As a blog newbie I am on a huge learning curve. However, if I can learn to do things right from the very beginning then it can only do good in the long run. Thanks John!! This is an amazing post.

Is that how you describe yourself nowadays rather than dot.com mogul? Maybe you should change your header on the site - the root of all evil! I can just imagine people being introduced to you who didn't know about your blog - hi this is my friend John Chow he's the root of all evil! :lol: Hehe!

And do you use social networks to cross the line with family and business or do you keep your personal online networks separate from your business ones?

I think he's waiting until its hit his revenue target for the site but no-one is really sure of what that figure is. Knowing John its a lot though!

Like anywhere else, who you are is probably the biggest factor to winning in any business. It's cool how John has made his business successful by being himself and being open to share value along the way. That's the key. I don' tsee a lot of that discussed but I think it's the #1 reason John's so successful--he is offering value and he is really open to sharing. That will always draw a crowd.
