Copy Paste problem on Blogger Solved
Being a newbie to Blogger, I was unable to cut and paste while creating a new post for my blog. I was further stumped when from a friends computer, she was able to cut and paste onto on my blog from her computer. I knew then that it must be something in my settings. After some trial and error I pulled up "create new post" and to the right of the "Title bar" I clicked on "Edit HTML" which was highlighted in white. As soon as I clicked the box the color changed to tan. I was then able to copy and paste with no problem.

99 of the Best Travel Blogs
Travel blogs are a dime a dozen these days. But finding the good ones, that’s the challenge. You know, the ones that inspire you with a burning desire to dust off your old suitcase, stuff it with some clothes and gadgets, and buy an open-ended ticket to somewhere far far away.
Those are the kinds of blogs we feature on TravelBlogs. And we’ve uncovered plenty of gems over the past few years. As TravelBlogs is about to feature its 100th blog, I thought it would be an appropriate time to stop and heap praise upon the 99 excellent travel blogs already featured.

The Perfect Storm Top 3 drivers of the new entrepreneurial revolution
The top 3 drivers of the new entrepreneurial revolution are, first the economy, second the shift to online shopping and third the environmental movement. Let us take a look at them:
The Economy
Due to the economy more people are looking for ways to save and or supplement their incomes. Here is an interesting article from USA Today - USA Today Reports Direct Sales Place to Be http://tinyurl.com/nnnyzs. This is a great way to earn extra income in your spare time, and there are many direct sales companies to choose from. I have tried a few of them myself such as MaryKay and Shaklee. Now, these are great companies with nationally recognized brand identification, but I have found them lacking in 3 important areas:
1. Product diversification is limited to one area of business such as only beauty, nutrition etc.
2. Expense of having to purchase and store inventory for sale (what to do with discontinued products?)
3. Expense of sales materials such as samples (and sample cases), product catalogs (usually seasonal and always for new product lines). These expenses are recurring.
Online Shopping
Who would have thought just a few years ago that the popularity of online shopping would explode as it has. But today's consumer is very time conscious and cost conscious. A few benefits of Online Shopping are:
1. Shop whenever you want for whatever you want 24 hours a day from the comfort of your home. No more running around from store to store.
2. Online shopping saves money. Retailers offer great discounts for shopping online. You can almost always find a deal with free shipping, and depending on your State you save by not paying Sales Tax.
3. Save money on gas (plus wear & tear on your auto) or save on the cost of other transportation.
The Environmental Movement
Today we have all become aware of the importance of "going green". A few ways we can help save our planet are:
1. Saving energy - cut down on driving, buy energy efficient products, turn off lights, plant trees to help shade your home & clean the air. (note these will also save money in the long run)
2. Change to using non toxic products such as cleansers, detergents, personal care products, pesticides, organic fertilizers to name a few.
3. Purchase "natural products" instead of synthetics in home design, personal care, clothing, pet products etc.
You may by now be wondering why I titled this blog The perfect Storm. Because of the 3 main drivers discussed above, a new and innovative business model has taken the Direct Sales, MLM and Affiliate market by storm. It combines the best of all three by giving you the opportunity to own an Internet business that pays us up to 30% Cash Back to shop online from all the retailers that we already shop from (over 850 & growing) and lets us do our part to help make our world a better place environmentally by buying products from green conscious companies (soon to be over 300 & growing). Think of it.. you can Save money shopping online, from all the retailers you already shop from, help the environment shopping from green conscious companies and Earn Cash back.
Presenting ....... ShoptoEarn and ShoptoEarth.
This is unlike anything you have ever seen before. It truly is an "Idea whose time has come".
Our associates do not purchase any inventory to sell, there are no products to store, no catalogs to mail, and product diversification is amazing ......everything from A to Z.
