Mega-Bite Feature: Facebook – What is Facebook?
Filed Under Productivity, episode, free, fun, guide, how-to, mega-bite, screencast, sharing, social, special offer, tricks, tutorial | 4 Comments
What is Facebook? Facebook is a “Social Network”, sort of like MySpace. One of Facebook’s defining differences from MySpace, however, is that it has a much higher population of College or Post-Grad members which means that, in general, the atmosphere is much more professional and mature. So, if you are looking for a way to connect with your friends, or find new ones, without stooping to the level of disco balls, piercings, and high school lingo… Facebook is your network.
Part 1:
- Getting an Account
- Finding Friends
- Customizing Your Profile
- Adjusting Privacy Controls
- Communicating with Others
There was just no way for me to cover Facebook in one 10 minute video though, so I’m releasing it as Tech-Bite’s first ever FREE Mega-Bite!
Under normal circumstances, I probably would have put this hour-long episode together as a DVD and made it available for purchase, but this Mega-Bite is going to be available to everyone and at no cost! Just subscribe to the Tech-Bites newsletter using the form below and you will be given immediate access to my full Mega-Bite tutorial on Facebook! Subscribers will also know when new videos or Mega-Bites are available in the future.
Here’s what we will be covering in the 2 additional Facebook videos (altogether totaling about 1 hour in length!) :
Part 2 (subscribers only):
- Reading the Newsfeed
- Personalizing the Newsfeed
- Adding Applications
- Joining Groups
- Becoming a Fan
Part 3 (subscribers only):
- How to Get Your Email Inside Facebook
- Adding RSS
- Working on Office Documents (like Word docs, Excel, Powerpoint, and more) together with friends on Facebook
- Adding your Twitter
- An Overview of Desktop Applications for Facebook

Afraid of Using Your Credit Card or Debit Card Online? Use Obopay!
Filed Under free, special offer | 5 Comments
A lot of people tell me that they don’t like buying stuff online because it means giving people on the internet your private information on your credit card or debit card.
Well, fear no more! I just came across a great solution with Obopay. It let’s you get a card you can use online without having to link it to your bank accounts or credit cards. You can even manage it from your Cell phone! (What can’t you do from a cell phone these days?)
It’s a pre-paid debit MasterCard. It was featured on Wall Street Journal and comes with $10 free when you sign up. Can’t beat that.
