Have you ever wished there was a way you could print the webpage you were looking at to PDF?

(Okay, not this page. There’s a PDF of this post at the bottom of the page.)

If you’ve signed up for an Adobe account, you probably have the print to PDF option, which is really neat – unless you’re on Windows 7. Suddenly that printer is sometimes-y – lately I can’t get it to work at all. And the help forums just says they’re working on a solution.

But even if you have that working on your desktop, this tool is also great for when you’re reading blogs or news on your cell.

Let’s say you see a great article on your mobile phone and aren’t anywhere near a computer. If only you could save it into Google Documents to read later. Well, this tool has that option too, after you’ve clicked the link to create a download.

I mean, I love Read it Later and Instapaper as much as the next person. But I also know myself. And if I’m reading something I want to reference repeatedly, I’ve got to print it to PDF.

Anyway. I found a free tool for this that you don’t even have to sign up to use.

You’ll find it here:

[Update: Just found out that there's a paid version with even more features. I've been using the free version for three months with no issues though.]

Don’t forget to tune in tomorrow, we’re having a Google day full of free tips, tricks, and maybe even video.

27,000 visitors from StumbleUpon in one week is my personal high score for generating social media traffic. 40k is my overall best in one day.

But if you ever look at my SU profile, by all outward appearances, I’m a pretty average user.

I don’t have 1000 subscribers, like Andy Beard, who can rock my server with one stumble.

And my both my Stumbling record and number of reviews certainly pale in comparison to someone like Zaibatsu.

And yet. Whether you’re talking social media or online news site, online reputation management or offline social networks, I seem to have a knack for knowing where all the pressure points are, and where to apply – or relax – force, to get the coverage that I want, and to pass that on to my customers and clients.

You can’t buy social media traffic, with the exception of Stumble Ads and Facebook Ads, which really aren’t the same as what I’d call social media traffic – even under those circumstances, it’s just not the same.

It’s the same way you can’t buy good vibes. Either you can get them, or you can’t. You can’t pay someone to genuinely feel good about your products, services, and customer support. Though I’m sure in this economy, lots of people would fake it really well if you offered them the right price.

As I get closer to retiring, I’ve wondered- and studied, what it is that I’m doing differently , more and more frequently. What  am I dong in half an hour on StumbleUpon that has the same effect as what some others do in 40 hours?

As it began to dawn on me, I started to take notes. This excerpt is from a PDF guide I wrote about what I have logically concluded, and repeatedly tested, to be the Secret to my Success in drawing social media traffic and generating massive traffic in general. [download it | pdf].

For the next 24 hours, I’m not going to ask for your email address or anything else in order for you to read it. After the opening day sale is over, there’s no more free peeks – you’ll have to give somethin to get somethin. wink wink.

Have a Happy Weekend. If you’re in the DC metro area, remember to stop by Faith Gifts and Stationery in Laurel Mall across from the Macy’s to visit me between 11 am and 2 pm. You can corner me and ask me questions about your web site.

What is the Value of Facebook for Business?
ebook excerpt [pdf] 288 kb

No, it’s not a new place to spread borderline spam links, but it can help increase both your business ties and audience. Hint: Think more about what can come from Facebook and what to do there, than what goes into Facebook.

There’s a free download on the page with more details.
