About communication

If you follow my social media activities you might have already heard about the German eBook about facebook basics I have published earlier this week. Even before the blogpost series on my German agency blog that this eBook is based on was finished I was asked if I was going to publish the same thing in English too! The answer is: yes – but…

… it might take a little time as I do not only have to translate the complete text (51 pages) but I also have to do all the screenshots (100) again with English default language. So I’d probably do as in the German version and publish the different chapters as blogposts here first and in the end sum them up in an eBook too.

Until then here’s the index of the German version translated to English:

As with the German version I suppose there will be a lot of updates to facebook while this blogpost series is going on. So the index shown here might change while the work is in progress. I might even post in subchapters to make it all go quicker.

Until then thanks for your patience! And if you haven’t become a fan of schwindt-pr’s facebook page yet, please feel free to do so and help me reach the 100 fans to get a name URL for it. You can of course get updates about recent facebook news and other interesting social media stuff there too.
