I've got a room with a view!
My family and my office staff are finally settling in to our new home in Colorado, and it is stunningly beautiful. Every morning I awake to a new view of the mountains and every evening the sun sets behind them. This isn't heaven, but it will do for now. :-)
I've put a webcam in my office, so you can see just a small portion of what I see from my window.
Joel's Colorado Paradise Webcam
Ah... just another day in paradise.
I will try to leave the webcam on around the clock, but at night there won't be much to see!
Now, on to the other thing...
Earlier this week, I told you about Squidoo, and how it can be used to promote your site and servies, as well as how it can be used to get new traffic to your pages.
Well, the fact of the matter is that my Squidoo site stunk... it was really bad.
But that has changed, thanks to Bob the Teacher, one of the world's leading Squidoo experts!
Bob has done an extreme makeover to my Squidoo site, and he has created a video of the entire process so you may benefit from it as well.
Once you get a look at the video, be sure to click the link on the page that will provide you with a free one-hour squidoo training interview that Bob is allowing me to give to my members for FREE!
Ok, I'm going back to enjoying the view.

WOW,
Better than my view of a 40 story building. How can I blow the image up and project it up onto my window? :-)
Thanks for the awesome sights :-)

Hi Joel,
Nice view from your window ... the view from ours is probably the reason we don't yet have a Webcam ! :-)
Anyway we're "fans" of your work but without appearing too "creepy" we'll just mention that we ARE promoting some of your products via affiliate links etc but with what we're doing right now we thought we would point you in the direction of our site above so you can have a look when you get bored with your view :-)
The offer is on the table ....
COME AND JOIN OUR TEAM PLEASE ?
All will become clear from the above site and links (hopefully) AND it ties in with what you know best !
Cheers from,
Gary & Val
PS We've just had one "Big Name Guru" join our team today so we thought you might like to tag along and join us as well ? :-)

I am sorry Joel but my views are better than you, I live in Azores Islands and always have good weather and always green.
Thank you for your support.

Joel,
don't mind those sudden thoughts when they lead to goodness.
Keep on keeping me abridged to what's going on indeed.
This coming from a netentrepreneur who never makes time to "post."
But I may if you keep diggin gold!
Hey... is there gold in them there hills your livin in?
You won't miss being an Okie for long. I know I use to be one. I even went to college close to Muskogee.
Never mind, only Joel will get that.
I've taken you up on several of your recommendations in the recent past. One of them being the htpp:// below. Thank you very much!
Anyway Squidoo looks to be interesting. Don't know where the problem is but I got the invite in two different email acct's and in both, the video stops at 4:18.
You or they may already be on this. Hate to think it was just on my end. I'd like to see the whole thing.
Anyone else?

Hi Joel,
Just came from viewing the video of your Squidoo lens make-over. I don't know if others have had the same problem but the video stopped at 9 minutes, 40 seconds or there abouts. I tried several times to get it to continue, even restarting it but it wouldn't go past that spot. Will try again later. Would really like to see it all.
I have just signed up for Squidoo and was pretty much in the dark on what to do. After watching what I could of the video, I feel like I at least have an idea of what Bob has been talking about in his e-mails. Very instructive. Thanks a million for posting this.
Thanks again for your help.

Hi Joel, We have something in common, we have both abandoned a flat landscape for a life in the mountains.
This is the view from our bedroom window

We live in the ski resort of Serre Chevalier and yes the adsense income from http://www.serrechevalier.org enables us to live (and work) here:)
Thanks Joel...
