I am spending today looking and learning how to create Google Adwords video ads. I love the concept, however I am mystified by a few things.

I am using Adobe Premiere pro and consider myself as novice when it comes to using it. I've got a nice DV camera that shoots at TV quality.

I did some preliminary testing on outputting some simple videos and my file size was 500kb plus.

I searched around for other people who are blogging and talking about Adwords Video Ads - Keeping it under 50kb and couldn't find any/many people talking about this yet.

Simply put, how much information, graphics can you put into a video when you've got to keep it under 50kb? And then have audio to boot?

If anybody has experience with keeping your adwords video ads file size under 50KB... please do leave a comment.

I've built many tools for my website. I've spent the time learning PHP, mysql, CSS, HTML etc. There are just some things that I can't and won't build.

Some software is too complex to build, and too time consuming. It's more cost efficient to buy it than make it.

I've just purchased the resale rights for Website Equalizer products. I am currently using them myself and really love them. Importantly these tools save me tons of money and give me alot of publishing power that I couldn't possible develop by myself.

I've been using MIRC for a a few years now, but had only a limited scope.. I didn't realize that there was such a large amount of servers, networks etc.

I got onto EFnet which is huge, and started looking around. They've got chats for all types of subjects.

I looked for a topic on EFnet for one of the products I am selling. There were quite a few. I don't believe in spamming the chats, however, when I got into the chat room, there were quite a few people who were asking questions, that my product would solve.

Hmmm... relationship marketing!!

I also believe in getting to know people within good time. Not jump into a chat room and start spamming people. Getting to know people takes time, however builds credibility and trust.

The lights started to go on and I started to get a whole bunch of new ideas for marketing.

I thought I would pass that along. IRC... efnet and others are a great place to network with like minded people!

Bill Gates if finally retiring! from Money.cnn.com

There's a guy who's done alot over the years, and has been highly praised and criticized for it.

I remember people who hated Bill Gates for having such a big monopoly and controlling power over operating systems and computers. They called his company microslop etc etc etc. (this was more towards the days of Windows 95.)

Back then I said that Microsoft, like all companies would have it's peak, and then start into the maturing process. Back then I said it would take another 10-15 years.

So now Bill gates is retiring in 2008. good for him. He's worked hard.

What's he going to do next? Start knitting, and join the local lawn bowling club. I can't see Bill Gates retiring any time soon. That would put him in an early grave.

It's good that he's giving everybody 2 years notice. That's a nice thing to do.

Well Bill Gates... hats off to you. I hope the next leg is as fun as the first.

I've parked my car for the summer, taken the plates insurance off the car, (so I won't be tempted to drive it).. I'm going to bicycle and walk to work for the summer.. until end of September.

What does getting in shape have to do with website marketing?
After sitting all winter I've put on a whole bunch of extra pounds and I need to get that off.

So far, in the last three days, my energy level has increased quite a bit, although my bones are aching like crazy.

Website marketing requires a sharp mind at all times.. Sitting behing the desk 12 hours a day, will dull the mind after a while with out any exercise to offset it.

It's a little extreme to park the car and take the bicycle, however, that's about the only way I'm going to get off my butt and start exercising.!
