Turns out those smart lads in the tech lab are developing the ability to subscribe to N21 Monthly CEP CD programs via your computer (Macs, PCs and even Linux boxes), iPhone, Android phone or most any other smartphone device. Imagine simply getting a notification on your computer or phone that your new CEP is not only available but already delivered to your device and ready for your enjoyment. As they say on TV, “but wait, there’s even more…” for you multi-lingual types, not only will you be able to subscribe to your own market’s CEP program but you’ll have the ability to subscribe to select other market’s CEP programs as well. Pretty darn groovy if you ask me.

So let the bean counters and decision makes over at Network TwentyOne know if this is something you’d like to have by clicking here and taking my survey. If you shout loud enough I am sure they’ll take this out of beta and into the real world.

Also, questions or comments? hit me here in the article’s comments section.

lay-ter peeps …

So I got to thinking it would be cool if we could do a live video webcast for a few minutes with Jim just before he goes up to speak and maybe even a few minutes into the Silvers meeting.

So mark your calendars for Friday, March 26 at 8:00 pm (+- 5 min) Istanbul, Turkey Time. Simply visit n21guy.com/livevideo during this time to catch the video feed.

Not sure what time 8:00 pm in Istanbul, Turkey is in your neck of the woods … click here for a listing of the correct time in all time zones and major cities.

Final note: this is what we call “Beta” so I am not sure how well the video feed will come through … but hey, its free so you have nothing to loose.

See you Friday!!!

2009 was a landmark year if for nothing else … it was the year I was “born”. It has been great and I have loved getting to meet so many of you and also interviewing so many of our global leaders. The Podcasts, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and this website have all been useful tools for spotlighting the amazing global community that is Network TwentyOne.

.

Amway turns 50 – What a great celebration and a statement about the viability and strength of the Amway business opportunity. I was fortunate enough to be in Ada and Las Vegas for the celebrations and the vision of so many leaders from around the world coming together to celebrate Amway’s success.

.

Network TwentyOne celebrated “20 Years of Excellence” in Las Vegas with hundreds of Diamonds and above from around the world. As John Maxwell pointed out in addressing the Network TwentyOne Diamonds, “the global leadership team of Network TwentyOne is truly unprecedented and to be respected for the achievement it represents.” And it is in just such an environment with so many leaders brought together from over 25 countries that we begin to recognize the strength and power of our “global community”.

.

Jim and Nancy Dornan were recognized for achieving 50 FAA points and spotlighted in Amway’s Achieve magazine (click here to read the article). In addition to this Jim and Nancy were presented with a check from Amway for $2,000,000.00 in Washington DC at our annual Free Enterprise conference… and yes that is their new Hawker 800 jet in the background that they spent their FAA bonus on. Nothing like seeing leaders reinvesting their earnings back into building their business.

.

Network TwentyOne launched it’s 1st iPhone application which while not changing the way anyone is building their business, showed it’s globally affiliated business owners that they are serious about embracing technology in unique and relevant ways. Also look for major changes to Channel-21 this year that will, amoung other things, allow subscribers to view the streaming content from their smart phones.

.

Network TwentyOne North America launched it’s new website (www.n21.com) and with it a new video on it’s homepage entitled “We’re Not Guessing“. Look for a similar look and feel on other Network TwentyOne websites including n21corp.com in 2010 as we continue to invest to support Network TwentyOne affiliated business owners around the world.

.

We added iReport to n21guy.com to allow Network TwentyOne affiliated business owners from around the world to submit photos and short articles from the events they attend.

.

Network Of Caring surges on to the scene in a big way with the addition of it’s new Chief Significance Officer RD Saunders who many of you have already met as he travels around the world sharing the amazing stories of your generosity and kindness for those in need. Click here for more information on this amazing charity founded by Jim & Nancy Dornan and the Network TwentyOne global leadership.

.So that is just some of the “sweet happenings” in the world of Network TwentyOne … but certainly not a complete list by any means… have something to add??? Do so in the comments section below as I’d love to hear from you.

Screen shot of the actual application showing all markets contained in the application below:

Also hear that a web based version of this application is in the works for all global markets to be made available to all Channel-21 subscribers. From what the tech guys are telling me, it will allow a C-21 subscriber to show an online marketing plan to anyone (up to 10 viewers at one time) on their own computer(s)… as you click to a new slide in the plan, all of those viewing it online will see the new slide. This app has been available in North America for some time known as “Web Presentation Live”. Questions or comments? Post them here…

Check out the video below to see some of the new “tech stuff” and to see my cameo appearance to the global Network TwentyOne family.

Included in this application are 2 videos (We’re Not Guessing & 20 Years of Significance) as well as an EDC and above Profiles iBook and of course… a link to the iPhone/iTouch version of this website. I just downloaded and installed the app and it is pretty cool.

One point to keep in mind is that because of the application file size being over 10 Mb, the iTunes app store requires that you download from your desktop or from a WiFi connection rather than via your 3G phone network.

The smart people at Network TwentyOne tell me that based on feedback and input they will explore other iPhone (as well as other mobile device) applications in the future.

Click here to download today and be sure to share what you think about this exciting new application below.

So, hard at work on mobile editions of n21guy.com … have a new iPhone enabled mobile site and also one for BlackBerry and other Smart Phones.

The iPhone has more functionaly and looks nicer (of course) but the BlackBerry/Smart Phone version works just fine. The features of the website are “auto sensing” so you may simply visit n21guy.com from your favorite mobile device and let me know what you think.

.

…

OK, this has begun to cause quite a stir so I did a little more digging. Here is a screen capture from the actual iPhone app. Two videos and a Profiles of Success e-book for $0.99 … seems like a smokin’ deal to me.

Also, here is the second video, 20 Years of Significance that will be in the application … Very cool indeed!

.

From what I hear this will also be incorporated into the North American Network TwentyOne website redesign that is scheduled to go live next month as well.

Appears to be a position piece for Network TwentyOne … I like it! Edgy and upbeat … what do you think?

Some of the key components of this site are:

• Ability to subscribe via email to all posts made here. These email will be limited to 1 per day and only sent on days when a new blog post is added here. To subscribe simply click here or on the “envelope” icon in the upper right of this page.
• Links to the latest N21-Cast weekly podcast – These are free weekly interviews conducted by n21guy and special leadership guests from around the world.
• n21guy’s Twitter Feed… Specifically designed for those who would like to see some of n21guy’s regular Tweets but have no idea what Twitter is or how to use it … ask someone under the age of 20 to explain Twitter to you if you don’t know what it is. I call this “all of the meat, none of the Tweet”.
• Multi-Lingual – Sehr gut! muy bueno! molto buono! … n21guy.com is available in 36 languages! While not perfect, you should get the meaning of n21guy’s virtual sunshine through this translation plug-in. I like to think “most people will get most of the idea most of the time” with this translation … we’ll see.
• Mobile enabled – simply visit m.n21guy.com with your mobile device to view most of the great content available in the standard desktop edition.

Like I said above, there is a lot here but this will continue to be a work in progress … thoughts or ideas on how to make this better? Let me know.

Peace out…
