Over at the Web Strategy Blog we covered two WordPress ReTweet plugins today. This is a great way to drive Twitter traffic to your WordPress blog.

We cover TweetMeme’s ReTweet Plugin and BackType TweetCounter plugin.
In case you are wondering – we are using TweetMeme’s button here and BackType’s button over at Web Strategy Workshop. Which is better? We are leaning towards BackTypes…

There’s been all kinds of drama lately about the impending ReTweet.com and how it’s pretty much blatantly copying TweetMeme. It’s gotten to the point where TweetMeme is set to sue ReTweet. This is all very silly but it’s quite apparent that not only is ReTweet ripping off TweetMeme’s idea but even copying their code.
With a little easy digging it is very easy to check out what ReTweet.com will be – aside from the killer domain.
Go to http://174.129.2.195/meme/top/index/ and check out what they are working on. It’s definitely strikingly similar.
But really – who cares?

I recently decided to try MySpace myAds platform for a targeted advertising campaign. I also wanted to compare click through and conversion rates with Facebook. And with a $75 MySpace MyAds coupon from ShoeMoney it was a no brainer. Who doesn’t like free advertising?
Well after waiting approximately 6 days for my ad to go through the approval process – my ad was declined.
The advertisement in your campaign for account abrudtkuhl was reviewed to ensure that it complies with our editorial guidelines. We would like you to know that your ad was not accepted for the following reason: No twitter ads.
There are two problems here – the amount of time it took to get the ad approved (6 days – seriously?) and the unknown editorial guidelines that caused my ad to get rejected.
So far – disappointed with the MyAds platform.
