    about 2 1/2 mins into the movie it stops, or is it just my computer?

  2. Adele Sweeney Says:

    You know what Ed, I like your videos because they show YOU, not some edited smart-guy Guru in a suit!

    It’s important to me, and no doubt others, to see you’re a real down to earth guy; helps breed credibility and your vids are entertaining on their own! Plus, haven’t listened to Led Zeppelin in years!!!

  3. Matt Longley Says:

    Great video Ed, but I hope you play better than you sing… Don’t give up your day job! =P

    Curse you Ed Dale, Chordbook.com just ate up my morning. :-)

  5. Larry Bower Says:

    I registered at Stumble Upon and it didn’t ask for a password, but now to sign in
    they require a password. In the tool bar, I have Start Stumbling or sign in, but
    it doesn’t give me the other icons for the StumbleUpon tool bar. Not sure what
    to do. Thanks for the help.

    Thanks, I got it. Yes, we are newbies!!!

  7. Jeff from New Jersey Says:

    Only used Stumble Upon twice, but the first time I found a GREAT music sampler!
    Love it!

  8. Mike Carlson Says:

    Wow Ed is brutal, giving a thumbs down to that windows site! Darn mac guys.

    Thanks for killing my day with the chord site and that awesome bluesman!

    Good stuff Ed.

  9. Bert Grimm Says:

    This is the most amazing tool ever! Wait until you get to Guitar Player TV. That’ll change your playing.

    Awesome stuff Ed!!!

  10. Jeff Miles Says:

    What a great video Ed! If this is any indication of the quality of education we are going to receive, this is worth thousand upon thousands of dollars. I’m saving ALL in Itunes for future reference.

  11. Steve Dorrington Says:

    Ed - I think you are evil*.

    I have just spent a whole night Stumbling. So many superb sites.

    *Not really evil just a super way of procrastinating!

  12. Arnie Jacobsen Says:

    Oh Ed! This is all I need! I can’t stay focused on one thing as it is.
    And heck, even if I wasn’t interested in Internet Marketing, I glad I came across the challenge and you. Anybody who is a Keb Mo fan is alright in my book.

    Lord, why did I hit the Stumble button? I just found the FineTune site. You type in an artist name, and it creates a station based on your artist & related artists. [I picked Jill Scott - google her, if you don't know who she is.] Now I’m jamming to neosoul & loving it. This is going to be an excellent challenge!

    But is it true that Stumbleupon can get my Adsense account banned? It was written here:

    StumbleUpon can get your Adsense account banned

  15. Jack Dillon Says:

    Ed, as it is, I belong to procrastinators anonymous. Now you want to introduce me to stumbleupon? Ed, I need someone to help get me from A to B. Is that you and the 30 day challenge? Hope so. I’m in!

  16. Tony Thackray Says:

    I can’t receive the Quicktime videos. I’m using Quicktime Pro 6.5.3 with a MAC G4 (450MHz) and OS X 10.2.8.
    The Training videos just appear to stop (eventually) with no messages except a picture of a broken film frame with a Q in the center, so maybe they are timing out. When I download the Quicktime from the Pre-season content (True Coolness of Stumbleupon - Part 1) it gives a message that I am missing some software that isn’t on the Quicktime site!!
    Are you using a later version that includes some software not available on the older version?
    Should I be doing something to set-up for this?
    I am just trying to catch-up at present, but this looks great. I hope I can start getting the videos.
    Keep up the good work. Tony

  17. Patty Gaynor Says:

    Can’t seem to get this one to work

  18. Sleeping Dude Says:

    Guys know what they’re talking about. StumbleUpon is my number 1 traffic source for quite a while.

    It’s great to see online challenges like these - keep it up!
