That’s why we didn’t launch an RSS reader or blog search engine, and that’s why we told everyone who wanted to do “business development” that there were only three ways to work with us: 1. read our blogs, 2. write our blogs, or 3. support our blogs with advertising.
This is excellent. It’s so easy to fall into the trap of chasing any potential source of revenue that comes your way and might be important, or the tons of well-meaning (or not so well-meaning) offers of partnerships that come your way when you have a business. Focus can be hard, because it means you have to say no to a lot of folks and opportunities, but it’s so refreshing.
