Oprah Discovers the Kindle.
Oprah’s discovered the Amazon Kindle! I know. I know. If you’re like me, you discovered this electronic book reader eons ago, back when it was supposed to be the “It” gift for Christmas 2007.

Everybody Else’s Guide to Green & Socially Responsible Careers Now in Paperback (and e-book)!
Gas prices are down and oil companies are eager to hold on to their big profits.
