Easton Ellsworth Exaggerates Excellently and Talks Talent Terrifically

Filed Under Successful Blog | 10 Comments

Thank you, Easton, for Making Us Pez Dispensers!

Yesterday, the world famous blogger, Mr. Easton Ellsworth of Know More Media’s Business Blogwire made an incredible announncement.

Well, the announcement itself was credible. He does make announcements, so that action is credible enough. It’s just that this announcement was about something incredible. Well the something isn’t incredible — it’s something that’s called incredible. Um, maybe I should let Easton tell you himself.

. . . “Incredible Hall of Acclaim” icon . . . (Long live the PEZ dispenser!) This is a new program where I will highlight incredible bloggers who spread pro blogging tips, business blogging news and/or corporate blogging wisdom galore.

While only blogs of incredibly high quality can receive this honor, you’re potentially eligible if you blog about corporate blogging or professional blogging in any way.
Every Monday I plan to bestow my Incredible badge upon one or more deserving bloggers. If you receive the badge, you may place it on your blog and may also choose to have your content appear in my new Hall of Acclaim aggregate blog along with that of other Incredible bloggers. Over time I hope to build up an Incredible list!

There is no limit to the number of potential Incredible bloggers in my Hall of Acclaim, but I plan to keep it pretty exclusive. –Easton Ellsworth

Easton Ellsworth . . .

talks talent terrifically, by saying Mike Sansone is incredible

and exaggerates excellently by doing the same for me.

Thank you, Easton. The likenesses are remarkable.

It’s WAY COOL to be a Hall of Famer!

It’s even COOLER to be here with Mike Sansone!

I’ve always wanted to be a PEZ dispenser. . . .

How did he know that?
