A compromise of sorts
Attention today.com politics and news blogs - Make sure you go to the VIP forums and vote for Political Animal who has been nominated for the March blog of the month.
Okay down to business, well sort of at least.
A lot of people have been wondering what’s going on with entrecard. I’ve been hesitant to give answers that were asked in my last post because it was kind of a confusing subject for me as well.
Well, today in the forums the admins announced that we can indeed keep our entrecard widgets on our blogs and can continue to drop away. However we are not allowed to accept paid advertisements.
I want to thank the today.com staff and the entrecard staff for listening to all of the today.com bloggers concerns and working something out. This is a good compromise that allows all sides to get what they want. I’m not sure if I’ll remain as active as I was with entrecard (likely no more 300 drop days), but I will definitely keep the widget up and continue to visit my favorite blogs.
Thanks for the update. I get alot of traffic from Entrecard, but it has slowed to nothing since all this began. I am happy to hear about the latest news.
I dumped EC and I think I’m going to probably keep it dumped. I can’t see myself spending any time using something that’s going to get me minimal traffic that doesn’t count toward payment here.

I don’t need entrecard to find you my friend but thanks for the update. It does semm to be a reasonable compromise.
Wow, I don’t know what’s up with your ads (I know you have nothing to do with them). I just saw one asking if I was sorry I’d voted for Obama.
I wish politicians would stop worrying about trying to undermine the elected president and would get to work helping to fix the mess he inherited.
Thanks for the plug Guitar! I will extend you the same courtesy the next time you get nominated.
I am not aware of the entrecard or what service it offers but if it is helpful to my fellow writers I am glad it is workingnow!
