This is one of the most trafficed billboards in the Western United States. I wish I had a picture (I wasn&#8217;t able to get my camera out in time).</p>
<p>It simply said:</p>
<p>Blogging</p>
<p>In huge type.</p>
<p>Delivered. In smaller type.</p>
<p>at&amp;t&#8217;s logo was there too. It turned out this is one of the new <a href="http://www.betanews.com/article/ATT_to_Kick_Off_Huge_Marketing_Blitz/1135882877">at&amp;t campaigns that they are spending a billion on</a>. Hey, they could have gotten much more hype if they had just given a billion away to bloggers. Heck, give me a million or two and I&#8217;ll even switch to your blog tool! Sorry, Matt! 🙂</p>
<p>Now I know the world is nutty.</p>
<p>More later, just had to tell you that in between interviews.</p>
