OMG Affiliate Network flog smut
As a web content type, I know it can be hard to ensure your copy is correct and error-free: hell, I’m sure that once I’ve posted this I’ll spot some typos.
Anyhoo, at least I didn’t get it quite as bad as whoever is responsible for sending out the OMG Affiliate Network newsletter:

Site review: Virgin Holidays ‘Weddings’ section
Hello! I’ve not written a scathing review of a website for a while, so I thought I’d drop this little gem on you.
For one reason and another, I was recently forced inclined to look for more information regarding weddings abroad – specifically in the Caribbean. Drop ‘caribbean wedding‘ into Google, and the Virgin Holidays (www.virginholidays.co.uk) brand appeared top of the results. Having worked for Mr Branson in the past (and generally thinking his products are pretty good), I went and had a look.
How did I get on? Was the site virginal, or did it more resemble a loose woman of the night? Read on…
2New startup: “What Do I Do With This?”
Sorry about the radio silence: been working on something quite interesting in the background, and it’s now pretty much ready to rock!
Introducing “What Do I Do With This?” (www.whatdoidowiththis.com), a site dedicated to recycling/reusing surplus building and decorating material. Designed to be used by both individuals and trades alike, it’s aim is to help reduce waste and help people find the building materials they want at a lower-than-retail price.
It’s literally only had the bubblewrap pulled of it last night, so there’s no content on it yet…but there’s a parternship strategy in the wings that will hopefully solve that.
In the meantime, if you or anyone you know has any spare paint, wallpaper or similar surplus DIY-related gubbins they don’t know what to do with – point them to www.whatdoidowiththis.com.
Any feedback or comments welcome.
