    BzzCampign for Sodastream, I Want In!

    This post is just for BzzAgent Jono!

    Many people know that I am a BzzAgent. A person who participates in word of mouth social marketing campaigns for products and services which I typically receive free samples or trials of.  You can find out more yourself at http://BzzAgent.com.

     One of the newest campaigns is for Sodastream, a machine which makes soda in your kitchen using water, CO2, and flavor syrup, all in a reusable container.  I’ve been looking at this machine for a year now, asking myself the typical questions, does it work, is it worth it, will it taste good? So far I haven’t answered the question because I haven’t purchased a machine but the fact that I am still considering it and still looking at this one product certainly says something.

     First it tells me, after being around for more than a year I haven’t found anything negative or heard any rumors that have turned me off from the product or caused me to stop considering it.  Let me tell you, this doesn’t happen often.  Typically I can uncover negative reviews or watch a product slip away because it doesn’t really work and I stop looking at it.  Secondly, the fact that it’s still the only homemade soda machine I’m looking at shows that I believe it’s the best product that makes soda at home.  I haven’t found a replacement machine to start looking at and I don’t really even see any contenders.

     So, why this post?  Well, I have an opportunity to get in on this BzzCampaign.  I’ve been excited about it all week and have been waiting to post this to show BzzAgent Jono how badly I want in.  If I don’t get in, well I likely still keep looking, but if I do get in, OH BOY!!  I’ll be a be able to answer all my questions about this product and I’ll be able to share my findings with all of you! If you’ve seen my previous Bzz posts or I’ve talked with you personally you know I’m honest about my opinions and you can trust this won’t change for Sodastream! Please Jono, invite me to this campaign so I can share my thoughts about this product and hopefully turn others onto a great product that will save them money on soda and save them from having to recycle all those pastic bottles. (I’m an optimist about this product and I really hope it lives up to my expectations!)

    My Favorite #AttackWatch Tweets from Today

    So if you don’t know yet Obama started a website to “track and respond to attacks”…sounds very Hitler-esh to me but it appears to have backfired. After suggesting that people use twitter and the hashtag #AttackWatch to report attacks it appears people have hijacked his tag (I guess they didn’t really understand how Twitter worked) and now #AttackWatch is the laughing stock of the internet.  Below are some of my favorite tweets so far:
    The official kickoff from the AttackWatch twitter account:
    • See a new attack on the President or his record? Use #attackwatchto report it and discuss attacks as they happen.

    and then the people take over:

    • Hey #attackwatch, I saw 6 ATM’s in an alley, killing a Job. It looked like a hate crime!
    • Hey #attackwatch I just looked at a map of the U.S. Someone has stolen 7 of the 57 States! 
    • Dear #attackwatch my neighbor won’t give me all her money even though she makes more than me. Look into this please.
    • #attackwatch Obamas ego is blocking my view of the sky.
    • #AttackWatch #truestory A small business owner told me he tried to hire 7 people & they all turned him down b/c they were on Unemployment.
    • #attackwatch I want to report someone at home on the range who said a discouraging word.
    • No hashtag is safe from the hordes of people who actually pay their own bills.#attackwatch
    • #AttackWatch - Reporting WA Longshoremens Union. They attacked and vandalized without Obama campaign materials! INVESTIGATE!
    • #attackwatch I got the White House Honey Ale that Obama created. It promised not to go above 8% alcohol but turned out to be closer to 10%
    • Hey, #attackwatch , there wasn’t any sauce for my McNuggets. Do we contact you or 911?
    •  I found a website with lies about .@BarackObama It’s WhiteHouse.gov #attackwatch
