The first ever Maker Faire was held recently in the Motor Maker City. Here is a paragraph or two I wrote about it.
I had hoped for a complete nights sleep. But here it is about 2:25 AM and this past weekend’s events won’t let me rest. An amazing thing happened. Thousands of area residents found new opportunities. Some people from a California company named O’Reilly Media came to Metro-Detroit and brought some fresh thinking with them. They called it the Maker’s Faire, and partnering with The Henry Ford, they proved to this metro native just how wide open our future possibilities are. Thanks to them I enjoyed an energy infused and exhaustively busy weekend unlike any in several years.
Michiganders, whose livelihood was dependent on bygone “automotive job for life”, had the future presented to them in the form of one, huge new idea. The idea is immediate and doesn’t require an advanced degree in anything; just a passion for making things, a passion that is all pervasive in this state. The idea to bring an event about making things, to a city born on making things, doesn’t seem earth shaking, but it was. Motor City became Maker City.
At the very basic level it provided a venue for people who make things, at home in the sewing room or the workshop, to share their passion with others like themselves and just sit down and talk about their journey. Taking the germ of an idea, to a tangible “hold in your hand” invention and sharing it with others like you is invaluable and so obvious, why didn’t we think of this ourselves. At an advanced level, for those looking to what is next for Detroit and Michigan, the future is in many of the 100’s ideas shared with the public.
For a weekend, the economy boomed for the participants
I encourage you to visit the following links and learn more about this event, the organizers, their publications and future plans for taking this innovative thinking around our nation.

Article Marketing: Money Making Method In A Nutshell
Wednesday, February 15th, 2012Here is the Article Marketing money making method in a nutshell:
Traffic to a website equals money potential.
The right keywords equal traffic.
Easiest keywords to rank for are called long tail keywords. They are search terms containing 3, 4 or more related terms like “Work From Home” or “7500 btu air conditioner”.
Diversification amongst several topics equals income security.
Original articles written and published on your blog, with other similar articles published on ezine sites, and comments on other blogs creating links to your website equal more traffic and a higher search ranking.
Fastidiously following these steps over and over until enough content written by you is ranked as number one in Google can create a large monthly adsense income.
Formula
4-5 websites ranked number one for keywords with traffic between 700 and 1000 visitors per month equal $1000.00 per month higher traffic results create more money. (eventually)
Replication of these efforts can scale up to any level creating a safe, secure, repeatable income if and only if the subject you wrote about are somewhat timeless or are periodically refreshed or new content is developed. (IE there are many ways to do this like opening your own publishing site for other writers).
An example of a timeless article is one that has step by step instructions for making a recipe like gumbo.
An example of an article that would become outdated and stop having visitors is a review of the new 1G Droid phone when people are now buying a 3G or 4G.
Income stream is portable meaning you live where you want as long as you can access the checks from Google AND the sites are sell-able for cash once they are sufficiently developed.
