This morning, the “Digital Goddess” Kim Komando covered MyPunchbowl as the “Cool Site of the Day.”

Being named a “Cool Site of the Day” by Kim is an honor. Kim Komando has had a nationally syndicated radio show and a popular website since the mid 1990’s. Her company, WestStar TalkRadio Network, now does a weekly show in more than 450 markets around the United States. In addition, she has a very popular newsletter: according to her site, more than 5 million newsletters are sent out every week! Her most popular newsletter is sent out every Saturday morning to coincide with her morning radio show. More than 550,000 newsletters were sent out with a link to MyPunchbowl this morning (and yes, thanks to some advanced warning we were prepared to handle the traffic– the site is still running very smoothly!)

I pitched Kim and her team a few times last year and again this week after our announcement of the new MyPunchbowl feature called “Buzz.” The folks at the Kim Komando show are friendly and personable. It was great dealing with them as they prepared to feature MyPunchbowl on the Kim Komando show. Special thanks to David S. and James M.

Here’s what Kim had to say about MyPunchbbowl this morning:

It’s Saturday morning and you have the entire weekend ahead of you. So what will you do with your time off? If you had thought about it, you could have arranged a nice dinner party. Or maybe you could have hit the town with friends. Dinner parties and other events are difficult to arrange. Maybe that’s why you didn’t plan one for this weekend. But MyPunchbowl takes the hassle out of party planning.

Once you register, you can pick a date for your event. Then, send out invitations and create a checklist. The site even lets you manage RSVPs. MyPunchbowl is certain you’ll arrange some great parties with its service. So it will also help you keep the memories alive. It integrates with Flickr and YouTube for photo and video sharing!

Thanks to Kim Komando and her team for covering MyPunchbowl. I look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship with Kim Komando and WestStar TalkRadio Network.
