Okay, it’s not as if the internet isn’t flooded with social communities. In fact, they are coming out our ears. I know it, and you know it. Trying to stay in touch with all of them is – well let’s just say it – a nightmare.
That’s why I almost passed on the latest invitation I received, but something caught my eye.
Does the word “money” mean anything to you?
EchoLoops has an interesting premise. The email I received stated the fact that Facebook and their like are making millions, and that means we are the ones making them so popular. EchoLoops, with its growing traffic numbers, is willing to advance your rankings in the search engines (by being a part of the social circle, these things get indexed fairly easily and you can be there, too). They also mention “rebate checks” for shopping, along with combining the power of Facebook, YouTube, games, shopping, etc.
Now, I haven’t a clue where this will go since I do not (unfortunately) possess a crystal ball. I have filled out my profile in much greater detail then several other spots I thought I would haunt. I’m working on the angle that the more you say, the better things go. We shall see. In the meantime…
Signing up is free. And if you’re just a tad tired of any particular circle that’s been running you around in circles, EchoLoops just may be your answer.
I received this from my father (don’t know who sent it to him), and I almost didn’t listen. However, curiosity getting the better of me I clicked the link in his email (whereas I’ve just posted the video below to make it easy for you).
Here’s the email that came with the link:
A palindrome reads the same backwards as forward. This video reads the exact opposite backwards as forward. Not only does it read the opposite, the meaning is the exact opposite.
This is only a 1 minute, 44 second video and it is brilliant. Make sure you read as well as listen…forward and backward.
This is a video that was submitted in a contest by a 20-year old. The contest was titled “u @ 50″ by AARP. This video won second place. When they showed it, everyone in the room was awe-struck and broke into spontaneous applause. So simple and yet so brilliant. Take a minute and watch it.
(If you have a good monitor and a great graphics card you’ll be able to read along. However, even if you cannot see the words, listen with your soul wide open.)

As a follow up to my previous post introducing you to the new Eye-Fi, I’d like to reiterate some of the many reasons this little gem needs to become part of your digital picture taking and the definite centerpiece to recording your photos and videos, and also introduce you to bonus features and a FREE card offer!
First the rave reviews… Time Magazine actually called it the “best invention” of the year, and Wired.com gives it a huge thumbs up!
Next here’s something I’m sure someone in your household can relate to (it might be you)… You know there’s always that one (or two or more) people in your household happily snapping photos or making videos of everything from birthday parties to sunsets to the kids doing funny things in the backyard (or if you’re more business oriented, documenting items on the job). The “unfortunate” part is, if your family is like mine, after taking all those shots, they don’t know what to do next.
Enter the go-to person who is expected to unload the camera and get it ready for next time. Often, like at our house, this type of request comes at the most inconvenient time when the designated “do something with these” person is expected to drop what they (you) are doing and assistance them.
That alone should be reason to get yourself the Eye-Fi wireless card, but there’s more…
If you recall, I let you in on the speed at which the Eye-Fi wirelessly gets your pictures off its card, organizes everything, and adds the bonus of you actually sharing your photos and videos even without having your computer on!
Now I’d like to also mention that their Pro X2 stores up to 4,000 photos or 3 HOURS of video with its 8 gigabyte SDHC capacity. (For those understanding true “geek speak,” it also uses Class 6 supercharged read and write speeds.)
Another great thing is you can stop lugging your laptop around when you travel – be it to another country or just your relatives house to the holidays. The reason? You’ll be able to upload your videos and photos through “Eye-Fi hotspots” at airports, in hotels, and even from McDonalds! Or less “exotic” places like from a friend’s or relative’s computer when you visit. Now, that’s a huge plus!
As a reminder, here’s another look at just how very easy the Eye-Fi is to use:
And, before I finish bragging about this new social media sharing, you should know that Google is offering a FREE Eye-Fi 4 gigabyte card just for purchasing 200 gigs of storage space. The price per year (from Google) is tiny for the amount of storage space you receive, and your FREE card arrives within 2-4 weeks!
So don’t let your digital camera sit around gathering dust – and don’t let the same happen to your photos and videos. See the benefits for yourself at EyeFi.com!

I love when I come across something that is timely and of particular interest to my family and me. Just the other day, I took a photo card from my husband, put it into the always-used port reader and what happened…?? Absolutely nothing. We had never had trouble before downloading photos, why all of a sudden did the USB slot “stop working?” It just didn’t make any sense.
Well after much fiddling around, and looking for this and that adapter, we were finally able to get the photos off the card and onto the computer (but it was really frustrating!). To add insult to injury, these memories will most likely sit forever on my C Drive, never printed and eventually forgotten.
So when I came across theEye-Fi it really caught my attention!
Now here’s a way to literally change how your upload your photos for friends and family, along with a unique way to store them!

With the holiday season upon us, whether you celebrate or not, large dinners and small will be served up this coming Friday.
Turkey is a tradition with ham and roast beef taking their turns on your table I’m sure. However, I cannot remember a single dinner I either made myself or was invited to where gravy did not take center stage.
We put gravy on just about everything, don’t we? It’s so versatile!
So, if you’re in desperate need of help, you will definitely (more…)
