&lt;p&gt;Perhaps such sponsors will pay me to tweet on their behalf or pay me to stop. Either way I win &lt;a&gt;about 1 hour ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a&gt;SocialScope&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If we all have tweets tagged as &lt;a&gt;#sponsored&lt;/a&gt; how will you know it isn’t? How can advertisers differentiate if all appear to be sponsored? &lt;a&gt;41 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a&gt;SocialScope&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;@&lt;a&gt;funkatron&lt;/a&gt; just post them yourself and mark them as &lt;a&gt;#sponsored&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;39 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a&gt;SocialScope&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a&gt;in reply to funkatron&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Followers I highly recommend Lucky Charms cereal. I think it’s magically delicious. &lt;a&gt;#sponsored&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;#onthehouse&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;32 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a&gt;SocialScope&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;@&lt;a&gt;MaxWeb&lt;/a&gt; try my approach if we all have ads - or just look like we do - ads will be neutralized &lt;a&gt;29 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a&gt;SocialScope&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;in reply to MaxWeb&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Followers have you found yourself in a pickle about what pickle to buy? Not me! I always choose Vlasic pickles &lt;a&gt;#sponsored&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;#onthehouse&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;22 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a&gt;SocialScope&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for asking @&lt;a&gt;jnswanson&lt;/a&gt;. I would love a cup of Folgers brand coffee right this minute. &lt;a&gt;#sponsored&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;#onthehouse&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;19 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a&gt;SocialScope&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;in reply to jnswanson&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;@&lt;a&gt;chrisbrogan&lt;/a&gt; @&lt;a&gt;theRQ&lt;/a&gt; join my campaign to neutralize ads on Twitter by marking all as sponsored and onthehouse (my recent tweets explain) &lt;a&gt;14 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a&gt;SocialScope&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;in reply to chrisbrogan&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I know you know I’m often making a point @&lt;a&gt;jnswanson&lt;/a&gt;. I didn’t use you, I just showed how easily we all could be used. &lt;a&gt;#Windex&lt;/a&gt; wipes out ads &lt;a&gt;4 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a&gt;SocialScope&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a&gt;in reply to jnswanson &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Thanks @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/chrisbrogan"&gt;chrisbrogan&lt;/a&gt; for tweeting my campaign to kill ads. I’ll pay you later (ha ha) Easier way to read the list here: &lt;a href="http://bit.ly/5J9gdM"&gt;&lt;a href="http://bit.ly/5J9gdM"&gt;http://bit.ly/5J9gdM&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5955514460"&gt;about 1 hour ago &lt;/a&gt;from web&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;@&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/p0ps"&gt;p0ps&lt;/a&gt; Glad you like Babycakes Vegan cupcakes. I like &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23Entemann"&gt;#Entemann&lt;/a&gt;’s cupcakes and recommend them to all my followers. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23sponsored"&gt;#sponsored&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23onthehouse"&gt;#onthehouse&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5955835554"&gt;43 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from web &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/p0ps/status/5955781933"&gt;in reply to p0ps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;@&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/banannie"&gt;banannie&lt;/a&gt; This is my plan for advertising &lt;a href="http://bit.ly/5J9gdM"&gt;&lt;a href="http://bit.ly/5J9gdM"&gt;http://bit.ly/5J9gdM&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5955910614"&gt;41 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from web &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/banannie/status/5955435592"&gt;in reply to banannie&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;When I watch a football game with &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23Giants"&gt;#Giants&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23Jets"&gt;#Jets&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23Ravens"&gt;#Ravens&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23Steelers"&gt;#Steelers&lt;/a&gt; I eat &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23LaysPotatoChips"&gt;#LaysPotatoChips&lt;/a&gt; and drink &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23BudLight"&gt;#BudLight&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23sponsored"&gt;#sponsored&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23onthehouse"&gt;#onthehouse&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5956011928"&gt;37 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from web&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Companies that would sponsor tweets would have more success, spend less if they had 1 employee join Twitter and get in a real conversation &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5956225248"&gt;29 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from web&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I could tell you “I just ordered from Zappos and they have the best customer service” and then tell you that they paid me to say it. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5956268396"&gt;27 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from web&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Or, I’d say “I just ordered from Zappos, they have great customer service” because I want to. You’d follow and learn for yourself. I did &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5956484613"&gt;18 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from web&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In June I saw @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/JeffreyHazlett"&gt;JeffreyHazlett&lt;/a&gt; Kodak CMO at &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23140conf"&gt;#140conf&lt;/a&gt;, followed him, @&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/KodakCB"&gt;KodakCB&lt;/a&gt;, then was in their Twitter name contest. I like the brand now &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5956722026"&gt;8 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from web&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I actually don’t care if people get paid to tweet, I’d like to get paid for it too. I believe Twitter is a free country, so do what you want &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5956795069"&gt;5 minutes ago &lt;/a&gt;from web&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Thus, I can say I’m &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23sponsored"&gt;#sponsored&lt;/a&gt; whether I am or not, and so can you. We can even the playing field, neutralize ads, keep conversation going. &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/status/5956889060"&gt;1 minute ago &lt;/a&gt;from web&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I bolded my favorites and added comments&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Zok or Zokit&lt;/b&gt; (from blog post) Name suggestion: Zokit (rhymes with pocket) or just Zok My rationale is Z because you like it, ok for Kodak. If you go with the Zokit idea it’s meant to rhyme with Pocket. I’m leaning toward Zok because it’s one syllable, it has a hard, sturdy sound, but also sounds fun, like it’s your friend and like a tool you’d have on an adventure (Another idea is Zak) I like the idea of “give me the Zok” “where’s the Zok?” I think Zokit has a similar feel but it’s also the verb for using the Zokit “Look at that, let’s Zokit” Hope that helps  Addendum; Zok also contains ocular&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Zodiak:  How about Zodiak - It plays off Kodak and Kodiak - adventure - but versatile -no matter your sign, you’ll love it&lt;a href="http://twitter.com/CathleenRitt/statuses/3395132888"&gt;1 day ago &lt;/a&gt;from &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/"&gt;web&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Comment: I love Zodiak as a name for all the reasons I gave in the original tweet. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Zeek&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Zanto&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Zingo:&lt;/b&gt; Based on George Eastman’s almost vacation to Santo Domingo&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Zid &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Zar &lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Zeit: For capturing the moment&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Zapp&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Thanks, this was fun!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://cathleenritt.tumblr.com/post/170156709</link><guid>http://cathleenritt.tumblr.com/post/170156709</guid><pubDate>Sun, 23 Aug 2009 23:53:24 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>CathleenRitt #NameAKodak Compilation #2</title><description>&lt;p&gt;As of Sunday, August 23, 2009 at 10:55 PM EDT I have submitted 15 names to the Kodak #NameAKodak Competition.  This is the second compilation with my final 5 submissions.  The first 10 were compiled in my previous Tumblr post  &lt;a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/exit/link/3438113083')" href="http://tumblr.com/xnf2ru60j"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tumblr.com/xnf2ru60j"&gt;http://tumblr.com/xnf2ru60j&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;14. Zeit&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;15. Zapp&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The reason I suggested a name is usually in the tweet or in the one blog comment.  I added some comments to the tweets to expand on the ideas or to give more background.  The tweets are listed in backward chronological order.&lt;/p&gt;

Comment: Yes I actually went and read about Kodak founder George Eastman and how he got the idea for his film products from his experience buying a bulky camera for a planned vacation to Santo Domingo.  I thought that was a great story for naming the new video camera because I got the feeling it has a similar purpose as a product.  &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;li id="status_3397208136" class="hentry status u-CathleenRitt"&gt;

Comment: I wrote at length on the blog why I picked and liked this name.  For me it captures the feeling of sturdiness and fun and the idea of using it as a noun or a verb in your promotion.</description><link>http://cathleenritt.tumblr.com/post/167689459</link><guid>http://cathleenritt.tumblr.com/post/167689459</guid><pubDate>Thu, 20 Aug 2009 19:40:51 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Plaxo Plaints Part II - Backwards Chronological</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/CathleenRitt"&gt;CathleenRitt&lt;/a&gt; Jul 31, 02:34 PMRead @&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/emoltzen" class="username"&gt;emoltzen&lt;/a&gt; great, positive analysis of me vs Plaxo&lt;a target="_none" href="http://bit.ly/izSzX"&gt;&lt;a href="http://bit.ly/izSzX"&gt;http://bit.ly/izSzX&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/CathleenRitt" class="profile_image"&gt;&lt;img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_images/335265376/madmen_icon_normal.jpg" width="48" height="48" alt="CathleenRitt"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/CathleenRitt"&gt;CathleenRitt&lt;/a&gt; Jul 31, 02:09 AM@&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/johnmccrea" class="username"&gt;johnmccrea&lt;/a&gt; Finally those guys may well be in my address book but I don’t know them and when I search on name or email, I can’t find them&lt;u&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/rachelkmr" class="profile_image"&gt;&lt;img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_images/72425966/rachel1_normal.jpg" width="48" height="48" alt="rachelkmr"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/rachelkmr"&gt;rachelkmr&lt;/a&gt; Jul 31, 01:54 AM@&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/CathleenRitt" class="username"&gt;CathleenRitt&lt;/a&gt; Yes, I work at Plaxo; I know @&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/johnmccrea" class="username"&gt;johnmccrea&lt;/a&gt; has tried answering some of your issues but this may be easer by email (rachel@plaxo)&lt;u&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/johnmccrea" class="profile_image"&gt;&lt;img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_images/86123687/McCrea.Large_normal.jpg" width="48" height="48" alt="johnmccrea"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/johnmccrea"&gt;johnmccrea&lt;/a&gt; Jul 31, 01:52 AM@&lt;a href="http://tweetree.com/CathleenRitt" class="username"&gt;CathleenRitt&lt;/a&gt; That is not true.

You asked on June 4th too. Here are my unresolved complaints again&lt;a target="_none" href="http://tumblr.com/xnf1ycv7c"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tumblr.com/xnf1ycv7c"&gt;http://tumblr.com/xnf1ycv7c&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://cathleenritt.tumblr.com/post/118173432/plaxo-plaints"&gt;CathleenRitt - Plaxo Plaints&lt;/a&gt; [cathleenritt.tumblr.com]
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Plaxo Plaints&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These are my complaints to the Plaxo guy, edited for privacy and public consumption.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. This link: To accept this connection request, go to: &lt;a href="http://www.xosishga/"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.xosishga"&gt;www.xosishga&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think you should organize it the way Twitter does and have one link that says “to find out more about Mr. X click here:  Mr.XLInk”  and then another that says “to accept this request go here….”  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I frequently get requests from strangers - names I don’t recognize- and it makes me nervous the way that statement is phrased because I think I’m going to be automatically connected.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Auto Connection Request&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I went to the link for “Group With Dumb Name” it only had one person connected to it.  When I clicked on that guy’s picture, up popped “Name Deleted” who I never heard of.  There was a message that said “We have sent a connection request to Name Deleted” when I did nothing of the sort.  That is what I tweeted about and you said it can’t happen.  I just found Name Deleted in a search, here’s what it says:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Name Deleted&lt;br/&gt;Retired&lt;br/&gt;Location&lt;br/&gt;***Connection pending*** (Asterisks mine)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, I tried to find a way to rescind this connection request and couldn’t find it.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;3. Blocking Strangers:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This guy, “Scum Ball”  has sent me a request to connect several times.  I kept ignoring the request but he sends it again.  I looked for a way to block him and then finally reported him as an abuser which I really didn’t want to do.  If that’s how you want me to handle it, let me know.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;4. Stranger has just joined Plaxo Spam:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I got a special request to complain about this from another Twitter follower that followed our discussion on Twitter.  Here’s an example:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“We wanted to let you know that Random Contact just joined Plaxo.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Apparently he’s in my address book, but I have no idea who he is and I don’t care.  And there’s my big problem…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. Thus, Why I disparage Plaxo on Twitter:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a. Folders: The reason he’s in my address book is that the whole Plaxo set up with&lt;br/&gt;folders is so unintuitive and confusing that I ended up sucking all&lt;br/&gt;kinds of contacts into it from my former company over the course of a&lt;br/&gt;year.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;b. Sync Time Suck: Then I spent a day resyncing and resyncing because your definition of syncing was apparently different than my experience of it elsewhere. I&lt;br/&gt;ended up paying $50 for the service because that was the only way I&lt;br/&gt;had even the remotest probability of solving the problem.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;c. No Spam for Fee&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then of course, the $50 was automatically billed to me on the anniversary.  I&lt;br/&gt;don’t remember getting the spam email reminding me about the upcoming bill.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6. Conclusion&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a. Provide Utility: If I didn’t think Plaxo had the potential to be a good product and I hadn’t already loaded tons of contacts and sunk so much time into it, I wouldn’t be sending you this email.  I think Plaxo thinks it’s a social network, but I think Plaxo should be a useful utility.  It would be more useful to me as a mini CRM but it can’t do any of that kind of stuff easily as far as I can tell (create email lists etc.).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; And it’s too much of a Pain in the Ass.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Thank you for your concern and making the effort.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Cathleen Rittereiser (@CathleenRitt)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;1. This link: To accept this connection request, go to: &lt;a href="http://www.xosishga"&gt;www.xosishga&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think you should organize it the way Twitter does and have one link that says “to find out more about Mr. X click here:  Mr.XLInk”  and then another that says “to accept this request go here….”  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I frequently get requests from strangers - names I don’t recognize- and it makes me nervous the way that statement is phrased because I think I’m going to be automatically connected.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Auto Connection Request&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I went to the link for “Group With Dumb Name” it only had one person connected to it.  When I clicked on that guy’s picture, up popped “Name Deleted” who I never heard of.  There was a message that said “We have sent a connection request to Name Deleted” when I did nothing of the sort.  That is what I tweeted about and you said it can’t happen.  I just found Name Deleted in a search, here’s what it says:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Name Deleted&lt;br/&gt;Retired&lt;br/&gt;Location&lt;br/&gt;***Connection pending*** (Asterisks mine)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, I tried to find a way to rescind this connection request and couldn’t find it.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;3. Blocking Strangers:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This guy, “Scum Ball”  has sent me a request to connect several times.  I kept ignoring the request but he sends it again.  I looked for a way to block him and then finally reported him as an abuser which I really didn’t want to do.  If that’s how you want me to handle it, let me know.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;4. Stranger has just joined Plaxo Spam:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I got a special request to complain about this from another Twitter follower that followed our discussion on Twitter.  Here’s an example:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“We wanted to let you know that Random Contact just joined Plaxo.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Apparently he’s in my address book, but I have no idea who he is and I don’t care.  And there’s my big problem…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. Thus, Why I disparage Plaxo on Twitter:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a. Folders: The reason he’s in my address book is that the whole Plaxo set up with&lt;br/&gt;folders is so unintuitive and confusing that I ended up sucking all&lt;br/&gt;kinds of contacts into it from my former company over the course of a&lt;br/&gt;year.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;b. Sync Time Suck: Then I spent a day resyncing and resyncing because your definition of syncing was apparently different than my experience of it elsewhere. I&lt;br/&gt;ended up paying $50 for the service because that was the only way I&lt;br/&gt;had even the remotest probability of solving the problem.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;c. No Spam for Fee&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then of course, the $50 was automatically billed to me on the anniversary.  I&lt;br/&gt;don’t remember getting the spam email reminding me about the upcoming bill.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6. Conclusion&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a. Provide Utility: If I didn’t think Plaxo had the potential to be a good product and I hadn’t already loaded tons of contacts and sunk so much time into it, I wouldn’t be sending you this email.  I think Plaxo thinks it’s a social network, but I think Plaxo should be a useful utility.  It would be more useful to me as a mini CRM but it can’t do any of that kind of stuff easily as far as I can tell (create email lists etc.).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; And it’s too much of a Pain in the Ass.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Thank you for your concern and making the effort.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Cathleen Rittereiser (@CathleenRitt)&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://cathleenritt.tumblr.com/post/118173432</link><guid>http://cathleenritt.tumblr.com/post/118173432</guid><pubDate>Thu, 04 Jun 2009 20:46:43 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>CathleenRitt: Please ReTweet: I Hate Retweeting</title><description>&lt;h2 class="entry-title"&gt;&lt;a href="https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&amp;view=bsp&amp;ver=1qygpcgurkovy#11f4c4bea6c40d4d_item_2"&gt;CathleenRitt: Please ReTweet: If you don’t have anything interesting to say, don’t say anything at all and don’t copy and paste what another person said&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
