So I was searching around, and found SnowGlobeBoy.com . I love viral marketing, and this is a great way to promote a product, service or whatever. McKinney Advertising has put together something fun for everyone. I’m not sure how long the guy s going to be in the globe, but I think it would start to suck after a while.
When I joined the chat there were so many people on there it was funny. There are 3 camera views and audio to hear the guy talk back to everyone.
Check it out!

I’m sitting in my hotel room at in Vegas right now, and decided it would be a perfect time to write about PubCon. Today was day 1, and there were a lot of exciting conferences going on. Here is my list of do’s and don’ts on day 1. I’ll post on the following days.
Day 1 Do’s:
1. Wear comfortable shows. I added insoles, but I’m not sure it was enough.
2. Take notes. There is alot of good information.
3. Make sure to attend a session early or else you stuck in the back and have to listen to people talking the whole time.
4. Bring water with your or whatever you want to drink. The vending machines are expensive.
5. Try to talk to others around you. You’d be amazed at some of the connections you can make.
Don’ts
1. Don’t bring an over sized laptop, or else you will be stuck lugging the thing around with you everywhere.
2. Don’t wear uncomfortable clothes. Although there is no real dress code that I could see, you still don’t want to dress like a slob.
3. Don’t try to attend too many sessions, it’s real easy to get burnt out.
This is all of the don’ts I can think of right now. As the days roll on, I’ll be able to post more.
Overall Day 1 Impressions:
There is some good information out there, but at the same time, some of the presenters are a little dry. I won’t name any names, but I would probably leave the session to go to another next time.
On the other hand, I will name some of the really good speakers, Rand Fishkin, Neil Patel, Andy Hagan and Todd Malicoat. I thoroughly enjoyed their presentations. Specifically Social Media, Link Buying and Link Baiting. Very good stuff and I see myself executing some new tactics in the near future.

Wow, apparently Blog Rush is the new thing.
Here is a blurb from the ‘About Us’ section of the site:
“BlogRush is a free service that was created to help bloggers solve their #1 need:
More Readers For Their Blog.
By adding the BlogRush Widget to a blog, a blogger can get instant distribution for their latest blog post titles across a network of related blogs.
BlogRush users earn “syndication credits” (the right to have their blog post titles shown inside a widget on another related blog) based on their own traffic (loads of the widget) as well as the traffic of other users they refer to BlogRush. Users can automatically refer others to BlogRush via special links on the widget, as well as through the promotion of a special referral URL they are given.
BlogRush is a “Cooperative Syndication Network” that rewards its users for their contributions to the network — from the impressions they provide of the BlogRush Widget to the referral of other users through 10 ‘generations’ of activity and the impressions of the widget that they provide. BlogRush was designed to be incredibly viral and to provide its users with tremendous distribution leverage to receive exposure for their blog content (onto related content blogs) that they could never achieve on their own; at least without a massive advertising budget.
BlogRush is the brainchild of Internet entrepreneur, John Reese. Mr. Reese is the founder and CEO of Income.com, a soon to be launched social network and media company for entrepreneurs. BlogRush is the first Web property of the Income.com Network, a network of sites and services to help entrepreneurs and business owners succeed. Income.com is based in Orlando, Florida.”
