March 12 CotC at Small Business Trends

Small Business Trends presents the March 12 edition of Carnival of the Capitalists. It’s the best of a bumper crop of entries this week. Be sure to check it out.

There is one more Q&A question carried over from last week at Capital Commerce, a U.S. News & World Report blog by James Pethokoukis. It’s my own submission, asking about the controversial 2005 bankruptcy law, and can be found in the post:

  • How Democrats Plan to ‘Rearrange’ Your Taxes
  • If you missed them, previous entries in the series were:

  • Don’t Use the Market to Predict a Recession
  • Did the Drudge Report Help Tank the Stock Market
  • What’s Worse, the AMT or a Recession?
  • We got some huge traffic from a couple of the Q&A posts, between one of them getting the attention of Instapundit, and a couple of them being picked up by Yahoo! as business news articles. Conversely, it looks like we generated plenty of out clicks back to James. All in all a great experiment.

    Which brings me to another experiment. Last week I announced the idea of a featured mainstream business media article:

    There is something new we’re going to try: A featured mainstream business media article.

    Submit a link and brief description of your favorite article of the last week or so from the online version of a more traditional, non-blog publication. We’ll select one to highlight in CotC and/or here, and attempt to notify the author or powers that be at the publication that the article has been chosen. The details will be subject to change, as this is an entirely new idea, a few days old. Submission deadline will be end of the day each Friday.

    Send article submissions to bizosphere -at- gmail -dot- com.

    Since there were no submissions, there is no new feature, at least not this week. Anyone?

    Next week’s CotC will be hosted by me, unless anyone gives me a really compelling offer to host. That would make it an especially good time to start the aforementioned new feature.

    1. Jay,

      Looks like you could use a host during March. Let me know if I can help again.

    2. You have probably seen this, but it would be very good to send to anyone who needs the more simplistic, visual experience to understand.
