iPods are More Than Portable Music Players
Author: admin
With the evolution of technology, companies like Apple have developed mini-multimedia devices called iPods. These small, but sturdy hand held media players have captured the attention of the world as they have sold over 42 million in recent years. They can now hold over 60 gigabytes of your favorite music, videos, data and files that you would like transferred from one pc to another.
There are wireless additions and open source software that can customize the operating system to handle applications designed by individual developers. The versatility of the iPods over palm pilots and other similar devices has made them valuable tools for work and play. It has been reported that some medical firms use them to transfer x-rays and client files from one practice to another while also being used to play medical videos for patient care. An iPod in the hand of a forward thinker can become a powerful tool, which can revolutionize work flow within many industries.
Training videos are another great use for the iPod and with the large storage capacity they can be used to coach through many medical procedures. For example, imagine ambulance services with personnel who carry iPods with videos that explain how to give CPR, deliver babies, perform tracheotomies, amputations or any other critical procedure just in case of emergency. This is just one way that this piece of technology can be used to save lives.
There really is no limit to the usefulness of the Apple iPod when creative imagination takes hold of one. There will always be, of course, the regular videos that it can play while you are on an airplane to a foreign country. It can hold more music than the average jukebox found at dance halls and social halls. It even categorizes your favorite genres and will quiz you about the very music downloaded into the iPod.
With wireless technologies becoming cheaper while covering wider ranges of distance, the iPod can keep constant connection within a corporate setting which can synchronize with everyone who uses the same information.
There are companies who can customize your iPod as well so that it matches your company logos or colors. Mostly the iPod will continue to be the toy that teens and young adults use to watch videos and listen to their favorite songs while adults add the customized features listed above. As storage devices, the possibilities are endless. How will you use yours?

Dance Videos are a dime a dozen in this day and age. On one hand that’s a good thing… more people than ever before are out dancing as well as trying to teach. On the other hand, you gotta know what to look for and which dance videos are the best.
But all in all, that’s ok, because we’ll let you know where to look and what to choose. For starters, check out these sites below, they’re great resources and have a history of making customers happy (as well as good dancers)…
dance videos “>DanceCrazy, dance videos “>SalsaDanceDVD, or The Dance Store
I’m back! That’s right, our Dance Cruise just got back from it’s seven day adventure through the Caribbean (out of New Orleans), and I have to say, it was spectacular. Our large group left out of New Orleans, and visited Cozumel, Grand Caymen, and yes, Jamaica (mon).
After 10 years of dance cruises, this one still managed to hold some fantastic surprises, and will go down as one of our best cruises. It’s amazing how not just our group, but also all of our instructors and event managers, have really perfected the art of dance cruising.
I really had a great time, and yes, I (SalsaCrazy guy), am looking forward to my next cruise.
Our next cruises are in October, and while I will not be onboard those events, I recommend them greatly. The first is sailing with Juan Gil (on a 12 day adventure through the Mediterranean), and is one of the most massive, exciting, and downright adventurous cruises we have ever offered. Twelve days going SalsaCrazy in the Mediterranean? How great is that. Yes, you can register for that one now, http://www.SalsaCruiseCrazy.com (and more details at bottom of email).
The second cruise, with Francisco and Stacy Martinez (7 Days to Mexico), looks to bring back the memories of our many fantastic cruises to Mexico, and sets sail from the West Coast (which is a little closer than Venice, Italy – for the cruise above).
Yes, both of these are SalsaCrazy Cruises, yes, you can book both of them with our partners, DanceFun, and yes, you’ll get some special deals for saying “SalsaCrazy” every other word. Check the website for specifics, or feel free to call in at, 405-282-8989 (or toll fee 866-326-2338) – but don’t forget to mention SalsaCrazy!
What cruise will I be attending next? When is my next Salsa Cruise? I have my eyes set on the early 2013 timeframe for a return to the Caribbean, and I hope to have details on that cruise available on our website within a week or two. Unfortunately, I can’t be on all the cruises (without a clone), so I have to pick and choose my cruises.
But, if you want a dose of SalsaCrazy, or just want to master your salsa dancing, there’s a great way to do it with our dance videos. We have a whole series of dance videos available, both on our own websites, or on Amazon.com (you’re choice), I’ll link to my favorites below:
Learn to Salsa Beginners 3 Pack (On Amazon!)
Salsa Dance Mastery System (Includes 3 pack, plus intermediate, On Amazon!)
Bachata Dance Mastery (3 Pack, On Amazon!)
Yes, even a Ballroom Dance Mastery system, we affectionately call the Wedding Dance Mastery System (but really, it’s the ultimate primer to Ballroom Dance). Note: Even thought it’s April Fools, this is not an April Fools Joke – this product is amazing, and it really does exist!
Plus many more, you can see our full schedule over at http://www.DanceCrazy.com, or on the SalsaCrazy.com Dance Video store (Full money back guarantee – you’ll love these DVDs). So take us home with you – we want to come over.
Oh, and consider a salsa cruise as your next vacation choice! We have the following websites for a singles cruise too. Hope to see you onboard!
