Keep Track Of Your Links

Laura — Thu, 19 May 2011 20:27:40 +0000

Are you still using your browser’s old-school “bookmarks” menu overloaded with 2,000 links that you’ve accumulated over the past five years? My friend, there is a better way!

I’m constantly coming across website and blog posts that I want to reference for later, but don’t want to clog up my bookmarks menu with. And some way to organize them and actually be able to find them later would be nice as well!

Enter one of my most-used freebie web tools: delicious.com

Delicious allows you to bookmark anything on the fly, save it in your own personal directory and tag it however you like. Delicious even helps you out by automatically showing you how others have tagged a page. You can also use delicious as a sharing site to show other people what you’re looking at and discover new sites, but truthfully I find it most useful for keeping track of my own web surfing.

Start by signing up with an account on delicious.com, then go here to download a tool for whatever browsers you use. Delicious is MUCH more useful when you can just hit one button on your web browser of choice and create a bookmark. My best hint is tag each page with more tags than you think you need. Sometimes you’ll look for something later and won’t remember whether you tagged it “Los Angeles” “LA” or “California” so go ahead and use all three when you’re tagging your bookmarks. It doesn’t hurt to have lots of tags and only helps to refine categories and find things easier later.

Find a Ning Network

Laura — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 17:46:26 +0000

Ning is a super cool free tool that allows anyone to create their own social network. That means you can create a private or public facebook-like site with user profiles, blogs, forums and more.

If you’re thinking about creating your own site – stop right there buddy! Why start your own site when you can just leverage someone else’s?

I want you to join at least one Ning site where your prospects are talking. They might be there discussing exactly what they buy from you (for example, you sell surfboards and search for a Ning site about surfboards) or you might need to be a little more abstract. For example, someone who sells to bookkeepers could search for a Ning site about quickbooks, a tool that bookkeepers often use.

There are two ways to find Ning sites. Ning does have discovery tool on its homepage but let’s be honest people – it sucks. Go to http://www.ning.com/ and click on the circles to see what I mean.

A better way to find Ning sites is our old friend google. Simply go to google and add the word ning to your search term. So in the examples above I would type “ning surfboard” and “ning quickbooks” into google. When you’re scanning the search results just look for sites with ning in the URL (which is pretty easy as it will be bolded in your search results).

Once you find a targeted site, dive in a start talking! Comment on a blog, post on the forums, have some fun and see what happens.
