In order to make their forums look busy and popular, many website owners have started hiring people to post on their forums on their behalf. By doing this, they are hoping to attract more long-term visitors. The other big problem for forum owners is that updating and participating in their own forums can be very time consuming and prohibits them from working on other projects.

This article is part of DBA, a new series on Mashable about running a business that features insights from leaders in entrepreneurship, venture capital and management. A lot of people want jobs in marketing, which is great news for those of us currently hiring. However, after a decade of screening, interviewing and onboarding marketers, there are still some mistakes that I constantly see. Here are examples of some mistakes you should avoid. 1. You use a Hotmail or AOL email address Marketers should see into the future, not live in the past, so unless you're applying for a job as a historian for 1999, I would suggest updating your email address, perhaps to a Gmail address. Bonus points if you use an email address associated with your own custom domain because it shows you know something about using the web and technology. 2. I can't find you on Google You don't have to be popular like Michael Jordan or Michael Jackson, but you should be present enough on the web that I can e...

At the time of writing this essay, Nigeria has lost 44 citizens to the dreaded Lassa fever which like the equally dreaded Ebola Virus Disease is a haemorrhagic fever that spreads easily from one person to another.

The Ebola virus which caused a worldwide stir in 2014 and claimed about 11, 000 lives in West Africa alone, can be considered to be more fearsome because of the number of casualties per occurrence and its rapid spread to even Europe and the US. However, with all its threats and spread; with all its fame for defying medicine, thethen Jonathan administration rose to the occasion with total commitment and vigour, mobilising agencies, personnel and other resources; sensitising schools, offices, churches/mosques etc while equipping hospitals and other public places with...

So the demand for petroleum products is not going anywhere in the nearest future because it will take decades before the concept of renewable energy will fully be accepted.
