They were the first network I join. The experience was very good. It a little disappointing that they shutdown. Moving on to the next one. I started blogging two months ago and I hear about blogrush.

I don't doubt that we all have failures we could share and not everyone would be comfortable doing so publicly. He deserves respect not only for doing so, but for the good intentions behind the project. You have to admire John Reese for being man enough to decide it’s time to call a halt to Blogrush.

When we are down in the valley, that's where most of the learning takes place. That learning in the valley is what makes you rise up to the top of the mountain. At the top of the mountain, very little learning takes places. Small businesses start out in the valley. If they are successful they rise up to the mountain top. Once at the mountain top, they become stagnant within the corporate culture. John's most valuable asset was not BlogRush or any other business venture. His most valuable asset is time for time is the stuff life is made of. Admitting failure and letting something go as fast as possible is the key to success. Cutting your losers short and letting your winners ride is something all of us need to be doing on a regular basis. The worst thing you can do is to waste your valuable time trying to make a market where there is none. I would go as far to say that failures are the only way we really learn.

But removed it after a month. I always thought that the links didn't have enough characters in and so people didn't know what they were clicking on and so wouldn't click. A ticker style widget would have been better imo. Everyone placed the widget way to far down the page too. If I had an offer for a failing idea I would have sold it :lol: .

I recall a text I had to purchase for a college marketing course that was composed of several short case studies whose central theme was business failure. having been down the road of business failures more than once...the faster you get your wounds licked and your ego bandaged, the faster you will see the sun rising for a new venture. Who was it that said that which does not kill us, makes us stronger? You know, there could be an info product in the failure.
