OK – time for a ‘comical’ interlude.
I was just over at the ProBlogger Book page at Amazon and scanned down the page to see this:
OK – so what ProBlogger reader is searching for ‘no show briefs’?
My name is Darren Rowse and I’m a full time Blogger making a living from this new and dynamic medium from blogs like Digital Photography School and TwiTip - Twitter Tips.
Back in 2002 I stumbled upon an article about ‘Blogging’. I didn’t know it at the time but that moment changed my life. Since then I've become a full time blogger and have blogged on over 20 blogs and co-founded the b5media blog network.

That’s the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time!
I’ve read about other authors who have seen their books listed with crazy stuff. I guess it could have been worse, but not by much.
Little did you know about what kind of undies some your readers wear. Any by the way, it was not me.

Maybe your recent speed posts were so “brief” and … ahem … “well packaged” that it reminded a reader to purchase these? Ya gotta love the Internet!

I guess people who want to blog full-time also need a comfortable pair of briefs to wear while blogging. Personally, I prefer boxers.
That is really funny though! Great cross-marketing!

He’s a digital photography pro.
He’s the make money through blogging godfather.
He’s spent time with the clergy.
He’s got a book.
And now he’s an underwear model.
Darren’s got it all, folks.

Well, when I get my ProBlogger book, I’ll make sure I wear my pair as I read it.

Haha – I more than one person would have had to have searched for that for it to come up as a suggested item?
Too funny…

I bet Problogger Briefs would really sell well. :) Just get some readers to look for them after clicking on your book link to Amazon and presto! they´d be right under it!
Seriously, though, it´s great that Amazon lets you earn off people´s wanderings. I haven´t sold a single item yet that I recommended, but people have bought all sorts of other things after clicking on my affiliate links. :D

I did look for bikini style briefs, but not those. I wear them when i wear a suit. Keeps my suit from having that weird lump when the boxers get folded.

Did nt know amazon was that funny. May be people like to read their book after getting comfortable. Thats a lil too comfy.

Looks like they are trying to push the virtues of working from home (”Work in underwear! Wear same t-shirt 5 days in a row! Complete with ratty slippers!”)
