    We were driving home yesterday from our Thanksgiving holiday, and I picked up a New York Times to read while my wife drove. I was reading an article about alternative advertising tactics, and was surprised to see my site listed as one of the places Budget Rent-A-Car bought ad space for their recent scavenger hunt. It was just a cursory mention, but I smiled the last several hundred miles. Here's the article if anyone is interested (reprinted by the Lakeland Ledger so you don't have to register):

    That's cool. Did you get much traffic from it?

    very...

    Since there is no hotlink, I saw very little extra traffic, that even when they profiled my site along with several other music blogs last summer.

    Did the Budget campaign itself bring extra traffic to your site?
