Facebook Changes Things AGAIN


I recently read an article by CNN regarding the most current changes Facebook has made in regards to what actually shows up in peoples news feed. They have decided to take the "most popular" posts (the posts getting the most interaction such as likes, comments, and shares) and move them to the top of your news feed so you don't miss them. But they are filtering out the "less popular" posts which is decreasing what we are seeing in our news feed even more then it was before.



Did you know that you are only seeing 20% of posts from friends and pages that you follow, 20%!! That's it!


So how does Facebook decide what you will or will not see? According to CNN Facebook looks at your most recent everyday actions such as liking, and sharing, the amount of interaction you have with people and pages, then filters out people and pages that you haven't currently interacted with. Meaning that of the approximate 1500+ posts that will be made in any given day from friends or pages you follow you will only see about 300 of them!

What can you do to ensure you are seeing posts from your favorite pages and friends?

Thankfully Facebook has given us a few options to allow us some control over what appears in our news feed. Just a few simple clicks and you can easily stay more connected with the people and pages that you are most interested in.

Interact with your favorite pages posts:
The more you interact with your favorite pages the more Facebook will allow those pages posts to appear in your news feed. Make sure to interact with your favorite pages posts by liking, commenting, and sharing. This will ensure that you will continue to see that pages posts in your news feed, and it will be extremely helpful to the page owner as well. Facebook has made it harder for page owners to reach their fans without paying to promote their posts. This is hard for a lot of small business owners, and unfortunately a lot of pages have shut down because of it, and small businesses have suffered. So help support page, and small business owners and like, comment and/or share the posts that catch your eye or interest you. Its just a simple click but it can make a big difference!

Turn on notifications for your favorite pages and friends that you would like to stay up to date with.  
For pages: hover your mouse over the button that says LIKED on the page wall. A menu will pop up with a variety of options. You will see at the top of the list Get Notifications. Click on that and a check mark will appear beside it, you will now receive a notification anytime that page posts something, making it easier for you to follow your favorite pages and not miss out on anything.
For Friends: hover your mouse over the button that says FRIENDS on your friends profile. A menu will pop up with Get Notifications being the first option, as with the pages, click on it and you will be notified when your friend posts.

Choose how many updates you see from pages and friends.
This is another way to make sure you are seeing the posts you want to see. When you hover over the LIKED button on a page, or the FRIENDS button on your friends profile, you will see settings in the menu of options. Click on that and you can choose how many posts you see in your news feed. You can select all updates, most updates, or only important. Select how frequently you would like to see that friend or pages updates in your news feed.

So what do you think of the most recent changes Facebook has implemented? I would love to hear your thoughts!

Brand New Google Nexus 7 16GB Giveaway

I have always wanted to get one of these, I think it would be perfect for the kids to use for apps and games. I have heard great things about the Google Nexus 7. I would LOVE to win one wouldn't you? Well this is your chance to enter to win one of the brand new Google Nexus 7 (16GB) tablets that was just announced on July 24th and they began taking orders on July 30th.  This tablet which has the best specs currently on the tablet market includes a 7.02” screen which has a 1920x1200 HD resolution which is an incredible 323 PPI.
Dual cameras now with a 1.2MP front facing and 5MP rear facing camera, the new Google Nexus 7 boasts up to 9 hours of active use battery life with it’s 3950mAh battery. It also has Qi compatible wireless charging built in.
Audio on the new Google Nexus 7 includes stereo speakers with surround sound, powered by Fraunhofer. The dual band Wi-Fi supports Wireless a/b/g/n but I would have loved to see Wireless a/c support which exists in the newest routers but client devices are still slow to support.
You also get:
  • microUSB
  • SlimPort™ enabled
  • 3.5mm audio
  • Microphone
  • Power and Volume buttons
    • GPS
    • Gyroscope
    • Accelerometer
    • Compass
    • Ambient Light
The New Google Nexus 7 in spec is better than the iPad mini in nearly every way including double the pixel resolution, equal in camera quality, 4x as much built in memory and a vastly superior processor. At a price that is still $100 cheaper than the iPad mini.

Enter Now for your Chance to Win a Google Nexus 7

Thanks to the following sponsors Dragon BloggerSBABZY, TechWalls, CravingTech, Techetron and The Game Technician we are able to co-host this giveaway and one lucky entrant will get a brand new Google Nexus 7 Tablet 16GB.

This giveaway is open to anyone, anywhere over the age of 18 where rules and restrictions apply. See contest rules for details, but if you live outside the U.S. you have a few options, one you can receive $229 cash via Paypal instead of the Google Nexus 7 due to the costs in shipping and limitations in shipping Internationally directly from Google’s site, you could gift it to someone else in the U.S. or if you are willing to pay for shipping I will order the Nexus 7 delivered to me and then ship the device Internationally to you as long as you are covering shipping costs. This will add time to the delivery as it has to ship to me and then ship overseas to you however.

Review--Stitching Lemonade


Stitching Lemonade was born from Jody Gilster's love of sewing,  along with some of life's lemons. She enjoyed sewing and quilting so much that with the encouragement of family and friends Jody decided to share her love of colors and her unique style with others, so she created Stitching Lemonade.

Jody only makes one of a kind items, no two items are exactly alike. They are all unique, and special. If you purchase one of Stitching Lemonades pieces you will have the only one of its kind, as Jody does not replicate quilting, patterns or colors.

 At Stitching Lemonade quilting is the passion. Jody offers one of a kind quilted blankets, mug rugs, purses, hand bags, table runners, party packs, memory quilts, hot pads...the sky is the limit! Want something special just ask Jody and she will make it happen!

Jody sent me a one of a kind mug rug to review. It is so pretty I feel bad using it. However, not only is it a beautiful decorative piece, it is also very functional. My coffee mug sits on it every morning, and I also place my candles on top of it in the evenings, it looks so pretty under candle light. 


The detailed quilting on this piece is just beautiful, and there is so much detail even though it is a smaller piece. I can only imagine how beautiful her quilts are. The bold and beautiful colors and patterns Jody chose are so pretty and compliment each other perfectly. 
My mug rug sits on my end table beside my favorite chair and is now a decorative piece in our home. I love the fact that this is the only one like this she will ever make, somehow it makes me feel special. I was truly impressed by the craftsmanship of this piece, and I would love to see more! Jody is very talented, and creative and you can see that in her work. You definitely have to check her out.

Visit Stitching Lemonade's Facebook page or her Etsy Shop to see all of Jody's creations.

Stitching Lemonade is offering a prize in the 50 Shades of the Moon Birthday Soiree Giveaway which starts August 6th. Jody has graciously donated a Table Runner/Hot Pad in a pattern she calls "Pretty Bird Gone Loco" Functional and decorative, that's what Stitching Lemonade is all about!


"Pretty Bird Gone Loco" - Table Runner/Hot Pad- 30 1/4 x 16 Inches - Layered with batting and Insul-Bright. 100% Cotton Fabric. Red, Black, White, Yellow, Baby Blue
Free-motion quilted front. Retail value $55.00

Enter the 50 Shades of the Moon Birthday Soiree Giveaway for your chance to win this awesome piece!
