I rode out to the Apple Store with my father and the place was packed, I mean really packed, because school kids were off for the week. My father is working on a presentation in Keynote that he plans to project from his iPad to group at the Buckland House in Brighton and he had all sorts of questions for the geniuses. Matt and Kim were playing on the sound system. I checked out the new MacBooks and grabbed a cup of espresso from Starbucks. On the way out of the mall we walked through FYE in the last days of their going out of business sale. All these kids were picking through crap marked 90% off while my father and I were standing in the jazz section talking a Buddy Rich record he heard at a friend’s house when they were kids.
Duane Sherwood called to discuss building a Facebook business page. They can look a little different than your neice’s page but not much. He sent me a few links to developers tips. I joined Facebook in order to help a business client use it and I let my own page just sit there occasionally checking in or cross posting a blog entry. Every few months I cleaned out the photos that populated my profile page, photos that someone else had posted with me tagged in them. If you don’t construct your own page Facebook pretty much constructs one for you with the photos your friends put up. I decided to do something about this and posted a couple folders of photos from my iPhoto library. I am only slowly getting with the program so I am probably the last person to ask for advice about using your fb page to get new business.
I spent a few hours yesterday cleaning up my YouTube channel. Actually spent most of the time watching my favorites like The Squires of the Subterrain “Sweet”, Rich Stim’s “Major Pipe” and Ornette Colman’s “Made In America.”
