How to change your name in LinkedIn

A friend of mine had accidentally set up his LinkedIn.com account with his company name.

It’s actually better to set up your personal profile with your personal name and link to your company as a company.

People can find you, you don’t look like you are technically challenged, and so on..

Also better to have your organization set up as an organization for similar reasons.

I recorded it for him, and now you can make use of it to.

How to get rid of low toner messages and save money

Ever need to finish a print job, and at the worst possible moment, your printer decides to go on strike, telling you that your toner has run out, even though you have a fairly new cartridge?

Or maybe, like me, you have seen “Magenta toner is low”, but you just wish to print in black and white? It is a bit silly to not be able to print in black and white due to a magenta toner low message. On some printers though, you cannot get past this message. It was not easy to search and find an answer to get my printer back to work. Once I did figure it out, I wanted to post the steps not just to help us remember, but to help others do printer toner resets.

Facebook is stopping Notes – which many bloggers use

Many of my friends and clients use the Notes feature as a way to import content from their blogs automatically.

Facebook has announced that they are disabling the Notes feature – and have promised

“We’re focused on creating even better tools for Pages. Look for announcements soon.”

I am very interested in seeing what Facebook does next.

Facebook, the continuously changing, frustrating to predict, and cant complain too much because it is Free, tool.
I will be sure to email those on the subscription list once new strategies emerge.

In a way, I am a little glad. I personally like to drive traffic directly to the blog posts, where comments can be made rather than receive the comments on Facebook’s notes section directly.

How to Learn Project Management

Years ago a friend who recently graduated with an MBA asked me for resources on how to learn project management, as she started her career as a project manager.  Even though I had worked for Andersen Consulting – now Accenture – and they had wanted to me to move into project management before I left,  I just did not have a process to approach Project Management. It’s something I just did based upon how I observed others doing it, sometimes wanting to do the exact opposite.  This is the article I wish I would have read back then.
