The Internet fame “arch” is short. It peaks quickly and drops as thunderously. But I didn’t need to tell you that, did I?

I love that this article is working the circles (thanks Maruhlynne). Seems the FTC is so keen on stopping companies from manipulating bloggers, they’re making the companies liable for stuff bloggers write if they get a free sample. Or wait- here’s another idea.

I agree with Charlie Todd and Kiddsock.
I agree with, Charlie.
I agree with Kevin, Kevin
