Everyday Baby Steps

I am so happy to announce to you all that I will now be doing product reviews on my Tuesday's Tip feature.  I've always enjoyed reading the reviews I've seen around the blogosphere and decided it looked like something I would enjoy and that would bring something new to my blog.  Not to mention the fact that often times the reviews come with the chance for you to win something - like last week's prize pack from Yoplait Kids. Look for upcoming reviews for toys, food, and other cool products in upcoming posts.

Take a look at what came in the mail this past weekend for me to review!

It's the Epson Workforce 600 All-In-One printer! So far, I think it's amazing.  It was easy to install, even for a technophobe such as myself.  Here are the features:

• 5 in 1 with WiFi: Print / Copy / Scan / Photo / Fax
• Draft speeds up to 38 ppm (black and color)¹
• Laser quality documents about 2x faster¹
• Wi-Fi and Ethernet networking built in
• Extra High-capacity Black ink
• 2-year limited warranty with registration
• Smudge, fade, water resistant, highlighter friendly
• Uses up to 3x less power than a laser printer¹
• Fax and 30-page ADF
• Built-in memory card slots and 2.5-inch LCD

It looks so cool.  I'll play with it this week and come back next Tuesday with a full review and examples of the fun projects I do with it.  What do you think?

Just a note to other newbie bloggers like me.  If you're interested in doing product reviews or would like to take advantage of any other opportunity you see, don't be afraid to put yourself out there and just ask. There are lots of helpful folks on Twitter and in online communities who will answer your questions and who are happy to work with you.  That's how I got the opportunity to review this incredible printer - I just asked!  Thank you to Barbara Jones at One2One Network for encouraging me and for allowing me this opportunity!
