My day job company is currently running a free giveaway promotion, and I thought I’d tell you guys about it. Now, the prize structure is fairly limited compared to many of the contests I’ve seen out there, but this contest will have a lot less entries… so your chances of winning are much higher.
The prizes […]

With all the “make money online” courses flying around out there, it’s a miracle that we’re not all super rich yet… or is it?
Well, a few months back, I stumbled upon a website where people share and jointly purchase all these high priced “guru” training programs. Now you’d think, “surely people who can access even […]

Apparently we had some good stuff to say back when we were updating this blog every day. Despite the fact that we haven’t been posting on a very regular basis, we have still been maintaining a regular RSS readership of about 40…(except for today because Google is having their feedfetcher problems again).
So, Jay and I […]

When I woke up this morning, I was greeted by a brand new comment on the blog… which is always exciting, but sadly this one turned out to be garbagio. Can you spot why this is spam:

When an obvious marketing plant like this, which is by the way a crap article can make it to page one of Digg and quality content like our indepth coverage of the same thing (1 , 2 , 3 , 4) several months ago of the same topic goes nowhere…
My only regret is […]

Okay, so it’s not that bad… but here is another case where time has proven Jay right again. Here’s a little story about building reputations with an example. As we mentioned earlier, we met Adam Lasnik: “search evangelist”, at SES Toronto, and were able to talk to him about our Classified Ad site problem. He […]

I’m going to be going a little off topic here, and this will probably resonate with our Canadian readers a bit more than our neighbors to the south. Yesterday, Telus and Bell (two of the three major cellular service providers here in Canada) announced they are talking about merging.
Obviously this hasn’t gone by government review […]

Nothing in particular today…
It may be the heat (air conditioner isn’t installed until tomorrow) but right now, I’ve convinced myself that Shoemoney and Darren Rowse were separated at birth.
Observe:
1. They are both successful online
2. They both wear glasses
3. They both have a blog
4. Their blogs are both in the top 200 on Technorati
5. I […]

So, do you love it? Hate it? Have suggestions on improving it? Let me know!
P.S. We’ll be rolling out an unbranded copy of this template […]
