Box #5, I would rather not link to my weblogs, but in this time, at the top of the webpage, are some videos by folks that I trust. It's, of course, off topic, but since I brought it up I wanted to follow up. I also set myself up for ridicule by having my own diet book: The Australopithecine Diet. In my defense, it's not really a diet but a survival imperative of a hominid that (so far) has out-lived us by many millions of years. If you're interested, this is a relevant article: >click<

ID3 Tag: I begin with instructions for my new ShowNotes system. The link: www.askcarl.net/WDSweblog.html I reviewed issue 24a by talking about the difference between brick and mortar and e-commerce; location vs foundation. I talked about the dot-com collapse and the lessons learned. I compared internet rip-offs with fad diets including a link to authorities that tell the truth. I digressed into a brief discussion of the Federal Reserve with a link and eBay with a link. I finished by offering a free MiniTutorial.

~ Show Notes ~
Podcast #24a is
online. One purpose of this show is to introduce the Websites
On A ShoeString program. I discuss a step-by-step process
for
the
design and uploading of a website especially for a home-based business.
There will
be no templates requiring outside tech support. You will be the
Webmaster and therefore the ultimate expert for your website and all on
a ShoeString. For the general idea of my tutorial philosophy check the Podcasting On
A
ShoeString program. It's available by clicking
this banner.

I made
several, but
the one that had me mumbling under my breath was when I referred to an
ISP as an ESP.

Podcast WDS Weblog DotCom February 15, 2007
I've just had the privilege of watching two people with modest computer skills build their first e-commerce website in under a week. Of course, they've only established a foundation for bigger and better things.
Needless to say, these folks are thrilled with the potential for their new skill! If you'd like to join them, click the above green banner. I have a podcast on the way in which I will discuss this ShowString process in detail.

Politicians
have
been caught numerous times lying and then covering-up such things as
going to war and environmental risks. How serious is that?
Of course, we can't trust people that lie to us. Our only protection from self-serving bureaucrats is to become as independent as possible. That means not depending on such things as pension funds, the value of the dollar, and (so called) entitlements. One approach to becoming more independent is to trust your computer and the internet as a venue for financial security.
I'd be naive to think that the internet is not fraught with lying and lairs. The web is full of rip-offs, virus hackers, spammers and the like. Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are certainly about making money more than saving the world, but I'd trust either one in a heart-beat (based on the evidence) before I'd ever trust a political bureaucrat.
One approach to financial independence is to build an e-commerce business. But it's an exercise in lunacy that the first thing many folks do is turn control of their website over to a template program, or worse, a Webmaster. Webmasters are for corporations or those wanting a vanity (or fun) website, but are the kiss-of-death for a e-commerce business.
If you want the independence of e-commerce, you must maintain 100 percent control over your website, otherwise the person that does control your website controls your e-commerce business.
I'll continue to discuss this and other topics during my podcasts. Scroll down for links to about two dozen podcasts or check the schedule boards here: >click<
