HubMob Weekly Topic: Do it-yourselfers, How-Toers and Step-by-Steppers
First of all, I have officially made it to the Las Vegas airport to head back to good ol' HubPages HQ after a crazy week in Las Vegas. I haven't really gotten any sleep today, so I apologize for any bad grammar, misspellings and what not. That's my disclaimer for the day.
So, after last week's overly amazing HubMob that we had , I wanted to keep the Mob'n up and running with some fun stuff that many of us Hubbers would really enjoy writing and reading about. We had almost 50 Hubs entered into last week's HubMobbing madness, which is sooooo awesome. Thanks to everyone who joined in on the fun! Below is proof of the awesoeness that is the HubMob!
This week's topic is going to be a little different and a is a pretty wide open topic that everyone should be able to figure out something to write about and contribute to.
This week's HubMob Topic is simply: Do it-yourselfers, How-Toers and Step-by-Steppers: Teach us something, Hubbers!. I created this week's HubMob topic because pretty much everyone can do one or two things really well and I'm super curious to see the exactly what those couple of things are. Feel free write about anything that's related to this topic, such as awesome recipes, carving a pumpkin, how to create a blog or even how to make a perfect peanut butter and jelly sandwich.. As always, have a lot of fun with this and I'll see you soon!
To join this week's HubMob, please follow the steps below:
1. Come up with an amazing idea to write your Hub on that has something to do with the topic of creating an informative and interesting How-To, Step-By-Step or Do-It-Yourself that teaches the rest of us Hubbers and the rest of the world about something that you're a self-described expert on(or at least you think you are ). Make the topic your own and feel free to have fun with it, research it or wing it. It's up to you on how you write your HubMob Hub.
2. After you come up with your topic idea, click this link and answer the Request that I entered in for all of you HubMobsters. Feel free to use the tags that I suggested or add a few of your own.
3. Write a an awesomely comprehensive Hub that completely covers your topic idea. Be sure to add an RSS Capsule that includes the RSS feed to the rest of this week's HubMob entries (Link: http://hubpages.com/request/7213/best?rss) and also add one of the HubMob images below to your Hub so that everyone who reads it will know that it is part of the official HubMob topic of the week.
4. After you publish your HubMob Hub, reply in this Forum thread with a brief description of what topic idea you wrote about, why you chose it and a link to your newly published contribution to the HubMob. I mean, we all want to see, too!
5. Keep track of your Hub and keep us updated on any traffic that you're getting and post some screenshots if you end up HubMobbing a few search keyword over on Google.haha, yeah, I was nodding off mid-Forum post while sitting in the airport at 4:30am.
Not pretty...not pretty at all.
But, I slept an hour on the plane ride back and I'm feeling pretty good..for now.
I am for it this week, I didn't manage last week's hubmob, my little hooligan broke an arm.
Now I'll try to find something I'm good at to write my How to ...Ummm...how about how to deal with your child's broken arm?
Sorry, the effects from the all-nighter in Las Vegas has bigger implications than I first thought I guess...sorry about that. Here's the good RSS link:
http://hubpages.com/request/7213/best?rss
There are some great HubMobster Hubs already posted - keep 'em coming!
This is going to be fun. I love writing "How to" articles! Can't wait to read what everyone comes up with
I'm with Whitney-can we do more than one??Ryan said at the beginning of HubMob we can answer the request more than once. I made two hubs to answer last week's request, so I am sure it would be fine this week too, unless Ryan say differently
.
My hubmobbing contribution:
Cool Ways To Heat Your House:
How To Save Money On Your Home Fuel Heating Costs
http://hubpages.com/hub/Cool-Ways-To-He … Costs?doneGreat Hub, but luckily one that I don't need to pay much attention to now that I live out in California.
Geico?
Whoa...this calls for a HubPages Happy hour!
Soooo...are you saying that I shouldn't wear my flip-flops?
How to freeze tomatoes straight out of the garden or produce section of your grocery store without processing them.
Step #1 > Obtain a tomato.
Step #2 > Rinse the tomato, clean off any debris or dust.
Step #3 > Cut out the navel (optional)
Step #4 > Place the tomato/es in a freezer safe storage bag.
Step #5 > Place the tomato/es in a freezer.
Step #6 > When you are ready to cook the tomato/es just simply let it thaw. The peeling will fall right off and there you go; it's ready to stew.
Wwell my contribution is How to make a beef pie, The entire pie from the making of the filling, to making pastry and finally baking. I have even given serving suggestions.

Who else is in? I'm still trying to decide what to write mine on this week...probably something nerdy and tech-related.
Hey Lady Guinevere,
Be sure to answer this Request when joining the HubMob:
http://hubpages.com/request/7213/best
That way, we have all of the HubMobsters all on one place.
Hey Patty,
I guess that it's true that I learn something new everyday...healing with honey, wow.
Also, remember to add one of the HubMob banners and the RSS Capsule of the other HubMob Hubs, too. That way each of the HubMobs reference each other.
Here is the RSS feed you need to use: http://hubpages.com/request/7213/best?rss
And here are the banners:
Thanks, Patty!
Excellent hub
You might want to correct the typo in the second paragraph, "tatse"
Here's mine:
Human Tetris: How to Create a Winning Team
Going with humor this time, which is always tough. Let me know how I did.
Human Tetris is this hilariously funny game started in Japan. Many of you have probably seen the videos on YouTube, but if you haven't, definitely check it out in the hub. It was so funny when I first saw it that I laughed till I cried.
In keeping with the spirit of this week's hubpages, I figured I would contribute something I'm rather good at doing...
http://hubpages.com/hub/How-To-Call-In-Sick-To-Work
Should I turn on the news tomorrow morning and discover an outbreak of tummy aches and non-specific flu-like symptoms that prevent a record number of people from going to work...I'll be honored.
Enjoy!- SirDentposted 16 years ago0
Here is my article for this week's HubMob. I hope you enjoy it. If not then

I have to pass on this one.
Notonly are DIY and I a terrible combination, but I also simply lack the time. Ok I've got the rss feed part
But now I have other problem. I added http://hubpages.com/request/7213/best?rss just as you stated Ryan, and hubs do appear when I click on the "Preview Feed" button, but when I complete the editing it shows a message saying the feed is not valid.
Am I doing something wrong?
Great advice, SirDent....I couldn't have said it better myself. I appreciate you helping out!
You are always very helpful sirdent. I am planning another how-to hub myself. I know mine are all crafty and girly, but I love writing on these topics
. We need more crafty how-to's everyone, so I am encouraging all the Hubbers into crafting to get out there and write about arts and crafts .
Thanks Sir Dent.
I have saved and didn't touch the No display option...
It's really strange. As I said before when I do preview inside the capsule i see all ok, when i finish the edit my published page appears with the rss feed not valid line.
I've just put the photo, oh wellLOL... It's all ok now... i was copying the link with a blank space before the http...
no wonder it wouldn't work
i'm such a dumbass sometimes ^.^'Hey profiler, Rochelle is right. I mean, one time I put my underwear on backwards and I didn't notice until lunch and at that point it was too late to do anything about it. I mean, backwards underwear - now who's the dumbass?
Live and learn....live and learn.
