Rent My Chest 2.0

You know I lost 30 pounds with my diet and weight loss tips, right? It wasn’t just for Gnomedex, and it wasn’t just for my upcoming nuptuals in December. No, I did it so that I could launch… Rent My Chest 2.0. I’m not looking for funding, though - and yes, the classic site is still there (though depreciated). My exit strategy is to be purchased by Yahoo! for $27 million dollars.

I like your exit strategy, but I am not sure that Yahoo would be interested in buying “RENT my Chest” well maybe lockergnome but I doubt they would pay so much for Rent my chest.
Wish you best of luck.

1. congrats on the weight loss.
2. I don’t get 2.0. Does this mean you’re dropping the hand-written physical marking of the flesh in favor of just presenting a background graphic for a floating type layer? Feels like I’m not actually renting you chest anymore. Just renting the image of your chest. That makes the 1.0 version much more valuable to me than 2.0. I’ll agree that the chest itself in 2.0 represents an upgrade. But without the actual marking, you have an overall downgrade
3. and this is the most important: rentmychest 1.0 is funny. 2.0 is just some buff guy showing off.

Since there was actual weight lost, would it not fit to go with 0.5 instead of 2.0?
Speaking for myself, I am heading toward 3.7 if I don’t get out and exercise a little more…
And whatever happened to “Rent My Ass”? That would have been HUGE; no pun intended, btw.

[...] Chris Pirillo (star-blogger and gnomedex-mastermind) started his very-own personalized web-advertisement-platform earlier this week. after loosing 30 pounds of body-weight (bow!), he is now selling ad-words on his chest, starting at 50,- USD. though the offers seriousness might be questioned, this could be your chance to spread your message among early adopters! I’m thinking about getting the keyword ‘vacation’ for the micro-site I did last night… [...]

[...] Expose yourself… but not necessarily Chris Pirillo style. A lot of corporate types are reserved - and are erring too far to the safe side of blogging. If you stay too far to the safe side, you’ll never gain readers. If you become a real human being, you will make interesting connections that you may not have made otherwise. As you move to being more interesting, you’ll have more engaged readers.
