Start a Blog, Get a Free House

Still not convinced that blogging brings rewards? How about a free house?

That’s exactly what blogger Kyle MacDonald managed to get by asking people to trade goods with him. He started off with a big red paperclip and, through a series of trades, ended-up with a house!

On that note, I have a slightly used post-it note and I’m looking to trade for a small Caribbean island, can anyone help? ;-)

Lucky Blogger!
