Or, I’m in the 21st century, y’all!
My friend and coach Tim Brownson let me set up a Facebook fan page for his book How to be Rich and Happy. I’ve discovered I’m more than a bit geeked out about the possibilities of fan pages, so I’m exploring the idea of doing more. That’s a total hint for somebody who needs a page but doesn’t want them to do it themselves to contact me while I still work for pats on the head.
You can become a fan of How to be Rich and Happy on Facebook and get updated when there are new posts on the blog and other news. I think even if you don’t buy the book, the blog offers a lot of value.
By the way, Tim and John have decided to offer a larger free sample of HTBRAH, you can get it here, no need to register or join a mailing list, just click the download link.
Mah blog's on that there Kindle machine now!
I followed the brilliant advice of Kathy from Junk Drawer and made I Hate My Message Board
And I tell you this not because I expect you to subscribe but would really appreciate it if you have a few minutes and want to do me a huge favor if you’d do a quick review. Unless you hate this blog then I’m going to review your head and diagnose it crazy for reading this far.
If you’d like to publish your own blog on Kindle, here’s the link. The cut is something like 30%, which is a little weird since you’re doing most of the work, but since normally I do it for much, much less than a penny a page view, I don’t feel too bad about taking it.
So I got Google Wave and after waiting ages after I nominated them, my friends got their invitations and we’ve been playing with it. So far, our conversation has been like this:
Okay, I’m lost here.
Hey, what am I supposed to do
OMG, I can see you typing, that’s so cool!
Stop looking at me, I really can spell good wellgood properly it’s just cold in here
Ha ha you grammar isn’t ACK STOP LOOKING AT ME!!!!!!
What are all those empty boxes by my name I didn’t put them there?
Hey, everyone needs to get a picture because I don’t know who’s in here and I might say the wrong thing
How do you get a picture? I don’t see where you get a picture. HELP!
I’m so confused, my ADD is flaring up.
Let’s go back to Gmail
THANK YOU!
It’s been awesome and I’m so glad I went with my first instinct to invite my yackety yak buddies instead of people who had heard of it before and had good and useful applications in mind. You know what was funny? My friend Sean wanted to know what ping did, so he pinged me and the wave tab in my browser kept flashing Hi Tracy! and I couldn’t figure out where it was coming from and I was all CRAP what if by getting into a “wave” with somebody they can see into your computer and control it and open files and junk. I so do not need Sean to know my bizness. He’s a nice guy and all but he’d judge me for my browser history. You all would. (btw, go and vote for Sean. Then vote for me. No wait, vote for me first, because I’m needier)
All in all I can see a lot of possibilities with Wave but it’s going to take a lot of time before I feel comfortable with it, kind of like Twitter.
Finally don’t forget to enter the Scary Products Contest by October 29. I’m expecting great things from those of you that swore up and down you’d find something awesome!
