Blogging scares news corporations and the entertainment industry, and it keeps getting better. Now, with the Internet, people like to entertain themselves, and become their own stars. YouTube and social networking sites are having a powerful effect on how money is made – it’s becoming more about the people and less about the huge corporations. We live in a world of shallow, self-serving people festering in lustful greed – isn’t that just wonderful?
Why should I watch only TV when I can watch free stuff? Wouldn’t it be cool, if the big corporations paid us, rather than the other way around? Corporations are paying people to have their logo tattooed on their bodies! That is insane. I will only wear generic clothes and shoes from now on. It’s funny how we pay for name brands. All we’re really doing is paying some corporation so we have the privilege to advertise for them! What? They should pay us for that. I’m going to start wearing blank t-shirts like this:

The T-shirts are $25.00 each, use the contact form above and drop me an e-mail to order.
I think of my blog as my home. What about you? Many blogs are businesses, others are personal and so forth. When you put your Technorati authority, Alexa ranking and Google page rank on the face of your blog, what exactly are you trying to say? Would you put such information on your clothes, car or even your home? I see a page rank widget on a blog and I’m thinking, this person probably wears clothes with price tags hanging off of them. It’s a little tacky when you think about it.
Would you hang an offensively tasteless sign like this in front of your house?:

Think about how easy it is to pump up your Technorati authority with meme’s and link chains. This would be like a person wearing a fake Rolex watch. Look…I’m wearing a Rolex! Why not have a fake price sticker of $27,000.00 on it too? That way people know how valuable you are. It’s all pretty silly when you think about it. I don’t display any of these rankings on my blog. I uninstalled my pagerank toolbar too because I don’t like the idea of immediately judging every site I see. Do you do that? Do you immediately check ranking when you go to a new site? If not, than why bother with even looking or having stats pasted all over your blog? It’s just something to think about. The truth is, I could care less how much money you make or how popular your blog is; it has nothing to do with me reading or coming back. I actually look for people who are friendly, that can write cool stuff, are fun or having something other to offer than just making money or gaining something for themselves. Here’s a cool way to make money after you die:

Blogging is changing the web and the way things work in nearly every part of society – or I should say the Internet itself is changing everything. So I ask you, would you have a Pepsi tattoo inked on your forehead for the right price? I would. The price is 10 million in gold bullion.
