Things are full steam ahead over here at Revenue. We are sending the magazine to the printer today and at the same time gearing up for the Affiliate Summit show in Miami. It's going to be hot, hot, hot - literally.

We've got some fun things planned for the show. So, be sure to drop by our booth. It's lucky no. 62.

For those of you that have not yet made the full-time leap into online marketing or affiliate marketing here's an interesting piece on the pros and cons of working at home and for yourself. These are important factors to consider before making the jump.

I love to shop and very often there are specific items I'm looking for, but just as often I like shopping just for the sake of shopping.

Although I have friends that do all of their shopping online, it's just not an activity that I find all together enjoyable and it's not for lack of trying. I feel like it's bordering on blasphemy in this industry to admit this aloud.

On yesterday's Affiliate Thing podcast my co-host Shawn Collins and I talked about all the new podcasts that debuted this week. There's The Jeff and Sam Talk about Marketing, Tech, TeH Internets and Other Stuff (Beta) Show (with Sam Harrelson and Jeff Doak) as well as Video Ninjas (with Jim Kukral and Steve Rosenthal). Very exciting stuff.

I'm cleaning, organizing, emptying out the inbox, dealing with things that I've put off for weeks. So, today is the day that I put everything out on the virtual blog curb and hope someone picks it up...
