Viral marketing
Viral marketing is nicer than it sounds :-) . It's a way to enhance brand awareness via social networks and mouth-to-mouth. I stumbled upon a viral marketing action to promote mindmanager, a tool I've been playing with to shape my thoughts on about2findout.com. Via other blogs I heard about an action to get a free version for bloggers, no strings attached, a campaign by Whizpr. All you had to do was send an e-mail to a certain address.
Unfortunately for me, the action was just finished and I was too late. I did get a personal (not automatic!) answer back with a link to a 60 day evaluation version. This was the note I got back:
For the unfortunate among us that do not speak Dutch, there is a good program to learn it here. :-) Must say, nice way to experience viral marketing!
Anyway, stay tuned for my draft mindmap on about2findout.com. It'll be a document to facilitate discussion.

Beste Bert,Helaas, de actie liep gedurende de maand oktober. Dus je grijpt er net naast. maar omdat je wel over interessante zaken schrijft en ik denk dat MindManager zeker een belangrijke kan spelen in e-learning, wil ik je graag een uitgebreide test versie sturen. Deze werkt volledig en voor 60 dagen.
Ik lees (of hoor) graag wat je ervan vindt. Er wordt steeds meer gebruikgemaakt van mindmapping, en ook van MindManager in het onderwijs. Veel docenten geven les vanuit MindManager en studenten gebruiken het bij hun studie. Veel mindmap-plezier!Groeten,
Erik
