CROWDCTRL

A few weeks ago when planning this little site, I made a goal to launch in time for round 3 of the 9rules submission process. I barely made the cutoff, adding my site to the heap of 500+ URLs submitted to Scrivs and the 9 team.

Being a new and young site, I figured a slim chance of joining the ranks of Om and Particle Tree, not to mention the dozens of other sites from the network I have queued up in the feed reader.

Well I was happily wrong, and now am happy to announce that Crowd Control has been accepted into the ever-growing 9rules fold. Official announcements on the 9rules site will come shortly. Here’s how I’ve described the site to Scrivs (a full about page will surely appear around here at some point):

Crowd Control is about what makes people happy. I have a love for the wildly popular, successful, effective, and well-executed aspects of life that just plain make people happy, and I tend to focus on nothing in particular. At the core, the site is about how to draw the crowds in, and how to acheive even more success through giving people more control. It’s culture, it’s design, it’s marketing, it’s new media, it’s new business, and a unique and quality outlook on the state of happiness in our world.

I have a bit more to say about 9rules, but I’ll leave this post to the announcement. Thanks 9rules!

Update [11-1-2006]: I resigned crowdctrl from the 9rules network in February due to some differing points of view. More on this later.
