		<description>One of these days I have to go to the Barrett Jackson auction.  It&#039;s not far from my house, and I love the cars I see on TV. I always wondered how much I would have gotten for my old convertible if I sold it through them.</description>

		<description>Hi Dan,

As you describe all bloggers are your audience. The questions Jon asked provide the context of what language is appropriate. I also often caught myself using jargon, Pay Per Post appeal &quot;to the masses&quot; [sic] is dependent on speaking our language and addressing our concerns of integrity.

It is unfortunate that you did not try to answer my fundamental concerns with PayPerPost.</description>

		<description>Lloyd,

Thanks for highlighting any confusing terms.  When your head is in a business every day, it&#039;s easy to use terms that are common to your teammates, but new to casual observers.  Jon knows his audience better than I and I would have gladly clarified any terms he felt would confuse.  I will address the ones you mentioned below:

- CGM = Consumer Generated Media
- open-tone (my preference) or neutral-tone =  posts of any tone 
- specific-tone = posts of a specific tone (pos or neg)
- opps = opportunities to create sponsored content
- posties = shorthand for sponsored bloggers, sometimes used specifically for PPP sponsored bloggers
- leveraging the creative talent of the masses = just that. I view crowdsourcing a bit differently in that it often derives an answer from the collective input of a crowd (e.g. Digg voting) -- whereas PPP is about unique, sponsored content across diverse authors/blogs.  The reference to masses is also to distinguish this reward-the-masses approach from a reward-the-elite/gatekeepers approach to sharing information.

I hope this added detail makes the interview easier to follow.  Thanks for taking the time to read and understand PPP a bit better.</description>
