Seth Godin: Find your passion. My passion is raiding Dan Rather’s secret collection of weird analogies.It might be a virgin squirrel, but it works for me. Now, find your virgin squirrel.

TechCrunch: You know what would be cool? @ev and @biz monetizing Twitter by using FCC loopholes to market cigarettes to minors. You know what would be cooler? Dropping the “You know what would be cool” part, and posting the story.

The Business Insider: Ingredients for a successful blog network: a dozen great writers, and maybe three stock photos.

Paul Graham: In the end, success boils down to being the 25-year-old me, taking advice from the 40-year-old me.

Election violence in Iran is a symptom of democracy in Iran. I’m not sure there’s a good Twitter icon to represent that thought, though.

So, two Japanese nationals got caught with $134 billion in US Treasury bonds, and nobody knows if they’re real or not. Imagine, for a second, that you own the bonds, and they’re real.

• If you sell them at face value, that’s a massive bet on your own honesty.
• If you try to sell them at less than face value, you’re admitting you could be a crook. Who wants to bet billions of dollars on an admitted potential criminal?
• You could try to prove that they’re real, but you might end up spending millions of dollars — and you might spend that money only to find out that they’re fake.
• You could just wait for them to mature, and see if anybody else cashes in bonds with the same serial numbers. But then you’re acting like they’re really worth $134 billion, so anyone willing to risk anything less than that to get them is getting a good deal. Suddenly, your job is as hard as the secret services’, but your budget is zero.

So what would you do? Going to some remote mountain pass and trying to ditch those bonds as fast as possible sounds pretty good to me.

So, a couple minutes ago, I had a great idea. I read HARO religiously, and forward pitches that friends might find interesting. Lots of people know what HARO is, but don’t have the time to read fifty “People who have had spoken to the ghost of a beloved pet” requests to get at one that’s relevant to what they do.

There’s an opportunity! I could just create a site that helps people automatically search HARO, and only send them the relevant pitches. Pretty easy to create, pretty cheap to maintain, and it would pay for itself with ads.

So I checked the obvious domain, and — at www.harohelper.com, somebody is doing exactly what I thought of, in exactly the same way.
