I remember a year or so ago I was trawling a popular Internet marketing forum. This particular forum has some successful marketers, but mostly the members are opportunity seeking newbies, including lots of young guys who are looking to make money online quick and care little for hard work.

The Power of Purpose

I’m presently sitting in a cafe called the Gelato Bar, which apparently has been here at Bondi Beach (Sydney) since 1958. If you have ever been to Bondi it’s the cafe with all the amazing cakes in the window…

Ego Blogging and the Money Idol – Beware Who You Worship In The Blogosphere
