.: November 2006 --> It's a topsy-turvy world

It's a topsy-turvy world

» It's so weird. I just received a press release from Time magazine detailing a feature in their magazine that apparently they want me to link. And with that, it seems to me we've crossed a line somewhere.

Well, isn't that flattering? I mean it shows that they are respecting the volume of traffic, and contribution to information, that you are providing.

I can understand your alarm, and your reticence, but just to put me out of my misery, and without necessarily actually giving it the link love, which story was it?

They have no idea how much traffic I have - and it's not enough to warrant their interest, I can assure you. I suspect its a blind mailing to a large number of bloggers. I will give them this: the article they pitched was actually interesting to me, which is almost never the case with these press releases.

Oh, I'm linking it later this week. :)
