Last week I wrote about why the Inbox is bad for Entrecard.  What I didn’t talk about is what should replace it.  Sure, lists of bookmarks like mine work great, but what about bloggers without lists?  People have come to expect some type of guide on whom to drop.  Read on for my solution. Currently the inbox [...]

Picture of Entrecard caught in the act!  OK now, all these Entrecard accusations are getting a bit silly.  So why not join in the silliness? Plurk This Post Buzz This Post Delicious Digg This Post Ping This Post Reddit This Post Stumble This Post

The inbox located on the Entrecard Dashboard is a relatively recent change.  In the past you only saw the last 20 or so droppers in an RSS feed.  The inbox currently shows you all the people who have dropped cards on you.  This change in the way the inbox works has created many problems for Entrecard.  [...]

J-Donuts is a frequent poster to the Entrecard forums and always says silly things.  Today was no different when he ranted “that way I can go powerdropping to my hearts content without affecting someone else’s AdSense CTR”.  What he meant is that CTR is one aspect taken into consideration of Google Adsense’s Smart Pricing.  Smart Pricing is when Google [...]

Several posts in the Entrecard forums appeared recently by people who question the Entrecard economy.  They complain they can get the same traffic from Project Wonderful or elsewhere for less.  I won’t be reviewing Entrecard today, but I’d like to address this one issue.  I’m waiting for their official announcement of new changes some time next week before [...]

It’s been a long time since I last published a list of my favorite WordPress plugins. Half a year later have my tastes changed?  Yes, as have my needs.  I check for new plugins daily, always on the lookout for something better.  These days I use 20 plugins, not all of them activated.  Here are my [...]

One month ago I reviewed the Clickbooth Network and figured it was about time to report on the results.  For thirty days I ran a 460×80 banner under the first post of my site and a rotating 125×125 ad next to my Entrecard.   The ads were shown 18,875 times.  Total number of clicks was 685.  Total number [...]

Graham from Entrecard has left a number of hints around the forum who the new mystery partner is.  The announcement is supposed to be so big it will change Entrecard forever.  “This partnership isn’t a money play, but damnit you are all going to love it.” Let’s examine the clues and see if we can guess. [...]

Entrecard.com has begun buying back credits from members for $7.50 per 1000.  What effect does this have on the average Entrecarder? A more balanced playing field.  Some of the “top” blogs got there by buying credits, not by quality of their writing or popularity. Ad prices will drop in half.  That prediction isn’t so dramatic as [...]

The Good The Bad Easy to install. Widget comes in various sizes. Takes minimal time. Different. Confusing. WTH is a guide, a stage, a meeting, and a connection? Only in beta, so limited traffic Scoutle.com makes me wonder if I missed something in translation. This Dutch social networking site features a widget of two people [...]
