As its two years down the track, and there have been a multitude of changes, particularly lately with how Google views sites with a large number of affiliate links. Does anyone have any feedback on how the BuyAt affiliate widgets have performed as I am looking to launch a new blog. Just came across this article.

What we are trying to do at BuyAt on the blog side is make it easier for the small website owner - e.g. by using widgets to update the offers on their site. On the social network side - the idea isn't that people will go profile surfing when they sit down to go shopping, but rather when they are profile surfing they might now buy things that there friends are recommending - things that they otherwise might not have bought. This is definitely an experiment and we will see how it goes. Early results are good though. Thanks Phil – you make a good point, and maybe I should have written a longer post.

Amazon do widgets for products too. As for WAYN - any evidence yet to show that people visit each others profile page when thinking of buying a product?
