Great News! I was adding up my online earnings from my online projects. Mind you, I have only two money making projects on the net since December 2008 when the "big recession" came down.

I made one site to sell a stress relief ebook, and the other is selling offline services like SEO, business blog making, and email marketing.

Now that I am in a good mood (which is all the time!), I thought I would write more about my take on the WF here.

Seems like there continues to be great discussions on productive topics and issues lately. I give kudos to all the forum members this month. As we all know, there is always "smart-butts" that ruin it for everyone once they "spam and slam" our community members.
