Nanonetworks grabbing mindshare beside old media brands

Amy Langfield’s New York blog advertising network got a perceptive write-up today in MediaPost.

ANDREW RASIEJ, ONE OF THE challengers to New York City Public Advocate Betsy Gotbaum, has turned to the Internet to promote his candidacy in the Democratic primary this September. His campaign went live Monday on over 20 New York City blogs, NYTimes.com, New York Magazine’s Web site, and a handful of influential progressive political blogs.

Can you hear the drip, drip, drip of sales oozing away from corporate media? A group of NYC bloggers of all interests and political stripes have banded together and made buying/editing/monitoring an ad an affordable no-brainer… as easy and obvious as buying ads on venerable, ancient media brand-names. Amy says two blogs are joining, with others in the wings.

Meanwhile, Adam Kuban’s food blog advertising network is getting good traction with food bloggers… soon to be joined by two of the top foodblogs: Chocolate and Zucchini and 101 Cookbooks.
