I'm sphinning this because you put yesterdays discussion to use in a way that relates to your service. Two celebrities in a row could get old fast on your subscribers, may want to mix in some other topics, even though the appraoch is irrisistably effective.

Thanks for the feedback planetc1. I agree with you. I think the audience will (is already) sick of seeing Britney Spears on SEO blog headlines, and rightly so.

I indulged myself to do it one more time though because I was seduced by the exponential viral success of Chris Crocker, and the way in which viral buzz and search engine marketing are not creating a synergy in this case.

It's almost like it could not have happened otherwise. If Chris Crocker would have been strategising his viral campaign he probably wouldnt have been so spontaneous, reducing drastically the viral effect of his videos.

I find it thrilling.

Unfortunetely he has an audience that does not apply to me (and many of us). No offense but ads shown to me by gay would not really appeal to me as I'm a (straight) man.
