With a rare mix of being both a social butterfly and a tech geek, he has always strived to find ways to utilize technology in a way that connects people and calls them to action. He is a strong believer in the ability to fulfill and extend the human need to connect with others online and is always looking at ways to leverage emerging technologies to benefit people’s lives. By the time he hit his college years, Ryan was deep into the world of computer programming; all while being a bartender at one of Indianapolis’ most popular dance clubs. In early 2004, Ryan’s odd mix of being both a technology expert and socialite came together when he created his first online social community, www.HupsHoopty.com, which was based on his recent purchase of a brown 1992 GMC full-size custom van. This online community became an unlikely stepping stone and a door for opportunity in Ryan’s life and eventually led him to landing a job at Indianapolis-based new media/communications company, MediaSauce (www.mediasauce.com). He then moved back into the social community world once again when he launched the locally-based www.IndyMojo.com in Indianapolis. He currently is sitting at Starbucks wondering where he will end up next. Mitch Maxson co-created his first interactive development firm (Transgres) just two years after graduating from Purdue University. After two years of sustained growth, Transgres joined MediaSauce to pursue a shared vision of broadband-based integrated communications. Today, as a partner and Senior Creative Director, Mitch has helped grow MediaSauce from 8 employees to more than 50 in just two years. As a constant proponent of “what comes next” and the emergence of audience-centric messaging and broadband connectivity, Mitch’s focus is on understanding individuals and inspiring new ways for them to interact with the people they care about and the world that surrounds them. With MediaSauce, Mitch can be found preaching the vision of the ongoing integration of communication, entertainment, and media while helping clients better understand their audiences and how to connect with them.Ryan Williams is a multimedia designer, author, and bassist based in Indianapolis, Indiana. In addition to this book, he has written for titles including Teach Yourself VISUALLY Bass Guitar, Expert Podcast Practices For Dummies, and Windows XP Digital Music For Dummies (all by Wiley Publishing, Inc.). He also acted as technical editor for Second Life For Dummies and Composing Digital Music For Dummies (both by Wiley Publishing, Inc.). His work also includes several digital multimedia projects, including podcasts for the Indiana University School of Dentistry and garage band tutorials for grooveboxmusic.com. As a bassist, he’s appeared with and recorded for everybody from Grammy-award-winning hip-hop artists to a stage full of bagpipers. His playing can be heard on several albums, educational exhibits, and monster truck commercials. Read more

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐[…]As someone in their late fifties who can’t tell his HTML from his elbow, but wanted to catch the wave of the e-revolution on such sites as MySpace, Blogger and the like, I found this book a brilliant introduction to the world of MySpace.OK, so it doesn’t plunge into the intricacies of HTML, but what it does do (and this is really AWESOME!) is allow you to casually mention to your children that they can always check out your MySpace page if they want to know what you’ve been doing lately.It does this through the tried and tested ‘For Dummies’ approach of assuming that their reader knows absolutely nothing about the subject (in my case this was literally true) and start building from there. The opening chapters explain what MySpace is (how many people over 55 can honestly say that they know?)and then proceeds to explain in simple cook-book language how to set up your own page.There is also a very interesting chapter on “Marketing the MySpace Way” which I found worth its weight in gold since I unashamedly joined MySpace to plug my own books.This is a book that delivers exactly what it promises on the cover – a simple manual to get any “Dummy” that reads it up onto MySpace with the minimum of effort. You may not have the best MySpace page in the world once you’re done – but you will have one, and for that I am very grateful to the “For Dummies” publishers for making this possible.

⭐I work with a lot of faith-based nonprofits and the current debate among them is should they use MySpace. This book helps answer the question. With more than 115 million people on the site who need to be touched with your message and moved to join your cause, why wouldn’t you want to reach out to them? This book walks though the basics in the usual great “Dummies” fashion. I was able to read it quickly and afterward set up my profile in just a few minutes. It wasn’t long until I customized my profile and started looking like a pro. Now I am building a network of people and exploring a space that helps me connect with all kinds of people. MySpace seems made to order for nonprofit outreach.

⭐This book was good. I remember the days of MySpace.

⭐got it

⭐this is how I learned to use MySpace.

⭐Excellent book.

⭐I am satisfied with the book but it took a VERY long time to get it. I thought it might have gotten lost in the mail or something.

⭐Easy reading book. Great when you need to reference a particular concern and need directions.
