Joel, To be truthful I don't think it was any type of marketing of the type we see today. I came across it while looking through some tens of thousands of dead end financial links. By dead end I mean a lack of the interactivity I thought should be available through so many interconnected computers. There were the online discount brokers but I saw this as just an extension of what we already knew and nothing new insofar as originality. Well I guess boredom doesn't last long because there was e-gold like a flash of brilliance. Funny how things pop up just when you need them. I couldn't sell a glass of water to a billionaire lost in the desert so why try? I can sympathize with e-gold's position about marketing in a similiar way. It's GOLD for crying out loud. Everybody wants it in the first place, in the second place it's not exactly hiding under a mountain like a mute earthworm. If I had come across in some type of marketing campaign or whatever I would have been immediately suspicious as would Bill Gates if he saw me trotting up with a glass of water while he crawled on all fours. I may be optomistic but I don't think e-gold really needs marketing. It always seems to come off as another Gold this or superlative gold that if you're not careful and detracts from the fact that it is just a simple and painless way to exchange gold. In my mind anyway. A user's point of view. Spammers come from another world. That's why no one understands them.
