Happy Independence Day in the USA!!
This week I have a couple of articles about my neighborhood, the Grateful Dead and marketing, bike/car crashes and more.
Have a great day and enjoy.
How to Decide What to Read: Books Read the First Half of 2010
One of my most popular posts is a list of sites that will help you decide what book to read next. It surprises me a little that people use google to help them decide what they should read as I have stacks of unread books all over my house. Well, not in the kitchen although there are a couple of cookbooks on the table.
And since I love the library, I am constantly checking out books and rarely get to the unread ones that I own.
I’ve come across a number of sites where someone is attempting to read a book a week and ehow even has a How to Read a Book in a Week article.
The Complete Facebook Guide for Small Non-Profits by Inbound Zombie
A couple of months ago I wrote an article about how to get people to like your fan page by offering content that is only available to fans. This uses the fbml visible-to-connection tag.
Inbound Zombie is using this code to offer an free ebook that is only available to those that like their Facebook page.
And the ebook is excellent!
How to Create Your Own Facebook Share URL
Last Winter I wrote an article on how to add a share button to your Facebook fan page.
I have since learned that you can make any image or link a share button and this same code can be used on a Facebook fan page and your website.
And once again, when you know the code, it is super easy to implement.
(Anti) Social Lists 6/27/10
I can’t believe I have any links that are unrelated to the World Cup. I’ve been obsessed and have watched almost every match. And somehow I’ve managed to get a lot of work done and entertain the kid, since she is between school and camp.
It’s been unusually hot for Philly this time of year and it’s been hard to keep up with not using AC. I did finally turn it on in one room for a couple of days – that room is trashed as we’ve been eating, sleeping, working and living in that one room. I have found that I don’t check the temperature I don’t feel as hot. So, part of being uncomfortable from the heat must be psychological ;-)
And we had a wild 15 minute storm in my neighborhood and that in a very short time caused a lot of destruction. I’ve never been in destructive weather before and it might have been the scariest 15 weather minutes I’ve ever experienced. I’ve included some photos.
I also have freelance, solar flares, WordPress, tiny houses and more.
