“The web is a mile wide and an inch deep.”

True enough. But there’s tons of great stuff out there for starting up your internet business.

Here’s a quick snapshot of some resources I have uncovered lately…

Y Combinator
“Y Combinator is a new kind of venture firm specializing in funding early stage startups. We help startups through what is for many the hardest step, from idea to company.”

I came across this interesting new site by accident. An article posted here on Creative Entrepreneurship got a lot of attention this week. Looks like a very promising site & venture!

Fast Company
“Award-winning articles on business leadership and innovation”
Yeah, yeah… You know about the magazine already. But have you read the blog? I just started reading this week. Very useful stuff!

Internet Business Mastery Podcast
“An internet marketing podcast discussing how to prosper as an entrepreneur in your internet based business on the road to financial freedom.”

Yeah, yeah… I already gave these guys a glowing review. What can I say? I’m a very loyal fan. (And I’m itching to hear their next episode!!!) If you have ANY thoughts about starting an internet business, this is a “must listen.”

Next week, I’ll offer up some “Mindful Marketing Resources.” Let me know if you have any suggestions…

Springer - a major science/tech book publisher - recently announced that it will donate over $1 million worth of eBooks to universities in the New Orleans area.  The donation is part of a growing effort to help restore the area in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina

This is not only a fantastic charitable act, but also a great example of how eBooks are transforming the publishing world.  Although Springer specializes in science texts and resources, it will not be long before we begin to see eBooks catching on in other sectors.  I’m certainly not suggesting that dusty books with *real* pages will ever disappear completely. 

Check out the eBooks demonstration video at the Springer site.
