The goals and intents of Performancing going forward revolving around community and ad sales and metrics.
The surprise that is the Performancing purchase/turnaround.
Competing with Text Link Ads?
CPA Network for bloggers? Is that really effective?
Is there a new approach to blog advertising in the future of Performancing?
Keeping the Performancing brand?

1 Chris Garrett February 15, 2007 at 6:38 am: Great interview. Congrats David, Nick and Patrick
2 Random Person February 15, 2007 at 6:51 am: Nick fucks another business, screwing over loads of people on his way.

Every thing Nick touches seems to turn to shit. How long before his latest ventures fuck up and his clients regret it ?
3 David Krug February 15, 2007 at 7:27 am: I tried making it clear earlier but the site was sold to SplashPress, I merely negotiated the sale.

Journalists. :)

Thanks for the time Aaron.
4 Tony February 15, 2007 at 7:36 am: And just when I thought Technosailor was going to be sold … ;)

5 David Krug February 15, 2007 at 7:40 am: also scribefire has an e.

when did i start spellchecking?
6 Aaron Brazell February 15, 2007 at 9:24 am: Heh. Whoops on the title. Fixed, although the URL will have to stay the same. Also fixed the Scribefire plugin spelling.
7 Aaron Brazell February 15, 2007 at 9:40 am: Tony: Technosailor will still be sold, hopefully. :) Then maybe you’ll be doing the exclusive podcast. :)
8 Tony February 15, 2007 at 10:27 am: Aaron — I just have to get to start *doing* podcasts while not getting annoyed by the sound of my own voice.

But once I do, I might. ;)

Cheers
