Ain’t it nice?!  So I shouldn’t be bragging about $100 from Google.  I mean, OfficeSpares may have transacted $5,000 this week, RamPrint.com now pays my bills, and it’s not like Google took me any less work per dollar.  But there’s something about completely residual money, no matter how much time it took to get set up, that’s beautiful.  I came home from work one day this week and there was $100 in the mail, which, for those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, is residual AdWords revenue from ads I’ve allowed Google to place on my websites.  Thank you, Google.

Office Spares needs a network

So I get calls from all over the country from people wanting to donate their phone systems via Office Spares.   But often they’re not in locations I can support.  Last week one in Miami; a few weeks ago an oil company in Houston…  If you belong to any cause, anywhere in the country, or would like to donate your time to one, please give us a call.  Basically we’ll tell you when someone calls from your area, you can go out and pick up their phones (hopefully bringing along someone with the confidence to take the servers off the wall if they’re still wired up), you or I can clean it up, sell it on eBay, and donate a chunk of the money to an appropriate charity.
