    Fight Club Blog: Free to the right person.

    tn_fight_club_front.jpgTake over the Fight Club Blog.

    To the tune from Oliver: "Blog. Blog for sale. It's going cheap. Only seven guineas."

    I was going to close the account where I keep the Fight Club Blog since I've moved that discourse over here onto this blog for the most part. Of course my mind was muddled with thoughts of saving the $7 a month that that blog costs me to run.

    When out of the blue.. an epiphany. Why not give that blog to the under-served wannabe blogger who can benefit from it. After all, it has a pagerank of 4, has 125 subscribers, 82 back links, and has been up and running for a year or more. And people say nice things about it like this myspace entry:

    "I don't know why, but I got on a kick about Billy Barty. No one has dedicated a blog to him, but there is a Fight Club blog entry that features him. Apparently, Barty, post-humously, took on a kid named Ryan Coombs. http://www.fightclub.squarespace.com/the-blog/2006/4/1/fight-club-recap-0306.html"

    See, everyone loves it. No need to shut it down. Recycle.

    So, I offer my offspring to the world lest it wither and fade away.

    If you'd like to take over the Fight Club Blog, email me at jeffbarson at gmail . I'll happily sign the adoption papers for a deserving parent. Besides getting the blog I'll promise to say nice things about you here as well as teach you everything you need to know if you're blogging challenged. You start paying the $7 a month. That's the deal.

    Keep in mind that this is not first come, first serve. I'd prefer that the acquiring home have at least one of the following attributes:

    • A local (meaning Utah) entrepreneur.
    • A Fight Club Member.
    • A technology startup in need of a voice.
    • Bigger than a bread box.
    Of course I usually don't get my way, so if you don't fit one of the above categorys, don't let that deter you. If you'd like to take on a blog, send me an email and make your pitch. I'll wait a few days and then announce the happy new parent.
