What do you want to do better in your life?

If you're like me, there're probably quite a few things that come to mind. :)

After all, part of living a fulfilling life is expanding our knowledge, and improving our skills, right?

Well, I'm here to tell you that no matter what you want to do better in your life that it's very likely that there's a site, article, news story, or even video to help you do it - probably lots of them!

That's the great thing about the Web. People a constantly creating quality how-to content about virtually anything you can imagine.

With video, it's become even better!

This is information you *used* to have to pay for in the form of books, DVDs, etc.

Now it's online - yours for the taking - *if* you know where, and how to, find it.

In the tradition of creating quality tools to help people discover great content online, I recently made it my mission to develop a new tool built specifically for helping you find all this great how-to content online.

I call it the How-To Seeker.

I crammed virtually everything I know about finding how-to's and tutorial-type content into this new tool, but I didn't lose sight of the fact that it needed to be simple and fun to use.

I really think I nailed it! :)

Take a look for yourself - I've put together a short video showing it in action:

If you get a chance, I'd love to hear your feedback about this type of 'niche-specific' search tool.

Also, in case you're interested, this new tool is included within my TopicSeekers.com membership site:

Usually it's because I want to give the absolute best experience to my readers and subscribers.

I mean, I could just type a line or two, or even a paragraph or two and leave it at that, but unless I can deliver something of high quality, I just as soon not deliver anything.

A new tool I just discovered may be the answer to my content-producing issue.

Not only is it a very original idea, but it's a tremendous time-saver as well.

It's called Zemanta, and you can see it in action within this post (the image and the related articles and the link below to Firefox browser on Wikipedia).

It's a Firefox browser add-on that integrates with some blogging tools (such as Blogger) allowing you to quickly discover media (images, articles, tags) related to your current post that you can insert with the click of a button.

It's actually quite brilliant!

Check the links below for more info on how you can begin using this awesome tool yourself!

BTW, I'm launching a new product shortly - just so you know. Nothing to share right now, but look for more info soon.

I just wanted to send out a quick note to let you know that TopicSeekers.com is now live!

Here's a link:

That's all for now. :)

Here's a quick invitation I have for you.

I've placed a live demo of TopicSeekers online that allows you to use the Topic Engine portion
of the site.

You're able to load and use several various Topic Lists and see for yourself what's so unique and powerful about this site.

This is just a very basic example of what's possible, but I think you'll find it engaging and pretty incredible.

The site launches in just a couple days (to the first 500 people only).

If you're not on the early notification list yet, I'd recommend you do so after you're done with your topic-exploring experience. :)

Here's a link to the demo (nothing to sign-up for):

Quick post today.

I've just uploaded a bunch of new videos about TopicSeekers.com that go further into demonstrating what this incredible tool can do for you. Look for a link below.

Before heading off to view the videos, I couple other things I wanted to bring to your attention:

• Due to upgrading my server, and the time it took to get everything in order, the launch date for TopicSeekers.com has been moved a week to March 6th at 12:00 PM EST.
• Along these lines, the additional week gives you time to sign up to the early notification list. Why is this important? Well, only 500 people are initially being given access - those on this list will be given first chance. Second, I'm giving free lifetime access away to 10 people on this list - you could be one of them, so be sure to sign up!

That's it for now.
