I read somewhere a long time ago - probably from Seth Godin - about the power of storytelling in marketing. I like this apporach. And now that I've finally got my own blog, I think what ties my otherwise disparate topics together is that I try to tell a story... The really cool thing about blogging (that I didn't count on) is that it makes you a better writer and a better story teller. And stories have been with us since the <a href="http://bloggerluv.com/do-you-blog-like-a-caveman/">dawn of man</a>. Thanks for your comment here - and on <a href="http://donpower.me/blog-tips/the-secret-to-a-successful-blog-write-and-promote-repeat-guest-post/">James' Guest Post</a> too! See you around the posts! - Don Hey Josh!

Ha. I could think of much better ways to drive traffic and interest in a site that actually benefit the community as a whole vs trying to start a flame war. Its the same reason debating sucks, you never convince people that your way is right by beating them over the head with your point of view. Drama rarely works, and never ends well. .-= The Real Josh´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.joshwhitford.com/2010/01/11/develop-a-story-in-order-to-sell-more-products/">Develop A Story In Order To Sell More Products</a> =-.

Instead he chooses to do something stupid to try a "quick fix" and in the end it's only going to hurt him. Everyone knows that a successful blog takes time and consistent effort. That's basically it when it comes to building something up. You do need traffic to your blog that is loyal and is going to comment on what you have to say. However, without content and promoting what you have you're not going to get there. .-= Eric´s last blog ..<a href="http://bluepop13.com/2010/01/08/social-media-training-lab-wasnt-too-good-to-be-true/">Social Media Training Lab Wasn’t Too Good To Be True</a> =-.

I commented on the jerk's blog - which is what inspired me to write this post once the guy CONFIRMED he was doing it as an experiment. I visted his blog once or twice since to see if he would change his tune and apologize (he didn't) and based on some raw observation, I see that he got about 1/100th the amount of comments as ExtremeJohn got. So, although this guy's little experiment had a very clear, measureable result, I'm certain that ExtremeJohn and me have MUCH more friends and follwers now and that 'pecker dude has much less! But above ALL of the numbers - what got me most is an unrepentant FALSE ACCUSATION. That kind of thing just makes my teeth grind! And now, you've got a new follower too!
