Welcome to the first ever edition of Digital Manna Monday. Everyone else seems to share their link roundups on Fridays, so I decided to do it at the beginning of the week; hopefully it will ease the pain of Mondays.
Here I share links to some of my favorite online happenings from the past week. They could be news articles, blog posts or cool new services.
Whatever they may be, they’re all digital manna: online gifts of illumination and enlightenment.
The Simple Guide to Making Money Online
Everett Bogue is one of the leading voices in the Minimalist community. In this informative post, he breaks down the steps to making money online with a blog and information products.
The timing was perfect, since I just released my first (free) information product The Minimalist Guide to Investing. I plan to use Everett’s instructions as a blueprint for my next information product.
TripIt.com
This is one awesome free service. TripIt is an online itinerary planner. We are using it to plan our trip to NYC this May.
Set up a free account, email your flight plans to plans@tripit.com and they import everything: flight numbers, confirmation numbers, dates and times. Then you can import the TripIt itinerary into your calendar (Gcal, Outlook, etc.). Really loving this service.
LOVE from Angels and Airways
Awesome new album from one of my favorite bands. The best part is that AvA is offering the album for FREE. Click on the link and download it instantly.
Don’t worry, it’s legit–I downloaded it a few weeks ago and haven’t had any issues.
The Minimalist Path
Dave Damron runs a great blog about simplifying life and enjoying the present. While there, check out my guest post What Minimalism Is NOT.
