Is ReveNews a Rudderless Ship?

March 19th, 2008 by Brad Waller

The ship hath been suddenly becalmed.

Day after day, day after day,
We stuck, nor breath nor motion ;
As idle as a painted ship
Upon a painted ocean.

I feel partial ownership of ReveNews since I have been a long time reader, participant, and author here. There have been times in the past when it seemed that the good ship ReveNews was becalmed and either was cursed or had no captain at the helm.

The last few years this was not the case. From the time Jim took over until last week when Sam left, I had the distinct feeling that someone not only knew what they were doing, but had a plan on where they were heading and how to get there. If it is time for Sam to move on, so be it.

Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink ;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.

So who is running the ship now? What is the plan? Unfortunately this has not been communicated to the readers of ReveNews nor the writers. What does this mean for the future of ReveNews? I really don’t know. It is a strong ship, and it can survive hardships and times of directionless motion. But too much time without a strong leader can make for long term problems.

The very deep did rot : O Christ !
That ever this should be !
Yea, slimy things did crawl with legs
Upon the slimy sea.

I have heard rumors and will not repeat baseless words here, but I don’t want to see ReveNews go down a slippery slope and lose the respect it has. Without direction, who knows what may happen to the bloggers that post here and what direction we will go. Perhaps we will start something rolling that is ill advised that could lead to a loss of respect and cause readers to leave in droves.

I don’t know. And that’s the problem.

Good question Brad. As a Revenews blogger I second your thoughts.

I hear that Shoemoney is going to buy it.

Fair questions but I think quoting from the Rime of the Ancient Affiliate Marketer may be overwrought. :P

As for rudderless, I see some of the same thing, but am confident we’ll soon know who the captain is and the ship’s direction will then be known to her crew and passengers.

Besides the rudder, that ClickBooth run of site banner, is causing the ship to take on water, weighing her down with worry that a bad case of scurvy has broken out below decks.

I agree with Brook!

Umm, I don’t know about other bloggers here, but no one has ever really given me direction on what to write or cover. Not even a suggestion, this blog is about online revenue, how to, how not to, etc, how much more direction do you all need?

Oh wait, I have heard the same thing from Wayne, Jim and Sam over the years, WRITE MORE!
