It’s the end of the week, and just like every Friday at The Solopreneur Life, I have some bits of information to share with you. This week’s column includes items on: a possible new social media trend; a Web analytics product that I really like (finally!); my bit part in a soft-drink company’s social media strategy; your weekly “botpreneur.” Let’s do it up, and enjoy the long weekend!

This is an interview with Larry Keltto, founder of The Solopreneur Life. He discusses the nitty-gritty behind the development of the “Idea to Market In 10 Weeks” Mastermind Group, which was introduced today (Wednesday, September 1) at TheSolopreneurLife.com.
