		<description>I was just wondering if there was a specific reason why you provided the links in their shortened formats.. Also, why did you use a different shortening site for each one..

Just curious.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the interest in WordVision Brian. Look forward to speaking with you this week about the tool.  Also great to hear any feedback from your fans.  

FYI--We&#039;re in the final stage of launching our second version, due out by the end of this week, which is much more robust.  To make a long story short, we&#039;ve been using WordVision internally with hundreds of writers and clients at LifeTips.com and WriterAccessPlus for years.  Our internal staff and freelance writers know how to use the features of WordVision. But passing on that knowledge to new subscribers has been a challenge.  

Having said that... we&#039;ll see how people respond to the new version.  Our writers and clients have helped us get the kinks out and better explain how to put WordVision to work in powerful ways not seen before on the web. 

Look forward to more comments on your blog from readers interested in tools that help them get ahead of the pack.</description>

		<description>messed around with worldvision tool and I honestly think that it would better to take the time and come up with your own great and keyword rich content rather than depending on this tool to help you as it seems to not be that accurate</description>

		<description>The Calvin and Hobbs is very relevant right now.  

If you wonder why we are where we are today, look no further than the unconstitutional Federal Reserve and their endless Monopoly Money printing.

Did you know the Federal Reserve is neither &quot;Federal&quot; nor does it have any &quot;reserves&quot;.</description>

		<description>on the &quot;Followers aren&#039;t really friends on Twitter&quot; 

Interesting discussion about Twitter and &quot;authority&quot; - I think it all depends on what you really want to gain by using Twitter.

Commenter Peter B put it best, I think, that the measure of &quot;influence&quot; could be number of re-tweets and @ replies - shows you actually got a physical response to what you wrote - it connected or touched a nerve.   

In my experience, Twitter feels more like a one-sided monologue than an actual conversation. 

Bert Decker is a master at making it more of a two-way dialogue, he responds often to others - I suspect he&#039;s doing a better job than most of building relationships.</description>

		<description>After playing with Wordvision for a while, I found some things lacking.  Keyword Cloud didn&#039;t work for any of the phrases I put in. And the page strength tool missed keywords in page titles for my site and some other sites I put in.  Seems it got confused by dashes in the titles.</description>

		<description>Off topic, but I&#039;ve never heard of snipurl.com, but when I go there it takes me to another domain. Is that the same as tinyurl.com?</description>
