I signed up for social spark too but found it not quite to my taste. I may go back and check it out again but I am just so busy with everything else it is hard.

I enjoyed your video interview with Ted Murphy. You asked great questions unlike my recent interview with Ted where we just goofed around. I take it for granted that I've been working with PayPerPost/SocialSpark/IZEA for years and have heard things that ted has to say about IZEA but my viewers/readers have not. You certainly did a very informative 3 minute interview with Ted.

I liked Social Spark more, did a few sponsored reviews for them. Now I won't go anywhere near it, all because of $11 worth of reviews that they never paid me for. If Social Spark is going to stay in business, they're going to have to do something to hang on to quality bloggers and improve their customer service. They're going to have to set up clear guidelines and work on their communication. Otherwise they're just going to end up with nothing more than a bunch of paid links.
