Thanks for the great links. I no longer use Google to find great content, but rather refer to bloggers and sources I trust. Maybe your Teaching Sells Report is on the money for where the internet is heading.
Thanks for the link. Glad you found my post useful!

Thanks for the links. I checked out spidersecret.com’s rant about what the value of free is, and I guess I agree with him. Anyway, you listed some sites here that are worth checking out. thanks
thanks for the link. Still learning and find all your insight useful.
Yes, they are all definitely useful links. However, I found Skellie’s “Freelance Switch” the best. Dunno, probably I’m biased, or probably I follow her posts very regularly.
Anyways, thanks a lot for sharing the resources.
I’m glad I found writetodone blog. It’s really useful. Thank you

Great links, Brian. As for Twitter, I do recommend it. If nothing else, you’ll hear about breaking news faster than anywhere else.
Brian,
That link on finding people to interview is an absolute gold mine. That one page alone can help someone create a thriving info-marketing/publishing business from scratch.
You just saved me a whole bunch of time on a project I’m helping someone with now.
