Money 2.0 – Top 8 Ways to Spend Your Bitcoins

Bitcoin is in a funny place right now. Many people are cautious to buy ethereum, bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency because of its unpredictable value, while others won’t sell because they’re convinced the price is about to skyrocket.

The solution to this is for us to stop thinking of bitcoin as an investment to either hold or sell, and start using it as a real currency. Things are looking encouraging as BitPay – a bitcoin payment service – recently reached an all-time high of 200,000 transactions in one month.

This isn’t surprising considering the many shops, retailers, and brands that are now accepting bitcoin as payment. Let’s take a look at some of the best ways to start spending your bitcoins online and locally.

1. Food

The first real-world bitcoin transaction was back in 2010. Two pizzas were famously bought for 10,000 bitcoins in Jacksonville, Florida. At the current exchange rate of around $1000 USD, that pizza cost 10 million dollars. Undoubtedly the most expensive pizzas in history.

Spend Your Bitcoins pizza

Of course, these early adopters had no idea how quickly bitcoin would take off. Now you can buy all sorts of food with bitcoin, including pizza, at a much more reasonable price.

PizzaForCoins.com is a service that accepts bitcoins as payment, then orders your pizza for you. This isn’t the most efficient way of ordering pizza, but it’s great for some nostalgia on Bitcoin Pizza Day!

If you aren’t in the mood for pizza Foodler offer a food delivery service and accept bitcoins.

2. Travel

As a truly global currency untied to any government or location – travel seems a very natural way to spend it.

Spend Your Bitcoins virgin galactic

To get to your destination, CheapAir.com and BTCTrip both offer flights in exchange for bitcoin. Although, not every destination is covered. When you arrive you can you can book a hotel with Expedia who have been accepting bitcoin since 2014. For a directory of smaller stores around the world, you can check out bitcoin.travel – a worldwide directory of bitcoin friendly businesses.

If you are feeling really adventurous, Virgin Galactic accepts bitcoin payments for their space travel. A nice metaphor for bitcoins amazing rise into the stratosphere!

3. Learning

Bitcoin is a new and cutting edge technology, so it makes sense to pay for tech education with the cryptocurrency. Treehouse is an online technology school that does this and offers courses in web design, web development, mobile development and game development. If you are looking for a more general learning platform, Skilljar is another online learning platform with a similar offer.

4. Entertainment

If you’re a gamer you’ll be happy to hear you can buy games from Steam. The motivation behind this was to internationalize its service, bringing its games to those in emerging markets that find it difficult to pay with credit card. You can also try DISH TV, India’s largest direct-to-home TV company.

5. Technology

Some of the largest names in tech have already jumped on the bitcoin bandwagon.

Spend Your Bitcoins microsoft

Dell and Microsoft accept bitcoins for many of their products. You can buy pretty much anything on the Dell online store, including many physical products.

At the moment Microsoft only offer their digital products and content in exchange for bitcoins, including

  • Windows apps and games
  • Xbox games and music
  • Windows Phone products

If you run a business that accepts bitcoins yourself, you can spend them on your business. WordPress and other hosting companies such as Namecheap now accept bitcoin payment.

Or, if you are one of the many in bitcoin for privacy reasons, there are a ton of VPNs such ExpressVPN that accept bitcoin as payment – enhancing your level of anonymity even further.

6. Charity

If you’re feeling charitable, the BitGive Foundation is dedicated to connecting bitcoin users to philanthropic efforts in developing countries.

Or, in the open-source spirit of bitcoin, the Wikimedia foundation’s commitment is to “Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge”. Turns out there is more than one way to change the world with bitcoin!

7. Shopping

Some of the biggest online retailers have made the leap to accepting blockchain-based money. Overstock was one of the first and remains a big advocate of bitcoin. The online store offers discount prices for overstocked items. You can also try the ecommerce giant Rakuten to get your online shopping fix.

One trick to open up a large number of retailers to your bitcoins wallet is to purchase gift cards. Through sites like Gyft and eGifter you can buy gift cards for stores like

  • Target
  • Whole foods
  • Amazon
  • Victoria Secret
  • Home-Depot
  • Uber
  • Ebay
  • Dominos
  • Hundreds more

Simply use your bitcoin wallet to purchase the gift cards of your choice, and then get the stuff you want. Also, keep a lookout for discounts, retailers have offered up to 30% discounts for paying with bitcoins in the past.

8. Local Stores

There is also a growing number of offline stores that accept bitcoin. Naturally, these are more difficult to find, but when you do, it’s worth it. Buying a coffee with a scan of a QR code is a unique experience.

To make your search easier you can try one of the marketplaces and directories.

  • Coinmap.org

Of course, at the moment these are most useful if you live in large cities. Over time, these directories will fill out and be useful no matter where you live.

This is Just the Beginning

The global economy works on supply and demand. The more demand there is for a service, the faster the suppliers will improve. Every time you buy a product or service using bitcoin you improve the bitcoin economy and become a part of one of the fastest growing movements in the world.

Your bitcoins aren’t just an investment to horde and hope they increase in value. There are now so many great ways to start using your bitcoins for their true purpose – to buy cool things!

10 Mistakes in Mobile App Marketing Need to be avoided

Human beings gain maturity through mistakes. Though weird, it is the truth. We commit mistakes and learn from our mistakes. So far as mobile app marketing is concerned, even a silly mistake can ruin things. Millions of apps are available in the app stores such as the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. From there, you can assume the tough competition you might have to face. The chance of making mistakes is really high.

*A list of mistakes and how we can avoid them is given below to better your Mobile App Marketing.

10 Mistakes in Mobile App Marketing need to be avoided
Mobile App Marketing

  • Taking mobile experience same as that of the desktop:

If you consider that mobile experiences are not different from the desktop, you are wrong. The user experience of a mobile app has a little in common with the desktop. So, you need to treat the two in different ways. A mobile user tends to switch to other sites quickly than desktop users. For desktop users, you can put a lot of contents; but for a mobile app, you should put only as much content as is required to inform the users. Apart from these, we should not forget that mobile apps can detect our locations that is not possible when a person is using the desktop. So, when you are building your app, you must keep in the mind the differences because the functional and design-related flaws will have a negative impact on your app marketing strategy.

  • Jumping over an app without a proper marketing plan:

Often people get influenced by seeing the download number of an app. But they should understand that this number does not assure it that an app will be successful only by being published in the app stores. If you already have an online presence (a website or landing page), it would help you to market your app properly. You can let your customers know that you have an optimized app whenever they visit your website. Before creating an app, you should make yourself familiar with the most common platforms for mobile apps. App stores can be regarded as mediums through which people can discover apps. Still, many app owners neglect basic things to optimize their apps in the app store like the app title, keywords and description of the app. You need to utilize all the channels including your email list, official Facebook page, a Twitter account to promote your app. In short, don’t go directly to build an app without paving the path of its marketing.

  • Trying to make a mobile site act as the app:

If you publish an app which is basically the launcher for your mobile website, it will give your customers the impression that you have the least idea about mobile. If this is the case, they obviously do not take much time to find an alternative option. In most of the cases, the native apps are made for several Internet connections and these are made for a fixed period of time. There are many entrepreneurs who try to build a mobile app that is a replica of their website. Well, if you are thinking to embrace this approach, then you should discard your plan as soon as possible. This is not the right approach. Apart from this, you should not employ a number of platforms; rather you should employ a cross-platform based language for programming that helps to get native apps suitable for several environments. For instance, you can consider Appcelerator, PhoneGap, Xamarin etc.

  • Neglecting the customer base:

Do you know where the true power of mobile comes? It comes from the individual nature of the device. When the user downloads your app, they will actually carry you in their pockets. Now, you can understand what’s the importance of consumers. You need to let them know how important they are for you. For this, you can create communication channels for two ways. In this way, you can make each customer feel special. It is quite natural that your customers who are using your app will have questions, advice, and issues. With the advancement of the app market, the demand of the customers is rapidly increasing.  The main areas where you must please your customers are responsiveness and customer service. Their ratings and reviews mean a lot for your app. So, you should never ignore your consumer base.

  • Insisting too much on CPI ( cost per installation):

A low cost per installation or CPI is very helpful for those marketers who want to get the most within their limited budget. But you should not make your app marketing strategy centred around it. In most of the cases, people who install your app do not produce the revenue, only a few high-quality customers do that. So, you can optimize the cost per loyal user in order to reap all the benefits of paid ads. Too much dependency on the CPI is not good for your mobile app marketing.

  • Spending less on the ad:

Your budget may be limited, but you cannot get a satisfying result if you do not spend on the ad. You should not pick simply one or two networks for advertising. It can prevent you to reach a wide section of your audience. You need to include both local and worldwide networks in your mobile app marketing strategy. For instance, you should not only look for mobile app marketing Orange County (or any other city you reside in), rather you should try to get hold over the global market. For this, you need to spend on multiple networks.

  • Skipping optimization across and within the networks:

Have you skipped optimization across or within the networks? Then you have committed another mistake that can affect your mobile app marketing. There are some networks which would be best particularly for your kind of apps. You should be specific about particular apps. Sometimes, ads that are doing good on one network may fail to do anything on other networks. So, do research, point out the helpful sub-segments of traffic both across and within the networks.

  • Depending on multiple analytical sources:

All of your advertising channels will give you reportings in order to track the results. It can make you confused; even it can misguide you. What you actually need is an inclusive view of all of your campaigns, rather than analytics from multiple sources as that can drag you into a confusing position. So, try to find a partner who can help you to track all of your campaigns together.

  • Partnered with media not fully devoted to mobile marketing:

When your main aim is to market your mobile app, you should choose a media partner which focuses fully on mobile. Often app owners ignore mobile advertisements while the long-term success of an app depends on the mobile advertisements.

  • Missing to interpret the value of App Store Optimization:

Do you know what is actually app store optimization or ASO? Basically, it is a process through which you can optimize your app to help it reach to more people. In most of the cases, people do not have sufficient knowledge of ASO and therefore, they miss some important factors. To avoid your loss, you need to keep these factors in your mind such as:

  • Each platform has a different set of terms and rules:

It is very important to know about the terms and practices of each platform you are going to use. You should be aware of the differences between the two platforms like iOS and Android.

  • The assumption is the base of ASO:

App store optimization is entirely based on assumption. Apple and Google do not offer the exact search and competition data. So, the businesses, along with the third-party platforms need to do vast research on it.

  • ASO is a long process:

You should not expect ASO offering results overnight. It is a long process that requires testing, measuring, and functioning in order to reach the final outcome. So, you should keep patience.

A Final Takeaway:

No one can deny that mobile apps are becoming inevitable for bridging the gulf between the businesses and their customers. Therefore, it is very important to do mobile app marketing properly. If you can avoid these ten common mistakes, you can enjoy all the benefits of having a mobile app for your business.

What Is OCR Software And How To Use It

PDF is the most advanced text format that’s available right now. What makes this format so good is the fact that it’s able to present documents without needing the help from third party apps, hardware or software. There are many PDF converters on the web right now but not all of them are as good as the others. What makes the biggest difference between them is the amount of features they present.

OCR software benefits

What Makes A PDF Convertor Great?

There is a simple way of making the difference between a good PDF converter and great PDF converter. A good and reliable PDF converter will always offer free ocr software. Having this feature will come in quite handy. What does OCR do? Well, basically it allows users to convert different documents and images in to PDFs. For example users can take a picture of a restaurant menu and convert in to a PDF. Now the restaurant menu will be searchable and editable.

Pro Tip! Download teamviewer or Use Teamviewer without installing.

Why Is OCR Important?

This software has many purposes, and all of them have been developed especially to save time. Instead of being required to rewrite an essay, users will be able to simply put the file through OCR and convert it to PDF. Even better, the converting process is quite simple. All that users are required to do is to simply scan the designated picture or document.

Another great use for OCR is that users can take any handwritten files and then convert them into PDF. This feature will come in quite handy whenever users have to search through a pile of files for a specific paragraph. In fact, surveys are showing that companies that work with paper documents are using OCR to store data.

How Does It Work?

Even though the converting process is really simple what happens behind the covers is quite complicated. The developers behind OCR equipped it with all existing fonts and characters and this is how OCR is able to tell what’s written in a picture. The software takes all the information it finds in the picture and then compares it to its entire font and style database. The comparison is then put in a basic spell checker and that’s how the information comes out.

Where Can OCR Software Be Fund?

OCR is usually stored in the PDF converter software, but it can also be found online. Readers should know that they can scan any document or picture they want through OCR online. There are many PDF software developer teams that offer this service such as Soda PDF Online.

Top 3 Drones Currently on the Market

Top 3 Drones Currently on the Market

Looking for a drone, but don’t know where to start?  You came at the right place.

Whether you are into drone racing or aerial photography, we are featuring the 3 hottest drones currently on the market that will totally give you the thrill you are looking for.

DJI Mavic Pro

Portability is the latest trend in drones right now. Pilots want a drone that they can take anywhere. However, when we say compact it always translates into fewer features, thus lesser capabilities.

DJI Mavic pro top 3 drones

But it was not the case with the DJI Mavic Pro.

You see, it is one of the most portable drones in the market, which happens to be loaded with features you find in its predecessor, the Phantom 4. Imagine all the things we love about Phantom 4, only this time, smaller and lighter.

DJI has really outdone themselves this year and it showed on this latest drone. To make Mavic portable, instead of the usual fixed-arm hull, they featured a set of folding arms and props. This clever configuration  allows the drone to fold down neatly. It can turn into a neat little package the size of a brick, but not quite as heavy. Even with the rotors and battery, the whole unit weighs just over one and half pounds.

Another amazing feature of the Mavic Pro is the OcuSync, an all-new video transmission system which extends Mavic’s maximum range to over 4 miles. It also boosts the drones resistance to interference, even in mild winds. At a shorter range, the OcuSync allows streaming as well as downloading videos and photos at 40 mbps, which is absolutely crazy.Mavic Pro can also fly indoor thanks to its Optical Flow feature which help hold its position even without GPS. Couple it with the new “Tripod Mode”, Mavic is optimized to fly  in tight areas or spaces. Plus, all the features and parts of this gadget is built to last.

There has been a talk about the drone’s camera in terms of how it treats focus. The Mavic lacks the auto focus feature. Instead, it lets you choose the subject. There were a handful of pilots criticizing the drone’s muddy and blurred footage. However, when we tested the drone for ourselves, we got crisp and smooth shots. The trick was to snap focus during the shot.

Though, we certainly love the Mavic Pro, there is one flaw we found with the machine. Its gimbal is held in place with four small rubber bands which seems to us to be a bit fragile. If one of the rubbers snap, then the camera will have trouble stabilizing itself. The result will be shaky, almost Jello-effect photos and footages.

But overall, given the size and the magnitude of features this machine offers, DJI Mavic Pro certainly raised the bar in its category. Combining power and portability, it is easy to see why the rest of the competition is far behind.

Yuneec Typhoon H

DJI with its Phantom series has always dominated the drone marketplace. However, lately Yuneec has been stealing chunks of the drone giant’s market share. And with its latest offering the Typhoon H, it may well change that.

Yuneec Typhoon H top 3 drones

The most noticeable feature that set Typhoon apart is its six rotors instead of the usual four. And it only needs five to fly. So if for some reason you lose a rotor mid-flight, you do not crash or splash immediately. The drone has the ability to recognize the problem and will fly back to home position for repairs.

The second feature we love about this hexacopter is its camera’s ability to swivel 360 degrees. Unlike the P4 which can only pan up and down, the Typhoon allows you to catch images at all angles. It’s landing gear is designed to retract at a flip of a switch so it will not get in the way of your shots.

Another cool ability of the Typhoon H is its use of sonar in avoiding obstacles. In fairness to P4, it has the same avoid tech feature too. But unlike the Phantom’s sense and avoid tech which is based on visual, Typhoon H uses sound pulses. This means the hexacopter can still avoid obstacles in low light and even in pitch dark. This drone is perfect for first time flyers as well. Even if you are not the best pilot, the drone can help you get beautiful and stunning footages. You can put the drone in one of its auto-flight modes so you can focus on panning the camera. Its full suite of auto-flight modes includes Cable cam which allows the drone to fly a route drawn by pre-set coordinates; Orbit Me which tracks the location of the controller and steadily orbits you in a wide circle, Journey which makes the drone takes off automatically and fires off a selfie.

It would be a lot to control for first timers, so we suggest getting comfortable with flying the Typhoon first before you try flying in these auto-pilot modes. On top of all that, Yuneec’s Typhoon H comes with its own controller, the ST16 ground station as other prefer to call it. The ST16 is a beast. You don’t need a tablet or smartphone to fly and use this drone to its fullest. It also has a built-in 7-inch touch screen for streaming live video and displaying telemetry data.

While it is true that the Yuneec Typhoon H promises a really good flying and aerial filming experience, it is not the sturdiest drone in the market. By looking at those thin arms, it feels a bit flimsy compared to the P4. We feel like if we crash it too hard, the drone will not live to fly another day.

DJI Phantom 4 Pro

Dubbed as the king of drones, the Phantom 4 Pro is the most popular quadcopter in the planet. It is packed with premium features and functionality that keeps its competitors a mile away.

DJI Phantom 4 Pro top 3 drones

The phantom series has been DJI’s pride. And with its latest model, DJI took a smart approach in refining and improving the already popular Phantom platform.

In the looks department, you can hardly tell Phantom 4 from Phantom 4 Pro. They are both big, white plastic drones that rests on sturdy-looking legs. However, that is where the similarities end. Under the hood, the most obvious addition in the P4 Pro is the 5 direction obstacle system.

Whereas the P4 has only a forward facing sense and avoid tech, the P4 Pro has sensors on its front, back, left right, and  underside. These sensors actively scan the environment which allows the drone to automatically avoid buildings, trees, lamp posts, benches and any other obstacles it may encounter during its flight. You can even fly through a narrow doorway without hitting the door frames!

More unbelievably, you can fly the P4 Pro for up to the speed of 31 mph and still have its obstacle avoidance system fully functioning. The camera is even bigger, better and more customizable in the P4 Pro. It can shoot 4k video for up to 60 frames per second and still images to up to  20 megapixels. This means that this quadcopter can take more challenging and professional quality images and videos. Even the low light performance is enhanced in the P4 Pro. The result is a smooth, more fluid images.

If there is a flaw in the DJI Phantom 4 pro, it is the fact that it does not share the portability of Mavic Pro. And its price is a whooping $1500. But considering all the bells and whistles the drone has to offer, I say that this drone is arguably one of the best way to spend your money away.

5 Important Things To Know When Buying A Drone

5 Important Things To Know When Buying A Drone

Buying a drone isn’t as simple a process as you may think. Like any specialized piece of technology, there’s a fair bit of background knowledge a person should have before they make a purchase decision. The investment you will need to make when buying a drone means proper research and knowledge are particularly important factors.  This is especially true if you are looking to buy a specialized camera drone; however it is still crucial if you only want a toy-like drone to fly around.

You need to consider some crucial questions and be aware of specific information when researching the purchase of a drone. Consider this list when doing your due diligence.

  • Know Your Acronyms

Not every drone is built to fly. Or, at least, isn’t built to fly right out of the box. That may seem a bit strange (why else would you have a drone if not to fly it?).   Most drones will have instructions that detail how fly-ready it is. This is done via specific acronyms that you should become familiar with.

ARF: “Almost-Ready-to-Fly,” like the name suggests, ARF is used to mark drones that will require an extra essential part if it’s going to fly in the sky. Such components could include a transmitter, receiver, motor, or flight controller. ARF tends to be a fairly broad term, so double-check exactly what’s missing if you spot an ARF drone you like.

BNF: “Bing-And-Fly,” is a term used to designate a drone that doesn’t have its own dedicated remote control. To operate BNF drones, you’ll need to purchase a separate compatible control, if you don’t have one already.

RTF: “Ready-To-Fly” means that the drone in question is ready to hit the skies as soon as you take it out of the box. You may need to charge the battery, but otherwise it’s good to go.

 

Not All Drones Fly The Same

Every commercial may make flying a drone look like a breeze, but that’s often not the case. Almost any flying drone will take a little while to get used to and some will be better suited for speed while others are built for stability. If you want a drone that’s going to require very little practice, then you may need to fork out some extra cash. In general, the more expensive the drone, the easier it is to fly from the get-go.

  • If You Want To Take Photos

One of the coolest parts about having a drone is the ability to take amazing aerial photos. So if you want to get into drone-photography (or “droneography” as some call it) then you need to make sure your drone actually comes equipped with a camera. The addition of a built-in camera will definitely add to your overall bill. For example, one of the best camera drones on the market, the Phantom 4, costs a cool $1,650. The price is usually worth it (the slightly less expensive Phantom 3 is still a safe bet) as you don’t want to skimp on a cheaper model that won’t be able to shoot high quality photos and videos.

  • Flight Times Are Pretty Short

All too many new drone owners are fairly shocked when their new mechanical buddy gives out only after a short stint of flying. Unfortunately, this is a harsh reality when it comes to drones: the battery life is pretty short. Most camera drones can’t stay afloat for longer than 20 minutes. More basic toy drones rarely get above the ten-minute mark. Every model of drone is unique; just don’t assume that your new drone is defective when it can’t fly for too long.

  • Be Aware Of Added Costs

The bill for your new drone can get hefty, but don’t expect the fees to stop there. For truly effective drone use, you’ll want some additional equipment. Extra batteries, an on-the-go charger, and spare propellers are all incredibly useful if you want to use your drone for hours at a time. Also, you may want to factor in some repair costs. Like we said, there’s a learning curve to flying a drone and you may experience some bad crashes during your first few flights.
