How to get more out of Outlook?

 

 Find All related messages

Do you need to find all messages you sent or received, relating to a conversation? Right click on any message in your message list and chose Find All > Related messages.

 

This creates an Advanced Find searching your Inbox, Sent folder, and Drafts folder for the Advanced criteria "Conversation is (exactly) [subject]".

 

A second Find All search looks for all messages from sender. This search uses Advanced Find's Advanced tab as well, looking for "From is (exactly) [display name]".

 

If this search doesn't find the messages you are looking for, select New search to clear the current search then create a search using the From field on the Messages tab, typing all or part of the sender's email address. You can use alias@ or @domain.com in this field.

GREEN TIPS

 
DIGITIZE.  It does seem a bit strange that in the "digital age" we still consume enormous amounts of mashed-up, bleached tree pulp - most of which gets used once or twice and then is tossed or recycled.  The greenest paper of all is NO PAPER AT ALL, so keep things digital and dematerialized whenever possible.  The more you do online, the less you need paper.  Keep all files on computers instead of in file cabinets.  Review documents onscreen, rather than printing them out.  Send e-mails instead of paper letters. 
  
One of the newest green innovations is software like GREENPRINT that helps eliminate blank pages from documents before printing and can also convert to PDF for paperless document sharing.
GREEN 
How many times have you wished you could remove some portions of a report and not have to print the entire thing, wasting paper and ink?"  (Okay, maybe as far as wishes go, this isn't world peace or winning the lottery, but very close.)
  
GreenPrint not only allows you to highlight the pages or images you want to delete and print them to you favorite printer, it also comes with a meter to let you know just how much paper and ink you have saved.
  
It's a bit slow on the printing - hey,it's only version 1.0 - but you just may find yourself shelling out the $25.00 at the end of their free 14-day trial version because you feel so good about yourself.  Besides, it's supposed to pay for itself in no time.

Here are some methods that you can use to develop visitors to your website and also enhance the search engine ranking.

1. The greatest way to develop visitors is to develop a fascinating web site!

 If your web site has numerous pages of information, then every one of these pages will be packed with words and phrases that individuals will learn when they make searches. However, if you only have printed a "brochure site", a web site that is a mirror picture of an offline introductory brochure about your business, then there will not be a lot "food" on your website. That is, there will not be a lot for search engines to place in their information base, and you will not get a lot visitors from search engine queries.

 

2.  Publish some of your info on other web sites.  This is one of the most efficient methods to develop visitors. If your website is
complete of helpful materials, then other individuals will also want to publish
it on their web sites.

You can enhance your search engine ranking by putting your essential crucial search terms in the title tag, the description tag, in your site's headlines, and in hyperlink text on your Internet pages. These are the on-web page elements of web site optimization. If you do this effectively your site's search engine ranking for a specific key phrase or key phrase phrase will enhance.

 

It is also essential to function on off-web page elements that are associated to

book

 

Earl Stendahl exposed Los Angeles to a wealth of art and artifacts while creating one of the most influential galleries in the world that has continued to thrive as the oldest continuously operating art gallery in the City of Angels.  Earl, a young candy-maker from Wisconsin with a modest education, had impeccable taste in art and artists, and had a vision unlike any other art dealer in Los Angeles in 1911:  to develop local talent into famous, sought -after painters and bring the finest works of art from around the world to Southern California.  Stendahl's story brings you to the heart of Los Angeles, peopled with celebrities from artists to high-profile buyers, rocked by scandal, and full of failure and triumph.

Introduction to Web 2.0

What is Web 2.0?  There is no clear answer to this question in a few words; however, it can be said that it is a concept that has taken on a life of its own.  Web 2.0 marks a fundamental change in in how we use the Internet.   

 

Web 2.0 is a movement toward a more social, collaborative, interactive and responsible web.  It is a change in the development of the web, web companies and society as a whole. 

 

Web 2.0 can be summed up as the process of getting "plain, ordinary folks" on the web.
