Gabcast! Learn Small Business #5 – LinkedIn Bloggers Blog Boost 17

Critique of a linkedin bloggers blog

I’ve decided to host this blog on my own website.  This one will still live on for archival purposes and to let you know if I have any problems with my website.  The new location for the blog is www.learnsmallbusiness.com/blog

I look forward to seeing you at the new blog.

My apologies to the LinkedIn Bloggers Group for my late post.  I'm in the middle of a move, so things are kind of hectic for me right now.  The Blog for this week is Des Walsh's Thinking Home Business.  It's a great blog for entrepreneurs as well as anyone that wants to learn more about blogging.  This is another example of a wonderful blog.  It has a clear title and an about me page that explains exactly what the blog is about.  Great job Des!

This week's blog boost goes to ELSUA~ A KM Blog. Overall the blog is very informative.  The about me page explains what the blog is about.  You guys know that I'm a stickler for that kind of stuff.  The only thing that I would change would be to have a more descriptive title.  If it weren't for the explanation given on the LinkedIn Bloggers Yahoo Group, I wouldn't have known what the blog was about.  Also, I couldn't figure out how to leave a comment.  Maybe he doesn't want any?  Well no problem.  I was just trying to comply with the request that we leave comments.  Of course it could have been because I was too impatient to wait for the comment screen to load.  All in all Luis has done a great job here.  Keep up the good work.

I tried out editgrid, an online spreadsheet located at http://www.editgrid.com and here are my thoughts about it:

I like the fact that it's free.  It's good for people who have just gotten a computer and maybe can't afford to buy software just yet.   I also like the fact that it's online.  This helps you have somewhere to keep your files.  You know that no matter what may happen to your computer, you have somewhere for your data.  I also like the fact that it works across all formats.  So mac users and pc users can both use this application.  The only thing that I didn't like was that there wasn't a way to freeze the rows and columns when you're entering data.  Other than that, this is a pretty nifty tool to have.
