I’ve been working with clients in the Pacific Northwest for the past 2 years and I’d like to remind you of my services to the community. I advise people and small businesses on how to make the best use of social networking.  Within 1-2 hours, I bring my clients up to speed on Facebook, Facebook fan pages, Twitter, LinkedIn, setting up a blog, how to link various social networking efforts to save time and explain why these are useful tools for helping businesses succeed.  I also use Constant Contact (email marketing) and can guide you through this application as well. The social networking and promotion arena is constantly changing.  New tools and services are being developed daily and there is a huge potential for using these (mostly free) services to get the word out about yourself, your business or your cause.

If you or your organization would like to work with me, please get in touch.  I’d be glad to do a brown bag lunch talk for businesses, consult in person or over the phone on projects. For a little background on what I’ve done with one of my clients, please visit: https://albertideation.com/wileyware/ I also publish a monthly e-letter where I discuss tips about social networking, highlight my clients and share my thinking on world change.

Social Networking

Hello there,

I want to offer you my services. I have been spending the past two years helping people get their email and social-networking games on. Whether it’s figuring out how to use the programs you have already, or branching into new territory, I can help you get going. I’m happy to work with beginners who don’t have a cleu, to those who are a bit more advanced but who would like to take the next step in learning how to swim in different pools and make bigger waves.

I am happy to work with you for U.S. or foreign currency on a sliding scale or possibly a bartering arrangement which includes some sort of home-cooked soup or a massage, firewood or a midnight road-trip to Las Vegas.

Yes, we will have fun together. Yes, we will both learn things.

Get in touch,

The Summer of 2009

July 3, 2009 by Leave a Comment

Happy Summer 2009
Happy Summer – from AlbertIdeation!
Stasha's Roses


Hello, I wish for you a great summer, that life is treating you well, and that you, your friends, neighbors and family are healthy.  

I traveled to Sierraville, CA for a fantastic rebirthing workshop, recently. It was very inspiring and I intend to write more about my experience, soon. Here is a short paragraph from something that the leader, Leanord Orr, wrote:

“To practice the Presence of God means to live in a way that feels peaceful so that we feel our Divine Nature every day, making us feel loving, creative, and productive. The daily spiritual practices with earth (good diet, food mastery, and exercise); water (bathing); air (conscious breathing); fire (sitting with it); and meditation renew our divine energy.

My simple recommendation for today would be to learn more about earth, water, air and fire – I’ll say more soon 🙂

July 2nd, 2009: 5:03PM: 90 degrees – In Portland we’ve got stronger heat than normal: a good time to remind everyone to water new trees that have been planted in the last 3 years.fruit trees

  • 3 gallons 2-3 times a week is best
  • Ask your neighbors if they’ve watered their new trees, usually most people don’t mind if you water for them
  • register your tree (if it’s a fruit tree) with thePortland Fruit Tree Project or your local version – don’t have a fruit tree project for your City?
  • Drink lots of water yourself.

If you like what I do in the world and would like to support me financially, please click here to reach paypal. This is a convenient way for me to receive contributions  If you have another way you’d like to support what I do, please let me know, thanks.

In the heat people tend to sit in their cars, eat lunch, make a call, all the while idling their car.  This next piece from the City of Portland explains idling simply and kindly.  Copy, paste and distribute, por favor!

IT’S YOUR E-MISSION!

Have you ever left your vehicle idling for more than 10 seconds while waiting to pick up your child at school or while at the drive-up window at the bank? Most of us have. Here are some very good reasons to rethink this common habit:

Vehicle emissions are the largest contributing factor to air pollution. The combustion of fossil fuels releases several types of air pollutants that are detrimental to our health. These include sulfur dioxides, particulate matter, carbon monoxide and other toxins contributing to the formation of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels.

Children are particularly vulnerable to air pollution. Children breathe 50 percent faster and inhale more air per pound of body weight than adults. Studies have shown a direct link between many respiratory diseases and pollutants found in vehicle exhaust. In fact, asthma is the third leading cause of hospitalization for children under the age of 15.

Excessive idling is expensive. Over 10 seconds of idling uses more fuel than restarting your engine. Idling for 10 minutes a day uses an average of 22 gallons of gas per year, and gets zero miles to the gallon. Excessive idling is not good for your vehicle either. It can actually damage your engine components, including cylinders, spark plugs, and exhaust systems, whereas frequent restarting has little impact on engine components like the battery and starter motor.

For the children, for yourself, and for the environment, please remember to keep your emission down and turn off your car if it isn’t moving!

1-2-3 TURN THE KEY!
All my best from the City of Roses!If you would like to meet for a rebirthing session, please let me know.

‘Om Namaha Shivaya: “Aum” or “Om” means “Infinite Being.”  “Shivaiya” means “Infinite Intelligence.” “Namaha” means “Infinite Manifestation.” “Aum Namaha Shivaiya” is a very high quality thought.’  **

Happy Solstice, perfect weather and good thoughts to ya!

Phone book opt-in system for Oregon!

March 28, 2009 by Leave a Comment

yellow pages here you throw it away

After the Phone Book

At Crema this morning, I attended a town-hall meeting that my state Rep. Jules Kopel-Bailey was holding.  I learned that he will introduce legislation for an opt-in system for phone books on Monday!  This is something I’ve been interested in for a while, and should be interesting to see what happens with it.  If this passes in Oregon, it could set a national trend going, which would be pretty amazing.
