Books and eBooks aren’t the only things that are “in print” that people find useful, or enjoy. There’s many ways that the written word can benefit us, here’s just a few obvious ones:

• Birthday Greetings (today is my sister’s birthday!)
• Christmas Greeting Cards
• Business Cards
• Party Invitations
• Wedding Invitations
• Even things as humble as the return address labels on an envelope.

You can make each of these items a promotional piece by adding your logo, or something that matches the cover of the latest book that you have written.  Then personalize them to your liking.  This can be done for business purposes or your own personal needs.

I visited the link above, and loved the pricing, and had some fun trying to design a few things of my own.  There’s a very large selection of ways to promote yourself, your book or ebook, or your business.

I was recently introduced to a medical software company that is family owned.

As the name of the site, MedicalMags.com, would indicate, the company has compiled a large collection of medical publications over a period of time. The knowledge they have has been gained by working together with many different medical professionals.

On visiting the site, you will find text links along the right, and a slide-show type screen that presents some of the things the site offers. I decided to click on “Skyscape Mobile Software” to see what type of information was available, and found that there were 18 carefully selected publications about topics such as cancer, radiation, anatomy, accidents, fractures…but not as simplistic as this list sounds, these topics are covered in depth for the medical professional.

You may also be interested in the Springer Protocols which include:

• More than 18,000 protocols, 2,000 are added each year
• Based on tried and tested resources including Methods in Molecular Biology
• Collaborative web 2.0 features available on SpringerProtocols
• Specific Online Libraries
• Interconnected on SpringerLink to all Springer content (Online Journals and eReference Works)
• Fully integrated in your library catalogue

This is just a VERY small taste of all the helpful medical information that you will find at the site. I would encourage you to visit to learn more.
