The PayPerPost Revolution

On September 27, 2006, members of the increasingly popular website PayPerPost (http://payperpost.com ) stormed the crowd outside of NBC’s “The Today Show” armed with t-shirt, signs, and other materials promoting their website. While this may seem a bit overwhelming for those who aren’t used to grassroots organization, PayPerPost’s effort to get out the word should be seen as a boon to bloggers. The PayPerPost canvassers documented all of the fun and hard work of their “Today” adventure at http://blog.payperpost.com/2006/09/we-storm-today-show.html .

In this video, PayPerPost staff are seen conversing with people in line at “Today” and making a real connection to those who may not even know what blogging is. For all of those who are skeptical about websites like PayPerPost and their promises of revolutionizing the blogosphere, a look at this video shows the growing sentiment among the public towards PayPerPost and other similar sites. After all, websites like PayPerPost democratize the business process, taking advertising and marketing out of the hands of stodgy advertising firms and back into the hands of the people who know how to converse with their fellow man. If other sites can match the enthusiasm, hard work, and populist appeal of a site like PayPerPost, the entire blogosphere will be mobilized to act as product reviewer, advertiser, and consumer advocate.
