At the weekend I received an email from Maki saying that he had added me to the “Z-List”. At first I was a bit confused – was this a meme targeted at those who had the crappest blogs and who were the most awful writers in the blogosphere? I jogged onto Dosh Dosh to have […]
Continue readingWell after nearly a month of running time (which is quite ridiculous actually), I’ve closed the votes for the most recent poll which was entitled, “What’s your best online entrepreneurial skill?”.

Continue readingFinally, after many comments from really helpful site visitors and emailing to and fro things have fallen into place. Thanks to a tip from ‘FrankB’ who told me to use Whois information to contact TheMoneyBlogs I was able to get a response from JP who commented on the RSS Scraping post: “Hi Guys- This is […]
