Is it OK for me to contact him to get him to do the brandjacking thing on mysite? I didn’t understand how we can get him to do it.

It’s Seth’s way of getting money and nothing but money. He just didn’t care to see if it has a good effect on the brand and the consumer as well.

Do you consider Alltop.com and Guy Kawasaki a scraper?

Lovely Post! I am one of the biggest admirers of Seth Godin. I’ve improved most of my marketing techniques reading his blog. If you don’t know Seth Godin, then you are just a newbie.

I do agree with what Seth says about constantly getting contacted by brands and being told to ‘take it down’ (re the content). Sorry guys, sue me.

Ryan, that was actually a really good point. I cant stand the garbage that Mahalo scrapes together with bots and says they are human made.

I thought of this post, and the backlash Seth Godin received when he announced Brands In Public, while reading some posts about Google Sidewiki. I can’t help but think that Google’s new product is so much worse for ORM than Brands In Public ever could have been. And I wonder if Google will have the good sense to can 86 Sidewiki before the comment spam gets out of hand.

Apparently, it’s already being used to falsely label people as pedophiles and other unseemly things. Pretty short sighted of Google.

If someone else would have done this, it would probably not become such a big topic of discussion.. and if that person would have fixed it after this.. people would have rather said good things about him.

We must accept that Seth is just as humane.. and everyone wants to make money.. he did something which majority don’t agree with, and he fixed it. I guess we should let it go now.

He has really been very kind with his knowledge, and I am sure there are far more easier ways he would have made more money than by doing this hq thing.. i am not very sure if it was for money..

i still love Outspoken Media.. i still respect Seth Godin
