Hey guys,
We already know that savvy celebrities are on Twitter, have Facebookfan pages, and engage with fans directly online. A few, however, have been more than a little late to the social web party.
One such celebrity, Ben Stiller, isn’t afraid to poke fun at himself for discovering the joys of Social Media.
Ben is also fresh on Facebook,and in true Ben Stiller fashion he created a video dripping with dry humor, complete with a fake family, just to let us — his new fans and followers — know that he is, in fact, online.
Enjoy, & remember to comment so i can send you some more cool stuff

You Need To Know These 5 Basic Tips If You Are A Twitter Newbie To Avoid Wasting Valuable Time!
Hi
Twitter is a fantastic social networking tool that can explode your business but you need
to follow a few guidelines so you don’t waste valuable time. That being said, Twitter can
be a little overwhelming and confusing to someone who is just starting with it and you don’t want to go in circles wasting time.
So here are 5 basic tips for you if you are just starting out with Twitter…
1. Figure out what you want from Twitter. Do you want it for personal reasons (such as keeping in touch with friends and family)? Do you want it to help increase traffic to your blog? Do you want to find local customers? Getting your purpose straight will help you focus.
2. Start following people. (All this means is that you sign up to receive their messages
[“tweets”] and you can message them back.) If you follow them, they will most likely follow you. Thank people when they follow you.
You can use the search feature (www.search.twitter.com) and find the people you want –
just put in the search terms you are looking for. If you want to find dog owners in Chico,
go for it. If you want to find local people to network with, that's fine, too. Just search.
3. Be interactive and send messages (tweets) out to people. Make sure you ask and answer questions and give value to the community. You don't have to say anything profound – just relevant.
4. Start “tweeting” right away. The best way to get followers is to say something – your tweets will come up in searches, so make sure you say things that reflect you well. Say things that are relevant and not just sending out sales pitches. Don't be afraid to give a
word of encouragement or a suggestion to someone.
5. Do not send “spammy” messages! Let me repeat: Do NOT send spammy messages!
If all you do is send out tweets that scream, “Buy from me! Buy from me!” you will quickly lose followers. Just don't do it!
Video and audio is a powerful way to learn very quickly. You retain 400% more with video and audio. If you like audio and want to retain more by watching an audio with a video you can watch this YouTube Webinar. O'Reilly Webcast: Twitter for Business:

P.S - This Webinar is 1hr and 2 min so you’re best to set some time aside and take notes without interruptions. However, it’s a fantastic way to very quickly learn how to use Twitter, what NOT to do and what to do without spinning around in circles trying to figure out how to use Twitter for your business........Enjoy!!!

Get Rid of Procrastination, Now!
Do you put off your work for later, only to find your deadlines steadily creeping in? Then you, my friend, are one of the millions of people afflicted by the procrastination virus. Procrastination is the biggest reason for loss of productivity and late output. Though many would not admit it, they would benefit greatly if they start their work on time.
For many people, putting off their work for later is more habit than desire. It can be so hard to get into a groove where starting your tasks in a timely fashion is a priority, especially if the consequences for being late are things that one can probably bear.
If you are one of these people, yet you desire to shake off your propensity for procrastination, then you have come to the right place. Here are a few tips to help you overcome this dilemma and become a more productive and reliable person.
1. Set schedules It is very important that you have a list of activities to accomplish per day. This will help you realistically budget your time and resources. One of the cardinal sins people commit in regards to performing their tasks is to put off their work because they feel like there is so much time left. A journal, organizer, or calendar of events will help you plan and schedule your task so that you can start them promptly and finish them on time.
2. Save the Vacation for Later ñ Many people put their work off for later saying, ìI'll just have a little fun then buckle down to work later.î While it may be true that they may have more than enough time to accomplish their tasks, it would be better if they finished their work first and relax afterwards.
Wouldn't relaxation be sweeter if it were after a taxing job? If you choose to lay back and relax before doing your tasks, you will be more prone to burnout and will have nothing exciting left to look forward to after accomplishing a task. It is always better to have slack period AFTER a job than before one, especially considering that people are wont to overusing their slack time. This is suicide if you are heading towards a deadline.
3. Never Underestimate Your Tasks Sometimes procrastination sets in because people underestimate the resources, difficulty, and time spent for a particular task. They will usually say, ìIt's just mowing the lawn, its easy; I could do it in a jiffy. The problem is, no matter how trivial the task, it still takes time and resources to accomplish. If you underestimate a task, you will most likely set too little time to do it and schedule it too close to its deadline.
4. Don't Allow Yourself to Get Comfortable Doing Nothing It would definitely help if you kept a subconscious alarm whenever you are doing nothing. Get this alarm to remind you of things that may need to be done. This will help you foster the notion that jobs accomplished now means more time for relaxation later. However, even if this is the case, do not forget to put ample time in for rest and to remove all thoughts of troubles before hitting the sack. The trick here, however, is not to overdo you rest. There is a difference between resting and idling. Always set the right amount of time for rest and stick to that schedule.

Before You Can Make Money Online, You Need To Do This
You’ve heard the stories of people making an incredible amount of money online. Sometimes it’s a little hard to believe. But the stories are true.
When you investigated further, you were amazed to discover these weren’t the online versions of Donald Trump. Usually, these folks who’re pulling in all this cash are just regular people. People just like you and me. Average folks.
Then it hits you – you can do this too. You can make money online too. And all you have to do is create a simple ebook and start selling it on Clickbank.
So far so good. But here’s where the wheels come off the money-making bus for most people…
Because you hear so much about making money with ebooks, aspiring online marketers often start working on their ebooks immediately. Eventually they finish the ebook, create a sales page and start driving traffic to their site – at which point they get an unpleasant surprise…
No one wants to buy the product. And so they don’t make a dime. Worse yet, all the time and money already poured into the venture are completely wasted.
So how do you avoid this nightmare scenario? It’s simple, really. All you have to do is find out what your market wants… and then give it to them. (As opposed to guessing what they want and then writing an ebook no one wants to read!)
Here’s the secret to finding out what people want: Simply find out what they’re ALREADY buying!
You see, you don’t need to reinvent the wheel. You shouldn’t guess. And you shouldn’t try to force products on people that you think they “need” (because if they don’t also want these products, you’ll go broke trying to convince people to buy them).
Here’s how to find out what people are already buying in three easy steps:
Step 1: Go to Clickbank.com and view the marketplace. Either browse the categories or use their search function to search for niche products. Those products at the top of the search results and categories are the bestsellers.
Step 2: Visit Amazon.com. Next, go to Amazon and run a search for your
market keywords (like “copywriting” or “making candles”). Those books appearing at the top of the search results are the most popular products in the niche.
Step 3: Run a quick search in Google. Finally, enter those same keywords into Google and see what pops up in the regular search results as well as the sponsored results. What are the top sites in your niche selling?
Once you complete these three simple steps, you’ll know exactly what your market is already buying. And then all you have to do is make a similar – but better – product! You do that by studying the competition, finding the flaws in their products, and making sure your product doesn’t include those same flaws.
TIP: You find out a product’s flaws simply by reading and using the product for yourself. But you can also search online for product reviews (check Amazon for starters). If you see customers repeatedly mentioning a weakness of the product, then you’ll instantly know how to create a better product.
Now that you know what your market wants, what’s the next step?
