Many cameras today take Super High Quality or High Definition pictures. This is great for making posters, but not so good when you want to take a picture for a social profile. Most of us have received a great picture taken by a friend that is either too high definition or the picture orientation is rotated by 90 degrees. This post is a tutorial using Microsoft Office Picture Manager to resolve some common photo issues so you can use your photos with Social Networks like Facebook, LinkedIn.

What’s on your USB drive?  Many people have their entire life on their USB drives – contracts, proposals, resume.  What would happen if your USB drive was destroyed or got into the wrong hands?  Many times each day we take our technology for granted. 

That used to be the case with me until recently when I lost mine without knowing it.  Many USB drives have a little ring that attaches to your keyring.  It gives everybody a false sense of security.  It will stay on your keyring right?  Unfortunately, the stock ring they include with the Cruzer is not made to stand up to the punishment most people dish out when they handle their keys.

How do I know?  The other day, I discovered my USB drive sitting on the ground next to my car.  It had to have been sitting there for at least 24 hours.  I’m lucky it was only mangled a little bit.

You’ve created a LinkedIn profile.  It’s looking pretty good you think, so you decide to pass on the profile to a friend for review.  They tell you, they didn’t find it.  Or it’s not displaying any information.  What do you do?

Later in this post, I present two common problems that most people might encounter while sharing their LinkedIn profile address with someone else or even worse put it on a business card before confirming it works correctly.
