Can People With Minimal Computer Skills Really Make Money With eBooks?
June 30th, 2010
Not that long ago I was asked if someone who doesn’t have a lot of computer skills can still make some money with an eBook publishing business. The answer isn’t as clear as I’d like for it to be, mainly because people have different levels of computer skill. So let’s talk about who I think can and cannot be successful with an eBook publishing business.
First, it’s important that you have relatively consistent access to the Internet. Odds are if you’re reading this article you already have a fairly reliable Internet connection, so no need to worry about that.
Second, it’s important that you be able to perform basic computer functions like cutting and pasting. If you’re not sure what that means, then you need to spend some time brushing up on some basic computer skills. Also, it’s important that you be able to send and receive e-mail as well as have come familiarity with basic web browsing skills.
For most people, they either have (or can acquire) the skills necessary to successfully operate an eBook publishing business. What’s often forgotten is that you need to have a viable day-to-day schedule and game plan that you follow on a consistent basis. Without those two things, you can have all the computer skills in the world and still spend a lot of time spinning your wheels on needless trial and error.
Here’s the bottom line: you don’t have to be a computer expert to make money with eBooks. However, do you need some basic skills (such as the ones described in this article) to maximize your odds of success.

Harry Potter Audio Books – the Pros and Cons
June 23rd, 2010
The Harry Potter mania has not skipped the audio books world. Apart from Harry potter books, movies and video games you could find all the Harry Potter series on audio books formats – downloadable audio books, audio books on CD and books on tape. Is it good for our children? Decide yourself after getting to know the pros and cons of the Harry Potter audio books:
The pros:
1. The Harry Potter audio books are an excellent educational activity for young children that can not read yet or for children with dyslexia. Yet, young children may be afraid of some of the chapters on the Harry Potter audio books – just skip these parts.
2. The Harry Potter audio books are the perfect solution for children who do not like to read. It will help them get all the essential values from the Harry potter books without actually reading them. More than that, it could motivate them to start reading books. One mother told me that she allowed her children to listen only to the first Harry Potter audio book. To get to know the rest of the Harry Potter series, her children had to actually read them.
3. The Harry Potter audio books are the best method to teach children proper pronunciation. A perfect reading will teach them new words and correct speaking techniques.
4. The Harry Potter audio books will keep your children busy for hours. You could use them while traveling in the car, instead of reading to them before they go to sleep or just to get some rest from your children.
The cons:
1. The Harry Potter audio books may encourage children not to read books. In some cases I have heard of, children who started listening to audio books, have read less books. Yet, I believe it’s all a matter of a good education and parents’ domination.
2. Some say that listening to audio books such as the Harry Potter audio books may damage the imagination and creativity of the children.

How to Burn a Downloadable Audio Book to CD?
June 16th, 2010
When it comes to burning (or copying/writing) a downloadable audio book to CD, you must be sure that it isn’t for commercial purpose, but strictly for personal use. Violating this law can get you into serious copyright infringement problems.
Yes, the downloadable audio books are still under copyright, even after paying to download them.
The only instance where they are no longer under copyright is when the authors or translators have died over 70 years ago. There are certain publications by government that are not under copyright.
But the rule of "only for personal use" is still ultimate when it comes to burning any downloadable audio book to CD or any other such formats.
You won’t believe it, but there are even certain audio book publishers that won’t allow their audio books to be copied to CD. Audio book publishers can easily disable the ability to burn the files to CD.
To be sure that your audio book publishers allows this, do check it out before going ahead to buy.
It will not be beneficial for you to buy it with the primary purpose of burning it to CD to listen with your CD player, only to find that you can’t burn it to CD.
Also, when it comes to burning audio books to CD, you might certainly need more than one CD for an audio book. For example, an audio book of about 10 hours can take as many as 7 CDs.
That being said, below are the steps to take to burn (or copy) any downloadable audio book into CD:
First, the computer you want to use to burn the audio book to CD must be equipped with a recordable CD drive and CD-burning software.
In other words, it is this CD-burning software that can burn the audio book to the CD. And it is the recordable CD drive that can be used for this purpose.
Second, play the audio book on Windows Media Player. Ensure that you choose "Full Mode" when doing this, not "Skin Mode".
Third, you will notice the "now playing" information displayed on the right-hand side of your Windows Media Player. If it isn’t displayed, you should click the "Restore the Video and Visualization Pane" button to display it.
Fourth, you can now click the "Library" tab. You will notice the "Start Burn" button displayed.
Fifth, at this point, insert the blank CD into the recordable CD drive.
Sixth, click the "Start Burn" button. Your Windows Media Player will begin burning the audio book to the CD you have inserted.
Lastly, if the audio book is larger than the CD (most always are), Windows Media Player will prompt you that it requires a new CD. You can remove the one inside and insert another blank CD.
When the entire burning process is finished, it will display the status as "Complete".
