Today’s contributions are:

Having personally attended sessions with Neil Patel and Rand Fishkin on the panels, I can say that those will be great quality and I’m looking forward to checking them out. Darren Rowse is also a great guy (man behind ProBlogger.net) whom I enjoy following on Twitter, so that should be a good interview as well.
The expo will run for a few days, so mosey over and check it out.
Read MoreI KNEW IT – Genius Level Ain’t Bad
Seth Godin understands me, without knowing it. He recently made a post about dumbing down to reach the average.
The thing is, when you dumb stuff down, you know what you get?
Dumb customers.
Too true! I recently made a post myself about my blog ranking at a Genius Level reading ability. I pondered whether or not it was a good thing, since the Melissa Donovan’s post (where I first saw the quiz) was proposing that it was good to rank lower so more people could understand you.
But that’s not how I write. It’s not the type of people who appreciate my writing. So why should I “dumb down” what I write in order to reach the average middleman? That was my stance, and I don’t mind saying that I feel justified that a major blogger like Seth sees things my way.
One of the comments on my previous blog noted that you should write the way you speak when blogging. That opens up the conversation. I completely agree with that, and the thing is… I do speak this way. Which is why I write this way. I need not apologize for my love of grammar and syntax!
Read MoreBlogOnExpo – We’ll Be There!
BlogOnExpo is a collaborative effort that was started by Aditya Mahesh. The goal of the website is to make the experience of attending an industry conference available to all. With prices reaching up to $1000 per ticket plus airfare, hotel bills, and other travel expenses, it is not much of a surprise that many individuals and companies cannot afford to attend these conferences. Hence, they have attempted to recreate the conference experience online, where it can be accessed at no cost.
This particular conference will be covering the topic of blogging. When launched on January15th, 2008, the conference will feature sessions, interviews, videos, and more. The sessions featured in the expo will be written by Aditya and some of the other blogging experts met along the way. Each session is written with the mindset of helping you improve your blog and ultimately increase your blog’s readership, impact, and revenue.
PsPrint is a proud exhibitor at BlogOnExpo. Remember to read their blog to keep updated on the expo and stop by on January 15th to see all the exhibitors and read the valuable tips and sessions available to bloggers out there.

All in one printing is a valuable asset to have. The printer I use at home, an HP OfficeJet 6210, is a great piece of machinery. With this I can print anything I want with photo quality results (usually photos and Google Map directions are what I’m printing). I can also scan my photos, make copies for free, and, if I had land line phone service, I could easily fax to my heart’s content. I’ve had all in one printers for a few years now, and I’d never go back to a simple printer as my main machine.
Here at the office we have a Konica machine that almost does as much as my little HP (despite being 5 times the size). It prints, it scans, it copies, it slices, it dices. Wait – rewind those last two there.
But it’s a great machine when it’s not tragically overworked by the volume our office sends it’s way. Without an all in one machine like this, our efficiency is severely hindered. Anyone who’s been here on a day when the printer goes down knows exactly what I mean.
While not a scientific percentage, a quick search of Google Shopping shows 23,015 results for “all in one printer”, so clearly there are a ton on the market and many small businesses look for combination deals like this to save on money and supplies. Every business I’ve worked at has kept a similar all-in-one machine in their arsenal of office equipment. So if these are so important to us, why do people still look to specialized companies for their professional printing needs?
The best stop is a printing company that can do it all for you. This way you save on supplies, shipping, and effort. The time you save dealing with one company to do everything for you will increase your efficiency and give you time for other more important projects than ordering more business cards. Naturally all businesses want to get more bang for their buck, so the best solution is to go somewhere with great quality and low prices.
PsPrint, one of the first online printing companies and the only online printer with facilities on both coasts, is a one-stop-shop. Offering exceptional quality at bargain prices, PsPrint offers everything from business cards to presentation folders, professional graphic design services to mailing services. They can take care of your printing needs from start to finish. It’s a great online resource to have in your back pocket. Ordering online has never been easier: just upload your artwork, pick out what you want, and associate the two. BAM – you’re in business.
Don’t take my word for it… head over to PsPrint and check out the selection of products and services for yourself. You’ll wonder why you went to any other printer before.
