Tomorrow I’ll show you how to search YouTube and grab the code you need to post video to your website. I’m also here to answer your YouTube questions. So grab a beverage of your choice, pull up the conference room, put your feet up and let’s cross the digital divide together.

Join me today, in my online classroom and learn about Social Networking.

I know you’ve probably been hearing a bit, or a lot, about Social Networking. Some of the more well known social networking sites are Facebook, YouTube, Flickr and now new tools are coming online. Microblogging tools like Twitter, Plurk and sites where you can create your own social networks, like Ping.

Whoa, a lot of new words, right?  I know.  It can be overwhelming.  As most of you know, I spend pretty much all day on the Internet. Social networking has become an integral part of my overall marketing strategy.

I’m inviting you to Cross The Digital Divide with me this afternoon at 3pm Pacific / 6pm Eastern to chat in my online classroom  about Social Networking.

This is the time to get some of the answers to your questions about what Social Networking is and how you might use it to promote your business online.

I look forward to sharing with you, and answering your questions about how you can promote your business online.
