For some Christians around the world, this week is a significant week as folks commemorate some of the most significant events in their faith. In some countries (like Australia, where I live), this week and next week are shortened work weeks – what with Friday off (Good Friday) and Monday off (day after Easter Sunday).

I know that last week, we talked about public holidays and online businesses. And now, I wonder:

1) Do you celebrate holy week where you live (regardless of your personal faith)?
2) Does holy week affect your online business at all? If yes, in what way?
3) Does your business tie in with this Christian holiday at all? If yes, how?
4) If you’re a Christian, do you believe that people should still try to make money during Good Fridays, etc.? Why or why not?

Open Mic Monday: Holy Week and Making Money Online

It’s Public Holiday Monday today here in Adelaide, South Australia. Folks are taking the time off to celebrate the state’s biggest horse racing day – the Adelaide Cup.

I must admit that I’ve never been to a real horse racing event. But, I still enjoy the festivities. BBQs, fun hats, parties…

Anyway, I know that during public holidays like today, I have to do a bit of preparation for my online work, if I intend to take the day off or something. Things like: posting in advance in my blog/s, notifying co-workers/readers, setting vacation mails, etc. may be in order to keep my online work going smoothly.

What about you? What do you do to organise your online business when you go on holiday? What steps do you take to ensure that everything works properly, even when you’re away from your computer?
