Josh, you highlight good points about using video and telling a story. Would you recommend a maximum time for a promotional/story telling video? By the way, I recommend getting the plugin called "subscribe to comments". I wrote about it here http://nine95.com/what-is-the-value-of-a-comment/. It is worth the 5 mins it will take to install it.

Ha, I'd love to hear a bag balm story. Perhaps I should ask that street vendor if he'd like to sponsor my blog… Interesting thought there, ha.

Advertising rarely works with me but when it does, it's exactly how you stated. I'm more inclined to buy when there is a story that goes with the product. Cool blade by the way. I could tell a story about Bag Balm (my corporate sponsor) but that wouldn't make an appropriate story.

Geez, no doubt. When are you going to stick it to the man and start enjoying the Internet anytime you want?

I don't think I would try. Not worth the risk for a $15 trinket. Whats the crime rate like there, seems pretty tranquil?

Definitly don't try importing anything more than a penknife into New Zealand or Austraila – it will be more than embarassing I can tell you for sure! I think you will find theser are illegal pretty much anywhere in the first world excpet the US!

I hadn't heard that one but it is sure true. I am definitely keeping that one in the catalogue upstairs
