The 1 Percent Rule… and my resulting corollary:

Pretty interesting stuff. It makes sense though. About 20 of you visit this blog and to date i’ve only gotten 1 comment and none of have volunteered to write a guest entry!

 Anyway every good meme deserves an Ahene Corollary:

The Ahene Corollary to the 1 percent Rule
It’s hard enough to attract regular vistors and eye balls to your website… It’s at least hundred times as hard to get people to contribute content for free.

  1. And what does the guest entry need to be about? It seems your website is very business-ish. =) But I think you put more thoughts into your entries more so than the average blogger… More maybe I just don’t read enough well-thought out blogs.

  2. Great site. Admin cool boy
