Business Things I love This Week!

August 5, 2008 By Leave a Comment
Happy Business Group of People

I wanted to share some of the “things” that I love this week. These are all related to business – sorry. I don’t really do many fun things right now. Being a Mom and entrepreneur is hard enough so I kind of let the fun side of me go – only for a while though, I hope!

1. VAClassroom Teleseminar for Virtual Assistants, Solopreneurs and Small Business Owners; this seminar I look forward to because I had the opportunity to meet Mike McDerment, who will be speaking at the event, and he is very inspiring. So all you Solopreneurs this is your chance to learn some tips from a very successful entrepreneur.

2. A hot new WordPress theme release, I love it. It’s called WP-Vybe and comes in multiple colour options.

3. Twitscoop – If you love using Twitter as I do this is a must see tool. It will give you a real time tag cloud of the most popular topics being tweeted on twitter plus more…

4. 3 Video tips from A-list bloggers – I love the concept of adding video to your blog and business but am so chicken – I just have to do it!!!!

5. 8 Useful Tips for Building Your Mommy Blog Into a Business; this is a great article with really great tips that can apply to anyone who wants to make money blogging – not just Mompreneurs(tm)!

6. iThemes new look. Love it!

7. The brand new VAnetworking.com Blog.  Love it too, it looks smashing!

I have found these tools and resources to be of value to me and my business and I hope you do too!

WordPress FamilyUnofficial International WordPress Day

July 1, 2008 marked the calendar as the “Unofficial International WordPress Day“.

It’s also a National holiday here in Canada so for me, it will be easy to remember.

I love WordPress and I love Canada!

I have written many articles and guides about using WordPress and highly recommend  WordPress to all of my clients, colleagues, and anyone who wishes to manage content online!

Thanks Automattic for this amazing publishing system and thanks WP Candy for this great celebration!

Wondering What The Top 3 People’s Choice Social Media Networks Are?

June 8, 2008 By Leave a Comment

Then  jump over to Problogger and check out one of the latest posts.

Currently, it seems to be (in no particular order):

  • Facebook
  • Twitter
  • Stumbleupon

I would say that my top 3 social networks (right now) are:

  1. Facebook; I love Facebook and probably always will. All of my main connections are there and I love how fun and easy the administration is.
  2. Ning; I am really fond of this site. I love the really niche groups that I found there. It enables you a lot of privacy and I find it’s easier to get to know people there.
  3. Twitter; I really like how you can instantly connect and chatter with people.

What about Plurk? Have you checked out that one yet?
