Hmm… Not making him famous. Making him infamous :)

I’ve never heard of Ashwin before, now are we making him very famous?

Hey dude, thanks for including the backlink in spite of your disagreement with the Ashwin Khanna Revenge Contest! You do make a lot of fair points in this post, it’s well written. Hope I don’t lose you or your fans as readers, and I appreciate the constructive criticism . . .

Hari,

You make very good points. My thought was the same when reading about it. Links back to him? That benefits…him. Besides, Technorati’s new ranking system only counts the number of links you’ve received in the last 6 months. If everyone removes their links, in 6 months Ashwin will be back to having nada.

Best,

Brennan

Hi Emma,
I like Contest Blogger too and their oath to transfer the prizes won to its readers. Just, didn’t like this contest.
And, the reason you mentioned for not entering Ashwin’s contest is the same as mine.

Thanks for the comment, by the way.

I like contest blogger and I get a lot of useful information from it. I didn’t fall for Ashwins trick, it just seemed to good to be true. I didn’t want to promote something so lame on my site.

It’s kind of early, so I’m not sure how I feel about contest bloggers proposal. But you do make some good points. I always like people who are actually willing to speak their mind and have an opinion. Nice Blog, by the way!
