aloha Sergio, thanks for the reply.

After giving this some thought I think more than a few folks are already trying this, unsuccessfully perhaps. People can smell a con and you're right. Anyone that thinks they can go into a social networking site to promote their stuff, has waay too much time/money.

That's solid advice. There might be an opportunity to start a website or list of popular people entrenched in myspace that already love or already use particular products and would be willing to mention them in a daily posting.

I suppose it's similar to a blogger praising a particular product in their blog. One difference could be the types of products you could market this way through a social networking site.

I'll reply back when I've had a chance to come up with something more useful than a bunch of questions. aloha, -Brent

P.S. The alohaworkshops model is more about lifestyle choices than about typical software training models. The focus might be on certification, but I think everyone would agree, the lessons learned are much more valuable than a skill set you can use to earn money. That's both the intention and invitation we share. It would work in Spain and just about anywhere. I prefer bringing students here instead of going around places and teaching like I used to do.
