One of the things all self-employed, work-from-home Internet entrepreneurs have to do at least once in a while is advertise. I don’t spend money on advertising very often, because I hate spending money, but occasionally I see an opportunity that is worthwhile.
Obviously, getting a good return on your advertising investment is something everyone wants to achieve. Once in a blue moon, however, I...

Yahoo! just unveiled Mash, its newest social networking space. Of course, you have to be invited to participate at the moment, as is the norm with these Web 2.0 beta things. Once you have a Mash profile, it appears that you then can invite unlimited amounts of people. I might be wrong on that, but I don’t see any limits, anyway. So, I’ll be happy to give invites to anyone and everyone who...

Planning is a wonderful thing…until it’s not. Sometimes, good decisions turn out to be nothing more than lucky decisions. We can plan and plan and plan, and if we’re lucky, those plans bear fruit. Nevertheless, the very best plans sometimes don’t work out quite like we thought they would.

This morning, as I was on my Internet travels, floating from one new blog to another, I found myself on a blog written by a man who lives not far from me. It’s always interesting to discover a neighbor in this vast ‘net world, so I stopped long enough to read a bit of what he had written.
