| 05/17 | Access 3 is Recorded
I've been getting a LOT of emails (and folks in the chat room) asking whether Access 3 is finished.
YES... just about.
All six lessons are recorded. I just need to record the "intro" and "review" lessons and then upload it to the web site. I expect to have it online and ready for your consumption this evening.
Sorry for the delay... and I expect to have Level 4 out in a day or two. | | 05/05 | Keyword Search Cloud
I've added a Keyword Search Cloud to the very bottom of the web site. It will show up below the site navigation links. What's a Keyword Search Cloud? Well, in case you hadn't noticed, there's a little search box at the top of the web site. It's been there for years. Over all of this time, I've been tracking all of the keywords that you guys have been searching for. Well, the Keyword Search Cloud will show you all of the popular keywords that people have been searching for. I'm manually [more...] | | 05/05 | Added a chat pager
I added a CUSTOMER SERVICE chat pager to the web site. This will allow you to try and page one of us even if nobody is showing as "online." There are a lot of times where I'm working in the office and wouldn't mind helping someone in the chat room, but I always forget to log myself in to the customer service web site. This will send us a notification that you need help. Don't abuse it, please... but if you NEED HELP, that's what it's there for.
Now, I can't guarantee that I'll take [more...] | | 05/04 | Figured out the Theater problem
OK, I figured out why the new Theater page isn't working for some people. After an hour of tinkering, I discovered that Internet Explorer has a security "feature" to block "third-party cookies" from saving any information about you. Unfortunately, the new Theater page RIGHT NOW uses a "third-party cookie" to store your login information (username, email, password, etc.)
What is a third-party cookie? Well, to explain that, first you have to know what a first-party cookie is. When you visit a [more...] | | 05/02 | Made a few more changes
I made a few more cosmetic changes to the site, including a new header bar, footer bar, and logos on some of the pages. Let me know what you think - and if you have any suggestions for other improvements.
YES, I'm still looking for a "killer" domain name, but in the mean time I'm going to keep using the "...LearningZone" domains I've had for a few years now. I do like them, but I'm still searching for that one "perfect" domain.
Voice is almost back to normal. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be [more...] 6 comments | | 04/30 | Sorry for the delay...
Hey guys. This is Rick. I just wanted to drop a quick note to let everyone know that I'm sorry for the delay with releasing the new Access classes. As you can hear, I'm fighting a nasty cold right now, so I'm not able to make REAL videos for you... but just as soon as I'm better I promise I've got a whole ton of material ready to record. I'll be spending the next couple of days doing the things I can do right now... mostly going through some of your customer service emails. Thanks for your [more...] 3 comments | | 04/21 | Help me choose a new Domain Name
I started 599CD.COM back in 2002 with a mission to provide quality beginner computer training lessons on CD for $5.99. I initially planned to just offer a ton of different beginner lessons on a wide variety of topics, and keep all of the lessons priced at $5.99.
Well, after a year or so it became evident that certain topics were much, MUCH, more popular than others. So I decided to specialize mostly in Microsoft Office products. Word, Excel, and Access are, to date, my [more...] 7 comments |
