Awesome geeky and Internet spoof of chart topping Jay-Z and Alicia Keys “Empire state of mind.” Click, watch and enjoy. If thats doesn't fill your boots then there’s always the Paid Search 101 rap which was posted way back in 2007 but still good for a laugh :) Thanks Paul
The mention of an Affili.net application store in this week’s A4UExpo newsletter caught my eye so off I went to check it out. Perhaps it’s completely slipped me by but this was the first I’d heard of their application store and a quick browse around threw up some little gems. Either way it got me thinking.

Much has been said about the recent merger of Buy.at and Affiliate Window so I won’t dwell on the topic too much other to say massive congratulations to Affiliate Window in what is undoubtedly a shrewd acquisition and to Buy.at for escaping the clutches of AOL who have reportedly lost millions on the sale.

Cookies... Love ‘em or hate ‘em, they form a core building block of many of the technical platforms that underpin affiliate marketing.

If like me you’ve been a victim of online fraud then you’ll no doubt understand and appreciate the good work and effort from the people behind Fraud Prevention Week which if you didn’t know already was taking place this week (12th – 18th October).

An interesting spin on the much debated voucher code sector caught my eye today and goes under the name of CouponFollow.

Better still, site users and twitter followers are...
