More Life After About

Wow, I've got a great day going. First, I woke up refreshed after a good night's sleep! That's a miracle in itself... but what really made me happy was an email from Mike Killian. He used to be the Credit/Debt Guide at About, but he just up and disappeared on us awhile back.

He has a web site called Learning Credit and Debt Management and some of his best content is there. One, called "Credit Cards- They're Just Like Drugs" is worth a read even if you don't have a credit card.

I was happy to "meet up" with him again. More proof that there really is life after About.

Something Really, Really BIG

If you've surfed around the frugal side of the internet very long, you know of the Dollar Stretcher site. When I was a Guide for About, Dollar Stretcher was considered my "competition."

Now, I don't think there's much real competition among the frugal community, but that's a discussion for another day.

So... if it really was my competition, I'm a traitor.

But I'm not, because all that time, I found inspiration there as well as common sense articles from Gary Foreman and many, many frugalistas around the internet. I don't know how many times I found awesome sites through there that were buried in search engine results.

After saying all of that, this is not about lauding Dollar Stretcher, although I'd gladly do that, but it's about me.

Yep. I'm going there to do something. Something BIG.. ;)

Really.

Can't tell you yet, but watch this space. Or, as they say on TV (do they still say it?) Stay tuned.
