Welcome to another edition of Computer Guy’s Corner!  During the week I collect a small handful of links to useful news, reviews, and blog postings that relate to small business news, productivity, tech gossip, troubleshooting tools, industry news, or any random stuff that I find helpful, and share it with my readers.  Feel free to comment about any of the articles I’ve included and let me know your take!

Starting a PC Repair Business (entrepreneur.com) - Great article with tips to get you started on the right foot with your computer repair business.

Tips for Incubating your Small Business Idea While Still Working Full-Time (elance blog) - Anita Campbell, from Small Business Trends, wrote this guest post for Elance.  It offers some excellent tips for folks like me who are running a small business part time along-side a full-time job.

Girlfriend 5.0 (Alex Shalman.com) - HILARIOUS computer geek take on relationships!  Thanks to Eric for the link!

10 Things to Check Before You Start Working on the Help Desk (TechRepublic) - Having been on a help desk in some capacity for about 5 years myself, I’d say this is a must read for any of you computer savvy folks that are thinking about getting a job on a help desk.  Surprisingly it’s more about politics and policies than it is about technical knowledge!

7 Reasons to Blog About Your Business  (Legalzoom) -  If you haven’t done so already, start a blog about your business, or about starting your business.  I can speak from experience that it’s not only fun, but also extremely helpful!
