The hunt for the Dream Team - 10 bloggers

posted on: September 19th, 2007

After having a good talk with Mr. Gary Lee, I mapped out a little plan. Gary is a great contact to have and he has been busy with his book. He will soon release the information about it on his blog. So in the meantime you can go check out his blog for internet marketing.

10 Bloggers to be filmed

1. John Chow is in
2. I want to get Darren Rowse
3. I want to get Shoemoney
4. I want to get Dosh Dosh
5. Top Blogger
6. Top Blogger
7. Top Blogger
8. Top Blogger
9. a female blogger
10 . newbie blogger - one lucky bastard

We will be casting 9 top bloggers and 1 newbie blogger will have a chance to be in the movie. A newbie would refer to 1-6 months experience in blogging. I’m sure after the movie is done and shown all over the world this newbie will become a pro. The 10 bloggers will benefit because they will be branded with blogging to the rest of the pubic who are potential bloggers. This is will give them exposure and a great way to be part of something that will benefit the community.

BTM update

Currently right now I have been scheduling interviews with speakers / bloggers for the upcoming Blog World Expo in Las Vegas for November 8th-9th. I have been selectively targeting top bloggers to see if they would like to participate in the movie. There will be 10 featured, however I will also get insights from blog related companies, and journalism professors.

These companies could be web-hosting domains, blogging software widgets, affiliate marketing programs. Some of you might think that companies would love to hop aboard this opportunity to be branded with the movie or have an ad place on this website. You’re damn right they would be happy.

Whats the movie going to be like?

I get this question from time to time. Well it’s a documentary. The movie is about real life and the movie is dependent on what is actually filmed, of course we will highlight what is most entertaining and beneficial for the film. I will try to shed light about blogging to the pubic that does not know about this society of information consumers.

Who would you like to see in Blogging the Movie??

I’m running poll on my sidebar where you get to pick and chose who you want to be in the movie. The winner of this poll will have a chance to be featured in the movie. The bloggers I feel that would be beneficial for the movie are John Chow, Shoemoney, Problogger, Dosh Dosh and of course random newbie bloggers on My Blog Log.

The top voted blogger in this poll will have a chance to be in the movie, however they will ultimately have the choice if they would like to be filmed. Every top blogger has their own legions of fans and lets see which fans are willing to fight for their favorite blogger. The schedule end date for this poll is 12/31/07.

10 Bloggers

Who will be part of the featured documentary of bloggers? I will only select 10 bloggers from around the world that I will visit. This is a very interesting concept. Bloggers are a force to be reckon with.

  • Over 12 million American adults currently maintain a blog.
  • Over 57 million Americns read blogs.

This movie will be filmed from a blogger’s perspective- the daily struggles that we go through to maintain a virtual real estate.
