Brett’s note: The post below was not written by me. I’m just trying out a new blogging service called Bligter. It basically gives you a chance to receive posts and put on your blog on a regular basis so you can keep the content going. I’m not sure I’m too crazy about this approach, but [...]
Some nice links I ran across over the weekend.

A quick moment of self-praise and recognition – Brett’s Blog recently crossed the 10,000th view mark. I actually have all of you to thank for that.

I’ve come across a really good blog I wanted to pass along. It’s Brian Heys Writes. I like the topics (mostly about online marketing, blogging, etc.), and the site layout is clean. It’s an easy read.
