I've heard about the Kindle but do not know much about it so how exactly does the Kindle work?

[givingitawaytv]

@PhulesKnight I don't have one, but the way it works is you go online with it and you can rent digital books from your library, buy them online. Basically just replaces books :)

[cheesemon]

I've been thinking of starting a business someday, but I heard that entrepreneurs give up a lot of if not all of free time for their business. Since starting Givingitaway, and especially with it transitioning to daily, do you still manage to take vacations and outings?

[givingitawaytv]

@cheesemon You absolutely don't have to give up a lot. You can easily start up a business with even just an hour a day. The key is to just start it! I'll be talking about this quite a bit actually soon, so stay tuned!

[lilgrif212]

I absolutely love that you guys do this.

[givingitawaytv]

@lilgrif212 Thanks! We love that you enjoy our giveaways!

[linds0120]

[theborgs]

In an other video, you told me you are not reading Reddit. Are you a Digg or 4Chan user simply not into those sites ?

Do you record your videos a few hours before you upload them or you have a couple already ready and waiting ?

[givingitawaytv]

@theborgs Yeah, I'm not into any of those sites. I have a few blogs that I visit somewhat regularly but that's about it. Sometimes I'll record them the day before, sometimes I'll do 2-3 at the same time. But now going to a video every day I think I'm going to do them once a day and pick a comment or something to talk about. We'll see.

[givingitawaytv]

@misssy86 Thanks for watching regardless! I really, really hope to expand worldwide but it's costly in terms of paying my lawyer to make sure that my giveaways are legal in whichever countries I expand too. I can't say for sure when that is going to be, but I'm aiming for within the next 6 months.
