Do you need extra cash? Do you regularly find yourself wasting time and being unproductive on the internet? If your answer is yes and you are desperate for money, you have just made yourself the perfect target for home based business scams.

This world is full of both good and bad people. Unfortunately, the bad ones are always causing trouble for the good ones and those who give their trust to someone easily can be manipulated into losing a lot of money.

From time to time, you might receive emails about moneymaking opportunities online. A lot of these go straight into your email client’s spam folder but sometimes they manage to slip through those internet barriers and end up in your inbox.

These kinds of notifications will usually be packed with details about how easily you can make money on the internet by engaging in a certain home based business. For a simple one-time payment of X amount of dollars, you would be able to jumpstart your online business and be on your way to earning a lot of money in a short span of time.

Such promises are made so tempting even the most steadfast people can be persuaded into shelling out their money and trying these online home based businesses themselves.

While there are certainly a number of real profitable online businesses, there are those which are run by people who aim to steal your money and never contact you ever again.

In order to avoid getting into such tragic situations, be smart and look up a company or person’s background information on the internet. Do a quick search on one of the many available search engines online and type in related keywords like the company’s name or any other important details that they may have provided you with.

Check to see if they are legit and if there are others who have engaged in their proposals. There is a good chance that some of those who write testimonials about how good a certain business idea is are part of the scam. Anybody can be anybody on the web and there is no guarantee that what they have published is real or fictitious.

Nevertheless, being vigilant will be of great help not only when it comes to dealing with online frauds but also in real life situations.

Remember that home based business scams are fashioned in such a way that you will be lured into participating and openly giving them your money. Once you have caved in to the temptation without doing some research, you would already have lost the battle.

The mobile revolution that has ushered in this decade is nothing short of a history being created. The fact that it has touched every facet of life makes it universally acceptable. Education is not left behind and several companies are trying to use mobile platform to provide a variety of education services. However, if anything to go by, the success is far-flung and no path breaking way has been found that would make mobile a true education device. This article tries to focus on the limitations that are hindering the success of mobile education.

Screen Size
The largest mobile phone in terms of screen size is Dell Streak that has 5 inch display. However, still an average mobile phone screen is no more than 2.8 inches. Students are used to reading from pages that are larger in size. Hence, reading on 2.8 inches screen is never comfortable. The screen of mobile phone is mainly optimized for small text.

Processing power limitations
Barring a few mobile phones, most of the cellular phones have slow processors. These processors are incapable of running animations or digital content effectively. Desktop computers and laptops do not face any such difficulty and therefore have become a preferred medium for online learning.

Fragmented nature of Mobile OS platforms
Application developers find it extremely difficult to develop applications that can be run on all mobile operating systems. Imagine a class with 30 students and some having Nokia phones, others with Blackberries, and some using Androids. This is a real world issue that most of the education providers are grappling with.

Expensive
Education is always considered as a service which is there for the masses. Hence, in many cases, education is affordable for a large number of students across the different economic strata. There is no doubt that devices such as iPhone can be used for mobile education. Unfortunately, not many can afford to buy an iPhone.

Lack of government support
Present day governments have not yet understood that education in 21st century is no longer restricted inside the buildings of schools, colleges, and universities. New modes of imparting education have come up and mobile is one of them. Unless the governments around the world realize this and allocate resources, the mobile education will not succeed.

Even though companies are talking about phones as low as $30, these devices will never be optimized for education. The solutions to the barriers, mentioned above, are hard to find. Even the much touted projects such as OLPC (One laptop per child) have not been able to bring a paradigm shift in the filed of education.  

The time has come to change our approach and focus on the innovative products that are coming into the market. Yes! TABLETS! iPad, Galaxy Tab and many other touch screen tablets that can change the game altogether. The level of interactivity on touch devices is extremely high. Moreover, institutions can develop highly engaging and effective educational content. The fact that they can also run web content makes them all the more appealing.
