More nice things about Rogue Connect
Flattery will get you everywhere;
I’m joining this site (with any luck) because it seems to be damned better than myspace, where the average IQ has to level at around 0.000001, give or take.

People Getting The Rogue Message
Looking over some of the applications for exclusive membership at Rogue Connect today I came across this application;
boring boring fella … dont know wat to write … just lemme in(please)… i wanna see sexy laydees
It seems that the essence of the site is getting across.
For reference, he didn’t get in. “Boring fella”? Just not rogue enough.

Deleting Some Failed Applications
For the first time on Rogue Connect we’ve invoked our exclusive status and deleted the accounts of people who have applied for membership, but have failed to be given it by our members. All up we’ve deleted over 100 applications, the list was simply becoming too long.
We are looking at ways of making this a process. Only around 45% of people who apply for Rogue Connect accounts end up getting one. That leaves a lot of applicants. Some are dormant and don’t return once they feel they won’t get in, others continue to tweak their profile hoping to get in. As we redevelop the membership and voting feature, it will definetley be the latter applicants (and our existing members) who are the primary focus.
The route I don’t want to go down is that of BeautifulPeople, their site deletes you after so many days (seven I think) which I don’t think is a good enough time to find out if people are ‘Rogue’ enough to get membership.

Tammy NYP Video
Wow, it’s the sort of publicity a lot of people would kill for, but apparently only a girl named Tammy from Singapore can get.
Tammy’s had her mobile phone stolen you see, and video from it has been loaded onto the internet for everyone to download. I’m sure there’s the run of the mill videos in there, but the main one everyone seems to be after is of Tammy and her boyfriend ‘at it’ shall we say.
So how many people are everyone? Well enough it seems. According to Technorati the most searched things for this hour are Tammy. In fact, the top 6 in the most searched for are the likes of “Tammy”, “Tammy Video”, “NYP”, “Tammy Video Download”, and so on. In fact, it looks like she’s broken Technorati. Only 7 things are appearing in the top 15 (places 8 - 15 being blank) and the only other thing in there are A Level Results. Ho hum.
So does this put her on par with Paris Hilton? Tammy is an instant mini-celeb of some infamy - if people aren’t after the video, they’re after photos and pictures of her! The net is yet again proved to be an awesome marketing and word-of-mouth tool!
Now if Rogue Connect could only get that kind of instant publicity!
