Sharing Resources – Alltop, Triiibes, Twitter, what do you use?
The web is a vast, ever changing entity that is difficult to keep up with. It would be foolish of me or anyone else to think they are keeping abreast of the life force that creates it. It baffles me to think of all the tools and resources available to me and others that we don’t even know about.
The cream always rises to the top and eventually you would find out about face book, twitter, Digg, craigslist, just from the sheer amount of users and buzz. Google does this with search, anything you want to know about. Google it!
Here’s the question; how do you find it, if you don’t know that you should be looking for it?
There must be tools that others are using that could help you, or others that you know. The key is:
- Getting the information to them
- Showing them the value
- Having someone act upon it
Doing two out of the three doesn’t work. It’s got to be all the way or nothing.
I started this blog to meet like minded people and share. Share things that I found interesting, cool, funny, and things that could help people. I now have people I consider friends half way around the world that I have never met in person. I have a rule that I use, share without regret. Don’t worry about the people that laugh, ridicule and put down the things that you share.
I challenged myself to write this blog, in order to share those things with the world that I found useful. Somewhere out there is something that I probably never knew I needed or could help me. It’s that thought that keeps me reading, looking, writing and my mind inquisitive each and every day.
So, without further ado, here are some of my most precious resources.

If I can share something that makes your life, job or business better, I will consider that the best news of the day. If more of us do it, it will become common place and those that are struggling to do real work will be able to do it better, cheaper and faster. Please share with me your favorite resources; I’m always prowling for new leads! Leave me a comment below.
