Great post, wish more people would find their questions on the web first, it is very rare that I need a question answered that hasn’t been answered in the past already. It’s also annoying when people ask questions that would basically require that you do the work for them, it’s like, are you going to pay me to do this for you?

I don’t sit on the forums all day long, I stop by every few days and do a search for “unanswered” posts (replies = 0). When you bump your own posts, you take them out of the unanswered queue, even though they technically remain unanswered. Not to mention that bumping is poor etiquette — not everyone is in your time zone. Also, you may have either a) asked a question so simple that Google could have solved it, or b) the question is so poorly worded that nobody can even begin to answer it.

I’d like to add my blog into the mix as well if I may (www.tips-for-excel.com). I’m still working on expanding each tip and I’m starting to focus some tips that are aimed at helping digital marketers who use Excel. My Chart tips are not a patch on yours either(!) but hopefully I’ve helped out a few people so far.
