A bit of this and a bit of that

So what are the boys and girls down at PayPerPost up to? Well, we’ve been told there there’s some big news coming our way, but no one wants to give us any clues as to what the news is going to be. Well, I put my thinking hat on, and tried to think of a few things they could have up their sleeve ..

• They could be getting a new blog: Considering they are in the business of blogs and blogging, I don’t really like the PayPerPost blog. It’s built on Blogger and while it does the job doesn’t look very snazzy. And I hate the way it’s NOFOLLOW page too! I think they’ll be running a competition for Posties to build a new blog for them and the winner will be getting a free trip, all expenses paid, to PostieCon
• They could be making a big hire: We already know that Scoble will be talking at the PostieCon they’re organising. I think they’ve managed to sign him up as the new VP of Sales. I know he’s not really a sales person, but he’s a driving force in the blogosphere and he could certainly make things more exciting
• They could be buying another company: Since the acquisition of Performancing has fallen through, they have been looking for a new way to expand the company. I think they’ve probably made a bit to acquire a company like MyBlogLog or Multiply to help enhance their marketing estate.

There you go, my three predictions as to what the new “Big Thing” is going to be. What do you think?
