Confessions of a Proud Facebook Addict

I have a confession to make. I am addicted to Facebook. There, I said it. It’s true. I join millions of other people around the world who don’t remember life before Facebook. I do however remember my first memory of Facebook. It was back in, I guess 2004 (?) and my college friend was talking about a new site he’d became a member of. But the catch was you had to have a .edu email to sign up. Having just graduated from college I no longer had one and was sad. But not too sad since I really had no idea what this “Facebook” thing was. I didn’t even have MySpace then. It took years before I finally joined that with the name “Finally Given In.” But like all other vices, once you take one step in it’s an easy slippery slope straight into addiction.

It’s funny to look back now at those first months on FB. There are posts from friends like these:

“wow…first myspace and now facebook. what happened to you? you are becoming one of us…one of the sheep.”

“you got facebook! thats exciting!”

“Well look here…you got Facebook.”

“Way to get on Facebook!”

That was all at the end of March 2007. I was living in Big Sky, Montana at the time and the post that follow are hilarious. Everyone wants to know why in the world I am living in Montana! I posted some photos during those first few months but my first actual post of words was the day after my birthday, on April 29, 2007:

“About to head to El Salvador from beautiful Guatemala to chill on the beach for a week and learn to surf!”

And so it began.

I can’t tell you how happy it makes me that this is my first FB post. It sums up my entire purpose for being a FB addict. As a traveler I am always on the go. As a flight attendant I am even more on the go. I live 2,670 miles (thanks Google maps) from my immediate family. I have friends that live all over the world and friends that show up all over the world. There have been many times over the last 8 years where I’ve went on FB and discover a coworker is also laying over in London, or Vegas, or Amsterdam. I love it. I have memories with those friends that I wouldn’t have gotten had they not posted their whereabouts on FB. Thanks to FB I can stay connected even when I am traveling from Guatemala to El Salvador.

I also love how you are able to keep up with people that you wouldn’t have before the social media revolution. Maybe someone that was a friend in high school or college, but not your best friend. Someone who before FB you’d have tried to keep in touch with but would just loose touch over the years, making way for new friends. Just a few weeks ago I was able to meet up with a friend like this who was in town. I went to school with this person but I hadn’t seen them in years. It was so much fun! And it never would have happened without FB.

There’s also the news aspect of FB. I read a lot of news articles that friends post. I learn about new ideas and new things from the articles that interest others. I see videos of things I might not have found on “regular” news sites. I learn about work from posts by coworkers. There have been at least 2 times where I was able to share a news article with two friends about airline tickets on sale so that their family members could buy tickets for a visit. That probably wouldn’t have happened with out FB.

FB is also a time capsule. There have been quite a few times where I have been able to look back at some event to discover the date something took place. Once, I was able to help a doctors office find my appointment by looking back at the date I posted about something on FB. That saved me months of waiting for a new appointment. I can go back at look at a photo to remember the name of that great little bar in Liverpool. I can reminisce the memories of everything I’ve posted about. This is the reason the Memories feature is so popular now. People love remembering and reminiscing!

But probably the most important reason that I am a Facebook addict is the overlying theme of everything I’ve just said, connection. I love that I can open up the FB app and see photos of my friends adorable little girl. I can see photos of my nephews playing sports. I can read a recipe my mom posted. I find out people are engaged, pregnant, or have passed away. I can ask for help finding football game tickets, volunteers for projects, or get help promoting my small business. I can ask people for help when I find creepy things like this growing in my plants:

Yuck.

I can look and see that a coworker from Minneapolis is going to be flying to Amsterdam the same time as me. I can keep in touch with all these people that I love from anywhere in the world. I can share my life with those who care to know about it. I can make new connections, with new people that turn into new friendships, new opportunities, and new adventures. This is why I am a Facebook addict. I love people. I love to travel. I love to stay connected. Facebook makes all that possible and I am so thankful for it. I guess that means I am proud to be a Facebook addict. (Yes, I did just change the title of the post to include the word proud.)

Now, if you’ll excuse me I have to go continue my reminiscing of my first few months on Facebook.

Coffee Shop Bloggers: Rain Out Sat = 8 Hours of Blogging and SEO

I realize that I may have a problem. On Saturday, my kids’ three soccer games were rained out so I spent 5 hours working on my blog and SEO. I went to the school play that night and saw

there and she said the only thing she wanted for Mother’s Day was a clean house and hours of her SEO expert husband’s time working on the CoffeeShopBloggers.com blog — it needs categories and other fun stuff and we don’t know how to do it in Blogger. Then, after the play, I figured it was almost Mother’s Day and I had taken the kids myself to the play and my youngest was a handful so I spent 3 more hours on my blog stuff.

So… you might wonder what a blogger would do when they work 8 hours on their blog? Thanks for asking!!

* I hadn’t posted in three days so I posted 3 posts. One was a freebie as I found a good post elsewhere that I could report and one was a Mother’s Day Post I had found and saved until Mother’s Day so I really only wrote 1 posts. That was maybe 30 minutes?
* Each post then gets tweeted, and the tweet goes on facebook. Twice because I have a facebook page and a Fan page for my blog. So… 3 tweets and 6 Facebook wall updates. My tweets automatically get posted on my LinkedIn Account. So…another 15 minutes?
* I have been having trouble getting my Feedburner RSS email newsletter feed to work. It seems to conflict with the code I put on each page from Google Analytics. GreenCollarGuy , DesignTrackMind’s husband (also at school play), said that I was not supposed to put in on every page or post; it was supposed to go into the template of my blog.

* So… I had to figure out how to put code in my template and worked on that, adding the code to the Page Template because I did not see a Post Template. I hoped that is the right one and that I placed the code in the correct spot.

* But to be sure, I started researching Feedburner and WordPress. I found another method using a plugin that is supposed to be the easiest way to go. And my research on the best plugin for Google Analytics generated a blog post of 30 best Plugins so I posted this on the CoffeeShopBloggers.com blog. So I used the new post to figure out which was the best plugin for Google Analytics on WordPress because there are several.
* But when I installed it, it caused a database conflict and my blog melt down. I realized that I now needed to strip out all the google analytic code out of my 150 posts and pages. And deactivate the Google Analytics Plugin. And strip the Google Analytics code from the template of my blog. So I did all of that. And got a tweaky neck in the process. This took hours!
* Yay! Once the Google Analytic code is removed, my feedburner email newsletter finally works!
* I also went to BlogFrog because it’s the best Mom Blog Consolidator out there. I find that I get 10% return “Followers.” BlogFrog is like a Mom Blog Consolidator combined with Twitter and Facebook. So I followed a gazillion moms. This is nice brainless work. This took an hour or so.
* I wanted to increase my Twitter to 3000 this week and was several hundred shy. I follow all my BlogFrog new friends and they tend to follow back. Follow back on Twitter any new Blog Frog Friends took about a hour.
* Also to increase Twitter, I cleaned out the people that I follow who don’t follow me back. I use a free website, TwitterKarma.com. It’s great but a little time consuming. I have to “Whack” three time which is about 15 minutes of waiting around. Then I have to manually find those who don’t follow back, select and block. That takes a while. Another half hour gone.
* With a cleaned out Twitter, I can now follow a few hundred before I hit my max. I decide to follow @BostonMamas because she has the right demographic for me and she doesn’t follow anyone back. I figure anyone who follows her might be inclined to follow me. Another half hour?
* Not done yet, I decide it’s time to up my Facebook to 1000 friends. I export my LinkedIn connections and filter them through Facebook to find who is on Facebook but isn’t Friended to me. Surprising quick after you do it once. 10 or 15 minutes?
* I also import my gmail email list to Facebook to find more friends.
* Finally, I go to my Fan Page in Facebook (PragmaticMom) and ask all 950 Friends from my personal Facebook to “Fan or Like” my blog page. I did it the slow way by accident so it took 15 minutes, but it should only take a few minutes if you know what you are doing! (I know now! Nothing like learning a lesson the hard way to really pound it into your brain!)
* I am also answering and DM-ing from Twitter about 400 emails generated from this Twitter-Get-Followers Frenzy. I am also retweeting when I see something good. And adding links to my blog when I find a great blog I want to visit again. Hard to tell but probably an hour in bits and pieces all day keeping my email account cleaned out.
* My 5 comments a day is way behind so I write some comments from my Google word Alerts but not all of alerts in my email box because I’m way behind.

It’s finally time to go to bed but there is still so much to do:

* Rotate my ads. Mother’s Day is over so some of my ads need to be deactivated and more new ones added.
* Rotate the posts on my slider.
* Make sure I stripped all the Google Analytic Code from my posts so I need to run a search for “Google Analytics” in my posts and continue to strip html code.
* Do I dare try the Google Analytic plugin again?…
* Ugh..I still haven’t done all my comments.

I need Mother’s Day to spend on my blog catching up! I wonder if my kids will let me spend the day on my blog…

Close Your Charge Card Account

We’ve all seen the late night and Saturday morning infomercials targeted at individuals with poor credit ratings who need to obtain a car. They’ll sell you a car, but you are going to pay through the nose. You may wind up having an interest as high as 20 to 28% per annum. If you have a credit rating of 720 or higher you can get funded for as low as 3.9%, during special promotional deals. Most people I know, except for my father-in-law, don’t have perfect credit. Regardless of what your credit rating, you may be paying too much for that new auto. I don’t have perfect credit and I just purchased a brand new 2007 Toyota Corolla CE for over $1,000.00 below invoice and I negotiated my interest rate and loan length down. Oh yes and here is the best part. I paid zero down and I’ve 45 days until my first payment is due.

I called Apple seeing security and using the iPad for shopping, banking, and trades that demand protecting your sensitive need. The Apple representative explained that the iPad along with your computer offer the same security as it pertains to site safety.

FYI: Invoice cost is the price the dealer paid for the vehicle. At least it is the suggested price the dealers say they paid for the auto. Why really would a car dealer sell you a car for $1,875.00 below invoice? The answer is they have no intention of selling you any auto for $1,875.00 below invoice. The loss leader advertising is intended to simply lure you onto the lot.

In the Payday Loans For Bad Credit  module the next section is common stock. Shares owed in thousands will show [2,000] which are 2 million shares. The cost per share carton shows [$33.99]. The simulation corrects cost per share each round. After business Andrews makes plant developments the earnings per share box changes from [$0.50] earnings per share. The carton reveals a loss, exhibited in crimson of [($0.70)] per share. Business Andrews will have to input suitable changes in the research and development module and the advertising module pricing and forecasting sections to increase business net income and earnings per share. The business must assess the proforma balance sheet, cash flow and income statements to change financing.

Are you eligible to claim the child tax credit? You can find out in a few simple steps with an on-line tax estimator to get an idea of how your tax return will look this season.

In case you would like all of the computations to be finished without blunders you should file your tax return with TurboTax. If you mess up on your own tax return you may end up waiting 6 to 8 weeks before it gets straightened out.

Do not max out your credit cards. Only since your creditors have establish credit limits on your cards does not mean it is ok to spend up to those most limitations. It’s better that you make your own limit according to what you earn. Ideally your limitation should be no more than you can manage monthly.

Crazy Monera Love him or loathe him, Jim Cramer has done a good job with Mad Money. The show first aired on March 14th 2005 and it has been a success ever since. Cramer does an excellent job of making the show very educational, while at the same time being amusing. Am I Diversified is a particularly helpful segment which aids people diversify their investment portfolio to help make sure better threat protection in the future. Cramer brings lots of energy to the show, however he also certainly knows what he is discussing. Be careful not to simply buy and sell every pick of his, but try to understand from this show in any way you can.

Let us say you found three cars that meet your needs. Enter in a quote for every automobile at each website. This may take a while, but it’s time well spent. The sites will generally store the quote for you and lock the quote in for some days. Take note of the Quote numbers for every quote. You will want it when you purchase your automobile. Now you’ve got three quotes for every automobile and you now understand what the price of insurance is likely to be for your new auto. This can save you money in more then one way. I will show you how to use this tool later in step eight.

The government is also encouraging foreign investment in this sector, as the entrance of foreign players will help the sector. FBI in Indian banking can lead to improved efficacy, better capitalization, and enhanced adaptability. Therefore the authorities is attracting FBI, FBI, and NRA in this area.

6 Must Visit Breweries in Asheville

For those of you who are out of the “brewery loop”, you might be wondering what kind of beer scene Asheville, North Carolina has these days. Well, it has a pretty large one. Asheville alone has 26 craft breweries and a total of 60 in the region. It attracts people from all over the country and even beyond. So here’s a little beer guide for your upcoming trip, or the trip you’ll want to plan after reading this!

* Sierra Nevada. First on the list for a reason is the Sierra Nevada Brewery. A little outside of the Asheville city limits is the most beautiful brewery I have stepped foot in. In addition to the beautiful scenery and fresh beer, they also have a free tour. So what right? Well they offer a free tasting at the end of their tour with roughly six of their newest and most popular beers! The tour’s conclusion takes you out into the tasting room and full restaurant. So take a seat, get a flight and order the beer cheese. You can thank me later.
* Wicked Weed. Next up is a lesser known brewery but one that has an amazing atmosphere. Located in downtown Asheville, Wicked Weed is a growing but awesome brewery. Their beers are starting to surface here in Athens which is very exciting! The main level is a full restaurant with amazing food including amazing beer cheese (you may see a theme here). There is also a full bar with all of their local craft beers. Besides the atmosphere upstairs, after hours they have a full bar downstairs! It is a totally different vibe, one that reminds me slightly of Athens. So when it’s late at night and all you want is a fresh Lieutenant Dank, you can head to the basement.
* Green Man. A slightly different vibe than anyone I have been to is Green Man. The beer is so good and it is a very chill atmosphere. The tasting room overlooks the brewery area, and you can see how they brew their beer. There is a large box full of rocks that you can stack while you aimlessly talk to whomever you’re with. They also have an outdoor porch area where you can grab a box of Connect Four and play with your group. Grab your choice of beer and sit out back while watching the sunset over the buildings.
* Catawba. This is a really cool area to start your night. They have a really wide range of beers including a seasonal PB&J beer (and yes, it actually tastes like it). The inside area is nice, but the back porch is the best part. When we went, there was a live three man band and a taco food truck outback! Watching the sun beginning to go down there was beautiful with the mountains in the backdrop.
* Asheville Brewing Company. Who would have thought one could master great beer and great pizza at the same place? Well ABC is proof of that. This is a go-to for us, even if it’s just take-out pizza and a 6-pack of their beer. It pairs perfectly together and will leave you wanting to return the next day! And if you’re not the biggest fan of pizza or just wanting a finger food snack, try their cheese fries or tachos (tater tot nachos).
* New Belgium. Overall, New Belgium’s atmosphere was the least attractive to me. This is because it is a very family-centric atmosphere. Being in my early twenties, it is not really my scene yet. But come a few years, I will feel completely different. There is a lot of grass area to set up blankets and bring food with your kiddos. New Belgium is the only brewery I found to be like this in Asheville.

 

So now that you have your beer guide for Asheville, what’s next? Click on over to Airbnb and book my favorite little spot here and pack your bags! You won’t regret a long weekend enjoying the new beer-centric Asheville. Be sure to report back with your thoughts and new favorites!

9 Email Marketing Tips to Take to Heart

Marketing through email is one of the most cost efficient ways to promote your business, engage new customers, and boost your revenues in the process. There is, however, a thin line that separates your email marketing message from those messages that are clicked as spam which end up in the infamous Trash folder. It’s what you must work hard to prevent from happening.

Below are some tips to take to heart in launching an email campaign.

1. Have a Goal
First and most important rule for your email campaign is to be clear on what you want to accomplish. Is it to drive more visitors to your website? Boost earnings? Build company image? Or foster relationships with your clients?

2. Create Your Database of Prospects
Your email campaign will never take off without recipients. Your initial readers can be people you met during trade launches, members of the press, or store visitors, among others. The list of recipients must continuously grow as you work your campaign.

3. Set Proper Expectations
Once your readers are identified, make sure you get your signup page up. This must have all the information on what they can expect from the email. Is it about tips on how to use the products, promotion of new services? How about company updates or a letter from the CEO? Apart from setting these expectations, you must also inform your customers on the actual benefits of subscribing to your email list.

Have a schedule in sending these emails. A monthly email will do. Frequent emailing may annoy your readers who may end up marking you as a spammer. Set these parameters clearly at the beginning of the campaign to help them think whether they will signup with you.

4. Short and Sweet
Your readers are probably busy as you are. Chances are, they will only browse through your email. In roughly 100 words per article, you must be able to deliver the message to your readers. If you are sending a long article, then it may be advisable to write a summary and simply create a link to the target page.

5. Compelling Content
This alone can make or break your email campaign. Your content must be informative, entertaining, and relevant for your readers. You must go the extra mile and learn what is interesting to your readers. As your email campaign progresses, offer various relevant content to keep your subscribers interested.

Apart from offering relevant content, you may also send out seasonal content such as holiday-related emails or birthday greetings to your readers. To foster a lasting relationship with them, write in a casual tone. As much as possible, try to make the email more personalized for your readers, like they are receiving messages from a friend.

6. Wise Use of Images
Pictures must be used sparingly as it takes up a lot of space and not to mention, may take some time to load. Email services sometimes block images from appearing. Important messages must not be conveyed using images. Instead of photos, use HTML for an enhanced look.

7. Proofread, Edit, Revise
This may seem like a no-brainer to you but this is perhaps one of the most overlooked aspects of the email campaign. Your compelling content and dynamic design won’t mean a thing if readers see typographical errors in your mail. It only takes one customer to notice this oversight, post it on social media sites, and affect the credibility of your business. Imagine all that trouble you could have avoided by simply proofreading your email.

8. Test before Sending
Before releasing your email, if you have the time, try it with various email clients including Gmail, Yahoo, MSN, Mac Mail, or Outlook. You may also want to consider having a version for mobile phones. More and more people are accessing their mails on a daily basis through portable devices. According to the Email in Motion study, almost 65% of Americans are likely to delete an email not readable with their mobile handsets. Note also that logos, Flash animation, and graphics are often blocked by filters. Test to check how your messages will appear.

9. Unsubscribe Link
Your message must also have a link for readers who want to unsubscribe. If they do, you can ask them to take a survey. You might not get that many responses, but surveys such as this will give you clues to what your target audience wants.

6 Best Free iPod Touch Apps And Games for Kids

The generation Z, born from 1995 to 2012, are the kids of today. This is the generation that is highly exposed to high level of technology. The Generation Z kids will definitely grow up in a highly evolved computer and media environment.

These kids will be more internet savvy than the very sophisticated (technology-wise) Gen Y. Who can blame the Gen Z if they have high-tech gadgets? After all, a large percentage of Gen Z kids are generally offspring of Gen Y parents.

A lot of kids today have iPod Touch as this gadget is one of the top Portable Music Players today. The evolved iPod Touch not only plays music but can play movies, videos, apps and games. Choosing which movie, song or video for kids is fairly easy. Just download the ones that the kid likes.

However, choosing which iPod Touch apps or games are best for kids is not quite as easy. Why? Well, there are more than 300,000 iPod Touch games (paid and free) to choose from. Choosing which ones are great for kids could prove to be taxing. No fret as there are great (and free) apps for kids available online.

#1 – Angry Birds

If you have not heard of this horde of crazy-revengeful “angry” birds, where have you been hibernating? This iPod Touch game is a top seller. This iPod Touch game is about some naughty pigs that stole the birds’ eggs. The Angry Birds quest is to invade and destroy the pigs’ castle at all cost. The birds use themselves as missiles as they use slingshots to launch themselves towards the pig’s castle.

You need to consider a lot of factors such as, which bird to fire, the acceleration speed and strength of the shot and so on. This is a great iPod Touch game application as the player would have to consider the law of physics to play this iPod game. Caution: it’s addictive! (ages 6 and up).

#2 – Draw Something

This iPod Touch game is the most popular guessing and social drawing game suitable for “kids” of all ages. The idea is to draw a particular object or idea and let your opponent guess the word. A kid’s creativity will definitely be tapped in this game. Caution: also addictive! (ages 7 and up).

#3 – Fruit Ninja

This game app is a worldwide hit. The idea is to slash every which way fruits that fly across the screen. The slashed fruits open up in very colorful ways. This game app has three game modes which include power-ups with options to post score on online leader boards using Openfeint. (ages 6 and up).

#4 – Doodle Buddy

Kids do love to doodle. What better way to develop their creativity and artistry than having them play this app? This is an “artsy” iPod Touch app for kids 3 years and above. This is an application where a child draws in all types of backgrounds, lines and shapes using different colors. It’s possible to take someone’s mug shot and then add details by drawing them on the photo.

#5 – Giraffe’s Matching Zoo

This is more of a matching game that will stimulate a young child’s neurons to build up memory muscles. Kids will have to match animals and simultaneously learn new kinds of animals in the course of the game. This is a perfect iPod Touch game app for kids ages 3 and up.

#6 – iBowl

Kids’ virtual bowling game at its best! It’s harder to throw a gutter ball in iBowl than a straight ball. Kids will love the sound of pins being knocked over by their virtual ball. The game is really quite easy to learn but mastering it takes hours and hours of practice. This game is suitable for kids ages 4 and up.

There are plenty of other commendable iPod Touch apps and games for kids such as Paper Toss where the player attempts to throw a piece of crumpled paper into a waste basket. The task is made difficult by a fan blowing in the background. Hangman is another exciting iPhone Touch apps that is based on the vintage Hangman game. These iPod Touch game apps are for kids ages 6 and up.

Though these game apps are good to a point, kids’ gaming hours should be regulated.

It is not easy to qualify which game apps are the best. Do you have any recommendations that you can share?

500 Residual In One Week With Auto Recruiting Platform

WHAT IS AUTO RECRUITING PLATFORM?

Auto Recruiting Platform has given me an extra 500 dollars per month in residual, passive income. It has also given my sponsor a 500 dollar residual, passive income. In one week. Yeah, keep reading. You are gonna love this new system!

Is it too good to be true? It sure LOOKS that good! The back office for this business opportunity is TOP NOTCH and makes you feel like you are driving a top of the line Mercedes Benz or BMW ultimate driving machine! I have never seen a better back office in my life online so far. And to me that is important.

I think the look of something you are selling is important. Yeah, some people say ugly sells and ugly works. And they might be right, for some things. But when you have a nice, high ticket item like Auto Recruiting Platform, you want it to look good. And I will tell you what … it does. The owners of the company do not want us to share screen shots of the back office or anything … because it is that good.

So I cannot do that for you.

But you can see what it looks like and what it does if you go through the actual funnel.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you pay attention and watch the entire thing. Because this program is the newest, greatest marketing funnel that is out right now. This is the new standard in marketing. So even if you don’t buy the Auto Recruiting Platform today. I recommend that you at least watch the presentation so you can see what a high level marketing funnel looks like.

 

Testimonial from one person.

You know how important those are!

Especially when you do not order them from fiverr.com and get fake testimonials from someone for 5 bucks. You know who you are! Yes I am talking to you! Do not be embarrassed. We all start at the bottom in marketing. Unless you get something like auto recruiting platform when you start out. Then you are sitting pretty nice.

If you are SO LUCKY to stumble upon this for one of your first higher ticket marketing platforms, you should be very happy about that! There are a LOT of crappy companies out there who do not care about their down line and just care about getting the max dollar out of each person that comes their way. Click here [http://web.archive.org/web/20130728111647/http://badguymarketing.com/more-value-here-than-masters-course-for-free/] to read more about that. Otherwise keep reading and learn more about Auto Recruiting Platform.

Anyhow, I am not much of a salesman and I think this funnel is good enough to get your attention.

I really do honestly think that.

I have seen a LOT of marketing funnels and this one was the best hands down.

> The way they use cell phone verification for opt in ensures a LOT HIGHER SUCCESS RATE for your paid traffic.
>
> The way they have you apply for membership with an actual application that you have to fill out!
>
> That means ONLY SERIOUS PEOPLE NEED APPLY!

This funnel WEEDS OUT the marketers who are not ready for higher ticket and higher sales and higher profits. Because what is one of the most annoying things in marketing today? Having to sell. What is one of the most BUSINESS KILLERS out there? Why do most people fail? Because TIME.

They spend too much time WASTED on people who really do not want to be internet marketers and just tip toe around.

This funnel SLAPS the tip toeing people off the edge and they either fall in or out.

The good thing is … it SAVES YOU SO MUCH WASTED TIME from all the people who are scared of marketing. Because the funnel will scare most people away. And THAT IS A GOOD THING!

What is more valuable than your time?

Really there is nothing.

We get in to this business so we have TIME to spend with our families.

But 90% of marketers WASTE TIME with talking to people who REALLY ARE NOT INTERESTED in earning income online.

If you had a way to laser target ONLY people who are DEAD SERIOUS about marketing.

This is the way.

 

I know you are interested.

I know you are not one of the people I am trying to weed out.

Because you are a serious marketer and you care about making money online.

50 Things You Can Do In Your Adirondack Chair

Ahhh…the incredibly-comfortable, amazingly-practical Adirondack chair. It’s been around since, well…since forever it seems — just over 111 years! That’s a lot of years of comfort and enjoyment for one little chair that can be seen on thousands of outdoor patios, decks and lawns around the world.

A Guide on How to Fix Computer Errors and Make your PC Faster

Lately your computer has been acting strange and you really don’t know what to do about it. Each day, you get up early before work and check your e-mail but something always slows you down. For example, last time there was the blue screen error and now the computer is so slow that it takes you twenty minutes to check your e-mail! In any case, this isn’t right! You need to take the appropriate action in order to fix computer errors and move on. After all, you have a life and just want to get on with business. If you are someone who isn’t great with computers or do not know the first thing about fixing them, there are many online guides to help you.
 
For those who have many types of programs on their desktop, you may want to hold off on installing anymore. A cleanup process should be conducted. You can do this deleting certain programs and files by hand. Once they have been deleted, go ahead and empty out the recycle bin. Although you have not deleted all unused files, this will still give your PC the boost it needs. Aside from this, you can use a registry cleaner to help you in the process. Your registry is filled with tons of files and folders which are cluttering up the place. It has been about four months since you purchased your computer and since this is your first run, the registry cleaner can remove even up to 60% of clutter! In case you don’t know what cleaner to use, the best one right now is Reg Cure. With Reg Cure, you can delete hidden Internet history, unwanted files and folders, etc. It can do everything for you, automatically! The only thing you need to do is click the buttons and this software will scan your PC. Aside from this, there are tons of other ways to get rid of errors. You might not know them all but luckily, we have put together a guide for you on how to fix computer errors.
 
1. Use tools such as a defragment application. Most defrag software are free and you can even locate one which is already installed in your PC. Look under “Start” and you will be able to pick from a few tools to help clean the computer.
 
2. Another great tool is TreeSize. If you don’t know what needs to be deleted, this tool will list all of the applications or files that take up the most space. These are the ones that you really need to delete if you do not use them.
 
3. Go ahead and find a program named Startup Delayer. This can really speed up the time it takes for your computer to boot up. What it does is delay programs if they are automatically scheduled to run after startup.
 
4. As we mentioned before, use a registry cleaner. It will take any files which have become corrupted and fix them. These are fast and efficient, so pick a program you want to use. Be sure to pick up a paid registry cleaner instead of the free ones. When you download free ones, most have viruses or some sort of spyware attached. Always keep yourself well protected.
 
5. Check to see if you have the most recent hardware available on your PC. Any outdated hardware is likely to cause errors since the communication between your system and the hardware isn’t responding correctly. Most hardware is available to download online if you need a new version.
 
6. Go to Performance options in your PC and be sure to turn off any visual effects. This could be wallpaper or screensavers that you use. This will definitely speed up your laptop or PC.
