I spent my one-hour “learn my technology” time today watching 17 short videos on using layers in Photoshop.  I needed learn more about this technique, and the videos, well done and very complete, were just the ticket. 

They are on Expert Village, a site I just discovered and immediately bookmarked as one of my Top 10 sites.  It has instructional videos on a number of programs and techniques we use in real estate: Outlook, Photoshop, creating videos for YouTube, PowerPoint, Excel, setting up a video blog, Adobe Premier Pro, digital photography….and many more. 

These and more videos useful to real estate agents can be found under the “Other” category on Expert Village’s main page.  In addition, you will find videos on any subject you can imagine: how to untangle Christmas lights, automotive repairs, fixing a toilet tank (did I need that one!), beauty and fashion, food and drink, health and fitness, parenting, pets, sports and more.  An awesome free collection of "how to" videos.

The latest entry on my blog, CyberStar® News & Views, focused on another set of 15 videos dealing with cleaning our tech equipment: digital camera lens, DVD player, the inside of your computer, a keyboard, lcd monitor...and more. 

BTW: If you have not yet seen my blog, I urge you to visit it.  It is a collection of tips and techniques from me and my CyberStars® designed to help you use today’s technology to increase your market share.  Once there, you can subscribe either by email or RSS feed. 

I hope you will check out Expert Village, one of the most useful sites I have seen.  Warning: if you visit this site, be prepared to lay aside anything you’re working on, as you’ll want to spend a lot of time there! 

It's a great day here on the lake in Reston...hope it's a great day wherever you are, too!
