I love contests!! I just wrote up a blog post on Telesian’s blog about my experience with aligning marketing and sales efforts. I was lucky to have a good corporate experience back in the day…
We saw great results when marketing adopted a buy cycle methodology to supporting sales and driving campaigns. But I don’t want to give it all away here…to read more go here: http://blog.telesian.com/?p=650
Although I’m also judging and not eligible to win, here’s my contribution
“Search Engine Marketing: I Do Not Think It Means What You Think It Means”
Your entire Internet marketing strategy may be based on a mirage. As the dominance of search engines wanes, what’s going to fill the void? Think “gifts.”

Some interesting Blog posts so far. Here’s my own effort:

I hope you enjoy it.
PS – I couldn’t provide a trackback as I’m a Blogger user and Blogger doesn’t offer TrackBack functionality. I have to use DisQus for inbound trackbacks!
I did provide a link though.
Close enough, Richard. Thanks! That’s a thought-provoking article. I enjoyed it.
Just a short one, but I hope it’s widely applicable: Why just being the best isn’t good enough
Hope you guys have a great time next week. I’ll be in Houston in October you can give me the prize then….
I also couldn’t provide a trackback, but hope you like it
