A1 is such a rich source of information and advice for small business owners.

Every day there's a little jewel of information twinkling away in one of the many great forums.

Questions get answered in a flash by other members with the experience and knowledge to provide a solution. And because there are so many of us and we have different ways of approaching a problem, different perspectives on the same issue are often shared with the original poster.

And even if you're not specifically looking for help, you can pick up a little gem of information that will help your business. Only yesterday I was able to add the "Hugg" icon to my green business blog thanks to a post by another member in the eco business forum.

And if that wasn't enough, there are fabulous networking opportunities that you just wouldn't get if you weren't a member of A1. Sally's [albeit accidental] creation of a pink sheep on her Rural Diaries blog led me to drop her a PM to see if she would like me to blog about it on my pink blog. A few hours later, I had blogged about Sally's Country Couples blog and her dating tips blog and she had blogged about my pink blog.

What a great place to be. Thanks everyone .
