Greg, I suspect that ‘fan’ was aiming that particularly snidy comment at Glen. I also suspect that he feels rather silly after forgetting to surf through a proxy. Cheers, Ry.

Fan :
You are so full of shit !

Really? Not sure what prompted that. I was always under the impression I was a quart low.

I follow a Buzz conversation a million times easier than a simple tweet that gets lost in the noise.

You don’t think a follow algorithm (Friend rank) is in play?

Honestly, who would be so idiotic as to put a space between the last word of a sentence and an exclamation point?

The quality of education must be sub-standard in Belfast.

I’m a big fan of Google’s social tools these days. Makes it smoking easy to both communicate and broadcast.

To me communicating is 1-on-1 via email, chat and now Buzz.

I view broadcasting as sharing resources. I share and syndicate my Reader/Buzz items with the public.

99% of the stuff I share is OPC and “occasionally” I’ll share something personal.

I do this for 2 reasons -

- “link love” for the author’s content. The Reader strips nofollow.

- Building content interest/authority

I think the new human equation that Google has implemented into the algorithm, treating followers as links, is giving us a glimpse of how web authority will viewed/attained in the future.

I’m looking forward to the ride!

To communicate socially, yes. To promote, no. Simply put!

I had to read this 3 times – then I got it. I suppose they write for pleasure. Or rather I presume. I know a woman that’s a wonderful writer and she does it because she needs to. It’s a form a creative release. She doesn’t make a cent. I’m going with self-fulfilling.

I think people need to ask themselves this question: “Are you getting paid (in cash or in free product) to write a review regardless of whether or not you make a sale?”

If the answer is ‘no’ then it makes sense that you won’t be running afoul of the the FTC rules.
