I looked briefly at the site and it gave me a headache. I’m not sure I can join anything else right now. Someone else suggested Twitter– honestly, I need a few weeks at a spa.

I’m interested in your further Entrecard adventures. It sounds like more my thing than Twitter right now.

Eventually, the sites that hire the lowest-paid writers will fold, because you get what you pay for, and when you only buy crap, you’ll lose your audience. Because the audience isn’t stupid. It’ll take longer than we all like, but then we add a higher aggravation fee when they come crawling back.

Becky, that may have been where I saw it. Thanks!

Catherine, thank you for the Entrecard explanation. I’m still on the fence, but it’s going to stay there for now. 🙂

I’m scared to link to it since I don’t know if Google frowns on links within comments, but you should check it out. I think they posted it on the 4th, 5th, something like that. Recently. But seriously, the comment board had some VERY strong opinions on this one, and you might like reading it.

Multiple drops are sometimes caused – as far as I can tell – by people getting an ‘invalid’ the first time so refreshing the page and doing it again. And then of course there are eejits like myself who forget who they’ve already dropped with.
Spontaneous Derivation (http://www.spontaneousderivation.com) has a great post about the benefits of Entrecard from a fairly unbiased perspective.

I like your blog, by the way, and I wouldn’t have found you without Entrecard. And I will probably will leave more meaningful comments in the future!
