...blog, tips round-ups.
Is anyone finding this lately? Every single day I get posted, or see at least 3 or 'new' articles on 'how to be a freelancer', 'how to work from home and structure your day' etc etc.
Then at the bottom is has a bio of a snot nose 22 year old graphic designer from Bristol (or some other third world country).
THEN people are blogging about all these blogs and calling them 'round-ups'.
What the fuck is going on? Is there money to be made here or do people just think they know everything?
I might go write on my blog (I've never written in it) about the blogs that roundup articles and other useful blogs.

uh huh....the "4 hour work week" and "work for yourself" is the new gold rush, and in gold rushes, the suppliers and hypers make money, not the people actually looking for the gold.....
just like an old donald duck cartoon about the way to make a million dollars is to write a book about how to make a million dollars and millions of people will buy it hoping to make money while the writer actually makes money....

How many fucking motion reels can you watch or how to articles you read a day while absorbing 50 vector inspirational book covers, 3 things you didn't know about Google, 58 CSS3 shortcut keys, html5 'round-up' links while sipping a coffee?

I once knew an editor who said "those x best y" stories are the sign of a lazy editor.... they almost write themselves with an hour of google and some cutting and pasting and rewording and a few smart headlines.
