I got a bit grouchy in my last post, but I will say that Blogitive accepted it. So I've got to give kudos to them for meaning it when they say you don't have to write something positive. And the same thing to the sponsor. It's one thing to know you're signing up for something where people can write rotten things about your company. It's another to have them actually written.

And finally, to the people who have a problem with this form of advertising, I would say that this is proof of how it's supposed to work. I try to find something nice about the sponsor, but in some cases, I disagree with them. And yet, I'm still able to put my true feelings. Opponents argue that there is no transparency. But I told you right off the bat that it was sponsored, and then I told you that I didn't like it. I don't know how it gets any more transparent than that.

And no, Blogitive didn't ask me to write this, nor are they paying me to do so (although I won't argue with them if they want to- lol). It's a credit where credit is due situation. :D
