Why You’ll Love It
Because it’s the funniest thing on the b5 network, if you ask me. If you’re holding a beverage or eating anything, including gum, put it down, swallow it, or spit it out before you start reading, or it will be ALL over your computer monitor. This is way more interesting than reading regular old business and politcal news in the paper or on a straight news site — and more fun, too. The "Scrolling Headlines" recurring feature is my favorite.

Putting some shizzle into your work … and making your work day better
Why You’ll Love It
Pimp Your Work is one of my favorite sites period, and definitely on my list of top busines sites to visit. It’s just darn good advice with a great sense of humor and, for lack of a better word, flair. I love the productivity tips, and every visit makes me smile — and not just because I like the dude in the header.

Why You’ll Love It
If you’re interested in branding, advertising, and marketing, Behind the Buzz is for you. Rachel delves into what works, what doesn’t and why, with a focus on social marketing (think YouTube, viral games, etc). Totally fascinating. It makes me think about business promotion in a whole new way — which I love!

tax news, tax info and tax policy – and it’s not as boring as you think!
Why You’ll Love It
They say the only certainties in life are death and taxes. Kelly can’t help you much with the first one, but she’s a real lifesaver when it comes to the latter. Especially if you’re self-employed or a business owner, you’ll love the down-to-earth, simple information at taxgirl. And, I can’t believe it myself, Kelly actually makes taxes interesting. Who’d a thunk?
