These opportunities will also help establish participating bloggers as pundants that 'real world hardcopy' media have disavowed constantly. It's like the old marketing commercial: "I told two friends, and they told two friends, and so on, and so on, and so on..." Within literally hours and days, a new company marketing a unique product that has genuine value never seen before could become an overnight hit. Marketed aggressively, having this community's membership involved with third parties in this manner will push FMB in directions BlogCatalog and MyBlogLog could never touch. And the heck of it is even if they did, it'd involve money. By dealing with blogger's receiving just the product tested... ...you're keepin' it pure, and real. Really good release, Kevin.
