(1 US dollars = nearly 4 Malaysian dollars, it's obviously impossible for a poor penniless uni student like me to get an ad. I feel... so helpless, so useless.) Maybe I'll spend the rest of the month making videos praising Rocketboom's greatness in hyperbolic, Chuck Norris fact generator-esque ways to win their sympathy thus they will advertise my humble blog for free.

It's funny because my birthday's on the 13th and I was planning on being the first to place a bid to advertise on Rocketboom (as a supportive gesture, of course, knowing that I wouldn't actually win by only bidding $1000), but now that it's up to $15,000.00, it's not a wise gamble for me anymore. Wouldn't it be funny if a group of videobloggers bought the advertizing time and had Rocketboom make ads for their own shows. Heck, they've already made an homage to Ask A Ninja...

By early March this is going to be on the cover of Advertising Age and will be the biggest story in the world of advertising. Whoever wins that bid is going to reap HUGE benefit from the ancillary exposure. It will be a historical moment in the history of media as well as advertising and marketing. -- Taylor Barcroft http://www.blogger.com/profile/11159903 New Media Publisher, Editor, Video Journalist, Podcaster, Futurecaster Santa Cruz CA, Beach of the Silicon Valley URL http://FutureMedia.org RSS http://feeds.feedburner.com/FutureMedia iTunes http://tinyurl.com/8ql87 On Jan 30, 2006, at 8:44 AM, andrew michael baron wrote: Here is the link, the auction is live now: http://tinyurl.com/czs5s On Jan 28, 2006, at 6:52 PM, andrew michael baron wrote: The story you link to is the gist, but not quite right on some of the detail but here is a better example: http://pdberger.com/blogarithms-rocketboom/ http://www.whatsnextblog.com/archives/2006/01/ rocketboom_to_auction_ad_slot.asp This all happened a bit early, I'll send a link tomrrow night to the actual e-bay ad itself.
