I have been working away to create ways and means for us to connect more easily. Though newsletters and email are fine, there are so many faster and more fun ways to actually interact together, rather than just me sending out a one way (me to you) email. There is something great about a conversation, you have instant recognition and just feel like you have connected. So with this in mind let me share with you the, now, many other ways we can connect.
You probably know about That Crystal Sites' social networking site,that's kind of like Facebook though it is only for my customers. It has a great vibe in there at the moment with lots of lovely photos and conversations unfolding among beautiful and diverse people.
I have just created a Facebook Fan Page where we can all meet, chat, discuss, share photos and be social. I also have a Twitter account which is perfect for quick updates. If you have an account you can follow my tweets or posts. Now that all these accounts (facebook, the blog, the social site and youtube) are all linked, when something I am working on goes live, Twitter will send a tweet out and you will know about it instantly.
However my most favourite creation is the new toolbar. Free to download, you get a toolbar across the top of your screen, which to start with has a google search window, a search similar sites option, a dictionary, a quote of the day link, direct access to the newest crystal additions on That Crystal site, access to your wish list or site search within That Crystal Site. Then links to the Social site and Forum, the Crystal guide and Conditions index, followed by access to other social networks, like facebook and twitter, the weather and messages from me. Plus you can add your add-on tools. There are 220,000 to choose from... too much for me to go through! To give you an idea, there is radio, pod casts, TV, sport, news, games - you name it - it really is amazing.
I will be adding RSS feeds which will let you know when I have actually loaded new stock on the site. So for those of you that go on to check for new stock, the tool bar will let you know exactly when it goes live, rather than you have to go back and keep checking! Plus, I can change or add things too, if majority says 'never use it, but would love pod casts, or music or games'... there are some super creative people in this world who are creating ways for linking people up all over the world. I love it.Seems to work best so far in Internet Explorer... I am working on Firefox now... there is no spy ware, it is clean and easy to use. A couple of mouse clicks and its live. And should you not like it, it can be unloaded - which I love!
Download it for easy access to everything 'That Crystal Site'...now just a click away, then let me know what you think, all feedback is gratefully welcomed.
Here's what Judith had to say about the tool bar:
'The New Tool Bar Works A Dream For Me, SOOOOOOOO Much Easier.'
