Tweetology Review

Today I created an account on tweetology and it was a simple application and fun to use.  I have a few sites I like to keep up with and this allowed me to make a widget that posts updates of the latest live tweets.  So far I have added these different sites and you can view the application towards the bottom of the blog.

Will see how it works for the live feed aspect but for now I'm impressed with the ease of the service.

Activity on Blog

Due you ever get bogged down?  I'm getting more organized to be able to update my blogs on a weekly basis but sometimes it can be tough.  I see I haven't updated since June 4th on this blog and I've been active on my Social Media sites like twitter and facebook.  But bloggin has been slower.  I just found out you can connect your blog with your facebook fan page and your latest blogs will post on facebook.  The nice thing about this is that if you start with the Blog then you don't have to update facebook that often.  I also learned that the fan page can be connected to twitter so this takes three steps of Social media management to happen in one area.  What a way to simplify connecting and making it easier to share important information to others about what I'm doing and perhaps what is going on in the industry.  I love Social Media and I hope to help others with the Quick and Easy solution for their companies.

Google Feedburner Review and Setup

So Feedburner moved to Google and I had previously learned about the features but had never actually applied the subscribe to any of my websites.  I like it because it gives you the ability to have others get emails directly with your information from your blog and it has a super easy interface with blogspot.  Anything that makes it easy is for me.  Google has accomplished the epitome of simplicity.  My first thought if I don't know the answer I go to Google.  The key word "Google it!" has become common in my house and I'm sure across the world.

If you want to know the simple steps I took to add the subscribe to my blog than follow the list below...

1.  Go to www.feedburner.com
2.  Log in with your google account.
3.  Once logged in type your blog url into the burner and click next.
4.  Choose the correct feed source and click next.
5.  Either accept the name it supplies on this next screen or change your name for your feed.
6.  Than Congrats your Feedburner feed is now live.
7.  Move on to step 2 and check out the details about the feed, at this point I just hit next again.
8.  Lastly the feed is ready to be integrated and you can copy the html code to past onto your site.
9.  I like to publish a chicklet to display on my blogs.


I hope this has been helpful and it will eventually help me in the future if I ever forget how I created the Feedburner:)
Enjoy.

SwagBucks Review

So I just was on Facebook and my friend had a link saying she just earned swagbucks.  I was curious and thought I'd give it a try.  I would like to earn the free Amazon gift card.  I joined and was awarded 30 swagbucks right away.  Then on the front page of the site they had the Ipad drawing and you could get 1 entry for 30 swagbucks.  So since we have just bought the ipad and the whole family loves it I thought I'd enter for the chance to have one for the kids.  My friend also has a blog http://spencerlilyland.blogspot.com and does a lot of fun research on coupons and savings.  I currently am learning how to use swagbucks but she says so far she has earned several coupons at Amazon and other free cool things. 

In any case having fun surfing the internet, I might as well  earn a few swagbucks while doing it.  If you want to check it out you can visit my friends site or you can click here.
