Yep.
I was a part of the "so-called" best course on social marketing which cost a whopping 2000$, and guess what?
It taught 1/6th of what 30dc 2007 taught, and 1/10 of what this year's 30d teaches, and to top it off, a whole 6 months later!
30dc is not only FREE, but it also teaches you the stuff everyone else will be teaching you 10 months later! If i were to put a price-tag on the 30dc, its real value would be around 5000$, give or take.
Now... that's the positive stuff. What i am worried about is the edge. I know this isn't the edge forum (which dissapeared). But... its kinda ironic, ed and dan give away their best stuff for free, but the stuff they charge for is lacking behind. The edge is 1/5 of what the 30dc is, in terms of what they give and when and how (delays, flakes, broken dates, non-completed and nevercompleting projects).
It teaches what the 30dc of next year will, so its like 6 months ahead, but... i dunno.
If you'd get the structure and instructional spirit of the 30dc and combine it with the edge, that would be the most perfect thing on the planet.
