Why I Like the Chrome Browser [Series - Part 3] - 08/30/10 12:06 PM

Of the total time that you on your computer in a day, a good portion of that is spent online... perhaps a major portion, right? Selecting a browser then is an important choice. If you are a windows user, you start off with Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) until you discover (or get shown) that this is not your only choice. This is Part 3 of an ongoing blog series for me to highlight points about MY browser of choice - Google Chrome. If you missed the earlier parts of this series, see the bottom of this post as I will … (3 comments)

Why I Like the Chrome Browser [Series - Part 1] - 08/28/10 12:11 PM

Which browser are you using right this very minute?
Ask yourself: Of the time that I spend on my computer, how much of that time is on the internet? When you answer, you'll realize that choosing a browser should be an important decision!
If you have a Windows computer, you by default start off with Microsoft Internet Explorer. This is an "ok" choice, but you can choose so much better. This article series will tell you why I have switched and why my personal choice in the browser war is Google Chrome.
For starters, Chrome is downright fast. Starts up … (15 comments)

Facebook Search - Right Under Your Nose - 08/21/10 08:04 AM

In a recent blog post, I had written about creating lists in Facebook so that you can keep up with your friends' latest news. Sometimes your news feed throws so much at you in a news feed TIDAL WAVE that you might be missing quite a bit that certain friends are posting  (see that article here)

Facebook - Don't Miss Your Most Important People - 08/15/10 09:44 AM
Once you've been on Facebook for a while, your friends list will have grown large. Also, you will have "liked" (subscribed) to many other business and group pages. Your clients (active and previous) are probably in your friends list (they should be) and certainly your family is there. Do you sometimes feel like you are missing posts for these most important people? I did until I discovered that you can make lists. Sometimes the large volume of posts from all your subscribed pages drown out the people. In the figure below, the "pages" are posting so much, there is no actual … (58 comments)
