Twitter: AMSA September Link of the Month

Ok, there is no doubt you’ve not heard of Twitter!
This month I share a few Twitter followers that you may also want to follow ( hint, Friday tradition to share worthy followers) beside our own AMSAclub on Twitter (all dirt-bike related!).

If you’re not familiar with Twitter it’s worth a peek. I believe it’s far better than Facebook, Myspace, and other such social spots. Reason being, most importantly you don’t have to join Twitter to view Tweets, you decide if you want to join, it’s a free country unlike those other anti-social wanna-be domains.

We share a few AMSAclub Twitter Followers I’m sure you will enjoy:

Take your time there’s a lot here to digest. You’ll likely need more time than the remaining days of the month. There’s more quality bench racing going on here than your average Web site.

Take your time, you are only as good as your Follows on Twitter.

If I missed someone you feel strongly should be listed please leave a comment and let us know.

If you’re a shopaholic looking for Deals Twitter also offers a fix. Check out my Deals section the Mosh Pit of Free-ness, Coupons, and garbage (live, instantaneous, non the less!)

Last, if www.AMSAclub.org website or our Link of the Months (LOM) are new to you I encourage you to pop over to the Web site to check them out LOM Archive.

iPhone Mx Games, You Bet Ya!

by Jason Parker

Moto X Mayhem

Moto X Mayhem


Moto X Mayhem (99 cents) is a fun physics-based side-scrolling game that’s been popular at the iTunes store in recent weeks, but I’ve been reluctant to write about it. In the game, you use your accelerometer to lean forward or back, and press the screen to accelerate as you navigate your way through a 2D course. You get five lives to try to complete seven different courses in a row to finish the game. The graphics are cartoon-smooth and the controls are excellent, but once you’ve played a few games, you’ll be able to finish fairly easily.

I was reluctant to write about this game because I used to play what I assume was the original–a free game called TG Motocross–at Teagames.com a couple of years ago. At the time, I was obsessed with getting the best times and thought it was a great free time waster (and so was the sequel), but now that it’s on the iPhone, I feel as if it isn’t enough. Teagames hasn’t had any new games for quite awhile, so maybe this iPhone game is its new endeavor. In any case, Moto X Mayhem is quite a good game, but if it added more levels or a way to pull off tricks, I would feel better recommending it at 99 cents. I guess the good news is that you can try it online before you buy.

Internet Marketing Tip II

Here’s another tip to help you get more traffic to your Website business.

Suggest your business website to the Open Directory Project: http://www.dmoz.org

Instructions – How To:

  1. Search for your business name, if it’s there your good (you’re done!)
  2. If not, you now need to locate the best (category name) that you would place your business in.  You may do this by searching using a common key phrase (eg. Musician, Motorcycle Repair, RV Park, Financial Services,…)  You will likely find other businesses listed where you want to be listed. Once you locate the best category click the link near the top “suggest URL” and enter your Website URI, business name, and description, (you’re done!) You’ve built another path to your doorstep (website), enjoy.

If you want more detail instruction read here.

Building links to your website helps your website rankings and listing higher in search engine results.
Best of all this is free!

PS. Another idea, If you are a musician why not put yourself on http://www.last.fm, (I’m actually listening now).

Have a great Labor Day!
