Facebook for Noobies

A few weeks ago I taught a Facebook class at a local library. All of my techie friends laughed at me asking, "Who needs a class to learn how to use Facebook?"My answer was simple... a LOT of people!The problem is that there is only one of me and only so many classes I can teach.Which is exactly why I created the Facebook for Noobies eBook. Simply put, this 73-page eBook covers everything I teach in my face-to-face Facebook class.Ok, I admit it. I couldn't help myself. There's actually a few new…See More

Restaurant.com gift certificate pays off

I've posted links on Twitter andFacebook for Restaurant.com's famous $25 gift certificates that only cost $2 (when using a special promo code, see end of this blog post). Whenever I do this, I get two types of responses.The first is people thanking me for pointing out such a good deal. The second is people saying they are a rip off, have too many restrictions or that there aren't any good restaurants in their area.So I decided to put my money (all $2 of it) where my mouth is.I purchased a $25…See More

Open casting call for little noobies

A few weeks ago, I posted a new segment on my blog called Little Noobies. The blog post featured my son talking about a game he purchased on eBay.



I want to do more of these segments but I don't want all of them to be my kids. So I am making an open casting call for little noobies!



If you have a child that loves technology, go grab your Flip video camera or camcorder. Ask your child to explain his or her favorite technology or just one that he knows a little (or a lot)… Continue

There’s more than one kind of noobie

I've discovered a lot about noobies over the past 4 years. Namely, that there's more than one kind of noobie.



Some noobies have never touched a computer or digital camera.



Some noobies think they are techies but they aren't.



And some noobies are fairly technical but just need a nudge in the right direction.



When I started Noobie, I had all of these people in mind.



Noo noobies



But in the past year, an entirely new group of noobies… Continue

The scariest thing you’ll ever read

Do you want to read something really scary?



A recent article appeared on the cover of USA Today titled It's an app world. The article opened with this:



Meet Barbara. She's an app-aholic. One look at her smartphone explains her condition.



She has an app to wake her, a few to provide the day's news, one to check her bank account, another to make a grocery list, two to track her diet and one to get the weather. She has an app for baseball scores and an app for…

Thanks for the friend connection!

Wanted to know if there websites to trade in video cameras.

Can you tell me the pros/cons on the Flip? Seems like it is the hottest vid cam on the market right now? Looking for camera for exercise videos where I'm stationary and also moving like jumping jacks/cardio exerises. Is the Flip good with Tripods? Is it true you can transfer vid directly to youtube? Anything else you can tell me?

Thanks! Tod

HI Patric,

I saw that you were on the Business Roundtable Network (BRN) discussion in Smaller Indiana. We have our biggest event in our short history (Jan. 2009 until now) coming up next week. If ever there was a time to get involved with BRN now would be the time. We provide the support and exchange of expertise needed in this economy. We need a core of people (50) who are truly committed to helping each other get through this economy and thrive.

It would be great to have you as a part of that.

Hope to see you next Thursday. See details below.

Thursday, April 30th

4:30 pm to 6:30 pm

At Conquest Racing Headquarters

Get additional information and register in advance by going to our website: www.brncommunity.com

We need you to register because food is being provided by oyster bar and grill – excellent!

We need numbers so we get the right amount of food!

So register now for this FREE event.

I hope to see you there.

Charles Shinaver, Ph.D.

Oh, Kyle started a string (?) that asked everybody to post seven things about you on your own message board or blog. I put mine in the wrong place and have not taken the time to move it.
