How to use slideshow

I have used this application before and little did I know that this is one of the tools that I may used while doing VA work. Slideshow can be useful not only for integrating pictures to social networks like Facebook. It may also be use as a fun way of making reports and presentations.

Here is a tutorial I made on slideshow.

On using scribd

Before I was able to put any tutorial to my blog, I was wondering on how I will be able to upload it to my blog. :) So what I did was I reviewed some blogs and I found out that they use scribd.com.

Now my second problem is, how do I use scribd?

The answer was pretty simple. In our age of technology now, learning any application is a breeze. So, I went to their site: www.scribd.com and I signed up a free account. I uploaded one of my tutorials. Now, what should I do next? I studied the site again..looked around and walah! I found my answer. Follow this simple steps as I did.

At the bottom part of the uploaded tutorial is a navigation tool bar. I looks something like this:


Click embed. Then you will prompted to this screen:


Click Copy of the Embed this document portion. Go to your blog and paste the HTML. To paste, press Control (Ctrl) of your keyboard, do not lift your fingers then press "V". Your tutorial is now embedded to your blog. :)





How to Use Basecamp

My second tutorial! Yey!

Based on their site, Basecamp is an online project collaboration tool. It is a project management software which focuses on collaboration and communication. Basecamp brings people together.
-- i love this tag line. :)

Why use Basecamp? One, basecamp does not only concentrate on figures and charts. It brings in more ideas to a project by bringing in the ideas of people to the project through the use of messaging, and writeboards. Basecamp also tracks your project progress by using milestones and to-do list so to ensure to meet deadlines, remember important activities and events.
