<p>So by now you probably are all calling me a liar for not helping you learn more about marketing and <a href="http://www.timlinden.com/blog/traffic-exchanges/manual-traffic-exchange/"  class="alinks_links" title="What are manual traffic exchanges?"  >traffic exchanges</a>. Well simply put, I haven't been in the writing mood.</p>
<p>I'm not the type to just sell you when I've got nothing to say, or make up long winded emails with nothingness. So if I don't have something useful to say then I won't write.</p>
<p>Now for the challenge! If you've got a blog I challenge you to a write off. I want you to write every day something <strong>usefull</strong> to your blog. I'll attempt to do the same.</p>
<p>If you miss a day, you are out of the challenge. If I miss a day then I'll write a review about each of the people's blogs participating in the challenge.</p>
<p>Simple rules to follow:</p>
<ul>
<li>You HAVE to write a post TODAY saying you accept the challenge, and linking to this post, on your blog.</li>
<li>You have to comment on this post with a link to your challenge acceptance speech.</li>
<li>You have to personally write every post in the challenge.</li>
<li>You can queue into the future, but if you forget a day you can't post into the past. Just be a good sport and accept defeat!</li>
<li>The posts need to be useful. No splogs or slogs (spam blogs or sales blogs).</li>
<li>Sundays don't count. If you post then, great, if you don't, that doesn't count. Call me old fashioned but I think the Lord's day of rest pertains to blogging as well.</li>
</ul>

<p><img class="alignleft" title="Stefan Berg" src="http://images.startxchange.com/a/aloevera4u2.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" /> I first want to apologize for the delay in announcing the winner! I lost track of time, and almost forgot. But while on the new Surf'N'Chat on <a href="http://www.startxchange.com"  class="alinks_links" title="Free manual traffic exchange"  style="padding-right: 13px; background: url(http://maxcdn.timlinden.com/images/external_red.png) center right no-repeat;" rel="external">StartXchange</a> someone asked someone else about it, so I found out who the winner was immediately, and then waited for today to announce it!</p>
<p>And the winner is..  Stefan Berg! Congratulations! I've already been in contact with Stefan and have ordered his prefered color Flip Mino. Once it's safely in his hands, I'll immediately begin <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">spamming</span> begging him to have a guest appearance on the blog! Now he doesn't know this, but I'll let him talk to you about whatever he likes as an added bonus =P</p>
<p>And of course the winning voters are: rjcyr, marimac, topflight, bpollina, chilibeans - They each won 1,000 credits on <a href="http://www.trafficexchangelist.com/exchanges/startxchange.html?ref=xxclixxx" style="padding-right: 13px; background: url(http://www.timlinden.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/alinks/images/external.png) center right no-repeat;" title="StartXchange on Traffic Exchange List" rel="external" target="_blank">StartXchange</a> for taking the time to vote (and deal with the annoying voting process..) Next contest I hope to have a simpler way to vote, and much better details about the contests, and winner announcements much sooner =P</p>
