    You may not want to offer that. I'll bankrupt Mashable with my coffee intake.

    Amazing new world we are entering into online: a blog covering startups and social media acquires a social media startup for integration just days after launching a new form of social on-site advertising.

    Welcome to the world of consolidation and integration and Congrats on the next big leap!

    Thanks Andrew.

    I'm so proud of the Mashable team for these last few updates. I've been following this blog since 2007 and seen the incredible growth in just a couple years.

    Everyone is worried about how to monetize and here comes Pete and the Mashable crew to solve the problem. The Twitter Brand Sponsors idea is GOLD.

    Thanks for the consistent inspiration.

    Mashable Roque's More!! :D

    Hey John,

    I think Twitter Brand Sponsors is a baby step, yup, but nobody has cracked engagement-based advertising yet. Thanks for the props!

    Kind of twitter.com/showusyoursite's big brother.
  • Michelle · 9 months ago
    Damn this is an idea that we're currently working on, almost the same name to.

    Fantastic work Pete. Onwards is upwards.
  • mashable · 9 months ago
    Thanks Chris. When did we do that phone call? Like, 2 years ago? Time flies! :)
  • Giantnerd® · 9 months ago
    Mashable is really on the up and up. Just make sure to keep focus on your insightful and educational articles. You own this market!

  • Robert Basil · 9 months ago
    I love Mashable, but am I the only person who thinks the smilie faces in the article get in the way of reading?
  • mashable · 9 months ago
    This article actually has a disproportionately high number of smilies: expect maybe one or two per article (on average) going forward.
  • Robert Basil · 9 months ago
    Got it, thanks Pete.
  • MonTemplar · 9 months ago
    You sold me! Signed up and blipping away! :)
  • Business trends · 9 months ago
    Good move - good luck with that. Care to share with us any of the financials behind it? Hopefully you will not ruin my joke (mashabl.com) now that you acquired a taste in losing e's.
  • ArabCrunch · 9 months ago
    Blippr is based in a simple idea, but it is very cool and useful i loved it :), congr. Mashable. in Arabic we Say Mabrouk :)
  • Kris · 9 months ago
    WELL DONE! MY PRECIOUS! Good buy! Please do tell...how much?
  • zafarali · 9 months ago
    yay!
    blippr was always my place to go for movie reviews. Love it!
    I was one of the first few testers of the site :D
  • nickck · 9 months ago
    good job guys, i guess it is only logical for news sites to try and leverage themselves with these kind of review sites. it will be interesting to see if any other news paper web editions or other information news services do the same thing.
  • Evan · 9 months ago
    Good work guys!
  • the Jim Gaudet · 7 months ago
    How can I add the blippr code to my site? I would like people to be able to see that cool little faces to vote...

    I am now officially overwhelmed!
    I am considering becoming
    "Anti-Social Media"
    But then imagine what I would miss
    And that missing out
    Is what keeps me involved!
