If you are like us, you are always looking for “stuff” to make your business life easier.  Aside from the training we provide (LOTS of Free stuff too), there is one site we came across that we “Twittered” a little bit ago but someone asked me to re-post it.

It comes from the Federal Gov’t, so it is FREE. Well, I guess our taxes pay for it: The Official Business Link to the US Government.  Don’t confuse this link with the “official IRS site” or any other.  I have no idea how long the site is up, but it is chock full of information for you if you are just starting, getting stuck or needing “official” information.  You can ask questions, engage other members in a discussion and find out what events are coming to you.

Many people have had to learn this lesson the hard way, unfortunately, after discovering that the “delete” button doesn’t really work to delete something from the internet as a whole. The embarrassing missive lives on and on, in the web service’s archives, in Google’s cache, and eventually in the Internet Archive itself.

That may be about to change, though, thanks to a new tool created by researchers at the University of Washington. Called “Vanish,” the system places a time limit on any message posted to any web service through a web browser…”

I just had to see for myself.  Check out the entire review here: Vanish post. I am interested in YOUR experiences too.

Microsoft entered the search engine fray with its introduction of Bing the other day.  The opening page talks about Live Search being taken to another level.  A review I saw last week, talked about Bing being microblogging on steroids, much like the announcement of Google’s Wave.
