			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The profile found in Bluetooth will describe how<br />
the technology is used.  Profiles can be best<br />
described as vertical slices through the protocol<br />
stack.  It will define options in each protocol<br />
that are mandatory for the profile.</p>
<p>The profile will also define the parameter ranges<br />
for each protocol.  The concept of the profile is<br />
used to decrease the risk of interoperability<br />
problems between the different products.  These<br />
profiles won&#8217;t normally define any additions to<br />
the Bluetooth specification, which is why you can<br />
add new profiles where you need them.  The<br />
Bluetooth underlying technology is the same, only<br />
the specific method that it&#8217;s used is defined.</p>
<p>Generally speaking, all profiles of Bluetooth are<br />
based on the GAP (Generic Access Profile).  There<br />
are 9 profiles that fall in the GAP category, and<br />
they are below:<br />
1.  AVRCP &#8211; Audio/Video Remote Control<br />
Profile<br />
2.  ESDP &#8211; Extended Service Discovery Profile<br />
3.  CIP &#8211; Common ISDN Access Profile<br />
4.  PAN &#8211; Public Area Network Profile<br />
5.  HCRP &#8211; Hardcopy Cable Replacement<br />
Profile<br />
6.  GAVDP &#8211; Generic Audio/Visual Distribution<br />
Profile<br />
7.  A2DP &#8211; Advanced Audio Distribution Profile<br />
8.  VDP &#8211; Video Distribution Profile<br />
9.  HID &#8211; Human Interface Device Profile</p>
<p>To put it another way, usage models will describe<br />
Bluetooth device applications and the associated<br />
profiles that are used.  The usage model focuses<br />
mainly on three categories &#8211; voice/data access points,<br />
peripheral interconnects, and PAN (Personal Area<br />
Networking).</p>
<p>The voice and data access points involve connecting<br />
computing devices to communicating devices through<br />
a wireless link. This way, data can be transferred<br />
in a wireless manor, without the need of cables or<br />
other types of connectivity.</p>
<p>PAN  is another very important usage model with<br />
strong appeal to business customers.  Bluetooth<br />
networks are easy to set up in virtually any type<br />
of environment.  An example would be meeting<br />
others at a trade show.</p>
<p>Instead of having contact information beamed via<br />
infrared, business cards can quickly and easily be<br />
transferred via Bluetooth wireless.  The fact is<br />
that many documents can be exchanged this very<br />
same way &#8211; making the uses and possibilities<br />
virtually endless.</p>
<p>The Bluetooth profile is very important to the<br />
specification, as it enables you to do so much<br />
more.  You can use peripherals and devices with<br />
the profiles, and virtually anything else that you<br />
decide.</p>
<p>As Bluetooth expands and gets bigger and better,<br />
you can count on the profiles to expand and get<br />
even more functions.  If you have experience with<br />
Bluetooth profiles, you should know exactly what<br />
they are and what you can do with them.  If not,<br />
all you need is a Bluetooth device &#8211; and a vivid<br />
imagination.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Job search engines use state-of-the-art technology to assist people in their job quest.  Here you could enter all the relevant information to reduce the lists of sought after jobs to get more accurate results.</p>
<p>Because new jobs are being added daily or even hours after, the tendency to see the results you had yesterday may be different from what you see today.  This is where job search engines come in handy.</p>
<p>After some trial and error there are a few job search engines that could yield better results.  They allow searchers to see major job sites, companies and even its associations by entering a keyword and location.  Results can be seen in different ways, it could be in a browser list and some sent thru e-mail.</p>
<p>SimplyHired.com, America&#8217;s Job Bank, Jobster, and Indeed.com are just a few of the search engines that can give you more accurate results.  These sites include over 500 job listings with job boards, prime newspapers, and numerous companies with career pages.</p>
<p>Indeed.com even has an advance search option that could be used to search company names, positions, and even the distance for commuters.</p>
<p>America&#8217;s Job Bank let&#8217;s you enter the job category you would like to search, then you can enter either the city or the zip code and state you would like to find the job and it gives the list of job openings.  If you&#8217;re lucky, you can even get the quoted salary from each of the companies you&#8217;re eyeing on.</p>
<p>In SimplyHired.com aside from the list of jobs open, applicants are also given a short description of the job you&#8217;re about to handle including the responsibilities to be met even during application.  It also includes the type of company, location and date when the job was posted.</p>
<p>Jobster provides the latest job postings from today up to the last 7 days wherein you can also choose the distance you prefer.  This site gives you the ability to see the list of the freshly posted jobs from a variety of sources.</p>
<p>How Well Are They?</p>
<p>These sites give listings that are relevant and timely, compared to other search engines that generate results a little longer than the others.  Some would even provide results that are far from the location picked out.</p>
<p>So far the best among the search engines used is the Simplyhired.Com.  It showed the job title, a link was also provided for posting, a summary of the job description, where the exact current location and where it originated.  The produced results are easy to read, non-confusing with bits and pieces more of information plus the getting around is user friendly</p>
