Show notes:

Backup and Save–Don’t do as I say, do as I do. Save your work regularly and whatever you do, backup your files and store the backup media away in a location away from your computer. Mine Your Own Business is the Tacony Corporation blog.

MyMoney.gov
Here’s something free from your favorite uncle, Uncle Sam. Good consumer advice available by mail or download.

Keith Burtis’ Magic Woodworks
Keith used the power of social media to sell out of his hand turned wooden bowls and earn enough money to pay off his fiancee’s engagement ring, just in time to pop the question at Podcamp Toronto.

Joseph Jaffee is a social media guru, and author of Join the Conversation.

Kappy’s Department Store–My first job (at age 14) introduced me to the best retailer I’ve ever known. And he didn’t even own a computer. Social media tools are just that—tools. Don’t let the tool get in the way of the conversation.
