Of the top 50 viral videos of 2012, over three-quarters of them were funny. In a world where people ignore ads like the plague, Kmart's "Ship My Pants" ad was viewed on Youtube over 19 million times and shared thousands of times over.
The greatest compliment we can hope for as entrepreneurs is to find out what we've built actually means something, that what we're doing matters. A few days ago, a Fizzle member wrote a post in the forums titled "What I really think about Fizzle."

In the world of online and email communication, writing powerful copy makes all the difference. The sun's been down for hours and you are alone with a warm drink next to your laptop.

There may come a day when you need to switch domains. It might be that the brand name you chose years ago doesn’t properly explain what your unique selling proposition is anymore. Or maybe you are transitioning from a branded domain to a personal domain. Or vice versa.
