My business partner, David Ochoa and I have hoped onto the Poken bandwagon and created an image site where you can upload images of you and/or of your Poken. The site is WorldPokenTour.com

We are currently in limited beta release, as we are working on an easy upload script and some other back-end stuff. But you can still send us your images and we will post them right away.

We thought it would be a fun site for people to take pictures of their Pokens and show them either out on the town, at conferences, or just hanging out at home. Some are getting addicted to these and they are just starting to make a splash in the US.

So for those who don’t know what a Poken is.

A Poken is a tiny USB key with an embedded RFID reader/transmitter. When you “High Four” with another Poken it passes all of your pertinent information between Pokens. You then plug the Poken into a computer and connect to your online manager and you can then “add” that person to your contact list.

The contact information includes all of your social media contact information including Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Flickr and a bunch more.

So please check it out and let us know what you think and if you want to send us your images you can use the upload an image link on the site. You can also subscribe to the WPT blog where will be updating the newest released Pokens as well as some cool updates.

Well my progression has slowed a bit this week, because of working long hours lately on a couple new projects and not sleeping very well.

I haven’t had any time to do any exercising at all and have to step it up come this weekend.
So really not much to report this week as my weight stayed the same.

Starting Weight: 251 Pounds
Last Week’s Weight: 227
Today’s Weight: 227 Pounds
Lost: 0 pounds
Total Lost: 23.5 Pounds

Thanks to MyJewelryBox.com

by on September 1, 2009

Attending Affiliate Summit a couple weeks ago I had a chance to hang out with Trisha Lyn Favwer and her husband Dominic. If you don’t know Trisha she is social media guru and blogs at Trisha Lyn, and she is also an affiliate manager for Paulson Management Group.

One of their clients is MyJewelryBox.com and they were nice enough to donate some jewelry to give away at affiliate summit in NYC, I was one of the lucky ones to get a piece, which of course I gave to my wife, which is a beautiful BTW.

MyJewelryBox.com

So I thought I would check them out and maybe build out a site. Well come to find out that building a site will be fast and easy since MyJewelrybox.com has a datafeed available. Datafeeds are one of the easiest things to build a site out. Even If you don’t have any programming knowledge, there are several 3rd party applications and programs that you can use to build your site. I am currently using a datafeed program that a friend of my built and is currently in beta. I built a full site using WordPress and using the datafeed in about a day.

I wanted to also tell you about a webinar that Paulson Management Group is putting on about the MyJewerlyBox.com program. It will be held on Saturday, September 12, 2009 between 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM MDT. To sign up and learn more here
