Figure 1: An Example Mind Map

To make notes on a subject using a Mind Map, draw it in the following way:
Write the title of the subject you're exploring in the center of the page, and draw a circle around it. This is shown by the circle marked 1 in Figure 1, above.
As you come across major subdivisions or subheadings of the topic (or important facts that relate to the subject) draw lines out from this circle. Label these lines with these subdivisions or subheadings. These are shown by the lines marked 2 in Figure 1.
As you "burrow" into the subject and uncover another level of information (further subheadings, or individual facts) belonging to the subheadings above, draw these as lines linked to the subheading lines. These are shown by the lines marked 3 in Figure 1.

Finally, for individual facts or ideas, draw lines out from the appropriate heading line and label them. These are shown by the lines marked 4 in Figure 1.


Key points:


Mind Mapping is an extremely effective method of taking notes. Mind Maps show not only facts, but also the overall structure of a subject and the relative importance of individual parts of it. They help you to associate ideas and make connections that you might not otherwise make.

 
If you do any form of research or note taking, try experimenting with Mind Maps. You will find them incredibly useful!

What is originality?

One of the two requirements for something to be entitled to copyright protection is that it must be original (the other requirement is that the original work must be fixed in a tangible medium). This essentially means that there must be some amount of creativity used in creating the work - the author must have done some independent creation. Obviously, if you simply copy a work, your copied work is not entitled to protection because it is not original. Similarly, if your work consists of nothing more than information from the public domain, you cannot protect it with copyright.


However, this is a relatively easy standard to meet and the level of creativity required for copyright protection is not very high. For example, if you film a real world event, your movie can be protected by copyright even though there may not be much creativity on your part. Similarly, a tourist photograph of a landmark would be original, because the tourist picked the angle, the framing, etc., even though many similar photographs of the same landmark have been taken. The creation of a telephone listing, however, does not meet this originality requirement because there is not even a minimal level of creativity.

The originality requirement does not mean that you have to create something that has never been created before (so there is no novelty requirement, as there is in patent law). From a practical sense, this means that there can be independent creation, where two people create the same thing at the same time, and both authors will be entitled to protection for their work (whereas patent law only awards patent protection to one inventor).

While the originality requirement means there must be some minimal amount of creativity, it does not mean that the work needs to have any artistic merit. So a judgment of the work’s quality does not come into play - the focus is simply on the work’s creation and the level of creativity used.

Finally, scenes a faire is not original and cannot be protected

Reasons Why Research Is Important

Choosing a niche can literally make or break your internet business, so it is very important to make sure you research all your prospective niches before you choose one to enter. There are many reasons why you must do your research; we will look at five of the most important reason in the article that follows.


1. You don't want to enter a niche with little interest.
When you choose a niche you want to make sure there are a lot of people interested in the niche. There are several ways you can go about researching this, but you stand to lose a lot if you do not do it properly. If there is no interest in the niche you choose you certainly are not going to find buyers, and you will not get traffic either. Without either of these it is just about impossible to make money in a niche.

2. You don't want to enter a niche where there are no buyers.
A lot of niches have what are considered freebie seekers. These are the people that come to your site only looking for what they can get for free. There will be some buyers, but by really researching and understanding what people in the niche are looking for you can avoid choosing a niche with a large majority of freebie seekers. This way you can focus your attention to something that can bring in a lot of sales and revenues from people who are not afraid to spend money.

3. You don't want to invest your time building a site in a niche with no search traffic.
Two of the best ways to get traffic to your site are Search Engine Optimization and Pay Per Click. SEO is where you get listed in the results pages for searches, these are called organic results. Pay Per Click is where you pay for the sponsored ads on the results pages. If a lot of people aren't searching for your keywords you won't do any good to be listed in either spot, because there won't be traffic to the results pages. Basically you want to make sure there is a lot of search traffic coming to your keywords before you choose that niche, because SEO and PPC traffic are both driven through search engine searches.

4. You want to choose the best products to affiliate yourself with.
If there are not great products to affiliate yourself in your niche you will either be choosing products your customers will not like or you won't have any affiliated products. This will drastically bring down the revenue your site could be making, so make sure you find some great products before you choose a niche for sure, and even try some out before you promote them. Customers also will not trust you for future purchases if you affiliate yourself with sub par products.

5. You want to build a content site people will come back to.
That means you need to know a lot about the niche. This is also called an authority site. You want people to be able to come to your site and ask you questions that showcase your knowledge on the niche, if you can't answer the questions you will quickly lose your following of loyal visitors. You just need to make sure you know enough about the niche before you launch a site in it.

Conclusion

As you can see it is very important to research niches before choosing one at random to start your online business. Doing so can mean the difference between struggling along trying to earn a few dollars, or making as much money as you can handle.

Research is necessary, but it can take a lot of time to do it right. One resource that will save you that time is ProHotList. There you will find free downloads, suggestions, money making tips, and hundreds of well-researched niche ideas.

You can free up that research time and do what you really like. To learn more and start saving time and making more visit http://www.prohotlist.com/      form; Michael_Oksa
