6 home business office clean-up tips
By SuccessTelevision.com, on Fri Aug 22, 2008 1:03pm PDTForget all the hype people, working from home can be heck. Demonic refrigerators and Antarctic-like isolation can turn the experience into a Stephen King novel.

Fight age discrimination in your job hunt: Manage your digital footprint
By Miriam Salpeter, Keppie Careers, on Thu Jul 17, 2008 10:16pm PDTYou thought social media was for the “kids?” Blogging, Twitter, Facebook …You don’t have time to engage online with a bunch of people -- you’re busy with your job hunt! Think again!
Yesterday, I posted about the value of social networking for the job seeker. Then, as I usually do, I went through my blogroll to see what’s out there in the career space.
