Announcement:

I am officially joining certain networks of the blogging communities. At times, I may be invited to write certain reviews and so on for certain advertisers for a small fee. However, I will be careful with what I write and choose something I believe in.

I have been thinking about blog and commercialization - yes, advertisers are there and I have some small offers. Blogs are, right now, still an new platform for marketing, and I believe it has potential to take over some traditional media. So then if an advertiser asks me if I can write a review or do a small advert for him or her, do I say no?

I guess well, it depends on the product. I will not promote things I personally do not believe in. I guess it is all about integrity and that is the promise to my readers.
