Thanks for explaining everything on the Techinnoventure blog. We figured it was some kind of Adwords randomizer mistake. And um, you can just disregard any trademark-related letters you may be getting in the mail soon.

You guys know MailChimp is married, right? FeMailChimp is not very happy with all this flirty chatroom talk.

I love this as well, not MailChimp or iContact persay but how people by one another’s keywords. Funny thing is I can share some ads Bronto ran some time ago to that affect…. and we did as well with words like “Exact Target” – Exactly Missing Your Target with your email marketing solution?

Who knows iContact might have a man crush on you guys. Look for flowers next.
