The Wily Filipino, who recently blogged about Taken By Cars, sent over details to a recent NYU study of the correlation between the amount of blog entries vis-a-vis the success of a music album (hence, the Taken By Cars blog entry context). The study found that "the volume of blog posts about an album is positively correlated
with future sales."

If that's not interesting enough to our friends in the music industry, then there's this: "greater increases in an artist's Myspace friends week over week have a weaker correlation to higher future sales."

We continue to busy up our calendar with meetings and proposals. In the past few weeks, we've moved from proposal stage to operationalization stage for two projects. Thank you clients and bloggers!

We also received, gleefully, an honor from Michael over at Basang Panaginip. Thanks for the props. It's made Maddie the Robot very happy.

Finally, this week we're looking forward to meeting three well-regarded bloggers from the network for a campaign we're looking to kickoff late January. If meeting Connie, Abe and Kiven weren't exciting enough, I have a feeling I'm going to run out of words (or witty comebacks) with this group.

All for now.
