    Sharing youtube Videos
    Now a quick note about sharing youtube videos, this one is on youtube.com as https://youtu.be/IGBrDBbynd8 right. That makes the ID of that video be IGBrDBbynd8 ok? So to have just the thumbnail to share (like is on the page now at http://route6tour.com/Route6californ.htm Always start with http://img.youtube.com/vi/ image-ID-goes-here/0.jpg ok? then were it says image-ID-goes-here you paste in the IGBrDBbynd8 ID for that video, and then YouTube will serve up the thumbnail from their site for that piece. Something I learned and share here now as part of 'paying my dues' Yes, the code is JUST the image-ID-goes-here , keep the 0.jpg too ok? Have a good weekend.

    You’ve just finished writing a great new blog post. You’re excited that you’ve shared your ideas and expertise with the world. But what should you do next?
    12 Things to Do After You’ve Written a New Blog Post by Brody Dorland has some good ideas on what to do.

    http://contentmarketinginstitute.com/2011/03/blog-post-to-dos/is that URL and within it is a link for even more, it's called: 7 NEW Things to Do After You’ve Published a Blog Post.

    So armed with those 2 links, you're not going to wonder 'What's next, but rather have a set of things to implement for your blog posts. Recently my Social Media Checklist for Event promotion was created, it's available from this short link http://bit.ly/guyrcooksmc and even has a link for a short 'how-to' video

    On Google+ @ https://plus.google.com/u/1/+GuyCook/posts The first question: What do I do first? (in setting up their new website) The answer might well be this simple: Planning Session All good websites come from a good plan. More on that @ the About tab on my Google+ page

    Help your Website Everyday Have A Right Start - via Guy R Cook
     
    The answer might well be this simple: Planning Session
     
    All good websites come from a good plan. Sounds redundant, but it’s true. If you want to create a good and solid website, you need a good and solid plan. I know it’s hard to do, and I know you want to keep poking and playing with this exciting program, but it is time to take a break away from your computer and turn to the old paper and pencil. That’s right, we’re going back in time to when people actually wrote things down.
     
    On a piece of notebook paper, or whatever is lying around, describe your site.
     
    Take five to twenty minutes to come up with a purpose for your site, or better yet, call it your Mission Statement.
     
    Answer the following questions:
    What am I going to do with this?
    Who is going to read this?
    What kinds of information will I be posting?
    Why am I doing this?
    Who am I doing this for?
    How often am I going to be posting and adding information?
     
    Now, compile this information into a paragraph so it looks like this:
    This website will be dedicated to X, Y, and Z, and cover the topics of A, B, and C. The audience will
     
    be __________ ________________ _______. I will be adding posts every _____________ about ________ _______ ______________.
     
    I am doing this because _____________ _____________ __________________.

    I still think that the 'one tank of gas trips' are my favorites, living in Western Washington there are lots of close to home destinations on the 'Places to Go" list, and I'll start adding those here as time goes by.
     
    Port Orchard, Washington is one, here's a link to the Chamber of Commerce website http://www.portorchard.com
     
    Good journeys,
    Guy
