New Travel Document Requirements are Coming

I don't know about all of you, but I am always traveling for business. A friend of mine just sent me an email reminding me about the changes to the travel documentation requirements that are going into effect at the beginning of the year.

Here are the basics and then I'll give you a link to where I found this information...

"Beginning January 23, 2007, ALL persons, including U.S. citizens, traveling by air between the United States and Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean, and Bermuda will be required to present a valid passport, Air NEXUS card, or U.S. Coast Guard Merchant Mariner Document, or an Alien Registration Card, Form I-551, if applicable."

Finally Listing on Technorati

Fo those of you who aren't too familiar with blogs, you should check out Technorati. This website is a directory and search engine specifically for blogs. It is a great way to search for specific content or for blogs that focus on specific niche markets.

Make sure that when you do write you blog, you create a free account on Technorati and "Claim Your Blog", this is the only way that Technorati will come out and look at your blog. With so many blogs joining the blogosphere every day, there is no way for them to fine them all. So once you setup your account, and go to claim your blog, they will give you a piece of html code that you put into a blog entry like this one and then tell them you are ready and they will come out and verify that you have put the proper code on the blog and then start to list you.

It is also important to periodically (especially in the beginning) to go back to Technorati and tell them to "Ping" you blog. This is how they know that you have updated your content and that they should come back and look at your blog. Once you have a consistent track record and more people are linking to your blog, then it will eventually happen automatically, but until then, you need to give them a little help.

Here is the link to my Technorati Profile which contains links to all of my blogs that are on Technorati.

Fuel Freedom International

I've just found out about this amazing Business Opportunity that I am adding to my business. This is going to be a great additional stream of income for me.

Take a minute to look over the information at GainFuelFreedom.com, this is a great business for anyone who is looking to make some substantial additional income and also make a difference in the environment.

I've been blogging some information about this business as well as the prices of fuel and also putting up some of the video clips that have been put on YouTube.com and other video sites. Check out Fuel-Freedom-International.info for this blog.

I would love to have you join me in the business and see what we can do together.

Blogging for Business Building

Blogging as a business building tool can take many forms. As you will see from reading through the blog entries that I have posted to this blog, I've been talking about different seminars, personal & business development ideas, products & services that I use, and some other things. But, I'm also blogging about these same items in a couple of other ways that are impacting my business.

Would you like to find out how? Well, first check out these other blogs:

Do you know what these different blogs, and many others have in common? It is that I am using them to promote my business. If you want to find out more about this, make sure to subscribe to the newsletter on my main website page. I am going to be sending out a white paper on this information along with a special offer that I am currently negotiating with another marketing expert in this area.
