Empowering You to Become A Power Internet User!
I heard about the Weekend U Networking/ Introduction event that took place on March 16th and decided to stop by after work. All I knew is that Weekend U was a class to educate people on the internet. At first I wasn’t sure I was the right candidate for Weekend U since I already work in the Internet industry but I quickly learned that the course empowers internet users of all levels.
After a bit of networking, Dmitry Shapiro, an Internet Entrepreneur who most notably founded Veoh Networks took the stage and immediately captured my attention with teasers of powerful information he’d reveal during Weekend U. I was impressed by the myriad of topics he touched on that are essential to our internet success yet ignored by many.
Just a few of the many tools Dmitry will help you master:
- Use Google search differently to pinpoint detailed answers instantly on the web, without wading through pages of search results
- Always be the first to know about industry and competitive news as soon as it hits, before your boss, co-workers and partners
- Ask for, and receive, virtually instant help from 10s of thousands of people using social networks, for referrals to a prospective customer, input on selecting a vendor, references on a partner and other daily business challenges
- Immediately have an unfair advantage through information, speed and productivity over your co-workers, competitors and even your friends
By the end of Dmitry’s presentation I was eager to learn more and couldn’t wait to start sharing this opportunity. Going back to my new year’s career resolution to incorporate Online Marketing Eduction to help others I’m empowering 1 lucky Marketing Melodie reader with a complimentary pass to attend the Power Internet Marketing course.

I’m new to internet marketing soooo I need help with everything. I suppose free marketing techniques like twitter and facebook….
I would like to learn more about and master FriendFeed. I want to see it’s importance, and why/how it can replace Facebook when used in combination with Twitter.
There’s always something new to learn about WordPress.
I attended the preview session and the thing I’d most like to learn is how to live without a filing system for emails and documents. I spend too much time clearing out my inbox so it would be liberating to forget about filing emails without worrying about missing important to-do’s or not being able to find things.
I would love to master everything! I’ll start with Twitter, of course – however, search engine optimization is also on the top of my list!
Hi Melodie,
I would like to learn more about monetizing twitter and growing my blog followers…
This is going to be a great event. Dmitry is a technology genius and does an incredible job of simplifying the internet to take you to the next level. Plus he just moved back into the role as CEO of Veoh, so learn from the master himself. Take advantage of this…
Thanks to everyone who entered, Ryan B is the lucky winner!
General consensus is that everyone would like to master Twitter and Blogging!
Candice- I especially agree that it’s important we learn about a filing system that allows us easy access to emails and documents. We all spend way to much time searching.
Please stay tuned for more upcoming contests!
