Parchment paper and Ink

Wednesday, September 16, 2009 - Fabio

Painting, acting, writing and singing are just some of the many ways you can use to express who you are, what you think, what do you like and even what you´ve been doing. It doesn’t matter if the things you have to share are positive or not. You might agree with me, it feels so great to do it and it gets better when you realize someone is actually paying attention to your thoughts and sharing his/her own ideas with you.

Times have changed and dramatically. Just some hundreds of years ago, people had only parchment paper and some ink to spread out the word and it was obviously a little bit more difficult to do it.

As I told you, times have changed! Now you just need a computer or actually any little device with internet connection on it and in just a few seconds, everyone, no matter the date, hour or country will be able to find out what you are doing. It is indeed amazing!

Let’s put it this way. Before it was parchment paper and ink, now you have a bunch of social networks like Facebook or Twitter and certainly the unique and multi-task BLOGS. So, my question is: If you have so many tools and ways of sharing your essence, why don’t you do it?

If you do not have a BLOG, then do not worry about it. This one I am using right now, it is yours, too. Ultimate Bet created this space, so all of us (Pro players, employees and certainly our valuable customers) can get to share a little bit more, as the huge family we are.

Not sure if you know, but our Ultimate Bet Blog has a special section to publish and obviously save “eternally” what you have to say. It is called Player’s Voice and it just can’t have a better name. Exactly, it is all about transforming your voice into MAJOR words, pictures and also videos, I´m pretty sure everyone would love to read and watch.

Stephen King´s skills are no required here. Blogging is equal to being natural and honest. 

So, the invitation has been made. If you ever want to share something with all the UB family, you just need to send me an email and I will be glad to share it with everyone out there. The email address is: vip@ultimatebet.com

Remember you can send pictures and videos, as well.

I will be waiting for that brilliant text I am pretty sure you have somewhere in your computer. In the mean time, if you have a minute, make sure to check the blogs my coworkers and I have posted. Hints are always helpful!

Have a great one!

Hey Buddy!

Tuesday, December 23, 2008 - ProductMan

When I was in elementary school, I used to love the days when our regularly scheduled curriculum was conveniently interrupted by some random video screening.  Although many of my classmates complained upon discovering that the VCR wasn’t loaded with the latest Hollywood blockbuster, I couldn’t resist the diversion.  I’m fairly certain that I slept through most of those educational videos, but I do remember various productions that kindly advised us not to talk to strangers, which was apparently all the rage in the late eighties.

The world has surely turned on its head since then.  These days, connecting with strangers on social networking sites, in forums and chat rooms, and by instant message is encouraged.  There is probably no better way to consort with strangers (and perhaps your future friends) than by playing online poker.

With UltimateBuddy, it’s easy to keep taps on all your favorite strangers, friends, and foes whenever you hit the tables. Based on the same instant messaging technology used in popular chat clients including AIM, Yahoo! Chat, and Windows Live Messenger, this handy applet lets you quickly and easily see when your friends are online and where they are seated. All it takes is a few clicks and you can add friends to your list of favorites or take a seat right at their table.  You can even make notes on all your contacts to help you get up to speed at every encounter.

UltimateBuddy won’t let you down.  It’s highly secure and you can custom tailor it to meet your needs. You can easily fly under the radar and stop other people from tracking you.  Handy sound effects keep you in the loop, letting you worry about your hand and your bankroll.

You’ll also be pleased to know that UltimateBuddy is now built-in to our standard gaming software.  That means you no longer have to download and install a separate application to take advantage of all these useful features.
