Kind of as the picture suggests, really.

Anyway, I know I’m a bit late with sharing this.  I wasn’t sure whether to or not as I’m still in the process of fleshing these out into specific tasks (& then diarising those tasks), so it may seem a bit woolly at the moment.

Firstly, I should confess:  I rarely make New Year’s Resolutions.  Actually, make that never.

For me, they always seem to be about giving something up, or some kind of deprivation, or some other negative connotation.

Hello,

Here is the second part of my Beginner’s Guide to Amazon S3.

(If you haven’t seen the first part, it’s here: http://nikkistephens.com/online-business/amazon-s3-beginners-guide-part-1/) 

In this post & video, I show you 3 different ways of uploading your media to your Amazon S3 account.

1) Directly uploading to your Amazon S3 account from your computer

2) Using a program called Cloudberry to upload (works like Filezilla)

3) Using Easy Video Player to upload to your S3 account.

Hey everyone,

Today I’ve started on my Amazon S3 series, which will take up the next couple of blog posts as well.

I’ve created a video for you to show you how to set up an Amazon S3 account, and in subsequent posts I will show you how to upload files (videos, audio, images etc) to your S3 account, and then how to use that to embed your media on to specific pages.

I will also be using Easy Video Player and Amazon S3 together, so I will show you how to do that as well.

Hey everyone,

As I write this, it’s Sunday lunchtime and I’m sitting in bed with my laptop…I went to bed rather late last night as I was on a video creation mission, so I’m having a leisurely morning (to be fair, I see a cat nap in my future for the afternoon!).

Anyway, you may be wondering what my new video is about. I’ll get to that in a second.

First, I want to share something amazing that I saw a couple of days ago. It’s a bit self-indulgent but I’m feeling proud of myself so you’ll just have to humour me for a minute.

I wasn’t sure whether I’d ever do this…but I’ve recorded my first ever video tutorial! This has been my first time using Camtasia and also my first time recording myself doing anything on my laptop, so while I apologise if it’s a bit rough around the edges, please bear in mind it’s my first time!

Hey everyone,

I’ve just completely revamped my blog, and so it’s looking completely new! Well, it’s still purple of course, as if that would change…but look at it! It looks a lot more professional now in my opinion.

I’ll still be sharing everything that I’m learning as I create and grow my online business – what’s working for me, what isn’t, and any shortcuts or tips that I may pick up along the way!

Anyone else have that Friday feeling?  Well, seeing as it’s Tuesday, I guess that’s not very likely…but I have The Pointer Sisters in my head singing I’m So Excited (also used for advertising Crunchie bars on television several years ago).

What does this have to do with anything?  I do have a point to make, don’t worry.

You might be pleased to know first that this is a quick blog post (I can hear a sigh of relief all round!).  My laptop is dying a slow death and I can’t get on the internet at home at the moment – why is it that when you try to make things easier for yourself, you end up with more problems?!

Hey,

I’m busy creating the world’s longest blog post on my holiday to Rome (look, I know you’re interested really!).  But in the meantime, I thought I’d share this email that I got yesterday as it may affect you.

Now, just because my title is in that order, it doesn’t mean that this post will be in the same order…because that would be logical, and sensible, and all manner of things that I am not.

Firstly, I shall start with my tea obsession.  It will come as no surprise to you that I am currently drinking tea while writing this post.  I have bought a travel kettle to take to Rome* with me and I shall be taking teabags with me.  I learned the hard way from my Vegas experience (no kettles in the hotel rooms, so the vast majority of my spending money went on buying cups of tea).  So I’m not making that mistake again!

Hey everyone!

You may have been wondering where I’ve been for the past couple of weeks (though that being said, given my somewhat sporadic appearance here that’s totally understandable).

Well, I decided I needed to do something to get my focus back into internet marketing and my online adventure, so I decided to invest in John Thornhill’s One Month Mentor programme.  It’s shut now but I imagine after the success of this one, he’ll open it up again soon.
