Blog With Integrity hosted a free webinar on Nov. 10, 2009, featuring Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Associate Commissioner for Consumer Protection Mary Engle. The webinar discussed the new FTC guidance on disclosure and endorsements, which is critical information for bloggers who write about products and services plus the public relations and marketing people who hock them.

I have signed Blog with Integrity’s online pledge. I support clear disclosure of interests, treating others with respect, and taking responsibility for our words and actions. Right now, I am not taking any money for my blog posts and haven’t put any ads on my blog. If this changes in the future, the Blog with Integrity pledge will serve as my guidepost.
