• Blogg.io - Connecting Bloggers And MarketersKillerStartups.com - all January 6, 2009
  <br>What it does<br><br>Self-touted as “a pipeline between top marketers and top bloggers”, Blogio is a new online destination that intends to bring these parties together, and enable them to interact in a direct manner. <br> <br>As far as marketers are concerned, Blogio gives them access to the top100 bloggers within every given industry. These bloggers are measured employing an algorithm of its own. <br> <br>On the other hand, bloggers have ready access to relevant materials and contents, and these are presented to them according to the interests that they expressed beforehand. Something that is strongly emphasized online is that Blogio is not a pay to post program, but rather a new model that hopes to give bloggers a ready chance to improve the quality of their contents, in a dynamic way. <br> <br>The inspiration behind such a service is providing a financial model providing marketers and bloggers the chance to come up with a more fluid relationship, and (ultimately) give the blogging movement as a whole added oomph. That is certainly a very commendable objective, and all the elements for a successful web service are firmly into place. Pay the site a visit in order to draw your own conclusions.<br><br>In their own words<br><br>“Blogio is a pipeline between top marketers and top Bloggers.”<br><br>Why it might be a killer<br><br>Any tool that gives a better edge to the blogosphere is more than welcome by all concerned parties.<br><br>Some questions<br><br>How much can you earn through this system?<br><br>Link: <a href="http://www.blogg.io">http://www.blogg.io</a><br>Our Review: <a href="http://www.killerstartups.com/Web20/blogg-io-connecting-bloggers-and-marketers">http://www.killerstartups.com/Web20/blogg-io-connecting-bloggers-and-marketers</a><br><br>  <div> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=jGTkrsH3"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?d=41" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=sovWOtwk"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?d=52" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=no9NVma7"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?i=no9NVma7" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=lS4fGdVH"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?i=lS4fGdVH" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=EOWDbHi0"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?d=43" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=ssBle9Ip"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?i=ssBle9Ip" border="0"></a> </div><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/killerstartups/BkQV/~4/fIGZRJqx4yE" height="1" width="1">

• Will the Recession Mean More Traffic Tickets?TalkLeft January 6, 2009
  <p>Local governments generally deny that they use traffic tickets to raise revenue, but two economists who reviewed tickets issued in North Carolina <a href="http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/business/stories.nsf/yourmoney/story/7788F79C1BEA1C52862575360005B4AD?OpenDocument">drew conclusions</a> that tend to confirm a common suspicion: traffic tickets are more about generating dollars than public safety.</p> <blockquote>Traffic tickets go up significantly when local government revenue falls, they found. Their study showed for the first time evidence of how "local governments behave, in part, as though traffic tickets are a revenue tool to help offset periods of fiscal distress." ... <p>Controlling for other factors, a 1 percentage point drop in local government revenue leads to a roughly .32 percentage point increase in the number of traffic tickets in the following year, a statistically significant connection.</p></blockquote> <p>Rising unemployment rates also correlate with increased ticketing. As the recession pinches local budgets, expect more traffic citations to be issued. The lesson: drive carefully, don't roll through stop signs, and invest in a good radar detector.</p><div> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=XGJFQuuw"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?d=41" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=XQjn097y"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?d=43" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=LK5h7MjM"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?i=LK5h7MjM" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=IPFBwJWW"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?d=50" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=Tm886ZYz"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?d=52" border="0"></a> </div>

• Stimulus arithmetic (wonkish but important)Paul Krugman January 6, 2009
  Bit by bit we're getting information on the Obama stimulus plan, enough to start making back-of-the-envelope estimates of impact. The bottom line is this: we're probably looking at a plan that will shave less than 2 percentage points off the average unemployment rate for the next two years, and possibly quite a lot less. This [...]
