Having to click on each and every Facebook friend can become tedious when you are trying to share a page, event or group. Is there a better way? Of course there is, just follow these easy steps. I have used this code myself several times for Anything Web You Can Imagine and Sabra’s Bass pages, a few of my friends’ events as well as A Macro Life – Macro Philosophy group on Facebook.

1. Go to the group, event or page and click the suggest to/invite friends link.
2. Once you see your friends’ pictures loaded, erase the current URL from the address bar of your browser.
3. Click on the box below containing the code and copy/paste into the address bar of your browser and press enter.
4. Depending on how many friends you have you may have to wait for a few seconds to see them all selected.
5. Once you see them all highlighted, click the ‘send’ button on the Facebook invite window.
6. Please keep in mind that also depending on how many friends you have, it may take a while for all of the invites to be sent. They get queued.

For visual instructions, please watch the 51 second how-to video below.

This is a question that I get asked regularly…

Q: Hi, would you kindly explain what is not above the fold?

A: Above the fold is a graphic design term that was coined from the Newspaper industry. It is the concept that the most important news or most appealing content is located at the top to entice people to go further. “Above the fold” refers to the part of a web page that is immediately visible when a visitor loads that page. This is the content of the page that can be seen without scrolling the page. The fold for 1024×768 monitor is on average 578 pixels down from the top of a webpage.

In turn, the space that is not above the fold is anything you have to scroll down to see. If there is no scrolling involved to view what you are trying to view, than that content is considered above the fold.

Tired of the same old look of your blog but aren’t sure how to change it? Try this…

1. Download a new theme to your computer. Make sure it is a .zip file. If it is not already a .zip file (compressed) then you will need to right click on the folder and ‘send to’ –> ‘compressed zip folder’.

2. Go to your WordPress Administrator log in panel and log in.

3. Select the ‘Add New Themes’ button under the ‘Appearance’ block of the admin panel.

4. When this page is finished loading, be sure to select the ‘upload’ text directly under the ‘Install Themes’ title.

5. Click the ‘Browse…’ button to search your computer for the .zip file that you downloaded or compressed.

6. Select the file and then click the ‘Install Now’ button. Please note that this does not immediately install the new theme to a live state without your confirmation. It will then give you the option to Preview, Activate or Return to Themes Page.

7. When you are ready to activate, click the activate text on the confirmation page or go to your Themes page to activate. That’s it!

I want to say Thank you to everyone who participated in Earth Hour. On Saturday night, hundreds of millions of people in 125 countries on all seven continents united to demand action on climate change. It is being described as the largest mass demonstration in history.

Did you or your business participate in Earth Hour? If you did, why? Our family sat around a bunch of candles on the coffee table playing acoustic instruments and singing songs. How did you spend the hour? I am a supporter of Earth Hour because I believe we can make a difference. Why are YOU?
