Becoming an Amazon Shill...

So I'm reading Barry Schwartz's book The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less and thinking about the steps I took to select Blogger versus of any of the other blogging options.  Turns out Barry is right, spending time looking at too many options is not useful and can be painful.  So rather than using the time to evaluate multiple blogging sites I picked one and used the free time to set up an Amazon Associates account.  Seriously, the book is great because he really gets you thinking about not only choice but how you spend your time.
