Free Marketing for Published Authors
I was cruising around Writer’s Net late last night, a forum that I used to spend far too much time on, and found this thread asking to interview published authors.
I was pleasantly surprised to find when I clicked on the link of the blog where the interviews are held that it is a very professional blog and the interviews are in-depth, informative and educational for writers.
Be sure to check this out even if you aren’t published yet. There are so many things you can learn about the process to keep you from making mistakes when it comes to marketing once you do get published. And if you are published, you’d do well to be interviewed on this blog. Free advertising too!
Computer and Web Based Training Tools
Listen up, employers! There is now a way that your employees can take CBT eLearning courses online through a company called Resource Bridge. Resource Bridge provides customized computer based training (CBT) and web based training courses. These programs are specifically designed to allow employees to take training courses online and on their own. That leaves managers/supervisors free to work while their employees receive complete training.
With a program like this think how much you will save on productivity cost? It boggles the mind.
How is Everyone’s Blogging Muscles?
It is seldom that I ask how YOUR blogging is going. So I decided that today was the day I would do just that.
What’s up with you and your blog/blogs? Are you happy? Are you making enough money?
Spill, baby, spill.
I’d Love to Visit New York!
One of the US cities that I have always wanted to visit is New York. I can see myself hanging out on Broadway or in Greenwich Village.

You will see the city the way it was meant to be seen, from an insider who knows every nook and cranny.

Jobs Galore
I don’t know if it’s my imagination but are you finding that there are a lot more jobs available at places like Freelance Writing Jobs and Problogger? I have been applying for jobs all day, probably sent off 7 emails, and I feel pretty good about my chances for one or two.
It’s time to find a REAL job.
A Card to Remember
With the great technology we have today it is wonderful to know that if you want to send a VERY personalized card to a friend or loved one you can make it totally unique by turning pictures that is precious to you and to your friend or loved one into Photo Cards. Just imagine how happy your family would be to receive a personalized christmas card like the one below! Nothing says love like pictures and that one is worth a thousand words. When I saw it the first thing I thought of was that it would be great to send to a dad fighting in Iraq. To have a card with that picture of his cherished family would make all the difference in a lonely and a happy Christmas. Well, as happy as a soldier who is away from his family on Christmas COULD be.
Check out the link above and you will see so many ideas for custom photo cards, or come up with your very own original idea.

Who Just Called Here?
Doesn’t it drive you crazy when someone calls you on the phone then instantly hangs up? Or what about harassing phone calls? You think to yourself “Who Called Me?”
There are several ways you can remedy this problem. One is adding your number to a No Call List. The other is to sign up for a reverse phone lookup service.
From now on you CAN know who called you and set your mind at ease or not even receive those calls.
