Do you use a microwave at the office? Do you know how it works? How about your cell phone? Taking a step back, what can Green Energy do for you and how should you go about applying it? What are the benefits of teleworking, and how can you find a job on LinkedIn?
As professional writers, editors, and consultants, Deb and I have worked together for more than 25 years to answer questions like these. (Separate offices help, in case you're wondering!) We write about technology that’s part of our culture and our lives. We also write about to how to use technology to improve the quality of your life, such as finding a new job, working for yourself, or simply enjoying more time for yourself. Think of e-commerce and eBay and Amazon, green energy, telecommuting, and the social web. We’ve written 19 books from The Complete Passive Solar Home Book (Tab/McGraw-Hill, 1985) to How to Find a Job on LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace and other Social Networks (McGraw-Hill 2009 ). Our bestselling book is eBay PowerSeller Secrets, with more than 40,000 copies in print.
We think Social Networking is awesome, because of what it means to people personally, as well as to businesses. So we've been writing about YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn and how people can use those sites to market their businesses and find jobs.
You should know a bit more about us before shelling out that hard-earned cash on our books or consulting services. Brad was America Online's Editorial Director during all that craziness of the Internet boom era. You should hear the wild stories he tells about those times, when we felt we were on a mission to change the world. Deb’s worked as a technology editor for McGraw-Hill, and now works as a librarian when she’s not writing books.
Deb is one of the world's great speakers, and she frequently speaks on topics related to our books. She's gotten rave reviews for her delivery style, and ability to provide an audience with just the information they want.
Publications such as Newsweek, The Chicago Tribune, Life Magazine, Woman’s Day, and U.S. News and World Report have featured our work. We're also consultants for such firms as the Gerson Lehrman Group and DeMatteo Monness. We also work with new authors seeking to get their books published, and entrepreneurs developing plans for new Internet-related businesses.
We are always looking for new projects so don't hesitate to contact us to discuss how we might work together.
