Overview
This document lists a range of technology and software resources for the online
entrepreneur.

These are mostly tools Jeff has used or is comfortable recommending. Some of the
links in this document are affiliate links; most are not.

There are a lot of tools included here but this list is not exhaustive. There are many
tools out there and new technology is coming online all the time (and if there’s
something you know about that you don’t see on this list it doesn't mean it won’t
work).

And… you don't need all of these. In fact, just a few of them are probably
"mission-critical”.
