   I find that AntiRSI not only prevents me from developing RSI, it also keeps me focused by making me take breaks: http://download.cnet.com/AntiRSI/3000-18487_4-85044.html

   I'm thinking about getting this just for the TypeKit sub, but I don't/haven't used the others.

   Making revenue projections is useful when you have something concrete to work with, but otherwise it gets in the way of actually making money. The most important part is collecting your first few bucks. Something clicks the first time you g

   Depending on where you live, there may be a Jelly: http://workatjelly.com which is a bunch of work-from-home-ers who get together to cowork in coffee shops. I live in Chicago, and ours is the best Jelly . Beyond words awesome. We meet tw

   There are two types of ambitious people: 1. Those who suck up to those who can help them out (superiors), even if they have nothing in common with them. 2. Those who work and collaborate with their friends. No matter how much less it pays t

    Yeah, wouldn't say they penalize , but since your site actually is at the URL of redyellowblue.com, and there are other sites (probably with some authority) linking to it, it doesn't surprise me that it would rank highly. Additionally, I d

    Yes, Google supposedly indexes some Flash content, but the potential complexity of a Flash movie is limitless, so they can't possibly index all of it.

    Google had hinted before this year that they would use speed. This article is from December, but perhaps there's something earlier: http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2009/11/13/google-page-spe... Still, Google said it will only affect 1%

    Agreed. There is some really shitty content that gets ranked highly on Google. We still need a better search engine.

    Using the expiration date to determine domain legitimacy is in one of Google's patents: http://www.searchengineguide.com/bill-hartzer/does-the-lengt... I've updated the post with a link to that article. Thanks for the inquiry.

    Yeah, dude - get direct advertisers and you can probably bump that up to $3k/mo.

    Step 1: send a message. "Hi, I operate ThatHigh.com, which gets 720k pageviews a month. I saw that you advertise on HighTimes.com and thought my audience would also love your product. I'm currently looking for an advertiser for the 728x60 l

    I bet you could squeeze $10k a month out of that. "Hi, I can give you 720,000 impressions/mo to weed smokers, would you like to advertise?"

    Wow, that's interesting. I guess I would start by just trying to have a conversation with them on Twitter or something. A retweet from Snoop would be great! Or, you could create a little badge on your site for social proof. "We're followed

    I'm having trouble thinking of what offers on CJ would be right for this. There are Marijuana delivery services in SF, right? You could sign them up and serve ads locally using Google Ad Manager. What about HighTimes.com? Maybe they would a

    Well, when I lived in Nebraska, there was a startup that discovered me (one of the founders met a guy from the company where I worked at a restaurant). I had them as a client and then they hired me and moved me. Having the blog with online

    I love it when this happens. I've had a similar experience with blogging and owe everything to it. It moved me from Nebraska to California, has won me big clients, and even provides significant passive revenue.

    Haha - very interesting sounding game! Too bad that sponsorship fell through - that sounds like it really could have worked. You could have contacted more casinos and started a bidding war!
