Can I Hear Your Web Site?
by: Garland Coulson A web site makes great eye candy, but can your web site engage senses other than sight? Believe it or not, there are actually companies working to add smell and taste to your web sites and emails! For fun, check out www.trisenx.com. At this time, adding smell requires that your web visitors have special hardware, but adding audio to your web site, e-mails or newsletters can be enjoyed by nearly everyone because most computers already have sound cards and speakers. The good news is that it is very inexpensive to add audio to your web site, emails and newsletters and you may already have all the tools you need! Finding or creating sounds. You can search for sound effects to add to your web site using the sound search engine, www.findsounds.com. Windows 98 and newer computers come with a program called Sound Recorder that you can find under the [start], then [accessories] then [entertainment] menu. If you have a microphone for your computer, only a $10 - $99 purchase, you can use Sound Recorder to record audio clips you can add to your web site. I've used this system to create audio versions of my Internet marketing articles as well as audio introductions to different areas of my site. Sound Recorder saves as a .wav file by default, but you can also save it as an .mpeg file Adding the sounds to your web site. Adding the sounds to your web site can be done easily using one of the many popular editing programs available.

online customer service
Netscape Corporation has created the best known secure server technologies. It uses a security protocol called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) that provides data encryption, server authentication, message integrity and optional client authentication for a TCP/IP connection. When a client seeking to purchase online customer service connects with a secure server, they exchange a *handshake* which initiates a secure session. With this protocol, the same server system can run both secure and unsecured web servers simultaneously. This means an online customer service organization or company can provide some information to all users using no security, and other information that is secured. For example, a business that sells online customer service online can have its storefront (merchandise catalog) unsecured, but ordering and payment forms can be secure.
Why are these developments important? As the Internet becomes a way to buy and sell online customer service products and services, financial transactions become essential. Right now, most online customer service transactions involve the exchange of credit card information, either directly over the network, or by phone, to complete a transaction initiated online. Eventually, you will be able to use cash as well as credit, directly over the network.
There are two basic kinds of digital cash, anonymous cash and identified cash. Anonymous cash is just like paying for online customer service with paper cash but it also carries no information about the person making the transaction, and leaves no transaction trail. You create it by using numbered bank accounts and blind signatures. Identified cash, on the other hand, contains information revealing the identity of the person who withdrew it from the bank. Like credit card transactions, identified cash can be tracked as it moves through the system and involves fully identified accounts and non-blind signatures. Whether you use digital cash when purchasing online customer service is entirely up to you. We suggest you employ the purchasing avenues available from the online customer service supplier we recommend.
