Plum Crazy

Well, Blog Shares is now in beta and already has over 400 listings. I'm trying out a strategy that I hope pays off. I bought 1000 shares in two blogs that were selling for slightly more than one cent each. The first one, From Komforthaus with Love, currently is worth nothing, so that one hasn't come close to paying off. But even if I never recoup, I only lost $14.06 of fake money. The other one, Killing Time - Hk94.com, is holding steady, so it's still worth the $12.90 I paid for it. But if that sucker goes up a couple of cents, I'm doing all right.

I'd like to thank those players who bought shares in Plum Crazy too. However, noting the value of the links that I have today, it appears as if it could drop in valuation. I'll let you draw your own conclusions.

UPDATE: I read on the BlogShares home page that Seyed is getting irate e-mails. I think those people suck. The thing was in alpha until yesterday afternoon, is now in beta, and it's free, dammit! Ooh, it doesn't work perfectly. Well, if you all want something that works perfectly, make your own damn blog market. I think BlogShares is a great idea. It actively encourages bloggers to link to each other and to ping Weblogs.com. It's also just downright fun. We're all about competition, so this is another venue for bloggers to compete in. What more could a blogger want? Links, traffic, and a high share price. Go Seyed!
