I agree that we have indeed been somewhat trained from a general business perspective to avoid such an approach, and it has succeeded in convincing many to avoid it because too many perceive it might lead to "bad PR" but that's not necessarily true. Just check out the Pepsi Vs Coke ads, and how each portrays the other as the enemy. ;) Hey Andy, thanks for the comment.

Have to run, 1000 more comments to make before 5 pm. #2 Great Post! #3 Step two is brilliant. The concept of picking an enemy is obvious if we look at our blog as pure marketing. Yet from a business standpoint thinking in those terms is perhaps something we have been trained to avoid. But I totally agree, if a blog is to be interesting as well as informational, then like any good move or book a well developed “villain” and a polarizing struggle would only make it better. #1 Welcome new blogger.
