My fourth day as a SendOutCards distributor.

I sent out two more cards today.

We’ve been excited about the new van and today would be the first time our older kids got to see it. I wish I was running the video cam when they saw it … the expressions on their face was priceless.

We loved it too because now with the DVD/TV combo we can drive with in quiet (for now anyway)

Watched a few more videos about SendOutCards and Sarah and I went through the distributor kit. We need to get the handwriting font completed so we can have that in the system.

My third day as a SoundOutCards Distributor.

Whooo Hoooo … I got my distributor kit today, and was so excited about it I drove home after work to pick it up.  Not something I normally do when I have school. It takes me 20 minutes from home to get to school, so I was cutting it close. I made it with 3 minutes to spare

I added a few more addresses to my contact sheet and have written down others I need to find the addresses to.

Can’t wait to get my main site done (will be working on that this weekend)

My first day as a new SendOutCards distributor.

Today marks day one, my very first day of many to come in this new venture. I need to start by saying this wasn’t a decision I made lightly either. A lot of research and preparation has gone into this. I -  like so many others who are tired of failing with network marketing – decided this time I would take the time to learn more about the company and what I feel has been the most important decision is being able to choose my upline.

I’m not going to blame all my past failures on my upline, but I can tell you this much, not having the right person behind you makes it a lot tougher. If you’re wondering about why I chose SOC, or what I did to research, you’ll have to wait for the new site, sorry. I wanted to get this journal started so I don’t put it off (more…)

I recently launched a new website aimed at the Twitter crowd. Ever since I closed down TPRweb I have been trying to find something that interests me, something that can keep me writing and engaged online.

I still had a desire to make something of the knowledge I have with eBay which is why I decided to launch MyAuctionLife.com. As much as I tried to get excited about the site, it was easy to put it off, much like I did with TPRweb in the last months of it’s life.

After noticing how much I was getting involved with Twitter, and how main stream it has become, I decided to see if there was something I could contribute to the Twittersphere.

That’s when the thought of a site geared towards the people who use Twitter, not just a tips site (as if we need another) but rather a site that showcases Twitter users. Thus the site http://eTweeple.com was created.

In celebration of the eTweeple launch, I have decided to create professional Twitter backgrounds free of charge in exchange for people helping me spread the word about eTweeple. I’m not talking about some easy templated background you see offered for free all over the net, I’m talking about professional grade one of a kind backgrounds. You can see examples of the ones I have created so far at eTweeple.

If you know of any Twitter users that the world should know about, leave a comment on any post at eTweeple and we’ll take a look.

See you at eTweeple … Scott

I have to admit, I was very reluctant to even check out a new browser. I absolutely LOVE Firefox and the idea of switching to a different browser has never been something I’ve been interested in. Afterall, the only times I have ever switched browsers was when my current browser wasn’t performing well.

After listening to Leo Laporte’s software pick for the Flock browser I decided to give it a look.

I have now switched my default browser to Flock, it’s built with the Mozilla engine and all the extensions that work on Firefox also work in Flock. My first thought when listening to Leo talk about all the social media integration built into the browser, I thought HOW. I value the screen real estate on my browsers and the thought of all the built in features didn’t seem possible.

I have been pleasantly surprised at how well organized the features are set up, and the browser is gorgeous, and fast.

One of the things I am testing right this very moment is the ability to write to my blog from with in the browser. So if this works as I hope, Flock will be one of my most used tools.

If you’re a social media geek and Firefox user, you will love the Flock browser .
