have it and it sucks, but oh well. this is all we have. play it like it's intended to be played.
f***ing A!!!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Pdnlegs(JC)
first we cant party up for ranked play, and now we cant even search for our friends' games to play together that way.
awesome! but...Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by spinning_blade
Thats awesome that they've fixed a few problems and have created new maps. Nice job. But, I would have traded all of those updates for a fixed multiplayer system. And I know there are many players out there that agree with me.
Sump22 nailed itPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Grey1986
It's not meant to be an 8 player solo thing, everything about Gears multiplayer is geared towards a team game. With the current system you just end up going online and watching as your team-mates run off on their own and get taken out each round despite your protests that you should try and work together. If Epic're going to put such an emphasis on team play the least they could do is let you play ranked games with friends rather than expecting you and a group of strangers to suddenly develop excellent teamwork skills.
Removing Host Name?Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Sump22
I am utterly disappointed. I was so excited reading the bullets then I got to that one and now I don't even know if I want to play online if I can't play with my buddies in any ranked games now. The game is supposed to be team based, not a 8 player solo fest. Argghhhhhh.
Thank You Epic!Posted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by DE4DEYED4N
When I 1st heard about the 30 days, no Gears content, I started to get a little hopeless. Seeing this anouncement of the free maps makes me feel good about owning a XBOX360 and Gears of War! Epic has been taking care of fans for years on PC and it is good to see this same generosity come to consoles! Thank you Epic and keep giving us gamers great games with value for the years to come. Epic starts the 2007a with a BANG! -DannyBoy
Terrible ranked systemPosted: Jan 08, 2007 12:00AM PST by Grey1986
"Removed host name from Ranked match server browser" So after the stupidity of not being able to form parties to go into ranked games ala Halo 2 now we can't even search for friends already hosting games? Wow, way to screw up online Epic.
I love me some GOW. Now I can't wait to keep on playing...but boy oh boy I gotta BM that won't leave me alone today!

We chose this cruise for several reason: we'd have 3 days anchored in Bermuda; departing from New Jersey was convenient after we visited friends in D.C., and we've had only good experiences with Celebrity. We always book balcony cabins, and this time we upgraded to a Spa Concierge Cabin. The Spa Cabins are well-located for the spa and fitness center, but also the hydrotherapy pool and adult sanctuary area. Your spa cabin entitles you to unlimited use of the Persian Garden, which has heated loungers and nice showers. We not big spa users, but we'd book one of these cabins again just for the wonderful, roomy showers (they have multiple jets, as well as a rain shower head.) The toiletries are also upgraded, the robes are plush terrycloth, and you receive a gift package of lip balm, facial spray, and 2 pairs of spa/loofah slippers packaged in a net bag. You also receive a bottle of sparkling wine, as well as fresh fruit, and fresh flowers (as you do in the standard Concierge cabins.) You also receive 2 free bottles of water each day.
Along with your cabin amenities, you have exclusive access to Blu, a private restaurant. It's a relaxing oasis with "lighter" versions of the main dining rooms foods. There are many smallish tables, so it's lovely for conversation, and the service was fine. We did eat in the main dining room most nights though. as the food choices were more extensive and we enjoy sharing large tables and meeting new people. Breakfast in Blu is relaxing though and there are plenty of food choices. Don't be scared about the "lighter" labels for the food: you can still get a good steak or pastries or similar indulgences. Some of our fellow passengers loved Blu and ate there at every opportunity. We didn't visit the specialty restaurants that charge a fee, probably because we live in a big city, so they're not that special to us. We enjoyed the regular dining room and the buffet and had plenty of variety. We really enjoyed the fresh sushi that pops up on the buffet in the evening; we would sometimes go enjoy sushi as our appetizer before we ate dinner in the dining room. We also took advantage of the Premier Beverage program, which charges a flat fee for unlimited beverages (including wines up to $12 a glass.) You prepay gratuities on this program, but there are never any slips to sign or worry about, and it covers all beverages, including bottled water, specialty coffees, juices, etc.
There are plenty of activities if you like to keep busy, but between our balcony and the abundance of pool lounges (we were pleased they seem to do a more conscientious job of clearing off unused "saved" chairs at reasonable intervals than some ships) we did a lot of relaxing. The stage shows (especially the challenging and very well-done dancing) were amazing (and we've seen many staged shows over the years.) We played in the casino on sea days, but were surprised to find exclusively penny and nickel slot machines. You do use your room key as a "players card," but you have to cash out after every session; we cruised a Holland America ship where they just ran an ongoing tab for you, using your room key; you could cash out whenever you wished or just wait until the last night; we liked that.
The ship anchors at King's Wharf at the tip of Bermuda, so there's no tendering and King's Wharf has pubs and restaurants and shopping, as well as some abandoned but interesting architecture. You anchor right near the ferries to Hamilton and St. Georges, and there are island buses, as well as a King's Wharf shuttle, so getting around the dock area and the whole of Bermuda is easy. Because you're there 3 days, there is a lot of opportunity to book your own excursions and adventures, but we did book trips through the cruise line (and we loved the ability to book excursions and dining through the television in our cabin!) We did a mini-bus tour of the whole island, and it was great. Only about 12 people and a charming and witty guide who kept us very entertained in the Bermudan traffic. We did see fellow passengers book scooters (you can't rent a car there,) but the locals do caution against that, with the tricky roads and traffic concerns (reportedly, there had already been multiple scooter fatalities and accidents this year.) We did a catamaran cruise through the "Devil's Isles" and had some snorkeling and beach time. We did a thorough job touring King's Wharf, including the glass blowing and rum cake businesses. We enjoyed shopping in the Clock Tower Mall and refreshing ourselves in the Frog and Onion Pub (with local microbrews.) There is a beach right on the wharf, but, reportedly, it's not nearly as nice as many others you can reach by bus. We skipped "The Dolphin Experience," but would have enjoyed that if we were still traveling with children. All in all, we kept busy, but built in plenty of relaxation!

4 Ways Video Can Drive Traffic and Conversions
Video is one of the fastest-growing content types on the Internet. More than 172 million individual Americans watched an average of 14.9 hours of web video in April, the most recent month for which publicly available statistics have been published.
The data comes from Internet tracking firm comScore, which also said that Americans collectively engaged in 5.1 billion "viewing sessions" in April.
With so much video being consumed online, ecommerce marketers should be asking whether or not video content could have a positive effect on clicks and conversions. The answer seems to be a resounding yes.
Similarly ReelSEO, an online magazine, reported last year that case studies — from Treepodia, a video provider — demonstrated a 46.22 percent increase in conversions for two specific online retailers during a multivariate study. ReelSEO also indicated that Zappos enjoyed at least a 6 percent increase in conversions for products with video.
So why is it that video can help with both search engine optimization and conversions? Here are four possible reasons.
1. Videos Make Good Content
Search engine optimization is a marketing technique in flux. SEO practitioners that focus on "gaming Google" or urging site owners to monitor "keyword density" — see "The Keyword Density of Non-Sense" at Mi Islita, a site addressing search engine technologies — are struggling as Google and other search engines rapidly change algorithms to produce better search results for users and, frankly, foil SEO "experts" who seek to take advantage of those algorithms to boost ranking unduly. See "Google's 'Farmer' Algorithm and What It Means for Ecommerce SEO," my take on the recent "Farmer/Panda" algorithm change.
On the other hand, you have SEO practitioners — sometimes called "new SEOs" — who focus rather on serving up good content in a semantic and readable way. This is the sort of SEO that seeks to provide value to search engine users, and it is the sort of SEO that Google and other search engines seem to appreciate.
All of the above has been written about SEO to make a simple point: video content, given the trends in online video consumption, is good content and may perform well on search engine results pages.
It is important to point out that search engine personalization and instant search has a significant effect on search engine results pages, and therefore results will vary by user. SundaySky, which makes dynamic video generation tools, was able to produce some interesting data about video content and SEO in its "State of Video in E-Commerce Quarterly Research Report Q1 2011."
SundaySky analyzed Zappos' video performance in more than 21,000 shoe-related search queries conducted during March 2011. SundaySky found that Zappos product videos showed up in 8.1 percent of the queries tested, potentially generating 77,316 additional clicks each month. Often Zappos pages that contained video were also listed in "Shopping" search-engine results on the page, too.
2. Videos Give Shoppers More Product Information
Product videos on ecommerce sites can provide shoppers with significantly more information about what a product looks like, or how that product should make the consumer feel.
This may sound obvious, but video can convey a lot of product information in a very compact way. Video can also add emotion and create demand by appealing to additional senses. For example, Williams-Sonoma actually demonstrates how to use some of its products with video.
Likewise, Goldsmith uses videos to help inform shoppers about new golf clubs.
3. Videos Build Customer Relationships
Marketers have long sought to build lasting and loyal relationships with customers. In times past, this was done by carefully monitoring a brand's image and messaging to consumers over time with a lot of frequency.
In the age of online video, a similar kind of store or brand affinity can be had by entertaining or engaging shoppers with video. In this way, consumers become emotionally connected to a retailer or brand because that retailer or brand makes them feel good.
Examples of this sort of relationship building abound, including Blentec's popular "Will it Blend" video series.
And here's a Blendtec video on YouTube.
Best Buy engages customers on its site and on YouTube with web original video and humorous commercials.
And here's a Best Buy video on YouTube.
Macy's showed every episode of its Macy's Million Dollar Makeover on YouTube generating hundreds of thousands of video views.
A Macy's video from YouTube.
4. Videos Are Easy to Share in Social Media
Finally, another reason that video may be contributing to more SEO clicks and conversions for ecommerce sites is its relative ease of use. Many online retailers allow their video content to be embedded on other sites.
For example, if a shopper likes finger tentacles on the Archie McPhee website, that shopper could very easily grab the demonstration video and embedded it in a blog or on a social media site like Facebook.
An Archie McPhee video.
Summing Up
There are strong indications that video may have a positive effect on both ecommerce SEO clicks and on conversions. It also may well be that video's value as good, searchable content, its ability to communicate product value, its ability to engage and entertain, and the relative ease with which it can be shared are all contributing to ecommerce video success.

Great summary, Armando! Nicely sums up the benefits video-using retailers are realizing.
On the 'videos provide more information' concept, I think it's key that the information is provided in context with a human being. Information about the size of a product, for example, is just a number when communicated in text. In video, you see the person holding it and get a more concrete sense.
Video also adds what I call "sensory metadata". The classic Mac vs PC commercials show this. Think of all that the Mac actor conveys about who he is without saying a word by simply looking youthful and hip. Pair your product with the right spokesperson and you make it even easier for your shoppers to see your product as something that fits with their lifestyle.
Great article; especially nice job summing up the reasons why video is compelling. Interesting that the focus was 100% on professional video. To truly create a compelling video experience at retail, you also need user generated videos. Comscore ran research that found that user gen videos were arguably even more persuasive than professional videos, but more importantly…were incredible complementary. Our (EXPOs) user gen videos quickly becoming pervasive on major retail sites. Reach out if you'd like to learn more.
Thanks for referring to us in this article, and thanks for doing such a great job of summarizing the current state of affairs in online video for ecommerce.
The reality is that incredibly enough videos benefit and boost marketing efforts even when clients don't watch them. This is true from an SEO perspective, as well as from a consumer-trust aspect – simply having videos on your site already speaks well of your brand, so you get trust brownie points even if visitors don't watch them.
As an ecommerce video platform specializing in creation of automated video we obviously tend to believe that our model has benefits for ecommerce operators that can't be beat by other models (mainly scalability, pricing, A/B testing and video analytics), but we're well aware that some brands, including major ones, have chosen alternative video implementations.
The good news is that with video engagement trends being what they are there's more than enough room for everyone to operate in this space…

Remembering Mandela's visit to Washington
Mandela was greeted by a standing ovation. Members of the Congressional Black Caucus erupted in cheers to welcome this great freedom fighter.
Taking the long view on fight for freedom
As one of 250,000 who attended the 1963 "March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom," I had to come to Washington, Aug. 24, to be a part of the 50th anniversary march.
The power and hope of the March on Washington
It was thrilling to travel from New Haven to Washington with a bus full of young people age 7 on up looking for hope and eager to act. At the march, they collected over 200 signatures on petitions for the Youth Jobs Act.
King's dream confronted "giant triplets of racism, extreme materialism and militarism"
After Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. opposed the U.S. war in Vietnam, he received a barrage of criticism from editorial boards, donors and even other civil rights leaders.
Civil rights 2013: a cautionary tale from Alabama
In July of 1963, I was preparing for my senior year at Nashville's Pearl High School. For me, news about the civil rights movement became an unsettling blend of darkest tragedies and heady victories.
1963 March on Washington transformed my town
This is the story of one direct outcome of the 1963 March on Washington, to which I went as a member of the Huntington Township Committee on Human Relations in Suffolk County, Long Island.
Three generations march on Washington
I'm very proud that my father and uncle, Joe and Dennis Mora, were both at the 1963 March on Washington, one of many demonstrations and activities they participated in during the civil rights heyday.
Three days on bus, then dancing at March on Washington
I was a 28 year-old peace activist in San Francisco in 1963 when I got a call from Women for Peace asking if I'd like to go to the March on Washington as one of their delegates.
Food deficits, deadlier than budget deficits
Living on a farm makes me think long and deep about food deficits here at home and around the world, deficits far more menacing than budget deficits.
New Haven marches for immigrant rights
The magnificent outpouring of over 200,000 people in the nation's capitol for comprehensive immigration reform on March 21 will have a profound impact across this country.

Detail of an automatic gear shifter in a new, modern car. Modern car interior with close-up of automatic transmission and cockpit background
This week's toothsome eye candy comes to us courtesy of John Scime of Hamilton, who is justifiably proud of is beautifully restored 1969 Plymouth Road Runner.
The resto project was an in- and outside job, and certainly not for the faint of heart.
Scime bought the car from a friend as a body shell and "several bushel baskets" of parts back in 2006, and then the rebuilding began.
"It's an original 383 4 speed car.? But since the engine was long gone, I decided?it needed a?Hemi engine.? It's pretty much based on the original 426, only this one has a longer stroke crank which results in a 472 cubic inch displacement."
Which pretty much guarantees this Road Runner lives up to its name.
Got candy? Do you have a beautifully restored or vintage car you?d like to show off to our readers? Submit a good-quality jpeg along with a brief description to [email protected] (please use 'Eye Candy' in the subject line). You can also share it with us on our new Instagram account at #wheelsca.

Do you have an addictive personality?
September 6th, 2003, 12:07 PM
Do you? ^^;;
Whatever it is........
September 7th, 2003, 8:37 AM
im a very happy / suicidal person .............. when i talk to ppl they cant help but talk too me ^^
September 7th, 2003, 8:59 AM
Perhaps? I'm bad at starting conversation, but when I get into it I never let go.
So, I'm unsure as to what my answer is.
September 7th, 2003, 10:06 AM
I don't think that's something for people to decide on their own. x_X You need others' opinions for this one, I think.
September 7th, 2003, 10:14 AM
It depends on what another person likes. My personality's weird, soo..
Lightning proves a point. Jaja.
^^NICK^^ v.2.0
September 7th, 2003, 10:32 AM
Most of my peers I dislike, and they know it, and that's not addictive.
September 7th, 2003, 11:40 AM
i don't even know what's an "addictive" personality...
Lightning is right on this one. When it's a poll to talk about someone's personality, that someone can never make a right call about him/herself. The answer is usually sanctified. Only if the answer comes out of the mouth from someone else you'll get an honest but usually harsh answer.
September 7th, 2003, 1:06 PM
Who thinks I have an addictive personality??
September 7th, 2003, 4:41 PM
Well you've certainly got an interesting one. I'm not very clear on what "addictive" means personality-wise, though. =\
But... I guess I'd say yes to you, Dizzy. ^_^; You almost always seem so upbeat (even when you're down). That always seems to cheer people up. ;)
September 7th, 2003, 4:56 PM
awwwwwwwwwwwww thanx so much lightning that makes me so good!
September 7th, 2003, 5:08 PM
can anyone actually set a defintion of an "addictive personality?" before we start judging... let's talk about what it is first.

Do i have a great Personality?
September 7th, 2003, 6:33 PM
I agree with Lightning you have an addictive personality Dizzy XD

Lol I didn't exactly know what I was talking about -_-
I'm just taking Lightning's example.:)

I'm not sure if I have an addictive personality, I like my personality and I have many other people who like it, but I don't know if it would be described as addictive. I don't really know what you mean by addictive...

Plateau area's Hagadone briefly makes show
Nick Hagadone's baseball dreams came true Friday when he received the call. He was headed to the big leagues.
The one-time Sumner High pitching standout, who took his game to the University of Washington before being drafted into the professional ranks, joined the Cleveland Indians.
But the baseball gods were not smiling on the big left-hander. Due to injuries outside the pitching corps and Cleveland's need to recall an outfielder, Hagadone was sent back to the Class AAA Columbus Clippers the following day. He was assigned No. 50, but did not appear in a game.
Hagadone's statistics show he may soon be back in a major league uniform. Working out of the bullpen, he has built a 6-4 record this season with an impressive 2.84 earned-run average. Appearing in 45 games, he struck out 76 batters while walking 22. The 6-foot-5, 230-pound prospect has been even better in his last 10 games, sporting a 2.40 ERA.
Hagadone, 25, has split the season between Class AA Akron and AAA Columbus, earning a promotion to the AAA club May 19.
Hagadone was drafted by the Boston Red Sox, but changed baseball addresses July 31, 2009, when he was part of a trade with Cleveland. He was the 55th overall selection between the first and second rounds of the 2007 First-Year Player Draft out of the University of Washington. He entered the 2011 season ranked as the 10th best prospect in the Indians system according to Baseball America.

After I saw that idiot fan at the Arena Football game grab the player when he was waiting to return a kick earlier this week, my brain was forced into motion thinking of more fan interactions during games or at any other sporting events.
A few came to me very quickly, while others had me searching. Here's my list of the best/worst fan interactions.


text:
I doubted very much. Don't let the #$%$ on this site convince you otherwise. It's profit-taking and some shorts. Don't let anyone think that sales in Canada are not good. Sales in the UK were not strong. Sales and then you UAE are not good, and That the product isn't good and against all the great reviews. Don't listen to all the #$%$ stocks go up and they go down and they go in cycles. 10 years ago apple was broke. No Kia was burning money like crazy, now they're breaking even. Just recently Netflix was 50 bucks a share and expected to lose $.13 a share. This company is not going anywhere because they have a good product. But there has been miscalculation regarding the fact that it is not yet available in the USA. Someone screwed up and should pay for it or it's in master-planned that in the end might turn out to be the best. The only way we'll know is if sales around the world go well until the US is ready to buy. This is a long-term play and no one will know anything until the next quarterly.
I dont get why ppl keep on asking for sales number. Just how many companies in history release theirnsales numbers after 12 days.. similarly, does every individual remember how much they spend in 12 days.. exact amounts pls.. thats what quarterly earnings r for.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I agree Zhiyu....
Unfortinately the majority of posters in here are not traders or investors.they are fanboys thinking their beloved blackberry is the next Apple. They have proven time and time again from their posts that they have no knowledge of the markets and numbers reporting..
For the 1000th time!! THEY WILL NOT RELEASE SALES NUMBERS UNTIL EARNINGS RELEASE IN 6 WEEKS!
What is your native tongue good sir?
It's obvious that the sheep follow as they always do. When you have a buy rating the stock turns up by 5 to 10 percent. Unfortunately there are twice as many idiotic downgrades as upgrades. We need another positive statement by an analyst or the company. Been waiting so long to get the phones sold in the US is hurting the company's stock price. But the phone is selling in other parts of the world outside of the US.
Sentiment: Buy
Yes, That's what I'm saying.
The numbers ARE OUT .... line-ups .... stores sold out of BB ... in no less than 3 Countries, with a combined population of 100 million people ... India, France, Russia are around the corner .... the shorts will still follow the Wall Street HERD, until they get 'slaughtered' and exist no more ...
Sentiment: Strong Sell

Mike Klis of the Denver Post writes that in the Seattle Seahawks' acquisition of restricted free agent quarterback Charlie Whitehurst from the San Diego Chargers, the Denver Broncos have an answer to their Brandon Marshall problem: Sign him, and trade him to Seattle.
The Seahawks are interested in Marshall, but not enough to where they'll sign him to an offer sheet and surrender the 6th overall pick of the 2010 NFL Draft. ESPN's Adam Schefter and Michael Lombardi of the National Football Post/NFL Network have reported that the Broncos won't take less than that 6th overall pick for Marshall, but based on the Broncos' decision to not tender him at the highest possible draft compensation level, Denver is and always has been willing to negotiate compensation for Marshall.
Klis suggests that Marshall won't sign the tender until he's assured that he's being traded, and that the Broncos could take the second of Seattle's two first-round picks for Marshall, or could even take Seattle's second-round pick (now the 60th pick overall) and one of the Seahawks' two fourth-round picks for Marshall.
Another trade possibility is the Seahawks packaging their two restricted free agent interior offensive linemen, together, or separately along with a draft pick, for Marshall.
With the release of Casey Wiegmann, the Broncos are down to Dustin Fry, a 26-year old who has yet to start an NFL game, at center. Seahawks restricted free agent center/guard Chris Spencer's future in Seattle is at guard, but the Broncos may view him as a starting center. Seattle tendered Spencer, the team's first-round pick in 2005, at the "original round" level, but would likely accept a second-round pick for him. Adding a fourth-round pick may be enough to pry Marshall from Denver.
In addition to needing an experienced center, the Broncos lack depth at guard.
Rob Sims, a restricted free agent guard who the Seahawks tendered at the "original round" level (4th round compensation), has been told to stay away from the team's off-season workout program as they try to locate a trade partner. Sims is big, strong, and athletic, and could be a fit in Josh McDaniels' hybrid "Zone/Power" blocking scheme. With a 2010 draft class light on quality interior offensive linemen, Denver may view Sims as an appealing alternative to a fourth-round draft choice, and along with Seattle's second-round pick, may be enough to get a deal done for Marshall.
Where would that leave the Seahawks' interior offensive line?
One of Seattle's two first-round picks will presumably be spent on a left tackle, freeing up either Ray Willis or Sean Locklear to man one of the guard spots. The Seahawks also expressed interest in veteran free agent guards Ben Hamilton and Chester Pitts, two players who have played left guard for Seahawks offensive line coach Alex Gibbs. If the Seahawks are indeed starting a rookie (Russell Okung, Trent Williams, Bryan Bulaga) at left tackle, Hamilton and Pitts would be ideal, short-term candidates to play between rookie tackle and second-year center Max Unger.
And for as much as former general manager Tim Ruskell ignored the tackle position, he did stockpile the guard position. The Seahawks have Mansfield Wrotto, Trevor Canfield, Mike Gibson, and Steve Vallos for Gibbs, Art Valero, and Luke Butkus to work with.
Sims, Spencer May Help Acquire Marshall

- Ayone else hate Nolan's batman persona?
PirateKing290 3 years ago#71
the biggest problem with Nolan's Batman...he wasn't a detective he was treated like some brainless brawler that just rambled like a idiot while throwing punches
This is not true at all.
Every single one of the movies has a few parts where Wayne has to analyze a crime scene and locate villains. In The Dark Knight, the scene where he looks at where the Joker shot his bullet from and then recreates it on his computer in order to locate the room/the bullet imprint.
It's just not in your face cause Nolan knows what people like. Batman is by no means just a brawler in those movies.

I liked the Nolan movies, but I have some trouble taking batman seriously since his voice is so completely over the top that it loses a bit of its effect. He also keeps using it even if the only people around are the ones knowing who he is.
..Gwaar... Haaaarr... Haaaaaa... Shoulda brought... more priests... Or some... babies... Dang...
Well, his Batman (the hero) is not as badass as the REAL one, but for me, Batman has always been overshadowed by his amazing villains, and the Nolan movies were no different. I loved each movie for the portrayal of the villains and the roller coaster ride of a plot that found great ways to weave different themes and characters in the universe into one coherent picture.

What? Clooney's happy-go-lucky wisecracking Batman was your favorite? The one from one of the worst movies, not just comic book movies, but worst overall movies, EVER, is your favorite?!?
Clooney is best in that he's the only chosen actor who actually fits. Remember, can't blame him for Batman having rubber nipples or being happy go lucky. That's all Schumaker, Clooney's just the actor, he still sticks to the script.
Keaton is too goofy looking to take seriously as Bruce Wayne, Kilmer is too pretty and effeminate, Bale is just hilarious with his kindergarten monster voice.
As someone said earlier, Clooney is pretty much a real life Bruce Wayne as it is. He had the looks, the voice, he fit the role so well, its just a shame he was only cast in the worst possible movie.

I hate those movies & I loathe Nolan's supposed "realistic" take on Batman. Because it's so realistic that the Joker can rig the entire city with explosives using only his crack squad of completely insane followers.
Anyone who says it is "realistic" is using the wrong word. It is more urban and gritty than "realistic". It forgoes the use of anything magical, mystical or cartoony in favor of a more scientific and grounded version of things. For example, the explanation of Ra's al ghul not actually living forever, and the more gritty take on some of the villains. I personally loved that rendition of Gotham and Batman for what its own merits. They were fun movies that had far more depth than most other super hero movies, and they had unique portrayals of classic Batman characters. It was fun seeing characters like the Joker and Scarecrow manifest from what they are in comics into the Nolan universe. I would have like to see how the Penguin or Riddler would have been transformed. At first glance, they seem like they might not mesh well in the Nolan version, but I think that with enough tinkering, they could have been given a more urbanized and gritty approach as well.
No, you're just high.

New England hosts New York as the Revs go for their sixth straight appearance in the conference final. The omens are stacked - if such a thing is possible - high against the Red Bulls, who played spiritedly yet somewhat disjointedly last Saturday in the Meadowlands and couldn't break through against a determined midfield and defense. The Revs are 6-0-3 (14-5 goal differential) in playoff matches at Gillette Stadium since it opened in 2002, and they reached their first final that same season. New York hasn't won at Gillette in more than five years, a span of 12 regular season and playoff games.
NEW ENGLAND vs. NEW YORK
Eastern Conference semifinal, second leg
(Tied, 0-0, on aggregate)
Saturday, 7:30 p.m. ET,Fox Soccer Channel, Fox Sports en Espanol
At least one Red Bull isn't fazed by statistics, or omens. "Who cares how many times we haven't won there? We can beat this team," says brash teenager Jozy Altidore. "We have talked about it, and now it's time to go do it on the field."
Coach Bruce Arena criticized Juan Pablo Angel for his perceived lack of mobility in the first leg, but truth be told Angel and forward partner Francis Doe often played independently, and Altidore, who started the match in midfield, also missed connections with his attacking mates.
Perhaps more offensive thrust from Claudio Reyna, or an earlier insertion of Clint Mathis might have helped, but playoff games on turf are often helter-skelter affairs. Red Bull lacked the polish to serve the right ball and never got the good bounce of knockdown or second ball to apply a decisive finish.
Gillette's synthetic surface is the latest version of FieldTurf and reputedly somewhat superior to that in the Meadowlands. More importantly, many of the Revs have been playing on it since the stadium opened and have developed a knack for playing balls suited to the surface and its dimensions.
Steve Ralston, Taylor Twellman, Pat Noonan and Shalrie Josephare keenly attuned to what works at Gillette, and what can be done against Red Bull New York.
Still, with goal-poacher Angel and raiding midfielder Dane Richards New York is dangerous in any stadium. Its beleaguered back line pitched a relatively easy shutout last week but is liable to crack under the intense pressure it will face this time around, so NYRB will probably need more than a single goal to survive.

When I first caught wind of the incident where Oakland Raiders middle linebacker Rolando McClain allegedly pointed a gun at a man's head and shot inches past his ear, I couldn't believe it. Every thought that came to mind about McClain and the Raiders were not good ones.
I thought, "The Raiders have another dummy on their team. Do they even bother to look into the character of these young men before they draft them? I'm done with the Raiders. I suffer though all of these bad years, they finally look like they're getting their stuff together and an important player pulls something like this."
Then I calmed myself down—figuring due process will run it's course and it may not be anything like it sounds. After finding out what the young man that pressed charges on McClain had to say about the incident, I'm not buying it for a nickel.

London-based GSK, which has operations in and around Philadelphia, will pay Codexis $6 million up front and $19 million more after the technology is successfully transferred. Codexis could make $5.75 million to $38.5 million per project based on GSK's successful application of the technology.
GSK needs this deal because, like other big pharmaceutical companies, it wants to pare costs while developing medicines that boost profits.
