Technology

Well where do I begin with this one.   It seems like technology has not been my friend this week.  I wanted to make some updates to my handmade jewelry store , but the internet had other things in mind for me.  Yesterday when our internet connection seemed to be working in my favor I set out to do the updates that I mentioned.   Well that did not happen.  The network storage device that we have for backup was not accessible all day long.  Last night after Art woke up he finally got the device working again.   Needless to say we just backed up the device with a portable usb hard drive.  I didn�t know everything had to be so redundant.  So this morning was spent making updates to my site and getting blog going for my handmade jewelry store.  Everything store related will be posted here.    I will occasionally mention it on this one but any changes I make or products I add will be posted on my jewelry blog.

Ticket for going too slow

How does this happen?  I have heard of some crazy things but this takes the cake.    I can see a ticket for going over the speed limit but under. From reading the article it does not sound like the driver was endangering anyone by driving slower than the 65mph that the cop claims is the posted limit in that area.  Also a stretch of that road is marked as 55mph and according to the article the ticket was given before you get to the posted 65mph limit sign. 

Social Networking Automated

I have spent the past few days looking to make myself more productive with my social networking.  I have always wondered how people update Twitter, Facebook and MySpace without spending all day on the computer.   I have known for a while that you can schedule your blog postings so why not schedule your social network updates.   I discovered a little tool called HootSuite it supports multiple twitter accounts. I have been playing around with this tool and find it a very handy tool.   Up until today I only had one twitter account but decided that it might be best to separate my personal tweets from my business related tweets.    Now that I have played around with this application I wished that I had discovered it long before I did.  Now if only I can make a habit of scheduling some sort of content regularly on my blog.   I have been doing well scheduling content on my food blog but need to do so with my handmadejewelry blog as...

Concert in the Park and Dinner

So we had a good time at the concert in the park. Headed out to a new Greek Place in Huntsville called Taziki�s. Will absolutely be going back again. It is fast food Greek Style. The first group that performed was called Ashleigh Marie and the High Tech Rednecks. I was amazed to find out she is only 13 but very talented.

Concerts In the Park

         Well today is Monday so that means this is going on tonight.    Of course any decisions about cancellations or relocations due to weather are made between 5:30 and 6:00pm so listen to your local news or radio to find out if there are any changes.    My husband and I really enjoy going to these when we can.   I like to go when it is not so humid because sitting outside when there is high humidity is not one of my favorite things to do.
