Point, Click, and Save

If you're on the internet wading through blog world, you may be somewhat savvy about many fantastic online resources and opportunities available. I thought I was pretty savvy until I read Point, Click, and Save by Mashup Mom (Rachel Singer Gordon).

The book goes quickly and is full of straight-forward, helpful information about everything internet - from couponing to finding freebies to starting your own business. She mentions sites I already knew about like swagbucks and ebates.com, but she also includes other similar sites that allow you to make a little money. Interestingly, a mashup refers to saving/making money from multiple sources. For instance, using paper and electronic coupons at the grocery store while adding money to your upromise account.

Because it was released recently, the links and sites she mentions are still around and accessible. She wades through the not-so-good deals to present legitimate offers, telling you how to avoid being scammed.

I really enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who blogs, wants to save money, or wants to generate income through the internet. And of course, to save money, I read it through the library. (G, recommended)
