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.

Why don't you ask the small business administration?

LinkedIn Answers might also be good for it. Although I bet eMarketer has the number.
