Open your mind (Part 2)

07.30.2008 by Bob 7 comments

Getting out of Debt Part 2…I have found that when I am challenged by something, I either open my mind to the possibility of it or I don’t. If I do open my mind to it, then I have to count the cost to decide if I want to do it. If so, the last and often easiest step is to just do it.

Scour review | The search engine that pays

07.25.2008 by Bob 11 comments

Scour is a search engine that has two distinct advantages over Google…The results are voted on by other users. So, in theory, only the best stuff should come up to the top of the list. Just like Digg.They offer incentives for using it. You earn points for searching with it, commenting, voting, referring, etc. Those points can then be redeemed for gift cards. Looking at the points system, it will take quite a while before you ever get enough points for a gift card. That’s okay I am more interested in it’s search capabilities.

The most important Organic fruits to buy

07.22.2008 by Bob 8 comments

One of things I have learned since I began my organic journey was that you have to follow the 80/20 rule with it. The basics of the 80/20 rule is that 80% of the impact is made by 20% of the actions.
