What can you do with 333.33 Entrecard credits?

Entrecard is essentially a blog advertising network. It allows you to promote your site by dropping your card on any participating blog with the Entrecard widget. You can advertise on other blogs when you have gathered sufficient credits in your account. Best of all, its free and it gives you the ability to transfer credits between accounts. This allows blogs to use Entrecard as prizes for contests and charities. Entrecard describes itself as ”a 125×125 pixel image that is used both as an icon and as an advertisement within the site ( digital business card, if you will). A drop is when an existing Entrecard member visits another member’s site. When they do so, they have the opportunity to ‘drop’ their Entrecard onto the site, which places it in the ‘inbox’ of the site owner. The site owner can then see who has been visiting, and both parties also receive a small reward in the form of an Entrecard Credit (ec)”.
