WebProWorld Members,
Did you all ever play 'Mad Libs' when you were younger? I never really thought about how the game got started in the first place until now. Mad Libs has officially been around for 50 years now and the TODAY show has the scoop on how it all came to be. It's actually kinda interesting to see how it was developed. Click on over to read about it... but don't forget to come back here and see if you can help with one of the post! ;)
Our featured post today comes from kgun, who brings up the topic, Real People Don't Have Time for Social Media. The article ask how do regular people get involved with social media and how much time does it really take? If you are a user of all the social media tactics out there and want to contribute your opinion, click here!
As for the remaining three post, the first has a question about google.com around the world. The second has a keyword search issue in MySQL. And the third wants to know how to compress HTML files .

Real People Don't Have Time for Social Media
I found this thought provoking article today. I have mentioned it before:- Social networking can lobby a site to the top.
- It takes time.
The concept of optimality and the 20/80 rule is well known to economists.
"Let's be honest here: we're all a bunch of social media addicts. We're junkies. Whether it's a new Twitter app, a new Facebook feature, or a new social anything service, we're all over it. But we may not be the norm. The truth is, being involved in social media takes time, something that most people don't have a lot of. So how can regular folk get involved with social media? And how much time does it really take?"

Database Discussion Forum Keyword Search Issue in MySQL
I am working on creating a search feature for my web site that will allow customers to search for a product based on the name of the item. The current query is basically:
Code:
SELECT * FROM products WHERE MATCH(product_name) AGAINST ('keyword');
This method allows the results to be sorted by relevance, and is faster than using LIKE or other types of operators. However, this method does not allow stemming. For example, we have a product line related to a sports team called the IronPigs. Users tend to add a space, searching for "Iron Pigs", causing items containing "IronPigs" not to come up in the results.

IT Discussion Forum How to Compress HTML Files ?
I use a shopping cart hosted by Pinnacle cart and Im trying to compress my html files so they are not so big.
Right now my home page is showing 380k. I changed all the images on it to lower but its still showing a lot. I tried to use httpZip 3.8.4 from Port80 Software: Microsoft IIS Web Server Tools & HTTP Solutions but it would'nt work because I do not have a dedicated server.
So if anyone has any suggestions on what I can do to get my pages to load faster and shrink my file sizes I'm all ears.
