Three points of business:

1)  Last week’s host, Simply Forties, caught right on to the new rules I had posted on BlogCarnival.com and on the submission form here:

• Posts submitted to this carnival shall not be submitted to any other blog carnival.
• A link back to the carnival is required if your post is included.

For those of you who had submitted your post to another carnival and received an e-mail from Simply Forties about it, thank you for your understanding.  What I’m aiming for is to improve the focus of the carnivals, and thereby attract a more targeted audience for your posts.  I’m also doing it as an extra incentive for people to host the carnival.

2)  Please use the submission form on this site.  The one at BlogCarnival.com is still up for now, but once enough people are using this form instead of the BlogCarnival.com form, I’ll be disabling it.

3)  Do you have a debt reduction tip you’d like to share?  If so, let me know and we’ll have you write it up (with a guest post flavor) and I’ll include a link to your site and your feed (or your social bookmarking profile if you want that).  The tip would be included in the debt reduction tips section of this site.

4)  Bonus point of business   Green Panda Treehouse will be hosting next week instead of Living Almost Large.
