I'm frustrated and stuck and crabby. Maybe what I need is a different perspective -- a break from what I've been doing for the last 6 weeks. I found both in Ed Dale's 30 Day Challenge; I joined up yesterday, and spent last night installing an entirely different way to watch the Web.

I submitted my fist article to Ezines yesterday. I've got half a dozen pages on my site, populardelusions.net, and I'm collecting PDFs at a prodigious rate from the ShareZone. A lot of them are great; I need to harvest the ideas from these and build myself some cheat sheets. Some of them just don't apply to what I'm doing.
