500 tasks may seem like a great many, but most of these are easily achieved. Just staying alive or taking your first jump can cross an achievement off your extensive list, and these little things begin to add up fast. However, some achievements will require a bit of dexterity to complete, such as a timed race. Others will take a little bit of thought, such as taking a silly quiz, solving a maths puzzle, or just figuring out the achievement hints and how to use your ghost powers…
There are also a number of mini games in the arcade zone, such as Space Invaders and Pong, which you can try to win (or lose!) as part of your set of tasks. Collect the coins and buy useful items. Blow up the earth or bring it back again. There’s plenty of things to try in Goime 500! Play this game and many others at Games.co.za!

I wrote a post about creating a Google+ page and I’ve received some great feedback from readers, so I wanted to take this a little further and share some of the things I’ve picked up since Google announced the combination.
Google+ is not really any different to Twitter or Facebook in the sense that building an audience is important, an audience shows credibility, trust and leadership, so the same applies for Google+ – grow your circles. The easiest way to grow your circles is to place a Google +1 button on your website (http://www.google.com/webmasters/+1/button/), this allows people to automatically add you to their circles. As a side tip, I’ve seen a lot of the big news websites doing clever things like encouraging readers to join their circle on posts that are related to any topic around Google – The same applies for posts about Twitter or Facebook, if you think about it, someone who’s reading a post on Twitter, for example, would be more inclined to follow you on Twitter than like your Facebook page, so be clever, encourage your audience to “join” your social networks relative to the content they are reading.
Of course, one of the most important things about your Google+ page is to ensure that you have a plan of action, that you’ve thought about the content you want to produce and share, and that you have a long term goal that you head towards. Like any form of search engine optimization, when it comes to writing content, make sure your content is unique, make sure it’s carefully thought out and communicated in a manner that might attract other Google+ users to share your content – this really is the powerful part, getting people to share your content (along with a good SEO strategy) and you will find yourself dominating the SERPs once again because you’ll have organic search and social search covered.
Something I’ve started looking at is the different types of circles you can create and thus group people together. Just like Twitter lists, in Google+ you can create your circles, fill them up with relevant people and then engage with the different circles with content that would probably interest them – this segmentation of users is highly effective.
It’s really important to recognize what Google is doing, how they are shaping things and how to keep up to date with all their changes.

Particles are further classified according to size: in terms of diameter, coarse particles cover a range between 10,000 and 2,500 nanometers. Fine particles are sized between 2,500 and 100 nanometers. Ultrafine particles, or nanoparticles are sized between 100 and 1 nanometers.
The Booklet unfolds like a pamphlet with each side representing a commonly used application or function. Manufacturers can cut it to any size and once it’s worn out, just recycle it. Don’t worry about private information because everything is served from a cloud. Power is supplied by the sun thanks to energy absorbing nanoparticles.
