Maybe I'll change to don't sell (directly) as I agree, there may be an element of sellign (even if it's oneself) but it's often not overt.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;thanks&lt;/p&gt;

Regarding Point no. 10 - especially good advice! But should you still blog about stuff &amp;nbsp;that irritates you, or you are passionate about seeing improved, or is there a danger that will simply come off as a miserable-old-sod rant?&lt;/p&gt;
