Solosez.net Redesigned
Solosez.net, the
website companion for the Solosez e-mail list, has been
completely redesigned. The website sports a new logo, easier
navigation, and a new monthly feature called “Popular
Threads.” Popular Threads is published each month and
includes several of the best message threads, covering topics
such as technology and helpful tips on being a sole practitioner.
Check out the redesign and find out more about Solosez at
