Do you or anyone you know have the resources to spread the work about CanadiansTalk.ca (The Windsor chapter http://www.WindsorTalk.ca) Possible ideas might be outdoor signs to advertise the web address, I could drop off cards and place them at a cash register etc. One good example is a member here (Barry) has a job that brings him to apt buildings around the city, he posts a few business cards.

If you have an idea, please contact me through a PM or through this thread and we can discuss further.

Thanks,

Glenn

Glenn have you tried posting a link to this site on the ebay discussion boards. They have a Canadian section? You do have to have a membership to post on the boards but ebay reaches millions of people. Here is a link to the ebay Canada discussion boards. Many may welcome the opportunity to post in a forum where the censorship is not overly limiting as it is there.

This is the Canada town square..... there are many sub sections of areas of interest.

I drive the bus for Transit Windsor. I saw one of your signs at Howard and the sixth concession. One way to advertise is on the buses, but this will probably cost.

What's interesting about this is that I was thinking of starting a website like this as I'm pretty frustrated with the Windsor Star which has only so much space for you to express your opinion. So, I'm glad you adverstised and I found you. So advertising DOES help.

I have more signs to put up, it's finding the time to do it! Make sure you tell all your friends about this place...

Hey, if you guys make bumper sticker's I'll put one on my car. Windsor Star is a great place to advertise. Make up some flyers to put in windows of convenience stores. Flyers in the PennySaver. Maybe rent a GoodYear blimp. Mr. Green By the way, I have been telling people about the site. Also, my niece is dating Mike Kakuk on AM 800 CKLW maybe he could give a plug for this....but I probably doubt it as he has his own blog site at the CKLW site.

I'll throw up a banner on WE Speak for the site. It will go into a rotation with the others. It rotates with each page load.

I notice that you have a Facebook group. I would suggest promoting the Facebook group through the site, encouraging all the members here to join. Each member that joins exposes the group to hundreds of their friends. It's a good compliment to the site.

That's because you have to have a sign underneath saying GOD IS WATCHING RIGHT NOW.

Good idea, I wonder how much that would cost....
