We’ve just sent out a round of request for proposals to a bunch of PHP programmers for updates and enhancements for moving ScratchBack out of beta. We have our internal list of features we want done, but what about you?
What do you want to see ScratchBack roll out first? Smaller widgets and a customizable widgets [...]

Check out Don Chavez’s blog for a some really good opportunities to tip to a TON of exposure for only $5.00.
Last month, DonChavez.com had 248,077 visitors and 635,305 page views.

Hopefully we’ll get permission from the network to [...]

Right now the minimum you can setup a SB widget at is a $1.00 tip. We set it up this way to lower the barrier of entry for people with lower traffic blogs. The idea was that their readers would be able to participate for a low cost.
