Hi Dan,

Thanks for adding to the conversation. There have been mixed reviews around the topic in the blogosphere but I still think it's a bad idea to pay bloggers against a few kind words, and call me naive, I don't think bloggers would want to place irrelevant content on their blogs.

I do however believe that we will increasingly see bloggers getting 'hired' by PR/marketing agencies to blog or vlog on their behalf, very much like you would get a celeb to endorse your PR campaign.

This to me is a transparent, and perfectly acceptable way of getting around the whole paying bloggers against a few kind word issue…
