I had never really understood Carnival of the Capitalists. The home page of it doesn’t do a very good job of explaining exactly what is going on – it is written for submitters – not readers. CotC is an itinerant, weekly digest of business and marketing know-how – hosted at a different blog each week. I submitted my essay about marketing principles from a gay leather convention. It got in!
Yeah, the whole concept behind CotC is a fine one – it’s just poorly managed (the website needs a bit of tweaking to get it into this century) and it needs to be better sold
