They call it “concentration” but it’s the addictive little game I play with my son where you turn 2 cards over and try to match. Check out the computer version over at LinkTiles where our button “You Can Sell More Books” was chosen as one of the Tiles today!

LinkTiles is a catchy little site where you are able to create a “tile” (a little square) that represents whatever you want to be promoting and then it links to ALL of your web sites. If you just have one site, you may soon have more. I would have laughed had I heard that a few years ago, but I have about 12 web sites hosted and about 5 other networks like Ning and MySpace. This one is a blog, and it’s my entire site so far.

I would never tell you about something that I haven’t personally tried without telling you I’ve not tried it. Well, I’ve used DealDotCom.com and they are the real thing! You will find a deal of all kinds of software at this site, but every deal lasts just 24 hours and then it’s gone. Software that will help you with good ebook covers, blog promotional tips, SEO ideas, article marketing and much more! You never know what you will find and these guys that run this have a great sense of humor that will make you actually want to read the description!
