Goof on John Chow

Welcome to the first official goof for Just Goofin' !!

The goof crew will be goofing on Money Making Blogs as a genre for the first group of posts. We have to limit the the number of goofs on Money Making Blogs because there are so damn many of them.

The first victim is John Chow dot Com. Now this is actually a very good blog. Mr. Chow is a web veteran with lots of technical knowledge and it certainly shows on his site. It is also a "one stop shopping" spot for monetizing ideas, the latest widgets, blogging trends and where to get the best Dim Sum in Toronto. The guy doesn't do many things wrong-as long as grammar and spelling errors don't get your shorts in a bunch. Even though he's a self professed "Evil Genius," he has a heart: the proceeds from his blog go to charity. All in all, both the man and the blog are professional, informative and just plain good.

Just a couple of things bug me however.

Go to John Chow dot Com and you will see a list of "Featured Sites" on the right near the top of the page. These sites contain the usual array of affiliate nonsense including a "make money online with my 'secret system'" deal, a Forex Trading deal, a Penis Enlargement deal...

WHOA. Penis enlargement? Does Mr. Chow believe that people reading his blog don't have email? Next to mortgage offers, penis enlargement is probably the most prolific spam email topic on the face of the earth. Before I tweaked my spam filters, I started calling it "Pmail." So after spending time searching his blog for insightful suggestions at blogging success, just pop to the top of the page for info on what's really important: having a big dick. Search the affiliate site and you'll find "Long Schlong Exercises." The intro reads:

The Long Shlong technique is also known as The Power Stretch technique. The Long Shlong is set of exercises that were designed to stretch and enlarge the penis. This may be an exercise that will help lengthen, but it will also help with the fitness of your penis.

Everyone knows the importance of "penis fitness." The instructions for the technique follow:

# Warm-up thoroughly
# Start with a flaccid penis
# Take the tip of your penis below the head
# Stretch your penis out (away from you), hold for 15 seconds
# Repeat the above steps for a couple reps
# Relax & gently massage the head of your penis
# Stretch your penis to the right, hold for 15 seconds
# Relax & gently massage the head of your penis
# Stretch your penis to the left, hold for 15 seconds
# Relax & gently massage the head of your penis
# Repeat for the desired number of reps

I don't know about anyone else, but that sounds like masturbation to me. If that was what I was interested in, there are plenty of other sites more suited to the activity than Mr. Chow's!

Another thing, akin to masturbation, is that John pimps Agloco. This is a classic pyramid scam that will likely never get off the ground. John is simply the biggest Pied Piper in this classic "ride the wave" hyped bit of nonsense.
