Making your own Green Tea
Green tea is becoming all the fad around the office. People have been going to the far ends of the town or ordering online to get just the right ingredients to make their own Green Tea. There are many reasons people are doing this… everyone has their own reason. Whether real or just something they have heard, coworkers are getting what they are looking out of it so I would say that is a win.
I went in search of an eBook to get some facts on the Green Tea subject. I was surprised to find this one that not only goes into why you should drink Green Tea, it also has all the info I needed to make my own. No need to take listen to the street for someone’s untested opinion. I was happy to see there was facts in ‘print’ so could jump in knowing what I was getting into. You can take a look at Stacy’s eBook outline here… your milage may vary but Green Tea is looking more fact base than fad these days.

Electronic books can be listened to, not just read
One of the best kept secrets of iTunes Music Store is that there is actually a very large area of Audiobooks. Recently chatting with a group on electronic books there was some confusion that a eBook is more about a Text Electronic book. Some have images and moving bits (hey, it’s electronic, let’s use the power we have over a printed book!), but it is all about viewing. While an audio book is all about listening without having to view. An iPod or iPhone/Touch are great ways to ‘listen’ to your book. Take a look at Apple’s offerings, you might just find that some things are easier to enjoy as Audio rather than Print – there is a whole area for Audiobooks:
View the many iTunes Audiobooks
Know others that might enjoy ‘listening’? I actually buy a lot of audio versions of books for my mom. As she has gotten along in years she likes not having to focus on a screen for a long period of time:

Build A Wind Power Generator
It was a long time desire for my father and I to build a wind power generator in our back yard. Our property dropped off a bit and had a breeze through the lower area constantly. Perfect! But, our search found very little info beyond how people out in the desert were doing it. That was then, this is now… I found a eBook all about getting the wind to make power, on a pretty tight budget!
Here is what the author says:
“The story of how we built our own wind generator over 15 years ago.
This project has proven to be a great addition to our renewable energy system. In fact, we are confident that this is the fastest way for any family to get started.”
“We did all of the installation work ourselves, and soon visitors to our rather unique home were asking us to install renewable energy systems for them too.”
“The simple answer to all of your questions is – ‘You can build a 1000 watt homemade wind generator for under $100 (including the wind generator plans ! ) in about 2 weekends and all of the parts are readily available and quickly obtained.”
Grab your copy or just read more on the author’s site.

Photo Techniques by Al Sanchez
This is the second group of eBooks I have found over the last month on Photo Techniques. Al has built up a library of information on how to get the maximum out of a 2 megapixel digital camera we all have on our cell phones to the maximum big number megapixel dedicated camera. It’s all about thinking for a second before you take the picture, and then knowing what to do with a digital image to make it perfect rather than just throwing away a image that doesn’t ‘look’ perfect.
