Why not be famous?

Danek Kaus gives a wonderful methodology that can help unlock secrets of the fame game. It's pretty clear that if you are doing something that will benefit from publicity you had better find a way to get the word out. Being an insider in the fame game means there is a system to use to get known and you use it often and well. I give Danek Kaus a good five stars for showing me how.
