Reply A sort of an answer can be found in this topic. Comparison of three operating programs It is possible to find some information on Google. When a bit more information that is found will be given it is more easy to answer the question. The options depend of the costs, the equipment, the specifications of the computer, what the user likes and the programs, that are used. Publishers for instance used to like a MacIntosh operating program because of the handy creativity and publishing program that Mac OS contains and the nice resolutions and the good visibility of the screens of the computers of Apple. -

Changes of the information The video that was presented like a new video and a cover sung by Rebecca Black seems to be a song of another girl singer. The reupload of the song 'Friday' is removed. This indicates that the video was not uploaded by Rebecca Black or with the approval of the mother of Rebecca Black.

Analysis This song has some interesting elements attached to it. The first thing that is different from other songs and videos with a girl singing on Youtube is the business concept of the company that produced the song and the video. The company is in a gap between the house made videos of lots of people and the professional made and expensive produced video clips of the record companies. The price of $ 2,000.00 for a song and a video clip is not very high compared to the costs of video clips of pop artists. The costs of clips produced in a studio can run from $ 10,000 till $ 100,000 or more probably. If the company pays $ 500 for the production the revenues are $ 1,500 for 1 song and 1 video. This means the income of the owners of the company is not very high. The company doesn't produce many videos. The advantage is that a person gets an original new written and composed song for a relative low price. The aspiring singer gets a video produced by other people. This gives the person some experience with a production team. It is imaginable that people would have a hard time to find a song writer and a music composer to write and compose an original new song for them. The company produces a video with a technical sufficient quality. The quality is better compared to the quality of loads of homemade cam recorded videos on Youtube. The most interesting part has to do with the rights. The mother of Rebecca Black has paid an extra $ 2,000 to buy the rights and the master of the song and the video. It is possible that the rights of the writer and the composer are sold too. The ownership of these rights gives the mother of Rebecca Black the opportunity to decide what happens with the video on Youtube. This means the mother of Rebecca Black controls the activities concerning this video. There is not much information about the income earned by the partnership program of Youtube. Estimations can range from $ 1,650 till $ 495,000. It seems the song was sold on iTunes and through Amazone too. And it seems a part of the song is sold as a ringtone. There is not much information about the distribution and the division of the income generated by the song. The owner of the company declared in an interview the company gets and keeps the revenues of the videos. Another interesting element is the position of the song. The song can be seen like a further step into the simplification of pop music. The song can be seen like a step into a new erea too. An interesting parts of the song are that the song relates to the life of young people. The same can be seen with a singer like Justin Bieber. The song can be seen like being a part of the music scene where Disney operates. This music approach seems to react against the rude words and language and the gangster attitude of rap music and hiphop. There is a whole bunch of young people who prefer appropiate music about things of the life of young people like themselves whit music that is not ment to shock people. Conclusion It is possible the song 'Friday' is the start of a new stream of uncomplicated songs about the happy things in life.

Review Part 3 The song states that some person know something. The song doesn't explain what the persons know. Some parts of the song are no complete sentences. According to the English grammar and the usual way the language is used the verb is missing.

It is possible to interpretate the information in the start post in different ways. This means the information in the start post is not clear enough. The information can be interpretated that the visitor of the website fills in a form. The autoresponse mailmachine sends a response to the visitor, who has filled in the form. If that is the case it is possible to use an email account that sends back an emailmessage automatically. The email account sends just one response email. If the forms are used to collect emails to send automatic emails more often it is a different case. Lots of companies send emails regularly after filling in a form or after enlisting for a news letter. This means that it is possible to send emails automatically without the emails ending up in the spam box of the receivers. A case in which the email answering program sends one response email after the form is filled in is a bit different from the case where the email filled in in the form is placed on a mailing list for repeatingly sent emails. Maybe the email answering program is too old.
-
If it is a problem that potential customers get lost it is an option to close the automatic response program. Another option will be to answer the emails by hand.Some email accounts have the option to send an automatic response by themselves. It is possible those email responses don't end up in the spam box.

Review. Part 2. Ark Music Factory Ark Music Factory offers to produce a video of a song. The price is $ 2,000.00. For $ 4,000.00 the rights and ownership of the video and the song and the masters of the video and the song are sold too. It seems Ark Music Factory is not a regular professional record company. A sort of an audition is needed. Strange things are that the singer pays for the production of the video. And it is strange that the video is shown on the Youtube website of Ark Music Factory. The song is presented by Ark Music Factory. The video is a low budget production. Positive points are that an aspiring singer gets the opportunity to make a more or less professional looking video clip. The video clip gets shown on a channel with loads of views. A negative point is somewhat the amateuristic way the video is produced. The Friday video It seems Rebecca Black skipped the audition part. The video and the song contain some strange elements. The singing voice is very much autotuned. An autotune is a computer program that changes the level a song is sung. An autotune can turn a song offtune into intune in a digital way.

Review Review of the video and the song and the production The information on several websites about the song 'Friday' by Rebecca Black is interesting. The song gives the impression that the singer has to decide where to sit. Options are a front seat and a back seat. Before the decision occurs the lyrics state that the person who is involved in the action is standing at the bus stop. The fact, that a decision arises and the mention of the bus stop indicate a school bus. The age of the singer agrees with this notion. The information online assures this notion. The article says that the production company didn't have enough money to hire a school bus to make the video according to the lyrics. The convertible owned by the father of Rebecca Black or step father is used. This makes sense since the video production is a low budget production. The friends of Rebecca Black figure in the video. Some of the parts like the driving along the road are made with a blue screen. The change from the school bus, like the lyrics imply into a convertible, make the video and the song even more ridiculous. Ridiculous and silly parts Apart from the obvious school bus that is missing some other ridiculous elements are present in the video. The start of the song seems a copy of the song Tik Tok by Kesha. Kesha: 'Wake up in the morning' Rebecca Black: 'Seven a.m., waking up in the morning' The rest of the lyrics hold some elements, that can be considered to be ridiculous. The main part is created by the emphasis that is put on usual activities that are made into huge important things with like world wide meanings. Another ridiculous element that is mentioned online is that a boy of about 14 years old is supposed to drive a car. The missing of seat belts adds to this picture. The appearance of the adult singer who seems to chase the school bus and who seems to know the name of the school girl who is in the school bus while the adult is driving behind the school bus adds a weird and creepy compnent to the video and the song. The adult singer seems to be put in the song with the reason and the thought, that a song aint a song until some rap occurs. This seems to be a copy of an element from the song of Justin Bieber: 'Baby'. Probably other artists have clips with featuring rapper singers too. Some other parts of the content of the lyrics and the video are considered to be silly and ridiculous too.

Friday Song by Rebecca Black Lyrics Lyrics of 'Friday' by Rebecca Black From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/friday-lyrics-rebecca-black.html

Rights Copy rights and creator rights Rights to a song depend heavily on the agreements that are made. In a lot of cases the record company owns the copy rights of the records the company produces. The composer of the music of the song and the writer of the lyrics of the song can own the rights to their part of the production. The musicians can be hired to just produce the music in the studio without any right regarding the song and the record. Amateurs produce videos on Youtube. It depends what the rules, Youtube uses, if they lose their rights to their video production. It is possible that the creator of the video is the owner of the copy rights. With copy rights is here ment the right to make a copy of a work in order to show the work to the public. In this post the work is a video. The information was, that the production of a video at Ark Music Factory costs $ 2,000.00. Parents of people of the age of probably around 15 and 16 years pay this amount of money to let this company produce a video with the person singing. The video company offers two songs. The singer can chose the song. The video company produces the video. The special thing is that the video is released on the channel of the music company. In most cases people make a video and upload the video on their own channel. Eventual earned revenues are earned by the owner of the Youtube channel. The revenues of a video can range from $ 0.01 to $ 2.50 for each 1,000 views. There is no information available about the way the money, that is earned by the Friday video is split between the video recording company and the singer and her parents. The website with the link in the start post announces, that the mother of Rebecca Black paid $ 2,000.00 for the production of the video. She paid an extra $ 2,000.00 for the master of the video. It seems that this means that the mother of Rebecca Black bougth all the rights belonging to the video. It seems the mother of Rebecca Black is now the owner of the master of the video. The master of the video is probably the sort of record material that holds the original footage. Being this the case the mother of Rebecca Black and her representatives are able to decide what happens with the video on Youtube. They filed a complaint against the record company. This probably indicates that the representatives stated, that the record company hosted the video on their Youtube channel without being the owner of the copy rights of the video and without the permission of the owner of the copy rights. Regarding the possible high revenues of the video with its 165 million views before the video was taken off Youtube the extra payment of $ 2,000.00 might turn out to be a very valueable investment of the mother of Rebecca Black. The article states, that other videos of Ark Music Factory got a few thousand views. This is not completely true. Other videos of young singers posted on the channel of Ark Music Factory got several million views. The most viewed video on their channel at the moment has got 10 million views. The mother of Rebecca Black decided to buy the copy rights and the owner rights of the video in spite of the in a way low amount of views other videos had at the time the agreement was made. It seems this action has made sure the mother of Rebecca Black has full power and full decision rights about what happens with the video of her daughter. On a personal note a bit of appreciation of the decision of mrs. Kelly, the mother of Rebecca Black, can be expressed here. From an article online of the New York Times: Another article online The mother of Rebecca Black and Rebecca Black

The last three months Rebecca Black had a video hit on Youtube. The video got 165 million views. The video contains a song by Rebecca Black. In the song she describes the joy she experiences when it is Friday. The song and the video are generally considered to be of a very low quality. The voice and the singing are heavily autotuned. The video is made by a company. The company asks about $ 4,000.00 for the production of 1 video. The parents of young people pay this money so their child can make a video that looks a little bit like a professional made video clip of a professional artist. The videos are made with class mates and friends and school mates of the person who pays for the video production. This is explained to make it understandable that the company who produces the video doesn't necessarily uses high creativity and artistic standards for the production of the videos, the writing and composing of the songs and the choise of the singers. The videos have a decent technical quality. The video got a lot of attention. Rebecca Black is now famous in a way for being what is considered to be the singer of the worst song ever and the person performing and singing in what is seen like the worst video ever made. Rebecca Black has been invited for several talk shows in the United States of America. A few days ago a video of the famous female singer Katy Perry is released. Rebecca Black has a role in this video clip. Today Rebecca Black released a new video. It seems this video is made by another video production company. A few days ago the representatives of Rebecca Black made copyrights claims against the video Friday. The video was uploaded on the video channel of the video production company. The video is taken down by Youtube. The rumour is that there are money issues between Rebecca Black and the video production company. It is said that the company that produced the video had put the video in the rental video area of Youtube. It costed $ 2.99 to watch the video. It seems the revenues of this move weren't shared with Rebecca Black. Links The new video of Rebecca Black 'Friday' by Rebecca Black, new upload. The Youtube channel of the video production company.

Reasons to make a backup, part two Youtube A reason to make a backup regularly and daily is a part of the use of Youtube. Accounts on Youtube are still hacked. Passwords are stolen by emails and Youtube messages. Sometimes a partnership is offered. The Youtube user needs to confirm its ownership of an account by telling the password of the account. Some people like very much to become a partner of Youtube. And without much thinking a response to the message is sent including the password. Some accounts get closed by Youtube. Reasons can be complaints, the abuse of the service of Youtube and inappropiate content. The videos are lost when the account is deleted. When an account is lost because the password is obtained by somebody who is not the creator of the account a backup of the videos is useful. When the backups of the videos are available a new account can be made in five minutes. All what is needed beside a computer and internet access is a new email address. And when the new account is created the videos can be uploaded on the new account. Lets say that in one afternoon the new account can be online and running with all videos visible again. The experience of some users show that after three months a new account and new videos on the new account get more views and more visitors and more subscribers than the old, lost and hacked account had and got before the loss and the hacking. The pleasure and the relief of being back in business with all the original footage uploaded on the channel can be huge. The pleasure to be able to avoid the sadness the loss of the channel can cause are worth the effort to keep several copies of the videos spread over the country stored in different ways. Youtube is not a safe place to store a video. The risk of losing the video is pretty big. Videos get deleted for being flagged without a serious reason. Videos are taken down because of copy right infringement claims. These claims can be false. But still Youtube takes a video down without consulting the owner of the video. A recent example is the video of Rebecca Black. The representatives of the young American teenage singer Rebecca Black made copyrights claims about the Youtube hit video Friday. The video is taken down by Youtube. The company that produces the video and Rebecca Black ony have access to their own video file when they have the original video saved and when they have copies and backups of the downloaded video.

Reasons to make a backup There are several reasons to make a backup. And there are several reasons because there are several ways digital information can get lost. The first reason is a human mistake. This happens often. Files still vanish because of the wrong command. And usb-sticks can get lost during a trip outside the house, the office or the building. Another option is a mistake made when computer parts are renewed. There is a sort of scedule that computers of individuals and companies get renewed every three till five years. And with every change of the components of a computer and of the complete computer the risk that digital information gets lost is present. The second reason consists of technical issues. The parts of a computer are machine parts. And machine parts can stop to operate. And technical machine parts can break. And servers crash, hard disk break and ssd's stop to function. The third reason that can be mentioned consists of electricity issues. Especially an ssd can stop working because of a sudden stop of the electricity supply. Most ssd's don't have a controller that controls the safe storage of information when the electricity suddenly stops. And there are many reasons why an ssd can face the sudden cut off of the electricity. This happens for instance when the computer is closed using the on/off button. Another reason consists of events that happen from outside. Burglars can steal all the computer equipment and all the information media like external disks, usb-sticks and dvd's and cd's. All equipment and all media in a building can get lost by a fire too. Another possibility is more rare but it still happens. The investment brigade of the tax department can rally a company and take all computers and computer storage material with them. It is a common view that lots of boxes with documents and computers and computer storage material are carried out of a building. When the company saves backups on another location, not known by the tax officials, the information of the activities of the company are still available by the company owners and company workers. The case of nature disasters is mentioned before. This can't be considered to be rare occasions. Maybe each month a nature disaster occurs somewhere in the world. Recent examples are the earth quakes in New Sealand and Haïti, the floods in Australia and the midwest of the United States of America, the tsunami in Japan and the tsunami in India and other coasts in the region. And in such cases backups can help to minimize the damage.

Backup drill Suppose this imaginational scenario. Five minutes after reading this the computer freezes. The screen shows just one message when the computer tries to start up. The message announces, that no hard disk can be found. The hard disk crashed. First try to backup the information from the last backup. Does it work? Second thought: Did any precious information get lost since the last backup and the crash of the hard disk? For some information is a daily backup useful. And there are ways to store documents that have been finished just after they have been finished. Options are to send them in an attachment to the same email address and to burn them to a dvd or a cd. Backups are sort of important for customers and companies. Forums of computer users still get questions about the recoverage of files. And data recoverage programs are still used. It even seems that recoverage companies earn a lot by attempts to get data back from a broken hard disk. It seems the prize depends from the size of the hard disk. It seems to, that a data recoverage company might charge something starting at $ 5,000.00 for attempts to get data back. The reason that these companies charge these high prices is that they try to open the hard disk and to move the inner plate into another hard disk cover. This has to be done in a dust free room. And it is very expensive to get a room free of dust. Google shows lots of addresses of data recoverage companies. This means, that people still lose data. Making a daily backup is probably not a usual task for lots of people. It sometimes happens that just and only after the hard disk is broken and after the information is lost some people realize the value in economical and emotional sense of the lost data. Since making a backup is relatively easy and cheap and in some cases for free there are lots of reasons for sceduling the construction of backups on a daily base. The same goes for making and storing copies of files that are just created. Examples are filled in forms, letters, manuscripts, webpages, coded programs. When the file gets lost due to a unhandy move or by a technical issue the ability to return to a saved copy of the file can be a big relieve. And once it happens all the efforts made in the past prove themselves to be valuable and worth the time. A backup on a second hard disk in the same computer is usually not considered like a safe and useful way to backup a file. The risk to overwrite the file by unintentionally giving the wrong command is too big. It needs some time to get more information about this. From a comprehensive backup view it is recommended to keep the backup storage media and the computer gear that is used daily apart. The risk of losing the data from a usb-stick when the usb-stick is used for daily computer tasks is mentioned before by somebody else in the post about the storage of a copy of a file on a usb-stick. Only when the usb-stick is only used for the storage of a backup and when the usb-stick is kept on a different location far away from the computer with the original file it is acceptable to call the copy of the file part of a backup. And a complete backup consists of at two copies of the original file saved on different media and kept on different locations far from eachother and far from the computer with the original file. And at least two copies are needed. More copies on different media stored far apart from eachother improve media the quality of the backup. With media is meant the different way a file can be stored and saved. This includes prints that are printed out on paper. Like letters, information, articles and manuscripts can be saves in written form. When the files on a computer get lost the file can be restored by typing over the written text. The file might have been lost but the creative work is still available. There are examples of people who left and lost usb-sticks in a rented car and in a cab.

Website and server problems It happens, that servers fail. This causes, that a website is offline. This doesn't happen often. But it happens. With free webhosts it seems to happen more often. And free domain name registrars seem to have a higher failure rate too. There are ways to make more sure that the website stays online when the webhost and the domain registrar face a problem with the server. Lets suppose the website is offline. Here are some solutions. The first step is to change to another webhost immediately. A free website of a free webhost can be up in 15 minutes. The time to get a website of a paid webhost depends of several things. It is possible that the payment for the purchase of a paid website from a paid webhost has to arrive first at the bank account of the webhost before the order of a website space is accepted. If this is the case it depends from the time the bank transfer takes to know how long it takes to get a new website. It seems the orders at Xisto - Support are accepted and managed manually. This means it can take several days before a new webspace is available. It is faster to open a new website than to wait for the webhost to solve the server problem. The solution to open a new website is in the hand of the website owner. The solution of the server problem is something the webhost has to do. The website owner can't influence this activity very much. Another option is to order a second website space in advance like a spare website space. When a problem occurs with the first website the domain name can be changed to the second website. A domain name can point to a website by using URL forwarding. A change works immediately. The change of domain name servers can take 30 minutes till 48 hours. Another option is to have a welcome webpage. The main webpage can be reached by clicking on a link on the welcome webpage. It is possible to host the welcome webpage and the main webpage at different webhosts. When the main page is offline the link on the welcome page to the spare main page can be changed in five minutes. It seems to be handy to have a different domain name registrar that is not the webhost. When the website and the service of the domain name registrar face problems the website and the service of the webhost are probably still online and running. An option is to have a spare webdomain name and a second website at different name registrars and different webhosts. This makes it possible to switch the moment a problem is seen. It seems that there is not much information available about solutions to solve server problems and to make sure a website stays online. The damage of a website that is offline can be big. A webshop looses income when the webshop is offline. A company that gets his customers online looses new customers when the customers can't see the website. This means that the costs of a second domain name and a second webhost account and webspace can be less high compared to the loss a website that is offline can cause.

(...) Means, that a part is taken out of the quoted text. A backup can be seen like two copies of a file stored on different media on different locations. It is possible to have different opinions about the usefulness of a backup. The idea is that after a big disaster the situation that files are still safe is less important. This depends of the importance of the values. When people had to leave New Orleans after the hurricane Katrina it might have been helpful to have backups of the files on the computer. Precious pictures of children, relatives and holidays will still be available. Documents and sent letters would still be stored. So the backup would easen the pain of the disaster. The backup makes sure the disaster doesn't get bigger than necessary. Lets imagine the situation of a company. When the company needs to move because of the water like in the case of the hurrican Katrina the files and information of the company are safe in the backup place. The company can move into another building, restore the files from the backup and the company is back in business again. Emails with customers are still there. Lists of customers are still ready to use. The financial information can be used like before. When the company doesn't have backup in another town the company would have a much bigger problem to start again. A webstore that lost its content because of server problems caused by the hurricanen continue with the back up of a database. In the case of the nuclear disaster in Japan it is very obvious that backups of the nuclear system and the computer programs are needed to control the nuclear plant. In the case of the disaster in HaĂŻti the government needs backups to be able to build up the nation. When the American soldiers arrived on the airport they set up tables with laptops running on solar cells near the landing strips. They gathered information of American citizens in HaĂŻti. The first thing they did after putting the information of the citizins in the laptop was to send the American citizens home by air plane. Backups of the information of the American Ambassee would have been helpful to find which American citizens were on the island.
