Today is Good Friday and so far the day has lived up to its name. If for nothing else than I'm only hours away from it being the weekend.
Truthfully, the reason that it's been such a good day for me is that I'm spending lots of time playing with my new ASUS eee PC. Shawn Collins may be touting the value of his Vostro but I love, love, love my new tiny little laptop.
I first heard of the ... More

If you’re like me and didn’t make it over to London for Ad:Tech and the first-ever Affiliate Summit London then you’re probably dying to know what’s been happening in the UK this week.
I haven’t heard or read a lot of updates. Even Affiliate Summit co-founder Shawn Collins, who is a prolific blogger and poster, hasn’t had any entries on either event. And I’ve only seen a scant few updates via twitter and on Facebook. Shawn and his ... More

This week’s Affiliate Thing was all about the ladies.

Sorry for the delay in posts, but Miami is hopping with affiliate action. Many more Affiliate Summit attendees arrived on Saturday night just in time to join the crowd for the Affiliate Dinner Roast of Missy Ward and the Buy.at party in South Beach.
