Enjoy  the Fun , the money and The Upcoming Weekend Everyone.

In the last 2 days I have read 2 articles by MAJOR news outlets where the overall theme is that blogging and in particular paid blogging can be harmful to your health and mental well being.

To say the least I found this disturbing. I’m not going to to link to the one I saw today - I don’t want them to gain more readers of this garbage.

Instead I want to get a little positive energy swirling around and announce a new contest for members of our Payu2blog Network.

Announcing :

Blogging Makes Me Happy Contest! from Payu2blog

I will be posting the details in the system later today.

Here is the High Level

• You will not be paid for entering-
• only the TOP 5 Chosen will win…
• each of the Winners will recieve $500.00 each.
• $500 seems like a nice enough number for this……
• The winners will be voted on by random people on the street(we are going to ask people in to view the entries) and everyone in our office.
• Everyone Will not win.. so please if you don’t win stay postive and wait til we have another contest of this type… I think for sure more are going to happen this year.

Will it end up like this????

For Lynn its to be Dave

VS.

For Heather its Keith

Let the Games Continue!!

Dave vs. Keith!!!!

Next Up Drawing for the event!!!

A friend sent me this article with the title blogging bad in the subject… As I read through the article I realized he could be onto something… with all the negative backlash about paid blogging and people trying (ridiculously) to make it some sort of moral issue, Could this article in the NY Times be just another sneaky way for some big media companies (you pick one) to discourage the little guy (paid bloggers) from disrupting their “cash flow Cow” of advertising fees?

Some may laugh but it could be…

Here is an excerpt :

“To be sure, there is no official diagnosis of death by blogging, and the premature demise of two people obviously does not qualify as an epidemic.”

Wow! There is sure nothing like talk of death to scare people away… I guess it’s not only immoral for you to make money on your own- with your own blog- but now you risk death accd. to the article…

Maybe they were trying to do some good here but I can’t help but think the whole article is completely absurd and/ or it really is some sort of anti paid blogging agenda PR piece. What do you think?

The next 2 at home participants are………..
