By now, Poetree.coop has probably been shut down.
While it lasted, it was the best-designed, richest source of p2p poetry sharing available online. Only a typical lunk-headed heavy-handed ploy by the inner circle of poets was able to shut it down.

"The issue of “the cobblers children” is a very real one for any
organization, especially those who make money by aligning talent to
client work. How can we service clients to the best of our abilities
while making sure we don’t neglect our own development? There are a few
examples that I always like to use whenever I get into discussion of
this topic. Like many of you I’m sure, I am a big fan of I…

Happy birthday, Chuck! (Converse turns 100. I wore my high tops way back when until they were ripped) (via The Washington Post)
This is a guest post from Leo Babauta of Zen Habits, a blog about simplicity and productivity.
Darren has told us that his ProBlogger email inbox can often be overwhelming, and with a couple of extremely successful blogs, running a large ad network, and multiple other projects, it isn’t hard to imagine why.
If most people have a hard time managing email, Darren would have the same problem but on a different order of magnitude.

Storus Corp just successfully sued another advertiser for use of a trademarked term in the ad copy. This is the first time that I have seen a company sue another advertiser directly without relying on Google as the intermediary for filing trademark exceptions.

Friday I posted a link to a Power Point with Spring Break stats from Nielsen and Anheuser- Busch. Ypulse reader Paul emailed with his take with his first point being: “It was sponsored by Anheuser-Busch.” He also wrote:
The Summary is: College students 21 - 25 years old show a sense of responsibility (slide 4)
Slide 5 - tells us that while yes 70% spent time with their families, 33% spent time partying at a beach or other spring break location…

From USA Today:
I wasn’t a hippie or a stoner so I ended up being the weirdo. I was interested in classical ballet and music, so the kids were quite mean if you were different. I was one of those people that people were mean to. When that happened, instead of being a doormat, I decided to emphasize my differences. - Madonna
Recently internet marketing legend, Larry Chase of Web Digest for Marketers asked for a contributed article on marketing with social media. Unlike many SEO focused social media marketing practitioners which tend to emphasize promoting stories to go “hot” for traffic bursts and ancillary links, TopRank focuses on a long term mix of Branding/PR/SEO tactics to engage in discussions and promotions within social communities.

Posted by Sarah Bird, EsquireMay It Please the Mozzers,
Welcome to Legal Monday! (It’s still Monday, right?) My goal is to present a checklist of legal issues and trends surrounding affiliate marketing. I hope this will be interesting to both merchants and marketers.
Affiliate marketing has unfortunately gained a bad reputation for being particularly high risk. While the industry is unlikely to ever be risk-free, it is possible to manage your risk by (1) investigating your prospective marketing partner; (2) using and maintaining a tight legal contract that allocates the risk and provides for the appropriate indemnifications, and (3) keeping informed about the current technology, marketing strategies, and regulatory climate.

I fear this may have been lost in all of Friday’s posts — Ypulse Books editor Alli Decker interviewed YA author Walter Dean Myers about his latest book Game, and we’re giving away three copies to the first three commenters to share their own “hoop dreams” (or any related high school sports story)…

Tom Simonite at the New Scientist Technology Blog pointed to a study back in December on instant messaging behavior from Germany that discovered that 20% of IMs are drafted but deleted before they are sent:

There seems to be a real struggle to capture the flag by software makers when it comes to small business CRM. It’s very difficult to find a clear leader in this space, although many claim to be serving it.
I think the problem may reside in the fact that what small business marketers really want (need) out of their marketing software may be hard to define and it’s probably not customer relationship management.
No, what most small business owners want and need out of marketing software is the ability to get home earlier at night, to be able to spend time doing the tactical work they love (I didn’t say that was best, but it is reality), and to follow-up automatically with leads.
