Interesting Post on AskMen.com

I just got an email from the online marketing coordinator of AskMen.com alerting me to a post they have featured about why card collecting is becoming relevant in normal everyday life again.

Granted, this article is more for people who havent been collecting long or are thinking about getting back into the hobby, yet I think its interesting some of the things it highlights.

I wouldnt say I agree with all of it, but I thought it would be interesting for you guys to see how collecting is now being marketed to people through places like this, as well as through upcoming medias. With Diminished Capacity on the verge of release, I would expect that "has been" collectors from around the world will be coming back to the hobby, so I would expect articles like this to be very important in terms of what they are expecting when they do come back.

Personally, I would like a post like this to be featured, but I dont think Im even close to that level of exposure quite yet. Either way, lets hope that the first link they click is not the one to Beckett. Goddamn those bastards over there.
