Tons of Free but Valuable Stuff,
The tools, software and online resources in this book are mostly free, but I found them to be really valuable immediately in doing more in my business online and in the cloud. I have saved 20 times the cost of the book in using some of the free cloud computing solutions presented.
It’s also good to know that the author isn’t pushing products and services for a commission. If you want to do more online in managing and marketing a small, or tiny, business, this book is an amazing value at $4.99.

|Good resource guide,
This book covers some cloud based services other than the standard business applications. (For another good source for a lot of business cloud services look at “Startup@Cloud” by Paul M. Duvall.
Aside from email (which takes up about 25% of the book and focuses mainly on Gmail), blogs and CRM, the author presents some other interesting topics like copyright (and how to find unauthorized use of your material on the web), mind mapping, image storage and video production.
A couple of complaints. The author sometimes uses terms (like “drip mail”) without explaining them, assuming that you already know what they are. And may of the applications that are discussed are for the iPhone/iPad, with no mention of Android or other platforms.
These are minor issues. This is a very good starting point for finding resources for your business, and it’s well worth the price.
