Windows Secrets recommendation and review
23rd October 2008
If you spend any amount of time online and you use a Microsoft Windows based PC you know, or at least I hope you know, that you need to be on your toes to protect the security of your computer and the data stored on it.
I want to share one of my core resources for keeping up with the latest news and information about keeping your Windows PC safe and running its best. That resource is Windows Secrets. (more…)
Photo Calendars the right way
04th December 2007
I love giving creative Christmas gifts. It’s just so much more fun than buying something off the shelf.
I’ve lost count, but I believe 2007 marks the ninth year that I’ve created photo calendars for my family. Every year I scare them by telling them that I just didn’t make enough photos this year to come up with a good calendar. They never take me seriously and I have always managed to put thirteen photos (one for each month and one for the cover) from the year gone by into a calendar that they can enjoy until the next year.

Mind Mapping with MindJet
08th December 2006
The best way to “think it” is to “ink it”! Since becoming a student of learning and personal improvement I have discovered that it is vital to capture ideas on paper or electronically for later evaluation and use.
As part of a Dave Lakhani coaching group I learned about Mind Mapping software by a company called MindJet. Dave is a “rabid fan” and although I’ve only recently tried the software I can say that it is awesome!
I just learned about a webinar that Dave is doing for MindJet. Here are the details:
The webinar is called “Use The Power of an Hour & MindManager to Map 2007 Goals” and will show people how they can become more focused, and efficient in achieving business and personal goals by investing just one productive hour per day.
Dave plans to talk about his powerful formula for maximizing every hour, show people how to create what he calls “Fearsome Focus®” to maximize “personal effectiveness, help others identify and control once and for all the distractions that keep them from reaching their goals and create a “Master Life Vision Map.”
Here are the details, if you’re interested in attending:
Wednesday, December 13th
1:00- 2:00pm Pacific Standard Time

All the software you need for free! (Part 2)
22nd November 2006
Yesterday you read part one of this series about how I trashed the filesystem on my spare Dell PC trying to do a dual-boot install with Ubuntu Linux and restored the XP install successfully. So far so good. Now for the REST of the story. . .
When I did the XP re-install I set aside part of the disk (about 10gb) to install Linux. The GParted utility still didn’t see this formatted partition as a partition. It saw it as unused space. As soon as I created a partition on that space the NTFS partition was “blown away” again. (more…)
All the software you need for free!
21st November 2006
Well. . .sort of. It started when I adopted Firefox as my web browser of choice. The appeal of open source software.
Then I started this blog using WordPress which is another great software that is free and works well. Why not wade a little deeper? Now that I’ve got a DSL connection I can download more faster and get up to speed with the rest of the “power user” world so to speak.

Broadband and Online Videos
14th November 2006
Even though I’ve been web marketing in one way or the other for over three years my family just recently got a broadband connection. I know, I know, but when you live this far back “in the woods” services are a long time coming.
It’s great because now we can watch videos online! You may have missed my first online video. If so you didn’t miss much, but you WILL miss a lot if you don’t consider using video on your website. Don’t wait. I did and I’m playing catch up now.
I’m lucky because I use SiteSell. They make it easy for the beginner as well as providing powerful tools for experienced webmasters. Now they have a great video demo of their service.
Check it out NOW!

The Cure for Writer’s Block
07th November 2006
If you need help writing a:
- resume
- letter (recommendation, resignation, thank you, sympathy, etc.)
- business proposal
- business plan
- essay
- news release
- research paper
Then I suggest you check out Writing Help Central. I just found this site this week. I spent a couple hours exploring and still didn’t get to the end of the content.
Shaun Fawcett is the webmaster. He’s a former government employee from Canada. If he’s a “former” employee then what’s he doing now? He makes his living writing about writing and creating excellent articles that help his website readers to write better.
Since I’m interested in web marketing myself, I decided to check out Shaun’s case study. When you read this case study you will be inspired. What subject are you an expert in? Writing about it could be your next full time income source.
Let me know if you find Writing Help Central helpful to you!
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions in 3 easy steps!
26th October 2006
When you stop and think about it we should be in awe of all the opportunities we have in today’s world. The only problem is choosing wisely to live abundantly. The other day I ran across a neat little tool that will help you make the best decision in any situation. In a simple three-step process you can quickly make important business, financial, even life-changing decisions.
No kidding!
It brings amazing clarity, your own clarity, to any complex question or problem. People have used it to…
- make crucial business decisions
- select career paths for their adult children
- pick the best web host for their new site
- make the monumental decision about what to have for lunch (bacon sandwich or cheese sandwich or bacon and cheese sandwich).
The tool is called Choose It!
Start your online business for 33 cents on the dollar!
25th October 2006
Ok, I want to tell you a little bit about how I started building my web presence and business, but I’m more excited about the opportunity that YOU have to get start your own successful online business. Hint: YOU can start your own web business the same way I did, but but between now and midnight on Halloween you can SLASH your up front investment by 66%. . .Sound interesting? I thought so!
First though I want to a little about my story.
I have always been interested in computers and I spent my share of time playing PC games, etc. in the early 90’s. I was a little bit slow to see the commercial potential of the internet, but about four years ago I started looking around for ways to make money online.
My problem (I thought) was that I didn’t know HTML or anything about networks or web server software, etc. As it turns out that was really not a problem at all. . .I’ll tell you why later. (more…)
