From the Desk of Janet Barclay

As promised last time, today I’m going to share five links. I learned about this meme (that’s 2) from Cristina Favreau, and I’m going to follow her lead and post links to five sites that I find useful in my work.

Part 1: The Five Rules

1. MUST be clean. No R rated sites.
2. Only FIVE links.
3. MUST tell 5 people.
4. A link back to the person who tagged you
5. Lara’s Place is the meme originator

Part 2: My Five Links:

1. Stock.XCHNG - One of the few stock photography collections that is absolutely free of charge, and I’ve used it many times to source photos for my own and my clients’ websites.

2. SendThisFile - A handy tool to use when a file is too large to send by email.

3. WebSource - Lots of tips and tutorials related to website design and development. One tool I have found especially useful is their chart of 216 web safe colours.

4. EzineArticles - One of the best article directories in terms of quality and ease of use. I use it for posting my own and my clients’ articles as well as for locating content for newsletters.

5. The Quote Garden - One of many collections of quotations, its garden theme gives it a certain appeal.

Part 3: My Five Tags:

I’d like to see the following people participate:

1. Erin Blaskie
2. Jacki Hollywood Brown
3. Kathie Thomas
4. Mark Susnow
5. Monica Ricci

Of course, anyone else who’d like to share five links is welcome to do so! Please leave a comment here with a link to your blog.
