Cribbed Content for November 21st

Nov 21, 2008
Unfortunately, the weather has gotten me down this week and I got sick mid-week. I wasn’t able to attend the November BAAMC meeting, but here’s some other stuff I picked up this week.
- Dallas Mavericks owner and noted entrepreneur Mark Cuban was charged with insider trading on Monday. Looks like a “he said, she said” for the time being, so we’ll see how this unfolds.
- Quick thanks to Lisa Riolo and Sam Harrelson for putting me in their blog rolls!
- This ventures into last week, but there was a big spam crackdown and many affiliate marketers saw a dramatic decrease in spam. Check out the ABW thread with the discussions.
- In an Obama presidency, the weekly address is going to be done on YouTube instead of over the radio.
- I bought something from an infomercial this week. Stay tuned for it’s awesomeness. You have to admit that infomercials do work from time to time. I’m just hoping that this product is as awesome as it seems. (No, it’s not Listen Up or ShamWOW).
- Oh, and Ted Murphy from Izea is swimming around in cereal for fun. And you can win!
That’s it! Have a good weekend and get all geared up for the holiday next week!
Me, Director of Affiliate Marketing?

Yep, that’s right. As of last week I’ve resigned from PsPrint and I’m now the Director of Affiliate Marketing with New Edge Media, an awesome media agency out of Dallas, TX. I was recently in Dallas right after attending CJU and Blog World Expo to meet some coworkers, get set up, and get the ball rolling on our projects.
I’d point you to the website for my excellent new employer, however they’re so busy working their tails off for clients that the site isn’t ready yet! So for now you’ll just have to take my word that we rock

Dallas was a great new experience, as I’d only ever touched down in Texas on layovers on my way to the East coast. I’m so glad that I rented a car and opted for the Garmin navigational device – it was very cool to drive around the city after work was over just exploring and seeing what there was to see. I did have my very awesome boss Brandy drive me through the infamous Grassy Knoll where JFK was assassinated…it’s fairly unimpressive for such a significant place. There is a modest plaque on the ground inset into the grass, but she had to shut up my rambles before I missed that we were driving through.
So I tell you this, dear reader, so you’ll perhaps forgive me for slacking on my reports from CJU and Blog World Expo. I’ll get on that right away, if you’ll have me
