R2000 sounds like far too much to be spending&lt;br&gt;on something like this. I think you would be better off running your own pay&lt;br&gt;per click campaigns on sites like google. With that sort of budget, i reckon&lt;br&gt;you would go pretty far.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2009/5/31 Disqus &amp;lt;&amp;gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">thescott</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 May 2009 09:28:10 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: BlackNotes</title><link>http://blacknotes.co.za/post/52885281#comment-2819060</link><description>&lt;p&gt;brilliant!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">thescott</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 03 Oct 2008 06:12:55 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Business on the Couch</title><link>http://blog.babazeka.com/?p=290#comment-1104317</link><description>&lt;p&gt;the ultimate office chair for sure!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">thescott</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 05 Aug 2008 15:09:57 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: BlackNotes</title><link>http://wezzo.tumblr.com/post/44820084#comment-1103116</link><description>&lt;p&gt;jolie, thurman, one of the desperate housewives (the blonde one), and umm, no idea, maybe carmen electra?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">thescott</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 05 Aug 2008 13:16:32 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Oppikoppi on m.24.com, an opportunity lost?</title><link>http://www.scott.za.net/niched-mobile-social-networks-oppikoppi-on-m-24-com_2008-08-05/#comment-1100912</link><description>&lt;p&gt;look forward to seeing you guys there!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2008/8/5 Disqus &amp;lt;&amp;gt;:&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">thescott</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 05 Aug 2008 09:45:11 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Oppikoppi on m.24.com, an opportunity lost?</title><link>http://www.scott.za.net/niched-mobile-social-networks-oppikoppi-on-m-24-com_2008-08-05/#comment-1100333</link><description>&lt;p&gt;as far as Mr. Norman suggested at the 27 dinner&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2008/8/5 Disqus &amp;lt;&amp;gt;:&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">thescott</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 05 Aug 2008 08:28:08 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Oppikoppi on m.24.com, an opportunity lost?</title><link>http://www.scott.za.net/niched-mobile-social-networks-oppikoppi-on-m-24-com_2008-08-05/#comment-1100267</link><description>&lt;p&gt;absolutely. no point in building something that can't be reused.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;looking fwd to seeing what speakerbox is all about.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2008/8/5 Disqus &amp;lt;&amp;gt;:&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">thescott</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 05 Aug 2008 08:20:06 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Oppikoppi on m.24.com, an opportunity lost?</title><link>http://www.scott.za.net/niched-mobile-social-networks-oppikoppi-on-m-24-com_2008-08-05/#comment-1100010</link><description>&lt;p&gt;agree, although to be honest, i think that with a little education on&lt;br&gt;the oppikoppi site, people will pick it up quickly. But maybe the&lt;br&gt;twitter idea was a bit premature.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the other thing to consider of course, is that all this might not fit&lt;br&gt;into the way oppikoppi want to be. they might want to keep it old&lt;br&gt;school and limit tech as much as possible.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2008/8/5 Disqus &amp;lt;&amp;gt;:&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">thescott</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 05 Aug 2008 07:29:19 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Converse blog &amp;#8211; thoughts</title><link>http://www.scott.za.net/converse-blog-thoughts_2008-04-29/#comment-628196</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Thanks Deshanta,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;will certainly take a look!
