Where do you ask business related questions to get answered?
I am wondering what the aggregate amount of money small businesses spend on advertising in America is. Does anybody know the answer, where I could find that information, or where I could find people who would know. Thanks in advance.

If you're a college student, a great resource is are the librarians at your libraries. Their job includes having a grasp on where to find this kind of information.
For one off questions of this type, I find yahoo answers and ask metafilter to be great. I personally don't know where you would start, but someone on those sites probably does.
eMarketer has it http://www.emarketer.com/SiteSearch.aspx?arg=small+business+...
If you contact me through my blog (altgate.com) I can track that number down for you...
LinkedIn Answers might also be good for it. Although I bet eMarketer has the number.
Why don't you ask the small business administration?
