Evelyn Rodriguez on the Marketplace

Evelyn Rodriquez, chatting about pike place market, used a metaphor for the market to describe what a blog can do for a company. I always loved markets, I used to attend college in Leicester in the United Kingdom, and Leicester is a small market town in the east midlands. I remember the calls of stallholders shouting out their wares and prices, “fifty pence a pound for tomatoes!�? Evelyn’s description of the blogosphere as a marketplace is right, when I think back to that market, I had the opportunity to compare prices, and quality from amongst a number of market gardeners. This describes the current blogosphere, customers more than ever before have the ability to compare company’s products and services on the marketplace with their fellow customers.
