It certainly is a reasonable form of advertising for $1 per letter. I hope this does well for those spending some money on it. It sure beats paying $4.30 per gallon for gas. Is that word taken?!

The script for sale mentioned above I guess is a neat idea but I'm wary of making purchases at sites that promote free open web proxies. Yikes.

Any value must come from people visiting the site and using it as a directory yet the directly is totally subjective and based upon ability to pay rather than an objective endorsement of the site (like Yahoo etc). There will be some publicity for the sites obviously from publicity surronding the BWP site, but that will fade quickly... how many people are going to use this site over the next few months? It's a great ploy to call this site a 'viral marketing' site as it gives it some kind of 'edge' that in reality it doesn't have - the only winners will be the developers who, in the short term at least, will make money. Ultimately it just shows what idiots most people are! I don’t see the point of this site at all – what advantage does it offer to people who buy a word?

The script is selling for about $18.95 on w3ec.com. There is many people who like this idea and many who hate it. I'm more inclined to hate it until the links are actually worth something in terms of SEO. I do run my own however :P I’m not the creator but have been in contact with him.

Perhaps the million dollar website idea for 2008. I just bought 'hiking' and 'maps' for my website. I see 'antidisestablishmentarianism' is still available for an entrepreneur who wants to move fast. And has deep pockets. Great idea! Perhaps the million dollar website idea for 2008. I just bought ‘hiking’ and ‘maps’ for my website.
