Time for a roundup of useful links from across this beast we call the world wide web:

CopyBlogger has another great article, entitled Writing Copy Even Grandma Will Love. Who doesn’t want to make Granny proud?
Steve Pavlina has 33 Rules to Boost Your Productivity. Because these were so popular he did 33 more and 33 more after that. See how productive he is? Steve is very protective of his time (power to him) so not all of these may be appropriate for freelancers that need to be available to their clients during working hours, but many are good to consider and implement. Some are also pretty funny.
Our own Leo Babauta published a great article at his blog Zen Habits about Refreshing Your Focus Every Week To Achieve More. Whatever stage you’re at in your career, it’s great to look to your goals on a regular basis.
Ririan Project has 5 Powerful Tips To Immediately Improve Your Presentations. Good advice for those of us who need to present our work regularly.
And finally, yet another reason to freelance – Did You Know You Have No Legal Rights To Your Vacation as a U.S. employee? Neither did I!

If you have a useful link or article that you think FreelanceSwitch readers would be interested in, Send It In!
