I have no problem with telling how much you like something (I buy a lot of things based on other people's recommendations) or having an <a href="http://Amazon.com" rel="nofollow">Amazon.com</a> link or the like...but it's those fakey posts made up just to advertise something that annoy me. <br>Goodness knows I've plugged BlueBell Ice Cream enough that they should pay me for it ;), and I am actually a volunteer (not paid) advocate for Advanced Bionics cochlear implants, so I mention them from time to time (but more on my CI blog, <a href="http://stereophonicbionic.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://stereophonicbionic.blogspot.com/</a> ). If you go to their corporate webpage and locate their blogs, they actually link to one of my blogs there (still not paid, but I like the attention I get from being on that webpage ;) ). I draw the line, however, at advertising things I don't even know anything about just for money...people don't come to my blog to read that junk! :)JenniferWed, 26 Dec 2007 23:17:37 -0000
