Ebook Revolution: Easily Convert PDF eBooks to Cool Spiral Bound Booklets!
July 7, 2009
Here’s my beef with ebooks- they’re a pain the the neck to actually read.
You know what I’m talking about. Unless you’ve got a really comfortable desk chair, who wants to actually sit and read a 150 page document on their monitor?
But like Winston Wolff, I solve problems. I suggest you go old-school, and actually make a printed booklet out of them.
A very convenient, portable, spiral bound copy can be yours in minutes- ready to lounge with at Starbucks, sipping your latte while reading about the latest SEO techniques.
And what about the effort/cost involved with something like this, you ask?
Piece of cake. Less that $3, and can be done in 20 minutes.

Help! My Hard Drive is Full! (and what to do about it)
February 27, 2009
My computer gave me a pop up window with a very discouraging message yesterday. If you’ve never experienced this particular one, trust me- YOU WILL. It’s just a matter of time.
The warning went something like this:
“Your C: drive is 97% full. And buddy, your entire life stops until you deal with this.”
(OK, I added that last part, but that’s how I felt.)
I knew I let my hard drive get a little sloppy, and it was time to start trimming the fat. But where to start? My iTunes music? Pictures of the kids? All these ebooks I download?
And more importantly, how do I find the BIG space hogs, so I’m not picking off one Word document at a time?
Luckily, I found the ULTIMATE headache saver-an amazing (and free) little tool called WinDirStat, which allows me to *visualize* my hard drive.
That’s right, if you can wrap your brain around this one, I can actually SEE my files displayed visually based on size. This makes it very obvious in a glance what’s taking up all my hard drive space- and makes it a cinch to delete it.
In my case, the culprits were the BLUE files, followed by the BURGUNDY ones. (see image below)

“Autographing” your site
August 27, 2008
I’m sure you’ve seen it before.
You visit someone’s web site and down near the bottom of their intro page, after the “Sincerely”, is their actual signature. As if they pulled out a Sharpie and signed the web page themselves. Something like this..
 |
Does this increase the website sales and conversions? Who knows. Test it out. But let’s face it, it’s kind of cool, and adds a bit of class.
NOTE:
I’ve seen lots of people with their “actual” signature on their site- probably by writing on a white sheet of paper, scanning it, and inserting it as an image. Don’t call me paranoid…. but with all the check-forging evil identity thieves out there, do you really want them to have such easy access to your signature? I’m just sayin’.
So, in about 15 minutes, you could have your own computer generated “signature” on your site.
