Guerrilla Marketing
Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later. I got my first BlogShares advertisement last night. Someone gifted me 5 shares of a worthless stock last night, and the accompanying email said "I like the way you do business. South Dakota thanks you." Of course I had to go look and see what sort of porn ad-infested popup hell the site in question was. Strangely enough, it wasn't. I'm not quite sure what the point was (except maybe to drive traffic), but it was an interesting technique, to be sure. In other news, the SLF(Special Lady Friend) and I are going to see A Mighty Wind tonight. I thought Best In Show was one of the better movies I've seen, so I have high expectations for this one.
