This weeks installment is the second of what I hope will be many. I tried to get a good cross section of blogs and I think you will enjoy. I even threw in a blog from a practicing attorney and from a non-practicing attorney.
Here are this weeks links:
Chuck Newton is back to riding the Third Wave as he tells us he is back, but hold the applause. Chuck is a home office warrior. Don’t discount Chuck’s blog just because he is a lawyer. He works from a home office. In fact, he is in a new office/home as he calls it now. Chuck’s insight into the “Third Wave” is really something. Check out his blog.
Also from the legal side of things, Susan Cartier Liebel reminds us that her blog is one year old and she has a present for us. Susan’s blog is called Build a Solo Practice, LLC. This is another one that should not be discounted just because it is done by an attorney. Susan’s blog provides a huge amount of information about building a business. Not just a legal business, but in my opinion, any solo business. Be watching for something special soon.
Next is the Clerical Advantage presents… and her post When is a Blog more than a Blog? You may know Tina from her great series of 100 ways for a Home Office Warrior to use a Virtual Assistant running on this blog. Good stuff.
The WSJ.com had a post just the other day called The Good News About Telecommuting. More and more, the main stream media is picking up on the home office “worker” over the last few weeks.
In fact, NPR not only had a blog post called The New Home Office. They had a “Talk of the Nation” topic on the home office.
“Is my advertising effective?” was a question asked by FreelanceMom.com She reminds us that target marketing is the most critical aspect of a campaign. Target marketing is something I talk about to individuals who are considering blogging to market their business. Niche or target marketing is in my view the most effective for your time and money.
You know you are living in 2007 when…. is this weeks post from Essential Keystrokes. Her number 1 is wonderful. “You know you are living in 2007 when you accidentally enter your password on the microwave.” Not far from the truth actually. Good list.
5 technologies that hurt your work life balance was provided by Dad Balance, one of the blogs in eMoms at Home network of blogs. However, I have to say, I would not give up any of the 5 whether it would help my work life balance or not. Nope, not happening.
Escape from Cubicle Nation gave us excellent reading for those paralyzed by fear of leaving their job. And that might be and most likely is the first thing that has to be done to become a home office warrior. By the way, if you don’t have Escape from Cubicle Nation in your RSS feeder, do it. It is worth a weekly read at least.
And a new blog to me anyway, Home Office Telephony is packed full of “Tips & Tricks for Home-Based Businesses to attract more clients using “Big Company” telephone systems and strategies.” Check it out. Good stuff.
Well, thats it for this week. Be watching same time, same place next week. Unless of course, someone wants to be the host. Here is the link to submit your post for next weeks Home Office Warrior Blog Carnival. If you are interested in hosting an upcoming issue, please drop me an email at grantgriffiths@mac.com

Thanks, Grant for mentioning my blog to your readership. There are more than 20 million home based businesses in the U.S. and this site should be required reading for all those 20 million as there is no central interent magazine for all matters ‘home office’ like the Home Office Warrior. Nice job.
