This week on the Affiliate Thing podcast, Shawn Collins and Lisa Picarille talk about affiliate marketers taking a road trip to Sacramento to speak with lawmakers about California Assembly Bill 178, as well as efforts by the PMA, bloggers, and forums to organize the effort to fight the bill.
There was also talk of a letter LinkShare put together to educate and appeal to the California legislators.
Plus Guy Kawasaki and his Twitter spam, using WeFollow.com, Web 2.0 Expo, Google AdSense video units sunsetting, Quigo sponsored listings, VC from zanox, and the explosive growth of podcasting.
