..This one has nothing to do with business … unless you’re a squirrel. Check out this video showing how tenacious a squirrel can be when there’s food at the other end. All I can say is “GO NUTS!”

We’ve been feverishly putting the final touches on a new niche social networking system for Real Estate Investors for several months now…. In that time frame, and between the mundane day-to-day tasks, there has been an amazing series of epiphany, bolt-of-lightning-like, new business concepts that have struck us…. Each revolves around mass-collaboration and taps into the relatively new trend of online social networking and social communication.

Our latest idea was SO HUGE, so monumental, so earth-shaking, it would certainly redefine the industry…. Not surprisingly, however, the challenges and hurdles that would need to be overcome, make it just a tad too easy to say “let’s just pass on this one … it’s a bit too much.”… The challenges included little things (yeah, right) like; getting a group of head-to-head competitors to tightly knit their businesses in a collaborative way … creating a new affiliate system that would take over two man-years to develop … huge technology issues revolving around security and privacy … you know, “little things”.

I was about to kill the idea …€” until I read Seth’s blog post this morning, “Always easier to just say, ’stop’.”… … Sometimes I think the guy is a mind reader…. Spooooooooky…. … (Thanks again Seth)

In December 2006 I spent several weeks leading up to the New Year, in collaboration with Allen Voivod at Epiphanies, prepping a guide called Go Nuts in 2007! I was thinking about how to make another big splash this year by putting together a monster list of links to great posts and articles I’ve read throughout the year. The idea would be to save you tons of time and energy researching stuff and coming up to speed on the new ideas that have hit the Internet Marketing scene in the past 12 months.

Well, it looks like I was beaten to the punch by Tamar Weinberg in her post Best Internet Marketing Blog Posts of 2007. Not only is this a fabulous list, it only includes a couple of the posts I would have included on mine. Soooo, instead of writing my own article (which I still might get around to), I’m going to spend the next week-ish wading through Tamar’s excellent post. I recommend you do the same. THANKS TAMAR!
