Fix your nook's frozen screen with these helpful tips

If you think your screen on nook may be frozen, you may want to try these steps to reboot your nook:

First, try holding the power down for 10-15 seconds, and then pressing the power button again. If that doesn't reboot your Nook, try:

1. Unplugging the nook.
2. Remove the battery (if you don't know how, there are further instructions in the manual).
3. Plug the nook in, without the battery.

The Nook should begin to go through its booting process. Once booted, replace the battery (don't turn the nook off or unplug).

If these steps don't work, you may have to call our digital support team in customer service. They can be reached at 1-800-THE-BOOK (1-800-843-2665).

It's really interesting how plugging in your nook to an AC adapter after removing its battery can fix a lot of the screen freezing issues some users are having.

Moved over to Posterous

Recently, I've moved this blog from Wordpress to Posterous. I like its simplicity which adds the main focus to the content and not to the presentation.

The comments haven't moved over from Wordpress, but I contacted Posterous and requested them to add this feature soon.

Some new features on the user end that have been added thanks to Posterous:

  • Facebook commenting
  • A much more efficient and faster loading site
  • Video, audio, and photo galleries
  • Instant iTunes podcast support for videos
Thanks Posterous and I hope you don't disappoint me.
