			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is my first official blog so I am just learning the ropes.  </p>
<p>Basically I am linking this to a website I made for the purpose of getting familiar with <a href="http://associates.amazon.com">Amazon&#8217;s Associate program</a>. That website is <a href="http://www.booksbypeopleiknow.com">Books By People I Know</a>, but you probably already figured that out.</p>
<p>All the people on the home page of the site and in the category listings of the <a href="http://www.booksbypeopleiknow.com/shop/shop.php">shop</a> are people that I know, some very well, others are old friends and acquaintances, a few I&#8217;ve only met professionally, and then there is the one I&#8217;m feuding with&#8230;.  And yes, if you buy any of their books, music or movies, I get a referral fee from Amazon.  I don&#8217;t expect to see much traffic here, but for a lark I bought a single square on the <a href="http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com">Million Dollar Home Page</a> to drive a trickle of visitors my way. By the way, it actually has brought a trickle of traffic, an average of 3 visitors a day since the link went live.</p>
<p>Also, if you are interested, I used a tool called <a href="http://www.associate-o-matic.com">Associate-o-matic</a> to build the <a href="http://www.booksbypeopleiknow.com/shop/shop.php">shop</a> - it is cool!</p>
<p>I hope you enjoy and will visit again - thanks!
