Meet One of the 50 Hottest Bachelors - A Blogger!

Well in my Wednesday, June 15 post about "Unleashing your Ideavirus," I spoke about how traditional marketing is no longer the way to millions. Now the way to spread an idea is through an "ideavirus."

In the post I wrote:
"If you want a product to be popular then all you have to do is put it in the hand of a celebrity and get it in People Magazine...Right now blogs and text messaging are the new ideavirus. In order to get all political campaigns to make these technologies a part of their strategy, the celebrity [political] campaigns need to use them."

Well now it is official - the ideavirus of blogging is spreading. In the June 27 issue of People Magazine named this year's 50 hottest bachelors. Of course this list included Brad Pitt, Usher, and Tom Cruise (it was published before he proposed to Katie in Paris), it also included Jason Mulgrew. Who is Jason Mulgrew you ask??? Well he is the "bachelor blogger." This man, who is a marketing analyst by day, chronicles his dating life on his blog that gets over 10,000 hits per day Everything is Wrong with Me. Although he does not write about the latest political commentary, the fact of the matter is this year one of the 50 hottest bachelors was a blogger - an ideavirus in action!

Thanks for the link to this blog. I have never heard of this guy before, but his blog is really funny. The fact that this blog is getting attention from the media (and yes, I did just refer to People Magazine as a media outlet) once again shows that blogs are getting more attention and that they are becoming a big part of pop culture. Kudos to Jason Mulgrew.
