If you listened to Part I (and we hope you did) you’ll know that e-VotingBooth.com is your online tool for voting on ANY of the over 10,300 congressional bills/resolutions listed on thomas.gov since the 110th Congress in January 2007. In Part II, Kim and I continued to ask Steve about how he thought e-VotingBooth.com was going to change the way people participate in the democratic process in America…and on down the line in other countries.

If you haven’t started using Twitter yet then you are missing out on a great way to network online. I decided to try out Twitter a couple of month ago but I didn’t do much with it until with the last week. Admittance to being addicted is a mild way to explain how much I love Twitter. Let me share a few details about Twitter, keep in mind that when I say Tweet it means that you have just sent a message via Twitter. A person who uses Twitter is a Tweeter. The entire network or universe of Twitter is called Twitterville. Meeting people offline is called a TweetUp.
OK, enough about my love of Twitter and onto the 3rd-party applications (apps) that you can get that will work well with Twitter. Below is a short list but look for more details about the entire list that will be released soon.
- Twhirl: offline program that will allow you to send tweets from your desktop
- TweetLater: online website that will all you to automatically except followers and to schedule your tweet for future release
- TweetBurner: online website that will allow you to track the activity of links that you post to Twitter.
- Twitterfeed: online website that will send RSS feeds to your Twitter account.
Watch for more details about more Twitter 3rd-party apps that I will test and give my feedback regarding them. If you know of a 3rd-party application that I need to test, please feel free to leave a comment and share about it here.

I am a huge fan of Skype. I use it for most of my everyday business calling. I’m not talking about just PC to PC, but from PC to landline/cellphone. Since I’m connected to my PC pretty much all day every day, it’s so convenient to make calls from there. I also save my cellphone minutes because I happen to live in an area where it’s long distance to call 8 miles away. Yes, I did pay a whopping yearly fee of $24.95 for PC to landline calls within in the US and Canada last year. That’s good until July 12, then I’ll have to pay the whopping fee of $2.95/month ($35.40/year) when that subscription expires. Check out their plans and choose the one that’s right for you. If you’re like me and tied to your PC most of the day, you can’t beat the convenience OR the price! But that’s not really why I’m writing this post… Read the rest of this entry »
