Seeing your babies grow up is bittersweet. Watching my daughters scare others at our haunted house this Halloween, instead of being scared, was both fun and sad.
I feel that same conflict with PayPerPost's evolution to IZEA, being formally announc... [Read More]

Why wasn't that announced..... I don't know.... On this blog? On the Tack? Via e-mail to Posties? But I do see how the link baiting got Scoble to pick it right up and start running with it.

Hey! What happened that I had to find it out from Darren Rowse of Problogger.net that Payperpost is now IZEA. I didn't get the email. Do I even need check my spam mail or it hasn't been sent out yet?

Looks like you can see it now actually. I like how things are all coming under one umbrella. Good idea once again. Things are going to go ape tomorrow on the net. Much praise and much criticism. But each time Ted starts the buzz engine he gets things moving and he gets people talking. Also the more I think about it it was a stroke of genius to have a Postie start things off. I got pulled into the link baiting myself and posted about it as well. Good luck with this. Ted, safe journey, I'm looking forward to meeting you in Las Vegas. Keep Ashley in line. (Just kidding Ashley. It will be nice to catch back up with you again.

You crack me up! Keep-it-up and you're going to give me a bad reputation! (Ha ha ha! I'm just joking. I think, by now, everyone knows how crazy I am!)

I don't know what the big izea is, but I have some izea that it has something to do with a name change. Seriously, the "umbrella company" of PayPerPost, (which, IIRC used to be called MindComet - but that may be a separate "property", IDK), is now going to be called Izea. From what I read, (on readwriteweb.com - a story featuring my video and a link to my blog, which was very nice of them), PayPerPost will still retain its name, but the overall company that owns bloginspace, zookoda, bloggerschoiceawards, etc.) will be called Izea.
Here's the link to the Chad-tastic article.

(I had no idea I'd see me when I went to read about PPP! They even called me charming. I feel special!)

A great move on your guys' part, in my opinion!
Having one parent company will allow you guys to branch off a lot more and make new, cool tools for us to use!

I got the email, and I think this is so cool! I hope you will be making an Izea button for us to display on our blogs.
But, I googled "Izea", and the first search result is the International Zoo Educators Association! We need to get blogging about this so Izea can be at the top of those search results :)
