The Branding Gavel, this online forum clicks one year last week. In the past one year we have had a nice time meeting with great mind, exchanged views with people around the world. Our community has kept us going. The feedback has been phenomenon. Even though we have not reached the target set ,there is a cause for appreciation. The major goal for the first year was to create brand awareness and visibility. This has really helped our measurement yardsticks with a lot of inputs from great minds like Anu Oluwadare, my Web consultant, over three hundred and forty subscribers (which we recently lost to reorganization). I therefore use this post to appreciate my community members who daily throng the site. About sixty five to seventy percent is from USA. I appreciate those who have taken the time to drop over three hundred and fifty comments to the present two hundred and twenty seven posts.

    You know, I have to tell you, I really enjoy this blog and the insight from everyone who participates. I find it to be refreshing and very informative. I wish there were more blogs like it. Anyway, I felt it was about time I posted, I?ve spent most of my time here just lurking and reading, but today for some reason I just felt compelled to say this.

    I’m a little late finding this article, but I loved it.
    Do you love sports, do you feel like to look cool, i got a very awesome website here introduced by one of my friends. Very good website where you can find the Authentic nike shoes with latest and huge style of nike air max shoes and dunk sb shoes. I have bought from them for so many times, and very satisfied with the their goods and service.Such as Air max 1, air max 2, air max 90, nike air max 2009+, air max 2010 new, nike air max TN, nike air ltd trainers, air max 95.Air max 360 running shoes, nike shox shoes. Though their price are low, don’t worry about it’s quality.
    Christmas is coming, go there to find presents for your friends or family. They are on sale, limited time!

    I?m unsure of my own stance on commenting. Sometimes I feel its watch shameless self-promotion for most people, but then at other times I feel watch somewhat guilty for consuming some fantastic content without contributing my thoughts to the topic.
