Podcast interviews with financial bloggers

As I already mentioned before, I enjoy reading personal finance blogs a lot lately. The perspective they give me to some financial questions is very valuable.

I recently stumbled upon a collection of podcast interviews with many of these bloggers and I am tremendously enjoying learning about these people firsthand. Check out these links to the interviews with bloggers that I frequently visit.

What is up with my electricity bill?

Dean from MrCheapStuff, who just stole my blog template ;-), has uncovered an interesting tool that allows you to calculate the approximate energy usage and cost of most major electric appliances. It might be an eye opener for some to find that most of the electricity costs come from heating and cooling, and not from lightening.

TheFind — you have sinned!

Starting up a business is not an easy thing. As much as innovative your idea can be, the temptation may be high to cut some corners here and there to make the results look better than they really are.

Guess what, TheFind, the price comparison engine that consistently raises in the list I publish monthly, was caught red-handed. It looks like among other things they are not were not highlighting the sponsored results for the terms you are searching. Is there a greater sin a search engine can commit?

Thefind, the search engine, not as clean as we thought at VetureBeat
