TinyMCE not fully loading (ie7 issue)

When I upgraded my blog to 2.5.1, TinyMCE (the WYSIWYG editor) wouldn’t fully load when using IE7. It would just give the error:

Line 1, chr 68 permission denied
Line 178, chr 21 permission denied
Line 209, chr 2 permission denied

Twittering

I’ve been getting emails about Twitter for the last month. Each one telling me why they think I should jump on board. How it will make me more money. Yadda Yadda Yadda.

You know, the same smoke they used about MySpace, Squido, HubPages, Facebook, etc.

Now, don’t get me wrong.

You can use these sites to build backlinks, advertise products, build relationships, etc.

BUT the main reason I never used them is simple. I didn’t need another distraction. Something else that would take time for me to update. After all, I don’t even update my blog on a regular basis.

So, I did like I always do when people tell me to jump on board w/ the next big thing.

I deleted their emails and moved on.

However, a few days ago I decided to go ahead and take a look at Twitter and now I am hooked.

It’s really a great way to keep family, friends and clients up-to-date about what’s going on at the moment - not what happened during the day/week.

And unlike a blog, you can let people know in minutes because the posts are short and can be made via the site, chat programs, desktop applications and even your cellphone.

If you would like to learn more about Twitter or see what I am doing, click the link below.

Oh yeah…

I will be using Twitter a lot so if you would like to follow me through the day and night, click the “follow me” button below my display picture at the top of the page.

If you decide to follow me, I’ll follow you too!

So just click the link below to get started.

Turn Problems Into HUGE Profits

One of the best product creation methods is to find a problem and then create a solution for it.

If you need to find a problem to solve, visit pretty much any forum. Especially IM ones.

Once you have the solution, you let people know a method to solve the problem and then a day or two later, you sell them the solution.

Here are the steps: Read the rest of this entry »

Turn Digital Products Into CDs/DVDs For More Profits

By turning your digital items into CDs & DVDs:

  • You increase the perceived value.
  • Have extremely low competition.
  • Dramatically cut down on refunds.
  • Have more chances to upsell.

I could go on about the benefits but I’m sure you get the point.

And you don’t have to worry about duplication or shipping because you can set everything up on autopilot. Yes, autopilot!

There are companies that will duplicate & ship the CDs/DVDs to your customers.

And no, it does NOT cost a small fortune to get started. In fact, one company only charges $1.75 per CD/DVD and a small S/H fee.

If it sounds complicated, don’t worry because it’s not. You can literally turn an existing digital product into a CD/DVD in 2 hours or less!

Anyone can do this and create massive profits from it.

If you would like to learn more about turning digital products into physical ones, simply click the link below.

eBay Outlaws Digital Items & You Make More $$$!

This past week, eBay has made two announcements.

The first was to announce that their affiliate program would no longer be ran with CJ.com.

This news alone made my blood boil because I have thousands of links out there and they can’t all be changed. Not to mention the time it will take me to change the ones that I can.

And when the new program launches, I will only have 30 days to make changes.*ROAR*

The intelligent thing for eBay to do would be to slash their commissions at CJ, not accept new people to that program, and increase the commissions with the new program so people at CJ will have an incentive to make the move when they have time.

Then, as I’m sure you have heard already, eBay announced that as of March 31, digital items must be listed using the Classified Ads format.

You can read the official announcement HERE.

The first thing this should take away from this is…
