I took quick trip around the John Chow dot Com community (918 members now) to see what members were talking about. This is something I enjoy doing a lot because it helps me discover blogs that I may not have noticed before. Here’s what a few community members are talking about.
Everybody Go To has an interesting article on gaming ReviewMe for hits to your website. How do you do that? You raise the price of your reviews to $750 so you show up at the top of the publisher listing. No one will order a review from you but they may look at your two star blog to see why you think it’s worth $750.

Last but not least, North x East says 42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot. I wonder if he made that up?
