What ideas Janie? I`m always open to new ones (and the ones I forgot too!)

This might be an interesting read for you too...

It`s a summary of a LONG thread on MSN Entrepreneur Group.

Nick

"The human being is a wanting animal and rarely reaches a state of complete satisfaction except for a short time. As one desire is satisfied, another pops up to take its place. When this is satisfied, still another comes into the foreground and so on. It is a characteristic of human beings throughout their whole lives that they are practically always desiring something." - Abraham H. Maslow, Psychologist, Motivation and Personality

Janie, that was a one-day stat, not cumulative... sorry your site crashed!

Wow, if no one wants to say that`s amazing,.... I will. As far as the site crashing, they said it was during maintenance that the server crashed, but the hits coming through probably didn`t help them with what they were doing! Sadly I have no stats. Everything is gone from that day.

Ideas Nick?....I`ll get back to you.

Read all the postings and realized there is a newsletter. How do I receive the newsletter. I do get emails from SuN but no newsletter.

I have found this site so full of information that sometimes I go away with my head spinning but spurred on to do something new and exciting for my business.

rich & friends,

in retrospect i am glad i made this post. so many ideas have been shared and we have gotten a good glimpse of what`s to come. it`s definitely exciting for entrepreneurs and those aspiring to be (it all starts with a shift in mindset).

i subscribed to the podcast feed today and only 15 files appeared on my itunes download menu. i tried searching everywhere but could not locate a section where i can get the archives. can anyone guide me in the right direction? is there a way to subscribe to an RSS feed that will download all the archives for me into itunes?

help would be appreciated - and for those not taking advantage of the podcasts i highly recommend you do. even if they don`t directly pertain to your business concept there is so much that can be extracted and applied to business in general. even if there isn`t, you are still learning something new.

thanks for everyone`s help in advance

WebJunky,

We do offer a download for each podcast episode on it`s own episode page. I know it`s not as efficient as one feed, but if you grab a few at a time, it is fairly quick.

The RSS feeds are limited to the last 15 episodes, as it is a recommended industry standard. If we listed all podcasts in our feed, it would become unmanagable and quite "iTunes-crashing" for many people.

Thanks for being a key part of the StartupNation community.

Hey Rich.. I still find the site inspirational, inciteful, and even a kick in pants sometimes.

I continue to be thankful for all the wise words of entreprenuers and business pioneers who continue to blaze the way and help us newbies along the way.

I salute the entire StartupNation!

If there was ever a time where we needed support, it would be now...Being an entrepreneur is harder than ever...and we have fewer resources by the minute...

Hi Jean Ann, I see your posts on twitter. How is your biz doing? I think we have a lot of resources and support here. We just need to keep on contributing to Sun, which I find to be a great community to learn from. It`s the place I go to.....Twitter and face book seem to be so much to keep up with. I love this community and getting to know the great entrepreneurs here.

Janie
