ArchiCAD Basic Training – Eric Bobrow’s QuickStart Course – Video Lessons Give Beginners and Veteran Users a Fast Way to Get Up to Speed on Best Practices for ArchiCAD
San Rafael, CA (PRWEB) March 30, 2012
Six months ago, ArchiCAD expert Eric Bobrow released his innovative ArchiCAD basic training QuickStart Course. More than 140 users have signed up, enlarging the roster in Bobrow’s Best Practices website community to over 650 members and 49 countries from around the world.
Bobrow is an internationally noted expert and trainer, and has been called “the ArchiCAD Guru” by many of his colleagues. His “7 Keys to Best Practices for ArchiCAD” is a classic treatise on the best ways to work in the program, and has been avidly read by almost 10,000 subscribers to Bobrow’s ArchiCAD tutorials email newsletter.
The QuickStart Course covers the basics of using ArchiCAD, but it’s not intended just for beginners. Many veterans who have used the program for years have commented that the 13 hours of easy-to-follow video lessons have shown them many tips and tricks that they weren’t aware of.
Comments have included: “When did they add that feature?” and “I had no idea that you could do that operation as easily as what you showed.” Students have appreciated that the video lessons are available to view whenever their schedule allows, and that they can download the videos for permanent access on their own computer.
The QuickStart Course is one component of the Best Practices Course, Bobrow’s popular ArchiCAD training that recently celebrated its first anniversary.
Quotes from Course Members
QuickStart Course member John Allan of London UK posted a comment on the course website:
“The QuickStart Course should come with every new copy of ArchiCAD to get new users working with this complex, and expensive, programme quickly and effectively. Eric deserves a great round of applause for his generosity and professionalism in the way he has presented the QSC. He has packed so much information into each module that he explains very clearly and patiently.”
Allan continued: “The QuickStart Course is exceptionally good value for the money as it gets one, very quickly, working with the software.”
Albert Aeberhard, of Griffith Australia writes: “Your lessons are fantastic. I have already improved my drafting speed ten fold.”
Anthony Warburton of Hamilton Australia posted a comment: “Then one day while searching the Web for lessons I stumbled onto this fellow called Eric Bobrow. Well this would have to be the best money I ever spent. I believe Eric’s course should be the tutorial that is supplied with ArchiCAD. The lessons are fun and very easy to understand and if you don’t quite understand something you just fire off an email to Eric and within no more than an hour you have your own personal answer direct from the guru himself.”
Warburton continued: “I would recommend this course and Eric Bobrow to any user whether novice or veteran as it is the best reference going.”
Bobrow Comments
Bobrow writes “I’ve worked with ArchiCAD users for well over 20 years, and am very familiar with the struggles that come up when people don’t understand the basics very well. They do things the long way around, and find the program tedious and frustrating.”
Bobrow continues: “By teaching the basics with Best Practices methods in mind, the path is clear towards efficient and productive use of this powerful tool. I enjoy teaching, and love to get feedback from users on how excited they are to finally get a handle on working quickly and easily in the program.”

Sydney, Australia (PRWEB) November 22, 2011
Videos are huge these days. The number of marketers producing and uploading their materials on YouTube for easy distribution has risen significantly in the past few years and so has the demand for software that facilitates such. Screenflow is one of the tools that online marketing expert James Schramko uses for his own video presentations. He says:
“You don’t have to be an expert in order to create professional quality videos, that’s the beauty of modern technology. You don’t even have to face the camera, especially if you are camera shy. Video creation tools nowadays allow you to capture selected areas of your computer screen and then record a voice over narration which you can edit to your liking.”

What Screenflow allows us to do is create slick, professional looking videos that can be used for product presentations which we then upload to Youtube or our websites and leave our presentations on autopilot.”
“Another important use of videos is tutorials. People love videos that solve problems. My team and I do this for a variety of our products and for our clients’. Prepare the slides and a voice narration that explains everything, and voila, you have a tutorial.”

TubeMogul Announces Real-Time Buying of Video Ads Across Millions of Connected TVs
TubeMogul Announces Real-Time Buying of Video Ads Across Millions of Connected TVs
Emeryville, CA (PRWEB) November 21, 2011
TubeMogul, a real-time media buying platform for video advertising, went live with new partnerships today that enable clients to seamlessly buy targeted video ads on connected TV applications. These applications are similar to smartphone applications, but are accessed via Internet-connected TVs or other Internet-enabled set-top devices.
Internet-connected TVs, long associated with niche “cable cutters,” are rapidly entering the mainstream with growth in online streaming via set-top boxes, gaming consoles and newer TVs that have built-in application marketplaces. Based on current trends, market research firm DisplaySearch predicts that 123 million Internet-connected TV units will be shipped annually worldwide by 2014. In addition, over 60% of connected households in the U.S. will use a TV app at least once a week, according to research from In-Stat.
“The audience has clearly stated that it wants to watch its favorite shows on whatever screen is handy – everything from the smallest smart phones to the biggest smart TVs. Advertisers that can figure out how to easily reach customers across all of those platforms have a huge advantage,” said Jim Louderback, CEO of Revision3 and new media pioneer. “TubeMogul’s new service provides that easy and targeted access, with publishers still in control, into this gold-mine of audience opportunity.”
By partnering with top publishers, developers and exchanges in the space, including AdRise and others, TubeMogul offers real-time buying of 15 and 30-second video ads across hundreds of top television applications. Content publishers available via TubeMogul’s platform include traditional broadcasters and online media companies like Howcast and Revision3. These applications are available on Internet TV’s from LG, Samsung and others as well as set-top devices and gaming consoles such as Boxee, Google TV, Sony PlayStation, Roku, Tivo and Nintendo Wii. The viewing experience is similar to a web-based pre-roll ad, with ads appearing before or during content. As always, marketers are in total control over context, hand-selecting which applications to advertise on.
“Global targeting and measurement across many screens means more possibilities for branding than were ever before possible,” says Rick Bashkoff, VP, Partnerships & Network Development at Howcast, which will be among the advertisers participating. “It will be exciting to see not only what top brands and their agencies do with that data and but also how it benefits premium content development for distribution across all channels.”
The results deliver the branding power of television with digital advertising’s unique ability to customize, target and optimize – all managed via TubeMogul’s easy-to-use interface. By buying from a single platform, brand marketers and trading desks can not only set frequency targets across multiple screens, but also target and buy only certain viewers across devices by using third-party data or their own data. This creates seemingly endless possibilities, such as targeting viewers in the market for a truck and then customizing the ad creative based on the device. TubeMogul’s measurement comes built-in, so marketers can quantify impact and optimize in real-time by ad placement and publisher.
“Everyone talks about moving TV dollars online, but what is really happening is the experiences are merging and cable companies are slowly losing their grip on content distribution,” said Brett Wilson, CEO of TubeMogul. “With these integrations, TubeMogul is giving advertisers an easy way to target across all devices in a context where publishers are still in control.”
About TubeMogul
TubeMogul is the only video marketing company built for branding. As a demand side platform for video, TubeMogul integrates real-time media buying, ad serving, targeting optimization and brand measurement into its PlayTime platform. Over half of the Fortune 500 use TubeMogul to simplify the delivery of video ads in any format, optimize the impact of their brand message and maximize the effect of every dollar they spend.
Founded in 2006, TubeMogul is based in Emeryville, CA with offices in New York, London, Chicago, Los Angeles, Toronto and Sydney.

Super Yacht Video Platform Confirms iTunes App Release as Move to Adhere to Firm?s Lifestyle Commitment
Super Yacht Video Platform Confirms iTunes App Release as Move to Adhere to Firm’s Lifestyle Commitment
Berlicum, The Netherlands (PRWEB) October 28, 2011
Roy and Maik van Zoggel, founders of the locally based international super mega yacht media portal YachtsXL, have jointly confirmed that their recent work with software developer Aspider Web to come up with an iOS and Android-compatible YachtsXL application was, indeed, to make sure that their platform delivers on its promise to provide high-end clients “the sense of luxury and freedom associated with owning a superyacht.”
“YachtsXL is the first of its kind to offer real value to target clients, in ways that they can fully relate to,” says Maik. The platform hosts high-definition video portals that yachting enthusiasts, partner businesses and industry suppliers from all over the world can use to give their products, services and other offerings world-wide online exposure.
The YachtsXL platform is open for yacht brokers, yacht rental and luxury yacht charter services, hosting videos for most of the processes involved in buying and selling yachts, as well as showcasing all the latest news, developments and important events in this particular field.
The video platform hosts professionally produced videos and segments meant to bring together the key players in the high-end yachting business, providing high-definition video outputs through both web-enabled and stand-alone software options. The software allows users to easily view yachtsXL videos, as well as get updates from the video platform, which will play on any mobile device and through any internet service carrier.
“This gives our clients the option to access them from practically any mobile gadget – from handheld iPhones and iPad tablets, to notebook computers and PCs – and, if they so choose, even on home theatres and HDTVs,” Roy points out.
“The new mobile application initiative, which was made for us by software developer Aspider Web and released on iTunes early last month, serves as yet another successful move for (our firm) to underscore our commitment to giving our luxury sailing yacht clients only the best, which is what they deserve,” he explains, adding that “most of the people who move in these circles are used to simple luxuries like gaining access to what they need when they need it, and we obviously don’t want to fall short in that area.”

Kidzvuz?, the First Video Review Site for Tweens, Launches
Kidzvuz™, the First Video Review Site for Tweens, Launches
New York, NY (PRWEB) October 04, 2011
Starting today, kids have their own dedicated website for sharing their views about what they love – from books to movies to games and more: KidzVuz™. KidzVuz is the first online community designed specifically for tweens, ages 7 to 12, to create their own video review content in a safe, parent-friendly environment. Just like grown-ups, kids love to share their opinions. With KidzVuz, they now have a community built just for them where they can safely have their say.
On KidzVuz, kids create and upload the videos and engage in the conversation. But unlike other video-sharing sites, KidzVuz is designed specifically for the under-13 set. The site engages kids, encourages creative thinking and even provides the tools to learn about video creation. Plus, it is fully monitored by a panel of parents and COPPA compliant. Age-inappropriate videos and comments or personal information are never allowed or posted.
Key features of the site include:
An integrated webcam – so kids can record their videos without leaving their computer.
A film school that teaches kids how to make great videos
Badges: With each review or comment, kids earn badges and points, complete missions, and follow the leader boards, all powered by Badgeville
Social media features that allow kids to create communities based on shared interests.
Fan Clubs…and more
KidzVuz™ is the brainchild of two prominent Mom Bloggers, Rebecca Levey and Nancy Friedman. They met in the virtual space, and turned the online friendship into a real life partnership and business. As mothers of tech-savvy tweens who like to share their opinions, they recognized there was no safe online community for them to do so.
“Adults love to check out review sites before they buy. We figured that tweens would want to do the same” explains Levey. “So we created KidzVuz as the first safe, dedicated place for them to do just that.”
Safety for this age group was a big factor – but so was fun. “We understand the dangers of the Internet for kids this age, but we’re tired of all the focus on the negative.” says Friedman. “KidzVuz celebrates kids in the digital world. It’s a safe space for them to start creating their digital footprint — expressing their views, forming virtual communities, creating their own content, and having their say.”
Adds Levey, “There are 20 million tweens in the US, with $ 43 billion to spend – and we want KidzVuz.com to be the place they go to find out how to spend it – not from editors or professional reviewers – but from kids like them.”
More About Rebecca Levey: Rebecca began her career in advertising where she worked on campaigns for entertainment companies including ABC TV Daytime and Primetime, as well as brands such as Nabisco and The Discovery Channel Store.
She is the Social Media Editor of Mom Blog Magazine, and is the founder and co-host of The Blogging Angels Podcast, a weekly show about women in social media and the blogosphere. A member of the Yahoo! Mother Board, her blog posts have been nationally syndicated through McClatchy/Tribune and in The Washington Post. Her personal blog is Beccarama.com.
A respected public education advocate, Rebecca was the 2011 New York State delegate to the Mom Congress in Washington DC and a White House Champion of Change for Education.
More about Nancy Friedman: Nancy spent nearly two decades as a freelance television writer and producer, creating marketing, promotional and branding material for clients such as Nickelodeon, HBO, Lifetime Television, WCBS, and The Disney Channel.
A veteran blogger, her posts have appeared online in The Miami Herald, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Sacramento Bee and more. With Rebecca, she is one of The Blogging Angels, co-hosting a popular weekly podcast for women about harnessing the power of social-media.
Nancy was a founding member of the online Pregnancy Community of the personal genome testing company, 23andMe. She is the NY travel expert on TravelingMom.com, and has been published in numerous magazines and anthologies. Nancy is the founder and creator of the humor blog, FromHiptoHousewife.com.
More About KidzVuz: http://www.KidzVuz.com, wholly owned by KidzVuz LLC, is a video sharing site for kids age 7-12 . On KidzVuz, tweens watch and leave video reviews of books, movies, TV shows, toys, tech and more. In a safe, COPPA compliant space, create community, content, and connections with other kids who share their passions.
KidzVuz’ Mission is to:
Promote a community where tweens connect, comment and create.
Provide a safe, parentally approved, moderated space where kids can have their say.
Encourage critical thinking.
Give brands the opportunity to create authentic connections with Tweens.
Create the most valuable kid-to-kid experience on the Internet.
In fulfilling our mission, KidzVuz will become the premier destination for brands looking to reach and understand a highly targeted tween market, and the go-to site for the 20 million US tweens who want to know where and how to exercise their $ 43 billion of spending power.

Top 3D Gaming Laptops Video Released By 3D-GamingLaptops.com
Top 3D Gaming Laptops Video Released By 3D-GamingLaptops.com
(PRWEB) November 01, 2011
A new video entitled “Top 3D Gaming Laptops Worth Considering” has just been released by 3D-GamingLaptops.com, a helpful online buyer’s guide to 3d gaming notebooks. This new video examines some of the latest 3D gaming machines to hit the market in recent months and is well worth viewing if you’re planning on buying a gaming rig.
The criteria for choosing these specific gaming laptops was based on customer feedback, online reviews and the features/specs available for the price one has to pay. In other words, whether or not the buyer is getting great value for their money.
“Many of the big manufacturers are now adding the 3D option to many of their popular gaming laptops, but everyone has to remember that these powerful high performance machines can still operate in 2D or as a normal gaming laptop,” says Titus Hoskins, a former teacher who now operates 3D-GamingLaptops.com. “So even if 3D is not your cup of tea, don’t dismiss these rigs just because they have the 3D option.”
Some of the models included in the new video are: Alienware M17x R3, Toshiba Qosmio X775-3DV78, Asus G73SW-3DE and the HP Envy 17 3D. Many of these brands are well known in the gaming world and these rigs offer the consumer a well-balanced selection that should cover everyone’s requirements and price range. Although for a fully maxed out system, gamers will still have to pay a hefty price for all those extra features or upgrades.
While 3D hasn’t exactly conquered the home entertainment market, it is now being offered as an option on many TVs, Blu-ray DVD Players and Gaming Devices. We have even seen the introduction of some glasses-free products and laptops. In addition, Nvidia has confirmed its commitment to 3D, by releasing an upgrade to its popular 3D Vision Kit, which can be found in many PCs and laptops. This new 3D kit offers bigger and brighter images and is backwards compatible.
This new video on the top 3D gaming laptops will give potential buyers a quick overview of the different notebooks – along with the features, specs and tentative prices. It was created to give these buyers a good solid starting point in their search for the perfect 3D gaming laptop.
The video can be viewed here: http://www.youtube.com/user/laptopguide
About Us – 3D-GamingLaptops.com is a handy online 3D Laptop Guide which is run in partnership with http://www.bizwaremagic.com, a popular site which covers all aspects of running a business, from marketing tools to corporate gifts to computer notebooks. This video was created by Curtis Hoskins, who runs http://www.bluray-dvd-players.com, a comprehensive site on Blu-ray players and devices.

The benefits of having a full blown Windows XP based computer in a car are obvious. Not only can you play all types of digital audio and video, but you can also surf the internet, send e-mail, diagnose vehicle related problems and take advantage of advanced PC based GPS navigation software, not to mention use all of your home and office applications from the comfort of your driver’s seat. “We see car computer applications growing steadily over the next three years, both in the public service and consumer markets,” says Gusz. “Our big advantage is that we provide a complete hardware and software package that makes using a computer system practical in an automotive environment.”
According to G-NET, Digital Dash 5 is a big part of the G-NET Car PC package. Digital Dash is a car pc software front-end that features an integrated audio player, video player, DVD player, web browser, vehicle diagnostics utility, satellite radio module and other items that will regularly be used in a mobile environment. The software loads with the Windows operating system and makes using the car pc while in motion more efficient and much safer.
In addition to its newly revised G-NET Car PC, the company has also announced the release of the latest version of its GMUNLOCK device, which is an override module for the navigation systems on GMC, Chevrolet and Cadillac full size SUV’s. The GMUNLOCK allows the DVD player and navigation input features to be used while the vehicle is in motion and also adds support for the connection of an aftermarket backup camera. G-NET has also added new nav tv video input interfaces for the Porsche 911 / 997, Mercedes Benz W164 vehicles and the BMW 3, 5, 6 and 7 series.
