Avatar Life Coach
"If I were to launch a Web 2.0 business today, I wouldn’t rely on advertising or subscriptions or maximizing my page­views. I wouldn’t worry about technology at all, in fact. I’d become a personal avatar consultant, helping nervous people construct and manage their menagerie of online selves. Or I’d become a psychotherapist specializing in avatar issues, maybe even renting an office in Second Life with a little virtual couch. I would, in short, find a way to capitalize on what promises to be a lucrative epidemic of avatar anxiety."

"1. Write a short how-to
2. Start your title with a number
3. Talk about del.icio.us
4. Encourage people to ‘spread the word’
5. Embrace recursion"
