This post was delayed due to a problem with the video that I had received. While I did interview Marc Silverstein and we had a great conversation, unfortunately the video I got froze in one spot -- and the video would not advance but the audio worked just fine. What I have done to be able to present these cool tools & gadgets from Marc Silverstein, consumer expert at DailyLounge.com is to feature the generic video (complete with his audio) but also include MY audio from my direct interview with him as a podcast/mp3 file. We are all experiencing tough financial times right now; learn the essential tools that small businesses need to hit the ground running. June 17th kicks off National Small Business Week and no other sector is as important to the US economy as this one. According to a recent report by McKinsey, small businesses create nearly 2/3 of all net new jobs and generate 13X as many patents per employee as large companies do. Technology is playing a big role in helping entrepreneurs get started and helping them leverage their companies against the big guys. Unlike many other products, the cost of technology is dropping – what you can get today is far more advanced and yet costs less than it did just a few years ago. Marc Silverstein will show some of the tools and services that your small business viewers and those who are thinking of starting their own companies and pursuing their passions can use to jump out ahead of the competition. Please see Marc Silverstein on DailyLounge.com. follow him there! Because of discussion that Marc Silverstein and I had about the topic of small businesses creating more jobs, it's relevant for you to hear it.

Personal Finance Expert Farnoosh Torabi shares some amazing information about "The Sharing Economy". Some of you might get this intuitively. Others might be thinking "say what?". Here's how the basics of The Sharing Economy is explained. Sharing - it’s something most of us learned in Kindergarten, but in recent months this simple interaction has turned into an economic revolution. Coined “The Sharing Economy,” the rise of networks for social sharing, peer-to-peer rentals and online marketplaces are allowing consumers to list, discover and book local experiences, goods and services from a growing community of people all around the world. The shift from consumption to sharing can be seen in everything from lofts, to tree houses, to washing machines. (umm not sure I would share my washing machine, but if you had one, how about the people next door in the apartment with the baby. Would you rent out your washing machine every couple of days to help them save on time and gas to get laundry done while the baby naps or is out for a walk? Why not? “The Sharing Economy” is changing the way we travel, consume and live and explain how consumers can make it work for them.
