On Blogging for Profit

In light of the recent Federal Trade Commission statement regarding blogger endorsements of products, I would like to take this opportunity to set something down in no uncertain terms:

Any retail product, good, or service that I have written or will write about in this blog has not and never will be provided free of charge or for other compensation, monetary or otherwise, without each such entry expressly saying so.

On its face, I'm wouldn't be averse to getting free stuff in exchange for using and then writing about it. But, since this blog has perhaps two readers (one of them being me), vouchsafe that this practice is not in any company's interest or gain. What is here in the white type has been and will be my unvarnished opinion after having thoroughly researched and --- in the vast majority of times --- used or experienced a product or service.
