Exactly Arvind. At this point it is still an innovative approach, hopefully by this time next year it will be commonplace. When I talk to music labels about my '100 CDs for 100 Bloggers' promotion, I stress to them that the FIRST label to execute this promotion is going to make serious waves among bloggers because a label hasn't yet had a mass-targetted promotion aimed at bloggers such as this. As with any new idea, few businesses are willing to 'chance' trying it out. Then one does, they have great success with it, and everyone jumps on the bandwagon. “bloggers gratitude to the first movie to embrace them perhaps will diminish once they all do…”

I wonder if that is sustainable though, bloggers gratitude to the first movie to embrace them perhaps will diminish once they all do...

I'm a fan of Michael Mann's and was planning to see MV - but I've been galvanized by this effort and hopefully my readers are, too. And of course I'd welcome the Universal rep to comment on my blog. But of course then I'd have his name and contact info just like Chris does :) Thanks for the link(s), Mack, and for the Spartacus-like rallying of your forces in support of this excellent story.

This late in the game, I would think it would hard to organize this quickly. I think what WE as the blogging community can do is make a point to thank Universal for their reaching out to one of our own by giving this story the attention it deserves. We trumpet every company mis-step with bloggers,(see the Dell blog), why can't we turn around and devote the same amount of time and attention to a company that reaches out to embrace the blogging community? I think we owe it to the companies that do reach out to us, and ultimately, we owe it to ourselves. If all companies hear from bloggers are complaints every time they attempt to join our space, we'll eventually scare all of them off. Universal got it right, and we need to make sure that their efforts are rewarded. Jordan I wouldn’t come down too hard on Universal if they didn’t have bloggers at the premiere.

Were Universal to post a thank-you on all the linking blogs, they'd be lionized in our community. Hopefully marketers start picking up on the fact that we're possibly the most easily engaged audience in the world! Not that we're desperate or anything... :] Mack -

Thanks for the link, Mack, and for making me part of something truly big. Kudos to you on rallying the troops and making it happen. CK, what do we do if bloggers aren't present at the MV premiers??
