Here's an example (one of Kirk's ads) : http://community.tuliptools.com/index.ph...7.html#new
TulipNewsBot (our first nonhuman member) uses your store's RSS feed to create 5 ads from your RSS feed's latest store/venue listings and puts them in the Member Showcase Mall with links back to the item page on your store/venue (depending on the RSS feed the mall ads may or may not contain images--BlueJay's feed doesn't contain images)

There are also several marketing ideas scattered throughout the blogs/Web 2.0 forums: http://community.tuliptools.com/index.ph...,58.0.html
and the SEO/search engine forums have more ideas:

Thanks so much!!!! Looks like I have a ton of reading to do. One more thing if you don't mind me picking your brains a little... in your opinion... is it better to use a free site like blujay or ecrater for these feeds or would you recommend taking the plunge with a site of my own in which to build and promote since I am so new at this and I'm not quite sure what I'm doing. I am just now getting my feet wet in RSS but it seems to me that it would almost be a waste to do this on a site that you don't own...
...any suggestions are welcome! Thanks again to TulipTools and Mary for your time!
